How It Works

Milk Thistle

Milk thistle helps support the liver's detox functions, helping the liver to efficiently emulsify fat, break down trapped particles, and remove them from the body. Milk thistle contains the active constituent called silymarin, which has been the subject of numerous liver health studies. Silymarin is a natural antioxidant shown to support glutathione, a crucial component of the liver detox pathway. Silymarin may help stabilize cellular membranes, preventing the intake of some toxins and subsequent tissue damage.

Chlorella

Chlorella is a freshwater green algae noted for its high chlorophyll content. It is also rich in protein, dietary fiber, and various vitamins and minerals. Chlorella supports the body's detoxification processes by modulating antioxidant enzymes, encouraging elimination, and helping to prevent toxins from being reabsorbed. Chlorella is considered highly resistant to heavy metals and is widely used as a supplement for heavy metal elimination.

Algin

Algin, or sodium alginate, supports a healthy intestinal system as it facilitates detoxification. Algin is an important carbohydrate material extracted from brown seaweed. Algin contains non-digestible mucilage (a type of fiber) that absorbs water, creating a gel that soothes the intestines and binds to toxins and heavy metal ions. Alginic acid, which is converted to sodium alginate, helps maintain the mucus linings of the GI tract. Its bulking action also encourages normal elimination.

Apple Pectin

Apple fruit pectin is a type of water-soluble dietary fiber that helps to produce a softer stool and supports a healthy bowel. When mixed with liquid, apple pectin forms a gel that can bind to toxins and heavy metals, promoting their elimination in the stool. Apple pectin also chemically prevents or reduces the absorption of certain substances into the bloodstream. Plus, apple pectin is a prebiotic that helps stimulate the growth and activity of beneficial bacteria in the gut.

NAC

NAC (N-Acetyl-l-Cysteine) is a powerful antioxidant that is essential for the body to mount a defense against free radicals. It also helps detoxify the body of harmful toxins, chemicals and pollutants. NAC increases levels of glutathione, a powerful free-radical scavenger. Plus, NAC helps protect the liver and provides sulfur groups that support immune function.

L-Methionine

L-methionine is a sulfur-containing amino acid and powerful detoxifier of heavy metals. L-methionine is involved in many detoxifying processes. It provides sulfur, which protects cells from pollutants, slows cell aging, and is essential for absorption and availability of certain minerals such as selenium and zinc.

Magnesium

Magnesium has gained real popularity for its soothing effect on the bowel. In fact, magnesium citrate is widely used as a bowel prep agent prior to a colonoscopy procedure. And several studies show that it is as effective as other regimens in that regard. Magnesium helps soften stools and promotes bowel elimination.

Kelp

Kelp is a type of brown algae naturally rich in trace minerals, including potassium, iodine and zinc. Iodine is an essential trace mineral that supports glandular and kidney function, metabolism and energy levels. Kelp helps maintain the healthy balance of metals and minerals in the body. It may also assist the body's natural detoxification processes to help remove heavy metals from the body.

Alpha Lipoic Acid

Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) is a powerful antioxidant. It acts as a heavy metal chelator that supports the removal of toxins and protects the liver. ALA also helps regenerate other antioxidants in the body and supports the body's production of the most important antioxidant, glutathione.
