Benefits Of Each Ingredient N-Acetyl-Cysteine

• May support immune health, healthy detoxification, and increase antioxidant function (351,352).
• May support immune health via increases of L-Glutathione production (master antioxidant) (351,352).
• May support detoxification via enhanced toxin clearing from the liver (351,352).

Organic Turmeric

• May support antioxidant, cardio-protective, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, nephro-protective, hepato-protective, immunomodulatory, and anti-rheumatic effects (123).
• May reduce inflammation via decreases of inflammatory markers such as c-reactive protein, interleukin 6, tumor necrosis factor, and decreased cytokine production (123).
• May support joint health via decreases in connective tissue inflammation and improved pain in individuals with osteoarthritis (122).
• May support blood sugar regulation via increased pancreatic beta cell function and improved insulin sensitivity (121).
• May support cardiovascular and liver health via reduced accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGE), reduced lipid peroxidation, and improved vascular function.
• Curcumin may exhibit antioxidant activity via scavenging of superoxide anion (∙O2−∙) and hydroxyl radicals (∙OH) (scavenging of inflammation molecules) (118,119).
• Curcumin may modulate breast carcinogenesis through its effect on cell cycle and proliferation, apoptosis, senescence, cancer spread and angiogenesis (119).
• May target cancer growth pathways such as the NFkB, PI3K/Akt/mTOR, MAPK and JAK/STAT (119).

Organic Milk Thistle

• May support liver health, aids as an antioxidant, and reduces inflammation (345).
• May support liver health via high amounts of Silymarin which reduces lipid peroxidation and inhibits binding of toxins to the hepatocyte cell membrane receptors (345).

Green Tea Extract

• A potent polyphenolic antioxidant that may support blood pressure, insulin sensitivity, and metabolic health (25).
• Contains high concentration of ECGC that may reduce body fat mass, increase fat oxidation(burning) and increase caloric expenditure during exercise. (25).
• Potent anti-inflammatory compound that may support glutathione production and inhibition of pro-inflammatory markers (cytokines). (26).
• May reduce oxidative stress (chronic inflammation in the body) (26).
