Dysfunctional cellular metabolism, diminished mitochondrial capacity, and conditions of oxidative stress influence the development and progression of many conditions including cardiovascular, metabolic, and neurodegenerative. These factors are also hallmarks of biological aging.1-4* Diets high in plant […]

Fatty acids are essential to physiological function, health, and homeostasis. They provide the substrate for lipids, one of the three main components of biological structure (along with proteins and carbohydrates). Essential for healing and repair, fatty […]

Metabolism of hormones, xenobiotics, endogenous and exogenous compounds are carried out in the liver by enzymatic activity. Natural compounds can enhance hepatic detoxification integrity naturally by supporting both phase I and phase II liver detoxification pathways […]

Metabolism consists of the anabolic (building up) and catabolic (breaking down) phases. Anabolic processes consume energy to build complex molecules from simpler ones. Enzymes and coenzymes mediate all metabolic processes that transform nutrients into building blocks […]

During times of heavy stress, trauma, debility, recovery from illness or from strenuous exercise and athletic training, the body requires larger amounts of high-quality protein to reduce muscle breakdown, maintain lean muscle mass, increase cellular energy […]

The nutritional agents described in this paper provide nutritional support for recovery from the degenerative, catabolic effects of aging, intense physical exercise, surgery, or chronic disease. These vital nutrients enhance the body’s ability to overcome the […]
