Insulin Resistance
DCI 500mg NBX Wellness 60 caps
$65.00D-Chiro Inositol (DCI) is a sugar alcohol complex that is naturally produced by the body. It is a member of the B vitamin family and plays an essential role in the pathways of mitochondria and energy in the cells to generate energy from sugar. When you eat food, sugar is extracted and absorbed into the blood. Insulin is released by the pancreas in response to the sugar, telling the cells in your body to either burn the sugar for energy or store it as fat for later.
Chromium Picolinate 500 mcg 60 capsules
$15.00Chromium is a trace mineral that plays an important role in glucose and lipid metabolism, in part by maintaining healthy enzyme activity. Optimal levels of chromium promote healthy carbohydrate and fat utilization.
Benfotiamine
$25.00This fat-soluble form of vitamin B1 has higher bioavailability compared to water-soluble forms. Benfotiamine inhibits several pathways involved in glucose-induced vascular changes and supports healthy neuron function. Clinical studies show that benfotiamine supports healthy neurological structures and glucose metabolism, limiting the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Benfotiamine may also be a preferred choice after bariatric surgery as thiamine deficiency is frequently found in these people due to malabsorption.
L-Glutamine 1000mg
$26.00L-Glutamine, the most abundant amino acid in the body, is an important constituent of proteins and participates in many key metabolic processes. Glutamine helps to regulate acid/base balance, maintains nitrogen balance, and acts as a nitrogen reservoir for the production of other amino acids. It also serves as an important energy source for certain cell types, such as gut, immune, and kidney cells. Glutamine is known to support gastrointestinal integrity, normal immune system function, and the preservation of muscle tissue.
Ultra Pure Thai Ginseng
$25.20Thai ginseng (Kaempferia parviflora) root is a unique SE Asian botanical that is used for antioxidant support. Thai ginseng contains a powerful antioxidant compound called 5,7-dimethoxyflavone, that helps to support metabolism and aging through improved cellular energy production, improved blood glucose/insulin control and weight management, improved physical performance,and improved neurological/cognitive support. Thai ginseng has SIRT-1 upregulation activity that is 4-5x stronger than resveratrol.
Thai ginseng is reported to :
- Antiaging activity – the 5,7 DMF polymethoxyflavones are 3-4x more powerful than resveratrol at SIRT-1 regulation, AMPK upregualtion
- Improve mitochondrial function and biogenesis, improves energy production
- Improve blood glucose and insulin regulatlin – PPAR gamma upregulation, GLUT 4 regulation, SIRT1 regulation; downregulates AGEs (advanced glycation end products)
- Improve body weight management – upregulates UCP1 brown tissue thermogenesis
- Antiinflammatory/antioxidant activity– increases SOD, catalase, glutathione
- Support performance and exercise recovery; supports muscle strength and metabolism
- Neurological support – neuroprotection from glutamate excitotoxicity; decreases microglial activation and neuroinflammation
- Reproductive support – inhibits PDE-5, improves blood flow to penis; increased virility
- Antiviral activity – SIRT1
Ultra Glucose Control Chocolate – 1LB
$69.00Monounsaturated fats to support healthy blood lipid levels.
