| Ferrasorb:
60 capsules. Microcytic anemia is related to an iron deficiency, whereas, macrocytic anema is associated with deficiencies of folate and/or vitamin B12. Despite these diverging diagnoses, studies indicate using a combination of folate, B12, and iron is superior to any one nutrient alone. Each of these nutrients is dependent upon the other for proper red blood cell formation. Ferrasorb combines the two active forms of vitamin B12 and folate, adenosyland methylcobalamin and folinic acid and 5-methyl-tetrahydrofolate, respectively, with well-absorbed iron picolinate – for a superior blood-building (hematinic) formula. Individuals who might benefit from a hematinic formula include those with a greater need for iron, individuals who tend to lose iron chronically, and those who are not absorbing it well – teenage girls, pregnant women, women of childbearing age (particularly if they have heavy menses), individuals with malabsorption syndromes (Crohn’s disease or Celiac disease), elderly patients with low hydrochloric acid secretion, and individuals with renal failure. |

| Glycine:
250 capsules. Clinically, glycine is an important amino acid for relaxation, detoxification, and normal muscle function. Glycine plays a key role in maintaining healthy function of the central nervous system (CNS). Along with GABA, glycine is considered one of the most important inhibitory neurotransmitters in the CNS — particularly in the brainstem and spinal cord. Research indicates this amino acid may be beneficial in management of seizures, hyperactivity, manic (bipolar) depression, and schizophrenia. One study involving 22 schizophrenic patients, who were initially unresponsive to conventional treatments, observed that adding glycine to their ongoing antipsychotic medication resulted in significant reduction of their symptoms. More research concerning the effects of glycine on schizophrenia is underway. Other studies have shown that glycine may also help improve memory retrieval loss in those that suffer from a wide variety of sleep-depriving conditions, including schizophrenia, Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, jet lag, and overwork. The benefits of glycine are not just limited to the CNS. Glycine plays a key role in phase II liver detoxification, via conjugation directly with certain toxins and through conjugation with glutathione, which is composed of three amino acids — cysteine, glycine, and glutamic acid. In addition, glycine is necessary for the production of healthy DNA and RNA, and therefore plays an important role in ensuring healthy formation and function of cells throughout the body. Glycine is one of three amino acids (along with arginine and methionine) needed for the synthesis of creatine, which in turn supplies energy to muscle and nerve cells. High concentrations of glycine are found not only in the muscles, but in the skin and other connective tissues as well. Approximately 30 percent of collagen is composed of glycine. Consequently, without glycine the body would not be able to effectively repair damaged tissues. Glycine plays an important role in maintaining a healthy digestive system. It helps regulate the synthesis of the bile acid used to digest fats. Glycine also helps the body in regulating glucose utilization for energy. Consequently, glycine supplementation may be useful for treating symptoms characterized by low energy and fatigue, such as hypoglycemia, anemia, and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). |

| Perfusia-SR:
180 capsules. Perfusia-SR is a sustained-release formulation of the amino acid L-arginine. Supplementation with L-arginine improves the production of nitric oxide by vascular endothelial cells, which increases vasodilation while inhibiting platelet and monocyte adhesiveness, resulting, for example, in enhanced cardiovascular health and erectile function. This unique, sustained-release product provides for improved long-term blood levels with twice daily dosing. |

| L-Carnitine:
60 capsules. Essential for skeletal and cardiac muscle support. The amino acid L-carnitine is a cofactor required for the metabolism of fats and for their subsequent transport into the mitochondria, where they undergo oxidation and produce energy. Those prone to being deficient in L-carnitine and for whom supplementation might be advisable include individuals on dialysis and individuals who are HIV-positive. Supplementation with L-carnitine appears to be of benefit in supporting general wellbeing, appetite control, cardiovascular health, carbohydrate metabolism, reproductive health, and muscle health. L-carnitine has also been shown to benefit athletic performance. For example, studies have shown improvements in running speed, decreased average oxygen consumption, heart rate, and lactic acid, and increased maximal oxygen uptake. Studies on high-repetition exercise found improved muscle recovery after L-carnitine supplementation. L-carnitine is probably best known for its cardiac benefits. In the heart muscle, L-carnitine facilitates fatty acid use, resulting in support of rhythm, optimization of myocardial blood flow, and increased cardiac output. Studies also show L-carnitine provides benefit to cardiac tissue.
Carnitine also helps maintain blood lipid levels, with research support in maintaining already normal levels of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, lipoprotein(a) (associated with LDL cholesterol), and triglycerides. |

| Methylcobalamin:
60 capsules. active vitamin B12 for healthy methylation. Methylcobalamin (an active form of vitamin B12) is essential for recycling homocysteine and the formation of methyl donors involved in cardiovascular function, sleep, blood cell formation, and nerve function. Most vitamin B12 supplements contain cyanocobalamin; however, the liver must first “detoxify” the cyanide molecule and attach a methyl group to form methylcobalamin from the cyanocobalamin. Methylcobalamin is already in the biologically active, tissue-ready form. Evidence indicates the body utilizes methylcobalamin more efficiently than it does cyanocobalamin. Research shows the quantity of cobalamin detected following a small oral dose of methylcobalamin is similar to the amount following administration of cyanocobalamin; but significantly more cobalamin accumulates in liver tissue following administration of methylcobalamin. Human urinary excretion of methylcobalamin is about one-third that of a similar dose of cyanocobalamin, indicating substantially greater tissue retention. |

| Potassium Citrate:
90 capsules. A highly-absorbable form of potassium. Potassium citrate helps prevent precipitates in the urine. In addition, potassium citrate is effective for alkalinizing the urine. Herbs such as goldenseal and uva ursi that support a healthy urinary tract – and are ingredients in Thorne’s Uristatin – contain natural constituents that work most effectively in an alkaline urine. Drug-Nutrient / Botanical Interactions of Potassium: Several prescription medications induce potassium depletion, including aspirin, laxatives, trisalicylate (a pain medication), colchicine, corticosteroids, non-potassium sparing diuretics (such as thiazide diuretics), and sodium bicarbonate. The botanical Glycyrrhiza glabra can result in potassium loss. Although it more commonly occurs with long-term use of more than 1 gram glycyrrhizin daily, some individuals can experience signs of potassium loss with lower amounts. ACE inhibitors (captopril, enalapril, ramipril, etc.) produce potassium retention by inhibiting aldosterone in the adrenals. Potassium supplementation concurrently with ACE inhibitors and potassium-sparing diuretics (spironolactone, amilroide, triamterene, etc.) should be approached with caution to prevent excessive potassium levels in the body. |

Both Potassium-Magnesium Citrate and Potassium-Magnesium Aspartate offer these two important intracellular cations in one capsule. In addition, citrate chelates can benefit individuals with a propensity for kidney stones, while aspartate chelates may provide relief of fatigue. |
