| HMC Hesperidin:
60 capsules. Hesperidin is the predominant flavonoid in lemons and oranges. While hesperidin itself is not very water soluble, Thorne’s patented hesperidin methyl chalcone (HMC) form is highly soluble, allowing for greater absorption of the molecule from the gastrointestinal tract. As with all flavonoids, HMC is an antioxidant. It stabilizes histamine-releasing mast cells and inhibits the cataract-producing enzyme aldose reductase. In addition, HMC has anti-inflammatory and blood vessel-stabilizing effects. Taken along with vitamin C, HMC was shown to significantly decrease the incidence of hot flashes in menopausal women. Although hesperidin methyl chalcone is included in Meta-Balance because of its ability to alleviate hot flashes, Meta-Balance also contains phytoestrogenic botanicals that might be contraindicated is some patients (those with a history of hormone-related cancers, for instance). Therefore, we offer hesperidin methyl chalcone as a stand-alone product. |

| 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. |

| Fractionated Pectin Powder:
5 ozs. Fractionated pectin, also known as modified citrus pectin (MCP), is a complex polysaccharide obtained from the peel and pulp of citrus fruits. Metastasis is one of the most life threatening aspects of cancer and the lack of effective anti-metastatic therapies has prompted research on the effectiveness of MCP in blocking the metastasis of certain types of cancers, including melanomas and prostate and breast cancers. MCP is rich in galactoside residues, giving it an affinity for certain types of cancer cells. These galactoside residues bind to lectins on cell membranes, preventing attachment of these unwanted cells. Fractionated pectin may also be able to kill prostate cancer cells. A recent in vitro study using Thorne’s Fractionated Pectin found it significantly induced apoptosis in human prostate cancer cells. Regular citrus pectin and the pH-modified product, Pecta-Sol, had little or no apoptotic activity. Modified citrus pectin (fractionated pectin) has been shown in animal studies to reduce metastases of certain tumor types, and should especially be emphasized at the time of surgical excision or biopsy. In two clinical studies, fractionated pectin has also been demonstrated to slow the rate of PSA rise in patients with metastatic prostate cancer. Each scoop of Fractionated Pectin Powder supplies 6.5 grams of fractionated pectin for easy high-gram dosing. |

| Oscap Plus:
180 capsules. Osteoporosis prevention should consist of more than just calcium supplementation. Oscap provides vitamins and minerals essential for optimal bone density. The calcium is bound to citrate-malate, one of the best-absorbed forms of dietary calcium available. Dosages of calcium (citrate-malate) as low as 500 mg daily have been shown to significantly reduce bone loss. Adequate magnesium intake maintains bone density by regulating parathyroid hormone secretion and facilitating active calcium transport. Like calcium, the magnesium is provided in the highly absorbable citrate-malate form. Oscap provides vitamin D3, which facilitates absorption of calcium; boron, which assists the body’s metabolism of vitamin D and estrogen; and vanadium, which may prevent osteopenia. Research indicates increased homocysteine levels interfere with the integrity of the collagenous bone matrix. Oscap contains methylcobalamin (the active form of vitamin B12), folinic acid and 5-methyl-tetrahydrofolate, (the active forms of folic acid), and pyridoxal 5’-phosphate (the active form of vitamin B6) for their function in maintaining low homocysteine levels. Equisetum arvense (horsetail) has been added as an excellent source of organic silica, an element found in high concentrations in healthy bones. In an effort to provide a bone-building formula that can be used by people taking blood-thinning medications, Oscap does not contain vitamin K. |

| Basic Prenatal:
90 capsules. Basic Prenatal is a comprehensive supplement formulated with the special needs of pregnancy in mind. Manufactured with none of the additives and coatings usually found in mainstream prenatal tablets, Basic Prenatal includes only the most bioavailable nutrients. High-potency multiple vitamins may sometimes be difficult for a woman to “stomach,” particularly during the first trimester of pregnancy. Therefore, Thorne does not include large amounts of the nutrients commonly known to cause stomach upset. Instead, we include these nutrients in their most active or absorbable forms for superior utilization. Among these are the active forms of several of the B vitamins – pyridoxal 5’-phosphate (B6), riboflavin 5’-phosphate (B2), folinic acid and 5-MTHF (active forms of folate), and adenosyl- and methylcobalamin (B12). Calcium in large doses may also cause stomach
upset. Therefore, a moderate dose in the highly absorbable citrate-malate form is used. Practitioners may want to supplement additional calcium and magnesium, particularly in the final trimester. And now basic Prenatal contains 1,000 IU of vitamin D in a full daily dose. Choose Basic Prenatal – the purest, highest quality prenatal on the market. Basic Prenatal may also be taken by nursing mothers. |

| Folacal:
60 capsules. Folinic acid – bioactive folate for healthy DNA and RNA synthesis. Administration of folinic acid bypasses several steps required of folic acid to become this bioactive form of folate. Folinic acid is a more metabolically active form of folate, capable of boosting levels of the coenzyme forms of the vitamin in circumstances where folic acid has little to no effect. Another benefit of folinic acid is that it is the form of folate responsible for proper DNA and RNA synthesis. Thorne supplies 800 mcg of folinic acid in each capsule of Folacal. |

| Indole-3-Carbinol:
60 capsules. Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) is a compound found in high concentrations in vegetables of the Brassica family, including broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, and cabbage. As a dietary supplement, I3C provides key nutritional support for liver detoxification. It also plays an important role in supporting female reproductive health. The majority of ingested I3C is absorbed in the small intestine as diindolylmethane (DIM), which is thought to be the primary contributor to I3C's beneficial properties. DIM has been shown to selectively bind to estrogen receptors and may act as an estrogen antagonist at physiological concentration. In the liver, I3C promotes the metabolism of estrogen and increases the ratio of 2-hydroxy estrogen to 16-hydroxy estrogen. The 2-hydroxy estrogens, less active than the 16-hydroxy estrogens, generally are eliminated more rapidly from the body. One prospective study found postmenopausal women with the most favorable urinary 2:16-hydroxyestrone ratio were most likely to maintain good female health. Preliminary studies have examined the efficacy, safety, and optimal supplementation of I3C. A 12-week phase I trial conducted on 17 women found a 66-percent increase in urinary 2:16-hydroxyestrone ratio with administration of 400 mg I3C daily. |

| MetaFem:
240 capsules. A complete supplement for women over 40. Women who are peri- or postmenopausal need vitamins and minerals for maintenance of bone density, as well as specific nutritional support for hormonal changes they experience. Meta-Fem is a complete dietary supplement for women of either peri- or postmenopausal age. It contains more calcium than our other multi formulas, as women need more absorbable calcium and other nutrients that support good bone health. Meta-Fem features calcium citrate-malate (shown to be significantly better absorbed than calcium carbonate or oyster shell calcium). Meta-Fem contains no iron, as the need for iron usually lessens as a woman enters menopause. If a woman in the perimenopausal period is experiencing abnormally heavy menses, it is recommended that she take Nutri-Fem or add a blood-building formula such as Ferrasorb. In addition, specific nutrients and botanicals have been added with the special needs of this population of women in mind. Wild yam provides phytoprogesterone-like effects, while dong quai has been used in traditional Chinese medicine, along with other herbs, for the control of vasomotor symptoms of menopause. Hesperidin methyl chalcone is also included because of its potential to ease hot flashes. While these additions to Meta-Fem may lessen the occurrence of uncomfortable symptoms associated with menopause, it has been designed to be used in conjunction with Meta-Balance for additional menopause support. Meta-Fem now contains more vitamin D3. |
