5-MTHF (5-METHYLTETRAHYDROFOLATE) by Thorne Research

5-MTHF is the most biologically active form of the B-vitamin folic acid. 5MTHF works in concert with vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin) in the conversion of homocysteine to methionine, which provides methyl groups for numerous other biochemical reactions in the body. Because of this, folate supplementation supports cardiovascular health, nervous system function, normal cellular proliferation, and gingival health. Folate supplementation during pregnancy has been shown to reduce the risk of neural tube defects.

Research has shown a subset of individuals do not efficiently convert folic acid from the diet or supplements to active 5-MTHF, due to genetic enzyme deficiencies. Research suggests 5-MTHF is a more efficient form of supplementation than inactive folic acid in these and other individuals.

Calcium Magnesium Citramate by Thorne Research

calcium and magnesium as the superior citrate-malate chelates

Product Information

Calcium and magnesium are the essentials: anthropological evidence indicates humans were high consumers of calcium until the onset of the Agricultural Age 10,000 years ago. Current calcium intake is one-quarter to one-third of our evolutionary diet, indicating we may not be consuming enough dietary calcium. Recent analysis of large numbers of previously conducted studies on calcium and bone mass demonstrate that supplementation of 500 to 1,500 mg of a well-absorbed form of calcium daily promotes bone mass in adolescents, young adults, older men, and postmenopausal women.*

Magnesium is present in all cells of the body and is involved in over 300 enzymatic processes, including energy production.* Magnesium is essential for maintaining normal bone density, normal cardiac rhythmicity, normal pulmonary function, and normal blood glucose regulation.* Other body functions requiring magnesium include nerve conduction, methyl-group transfer, conversion of pyridoxine to pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (the active form of vitamin B6), production of energy, and muscle contraction.* Magnesium supplementation appears to be a significant support to maintaining already normal bone density.*

The appropriate intake ratio of calcium to magnesium is undecided, with some authors in the scientific literature supporting a 2:1 ratio (twice as much calcium than magnesium) and others recommending a 1:1 ratio. Thorne Research offers several formulas with varying ratios of calcium to magnesium to meet individual needs.

Cal-Mag Citramate provides a 1:1 ratio of calcium and magnesium as the well-absorbed citrate-malate chelate.* Magnesium and calcium appear to work in tandem in the body, with both necessary for many functions, including maintaining normal blood pressure, muscle contraction, and menses.* In addition to calcium, magnesium is essential for helping maintain normal bone density.* Magnesium depletion impairs mineral homeostasis by reducing the activation of vitamin D.*

Ingredients

One Capsule Contains:

Calcium (as Calcium Citrate-Malate) 80 mg.

Magnesium (as Magnesium Citrate-Malate) 80 mg.

Other Ingredients: Hypromellose (derived from cellulose) capsule. May contain one or more of the following hypoallergenic ingredients to fill space – Leucine, Silicon Dioxide.

Coleus Forskohlii by Thorne Research

decreases histamine release by increasing cAMP

An Ayurvedic herb, Coleus forskohlii, commonly known as Indian Coleus, is a tropical perennial plant related to the typical coleus species and grows in subtropical areas in India, Burma, and Thailand. Coleus forskohlii root contains the constituent forskolin, which increases cellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) concentrations in the body.* Coleus extracts, and the subsequent increase in cAMP, can help decrease histamine release from mast cells and basophils, with concomitant benefits to respiratory and nasal support.* Studies suggest the increased cAMP stimulated by Coleus extracts relaxes respiratory airway smooth muscle, helping to maintain healthy respiratory function. Coleus extracts also help maintain healthy skin, especially in cases of dry, flaky skin.

In vitro studies show Coleus may stimulate fat metabolism and promote weight management in individuals with low cAMP production.

Suggested Use: One capsule two to three times daily, or as otherwise directed by a health-care practitioner.

Cortine by Thorne Research

whole adrenal and adrenal cortex in one capsule for healthy adrenal function

In today's world it seems as though everyone is functioning in "high-stress" mode. Dietary habits fraught with caffeine and refined sugars, and lifestyle habits that deprive us of adequate rest and exercise, can take their toll on the adrenal glands. Cortisol, a hormone produced by the adrenal glands in times of stress, is important in regulating blood sugar and maintaining healthy immune function, fertility, and overall physical and mental stamina. Usually the adrenal glands can cope with the demands of everyday life. However, in an environment of chronic stress the adrenal glands can become overworked, which can potentially lead to problems throughout the body.

Whole adrenal and adrenal cortex tissue extracts play a valuable role in supporting healthy adrenal glands - which helps maintain immune function and a feeling of energy.* Glandulars also help support healthy cortisol levels.* Cortine combines the overall nutritive properties of pure, whole adrenal tissue and adrenal cortex tissue for focused support and healthy adrenal function.

Liquorice remains one of the most important herbs in traditional Chinese Medicine. Among its most consistent and important uses are as a soothing agent in the digestive and urinary tracts.

Bentonite clay is an excellent intestinal cleanser. Once in the gut the clay generates an electrical charge which draws toxins, impurities and heavy metals towards it, locking them within its structure until expelled.

Indole-3-Carbinol, SF749 by Thorne Reserch

To support estrogen metabolism

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.*
