Energy and metabolic support* Clinical Applications: Source of carbohydrates to support energy production* Promotes healthy weight gain* Helps to maintain performance and promote endurance in extended (> 60 min), high-intensity exercise* May contribute to improved muscle recovery, reduced muscle stiffness, soreness, and fatigue postexercise* Description:  D Ribose is a natural 5 carbon sugar found in all living cells. The body naturally produces d ribose, which begins the metabolic process for cellular energy production via adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The production of ATP, either through the synthesis of new energy or via the salvage pathway of energy preservation, is rate-limited by the availability of d ribose. d-Ribose supplementation can support increased metabolic demands, reduce exercise recovery time, improve cardiac function, improve muscle recovery, reduced muscle stiffness, soreness, and fatigue post exercise. *

Description:  SCIENCE-BASED MALE FERTILITY SUPPORT* Male infertility due to impaired semen parameters is a global medical concern affecting couples of reproductive age. Amongst various disorders causing male infertility, idiopathic oligoasthenoteratozoospermia remains the most common etiology for which a specific therapeutic option is yet unavailable. Various environmental and lifestyle factors contribute to male infertility, especially resulting in elevated oxidative stress. Increasing evidence suggests the effective role of nutritional supplementation in improving sperm quality and mitigating infertility. Male Fertility SAP is a synergistic formulation of key evidence-based nutraceuticals that can help improve sperm quality and support sperm-cell health. Male Fertility SAP helps support prostate health, maintain cardiovascular health and healthy glucose metabolism.*  

Clinical Applications Provides a source of coenzyme Q10, an antioxidant involved in supporting cellular energy production and mitochondrial synthesis of ATP.* Can be useful to improve exercise endurance.* Can help ameliorate mitochondrial abnormalities by maintaining mitochondrial pH buffering capacity, electron transport chain activity, and ATP generation.* Can be used to enhance healthy inflammatory responses and antioxidant status. Description:  SCIENCE-BASED FORMULATION FOR MITOCHONDRIAL SUPPORT* Mito SAP is a synergistic formulation containing key nutraceuticals that have been the focus of scientific research to improve mitochondrial health. Mitochondria, the “powerhouse of the cell,” are crucial organelles for cell survival and death, involved in important functions including oxidative phosphorylation, ATP synthesis, signaling, and proliferation. Mitochondrial dysfunction caused by oxidative stress and aging has been implicated in a variety of diseases such as CVD, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancers. Mito SAP contains a combination of active ingredients, namely N-acetyl-l‑carnitine, quercetin, R‑α‑lipoic acid, grapeseed extract, thiamine, and coenzyme Q10 (as PQ10; pea-emulsified coenzyme Q10 for enhanced absorption) of the highest quality and efficacy for optimal mitochondrial support. Studies on the nutraceuticals present in Mito SAP suggest various beneficial effects including enhancement of mitochondrial biogenesis, protection of mitochondria against oxidative damage, and enhanced exercise endurance. In addition, studies have shown that these key nutraceuticals ameliorate mitochondrial abnormalities by maintaining mitochondrial pH-buffering capacity, electron-transport chain activity, and ATP generation. Overall, scientific evidence suggests that these vital ingredients could be beneficial for the regulation of mitochondrial function and energy metabolism, and may be useful to promote cardiovascular, neurological, and retinal health.*

Clinical Applications: Can help manage allergies* Can be used support respiratory health.* Description:  SCIENCE-BASED BIOFLAVONOID FOR ALLERGY AND INFLAMMATION MANAGEMENT Quercetin is a bioflavonoid found in onions, apples, black tea, and grapefruit. Quercetin has antioxidant activity and is used in herbal medicine as a blood vessel protectant. Mast cells contribute to the inflammatory process in allergic reactions, where immunologic stimulation leads to degranulation of the mast cell, as well as to the generation of numerous cytokines and inflammatory mediators. Many studies have explored the effect of quercetin for managing allergies, as it has been shown to inhibit mastcell secretions and has the ability to downregulate histamine production via inhibition of the enzyme histidine decarboxylase (HDC) mRNA from human mast cells.  Bromelain is a proteolytic digestive enzyme derived from the stem of the pineapple plant. Bromelain has been found to counteract the fibrin and kinin pathways, which stimulate plasmin that blocks endogenous arachidonic-acid mobilization and reduces prostaglandin synthesis, which reduces localized inflammation and edema. Studies suggest that bromelain may also enhance the effectiveness of quercetin.*
