The liver is the body's second largest organ and certainly the busiest, performing 500 separate tasks in the body. Its primary job-the everyday process of neutralizing toxins-produces an extraordinary number of free radicals, which can occasionally damage its own tissues. It is for this reason that the liver possesses the remarkable ability to regenerate itself. Despite its size -weighing in at about three pounds with the approximate volume of a football - we would never know it was there unless something went wrong with it.
But how do you know if your liver is sick? Look for signs like fatigue, 'overnight' allergies and chemical sensitivities, discomfort in the right-side of your abdomen, weight gain, poor skin, intolerance to alcohol and darkish urine.
In the US, 25,000,000 people are afflicted with liver disease or gallbladder disease (the galibladder stores bile produced by the liver). Every year, 43,000 people die from liver-related disorders.
HepatoGen (found in this section) has been designed to benefit anyone with hepatitis, cirrhosis or elevated liver enzymes from any cause. HepatoGen contains factors that have been shown in clinical research to have significant regenerative effects on the liver.
The most common cause of liver disease is excess alcohol. B 1, C and N-Acetyl Cysteine helps detoxify the breakdown products of alcohol. Intox Rx is an effective liver formula as well, with its principle ingredient, Kudzu Extract, known to help detoxify alcohol and prevent the desire for alcohol in alcoholics.
Mercury poisoning and mercury toxicity is becoming increasingly recognized as a serious problem - from mercury amalgams in our teeth, to mercury in immunizations, and in fish. For those desiring complete and thorough mercury detoxification, DMSA (dimercapto succinic acid) is a very specific and effective chelator for mercury.

Worn down by oxidative stress?
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA), also known as thioctic acid or simply lipoic acid, is a vitamin-like substance that has generated much interest in the last few years, especially with regards to both its ability to act as a powerful antioxidant and its role in energy production. Since it is difficult to obtain therapeutic amounts of Alpha Lipoic Acid through the diet alone, supplementation has become popular and it is now widely recommended by practitioners, particularly for those worn down by oxidative stress.

Healthy amounts of both choline and acetylcholine are absolutely necessary to keep your brain and cells functioning at peak performance. DMAE has been tested in short-term studies and shown to promote vigilance, alertness, and positive moods, which make it an especially promising prospective supplement for supporting long-term cognitive health and attention spans.

(R)-Lipoic Acid
90 caps (50mg)
Product Code: 3453 | |
Healthy cell rejuvenation
Directly involved with healthy cell rejuvenation, R-Lipoic Acid is rightly called the ‘mitochondrial antioxidant’. Lipoic acid is one of the most thoroughly investigated dietary supplements. R-Lipoic Acid is a more potent form — the more biologically active form — of alpha lipoic acid. As such, it offers more benefit with a lower dose. Lipoic acid serves to regenerate vitamins C and E, and helps maintain glutathione levels, a vital cellular antioxidant and liver protectant. It is a vascular and neuroprotective agent. It works throughout the body to support vascular integrity often compromised by elevated sugar and fats. It also promotes eye health and strong immune function.*

Indole-3-Carbinol
60 caps (250mg)
Product Code: 6041 | |
Encouraging estrogen to take the least harmful path
I3C is a naturally occurring phytonutrient found in cruciferous vegetables. I3C initiates a series of reactions in the body that culminates in the elimination of estrogen.* Researchers have observed that metabolism of estrogen occurs via one of two pathways: The ‘harmful’ metabolic pathway, 16 alpha-hydroxylation, or the ‘beneficial’ metabolic pathway, 2-hydroxylation. I3C encourages estrogen to take the least harmful path, a process that transforms estrogen into an antiestrogen.* Because testosterone converts to estrogen even in the male body, I3C may support individuals who take testosterone precursors.*

Should be part of any detoxification program
This product is intended to promote healthy bile production, secretion and flow to support proper elimination and enhance gall bladder health. This product should be part of any detoxification program because once the liver has detoxified endogenous or exogenous chemicals, they are delivered to the gallbladder to be eliminated with the bile into the feces. Compromised bile synthesis or secretion results in the impairment of: detoxification of chemicals, elimination of hormones and cholesterol, emulsification of dietary fats, release of pancreatic fluid with enzymes, alkalization of the small intestine, and health of the lower GI tract.*
