The liver is a complex organ with a variety of functions. It plays a major role in the detoxification of endotoxins (metabolically produced) and xenobiotics (environmental). Detoxification is a process that involves several different organs and occurs primarily in the liver. The liver achieves this through two distinct phases whereby it prepares the toxins for excretion. Some toxins are excreted through the bile and others by the kidneys. In phase 1, toxins are transformed into intermediate compounds which are then neutralized by phase 2 enzymes making them easier for the body to excrete.Features:• Comprehensive liver support formula, containing a synergistic combination of B-vitamins, minerals, botanicals and other nutraceuticals.• Contains milk thistle and other standardized extracts such as, turmeric, artichoke and picrorhiza.• Contains SelenoExcell® and NAC for glutathione peroxidase and glutathione production respectively. SelenoExcell® is the most researched form of selenium.• Provides methyl donors folic acid, B12 and choline.• Contains the antioxidants alpha lipoic acid and vitamin C.Benefits:• Milk Thistle extract has been documented in many scientific studies to provide support to the liver. Milk thistle helps protect liver cells from toxins and helps support liver detoxification processes.*• Contains vitamin B6 which is integral to amino acid and glucose metabolism in the liver.* • Folic acid, B12 and choline are methyl donors. All of these nutrients help contribute methyl groups to support liver detoxification. This process makes toxins easier to excrete.*• NAC serves as a precursor for the synthesis of glutathione in the liver. Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant, which, along with vitamin C and other nutrients helps provide antioxidant support to the liver Glutathione also helps support liver detoxification processes.*• Choline helps support fat metabolism in the liver, which helps support healthy liver function.*• Selenium as SelenoExcell® helps support glutathione peroxidase (powerful antioxidant enzyme) activity.* • The active curcuminoids in turmeric have been shown to be powerful antioxidants and also help support normal, healthy liver detoxification.*• Picrorhiza kurroa extract as Picroliv® from Sabinsa has been shown in studies to support healthy liver function.* • Alpha lipoic acid is a potent antioxidant and studies show it to be a powerful protector of normal, healthy liver function. • Artichoke and boldo extract help support the production and excretion of bile, which is one way the body excretes toxins.*• Burdock root, dandelion and yellow dock have traditionally been used as “cleansing” herbs which helps support liver, gall bladder and kidney elimination processes.*
Background:
Ultra Proteo-Zimes™ is a systemic enzyme formulation that contains a unique blend of enzymes that have been clinically studied to support numerous biological processes.* These enzymes are designed to be digested and absorbed in the small intestine and travel directly to the blood and are therefore not designed to assist in the digestive process itself; with the exception of some support of protein digestion. Once absorbed these enzymes go to work helping to break down specific protein molecules that may be directly involved in inflammation, poor circulation, pain and stiffness.* The enzymes in Ultra Proteo-Zimes™ help support healthy cardiovascular, immune and joint function as well help support tissue repair.*
Features:
Very high potency systemic enzyme formula.
Compares to the leading systemic enzyme brand.
Contains the highest commercial concentrations available of: chymotrypsin trypsin, pancreatin, papain and bromelain.
Enteric–coated tablet prevents the destruction of the enzymes by stomach acid.
Gluten free
Benefits:
Systemic enzymes support healthy joints, particularly joint mobility, by ensuring a normal, healthy response to inflammation.*
Supports healthy circulation through its fibrinolytic action (breaks down fibrin which may cause excess blood clotting) within the cardiovascular system.*
Supports a healthy immune system by limiting the production of cytokines (molecules that cause inflammation).*
Helps support the breakdown of proteins in the intestinal tract thereby aiding in the digestion and absorption of proteins.*
Ingredients
The digestion of food involves a complex system of organs, hormones, and enzymes. Many people have difficulty digesting foods, particularly as they age. The incomplete or partial digestion of foods can lead to uncomfortable side effects. Many of the indications are quite clear; intestinal gas, bloating, cramping, heartburn and diarrhea. However, some effects are not as clear, such as the poor utilization of food and even nutrient deficiencies. Superzymes is a multi-enzyme formula, containing both animal and plant derived enzymes, designed to support normal, healthy digestion of fats, proteins and carbohydrates.*
Features:
Contains betaine HCL, a form of hydrochloric acid.
Provides pepsin, bromelain and papain to help support protein digestion.
Ox bile extract provides bile to help emulsify fat preparing it for digestion.
Pancreatin pancreas extract provides various protein, carbohydrate as well as fat digesting enzymes.
Benefits:
Betaine HCL – A mild form of hydrochloric acid, a component of gastric juice. Betaine HCL helps support the digestive process, particularly the beginning of protein digestion, before food moves on to the intestines. Aging and medications such as antacids reduce the production/effectiveness of HCL. A reduction in HCL may exacerbate digestive problems due to the inefficiency to digest protein and other essential nutrients. HCL is especially important for the absorption of many nutrients including calcium, folic acid, B12, and iron. Besides nutrient deficiency a reduction in HCL slows down the digestive process, resulting in food remaining in the stomach for a longer period of time, often times leading to digestive discomfort.*
Pepsin – This is an enzyme which begins the process of protein digestion in the stomach. This proteolytic enzyme is designed to function in an environment where there is a low pH and high acid content such as the stomach.*
Bromelain –Derived from pineapple, is a proteolytic enzyme which helps break down protein.*
Papain – Derived from papaya provides an array of proteolytic enzymes to support protein digestion.*
Ox bile extract – helps emulsify fat, preparing it for digestion by fat digesting enzymes (lipases).*
Pancreatin – containing amylase (carbohydrate digestion), protease (protein digestion), and lipase (fat digestion). The combination of digestive enzymes in pancreatin has been shown to provide significant support to the digestion and absorption of essential nutrients.

Background:
The digestion of food involves a complex system of organs, hormones and enzymes. Many people have difficulty digesting foods, particularly as they age. The incomplete or partial digestion of foods can lead to uncomfortable side effects. Many of the indications are quite clear; intestinal gas, bloating, cramping, heartburn and diarrhea. However, some effects are not as clear, such as the poor utilization of food and even nutrient deficiencies. Ultra Veggie Enzymes is a comprehensive enzyme formula targeting the complete digestion of foods and their components, such as: proteins, carbohydrates, sugars, starches, fibers, fats; and even hard-to-digest foods such as: dairy products, grains and legumes.*
CereCalase® combines hemicellulase, beta-glucanase, and phytase to improve the bioavailability of nutrients that may be trapped within the fibrous matrix of plant cell walls. It breaks down phytic acid which can prevent absorption (limit the bioavailability) of iron, zinc, and other important minerals. This product disrupts plant cell walls to release trapped nutrients. It is beneficial for vegetarians and others who consume diets in high fruits and vegetables, and allows for optimal nutrition from fruits and vegetables.
Features:
All 15 enzymes in the formula are derived from non-animal sources.
Formulated with enzymes that are active even in the low pH (acid content) of the stomach.
Three types of protease enzymes are active at pH levels of 6.0, 4.5 and 3.0.
Made from patented and trademarked nzimes™ enzymes, manufactured by National Enzyme Company®.

Many of these enzymes enable a thorough and complete breakdown of a broad array of carbohydrates. This helps the body utilize food and helps reduce gas and bloating caused by undigested fibers, starches and sugars.*
Amylase, malt diastase and glucoamylase aid the digestion of starches such as pasta and potatoes.*
Lactase, invertase and alpha-galactosidase help to digest table sugar and the sugars in vegetables, whole grains, and legumes.*
Cellulase and CereCalase™ helps to break down the cell walls of grains, fruits, vegetables.*
Lipase enzyme is included to help with digestion of fats (lipids).*
SUGGESTED USE:
As a dietary supplement, adults take one (1)vegetarian capsule immediately prior to mealtime, or as directedby a health care professional.
Ingredients
Our CoEnzyme Q10 Softgel contains 100 mg of coq10 to support cardiovascular and immune system health. It is a natural antioxidant that can help combat oxidative stress and free radical damage. This product is designed to replenish the body's levels of CoQ10 and promote overall health.
ATP or adenosine triphosphate is the energy source used for all body processes. ATP is manufactured through a complex process in a tiny part of the cell known as the mitochondria. Within the mitochondria, CoQ10 plays a major role in the production of energy (ATP) and as an antioxidant to help protect the cell. In order to carry out these respective tasks, CoQ10 gets converted from the ubiquinone form, which is involved in the production of energy (ATP), to the ubiquinol form, which functions as an antioxidant. Age and health deficiencies, however, can affect the body’s ability to manufacture ubiquinol from the ubiquinone form. This can lead to sub-optimal levels which can reduce energy production and weaken the body’s immune and antioxidant defenses. Supplementation with CoQ10 in the reduced, ubiquinol form, supports the body’s antioxidant requirements to help combat free radicals, while helping it to maintain healthy ATP (energy) levels.†
Features
Ubiquinol from Kaneka, one of Japan’s leading manufacturers of CoQ10.
Reduced antioxidant form, no conversion necessary; more bioavailable.
Kaneka QH™ is stabilized through a patented process.
All trans form; no cis isomers.
Identical in structure to the CoQ10 produced in the body.
Processed through natural fermentation; not synthetic.
Easy to swallow soft gel capsule.
Gluten free.
Benefits
Provides a direct source of ubiquinol bypassing the need for conversion.
Several factors such as aging, certain medications and disease state can affect the conversion of ubiquinone to ubiquinol.†
Ubiquinol CoQH offers improved absorption and bioavailability, especially to individuals who fall into one of the above categories and have difficulty achieving optimal levels of this nutrient.†
High levels of energy (ATP) are necessary for the optimal function of all body systems. Ubiquinol plays an indirect role in providing support for the production of optimal levels of ATP.†
In addition to its role in energy production, the main role of ubiquinol (reduced CoQ10) is its ability to help neutralize free radicals by providing antioxidant support.†

Ingredients
Bromelain is obtained from the lower stems of the pineapple plant. It contains a combination of proteolytic enzymes that have been shown to support a healthy inflammatory response.* It is believed to work by supporting a healthy balance of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory prostaglandins.* Bromelain is also effective at breaking down large proteins (proteolytic activity) that when absorbed intact and travel through the bloodstream may cause an allergic response by the body. Some clinical evidence also demonstrates bromelain’s ability to help support a normal rather than excess production of mucus along the respiratory tract.*
Features:
•New higher potency, 2400 GDU per gram, providing 960 GDU per capsule.
•GDU stands for Gelatin Digestion Units. This is one standard measurement for digesting protein.
•Research indicates bromelain remains intact (instead of being broken down in the digestive tract) and therefore available for use throughout the body via the bloodstream.
•Vegetarian
Benefits:
•Proteolytic enzyme (protein digestion) from pineapple.*
•Supports a normal, healthy inflammatory response.*
•Some studies have shown bromelain helps support a healthy inflammatory response in damaged tissue.*
•Bromelain has been shown to help break down potential allergens (proteins) before they are absorbed in the intestinal tract and into the bloodstream, potentially causing an allergic reaction.*
•Bromelain has been shown to help support normal platelet aggregation (blood clotting). This can help provide support for the cardiovascular system.*
