Thermophase Detox Essentials is a comprehensive formula that assists gut health, liver and cellular detoxification processes. Conjugating amino acids, Milk Thistle and Green Tea for phase II detoxification and protection against reactive toxins. Thermophase Detox Essentials contains low-reactive, non-GMO pea protein for improved patient compliance.
Clinical benefits:
- Glutamine may help to protect gut integrity and permeability, with zinc to reduce mucosal permeability, and gram negative bacterial translocation.
- Taurine and the Traditional Chinese Medicine herb, Gardenia, have been shown to support the liver.
- Taurine may reduce LPS activation of liver Kupffer cells.
- Arabinogalactans from Larch provide prebiotic benefits to stimulate short chain fatty acid production, and lactobacilli and bifidobacterium growth as part of a healthy gut microbiome.
- Milk Thistle has been used in Western herbal medicine to assist the detoxification capacity of the liver.
- Silymarin inhibits beta-glucuronidase activity to assist the elimination of metabolites conjugated through phase II detoxification.
- Green Tea polyphenols also stimulate the activity of hepatic detoxification enzymes, thereby promoting detoxification of xenobiotic compounds.
- Antioxidants, such as selenium, zinc and Green Tea, help protect against potential free radical damage from reactive toxins formed during phase I.
- Cysteine and glutamine help synthesise glutathione, a major endogenous antioxidant antioxidant, to help protect cells against reactive hydroxyl free radicals.
- Pea protein is a natural source of glutamine and glycine.
- Green Tea has demonstrated high antioxidant activity with an ability to scavenge hydroxyl and superoxide radicals.
- It is hypothesised that Green Tea catechins modulate the expression of antioxidant enzyme (AE) genese via decreasing the oxidative stress in cells.
- The low-reactive, non GMO high quality pea protein in Thermophase Detox Essentials supplies essential amino acids and nutrients to support major phase II conjugation pathways. Phase II detoxification pathways are dependent upon adequate substrates to carry out conjugation reactions.
- 15 phase II pathways transform intermediate metabolites formed from phase I detoxification to be more water-soluble and therefore more easily excreted in the bile and urine.
- Thermophase Detox Essentials with taurine, and the TCM herb, gardenia, assists in promoting the body's elimination of wastes via the liver and bile.
