So what is in it?
N-Acetyl-Cysteine (commonly called NAC) is a form of the amino acid Cysteine that is naturally produced by the body. Because it enhances the production of the enzyme glutathione, one of the body's powerhouse antioxidants, it is a vital component of the detoxification pathways of the liver and intestines. N-acetyl cysteine remains the therapy of choice in the treatment of acetaminophen poisoning. In such cases, it prevents depletion of an important protective antioxidant, glutathione, which protects the liver from damage.
Milk Thistle 600 MG (80% standardized provides 480 mg Silymarin)
Silymarin is a flavenoid found in the herb milk thistle. Milk thistle has been the subject of over 100 clinical trials, primarily for liver disease. These numerous clinical studies show that Milk Thistle Silymarin supports and promotes liver function in healthy individuals. Milk Thistle Silymarin provides a protective, antioxidant effect on the liver, fortifying it against the undesirable effects of alcohol, smoke and harmful chemicals. The silybin component of silymarin has also been shown to have cholesterol-lowering effects.
R-ALA (R[+]-Alpha Lipoic Acid 200 MG)
R-Alpha-Lipoic Acid, a strong liver protectant, has been used successfully for the maintenance of liver health and as a treatment for several toxin-related illnesses. Alpha-Lipoic Acid has been used extensively in Europe for years as a non-toxic nutrient to treat various chemical overdoses such as mushroom poisoning, radiation poisoning and alcoholic hepatitis.
Another benefit of Alpha-Lipoic Acid may be its ability to elevate the levels of glutathione (GSH). Studies show that low levels of glutathione may cause oxidative stress, and cause inflammation and damage organs. Glutathione latches on to toxins and makes them water-soluble enough to be flushed out through your kidneys. The quickest way to rid the liver of toxins is to stimulate glutathione production.
