Amino-D-Tox

Helps support liver function Amino-D-Tox™ is a synergistic formula developed to promote healthy Phase II liver detoxification. The environment we live in is increasingly toxic. This overload on the body, induced by various toxic substances in the environment—pesticides, herbicides, chemical solvents, xenobiotics, and industrial chemicals of all kinds—reaches us through our food, water, the air we breathe, and is also transmitted through transgenerational inheritance via alterations to the epigenome. Additionally, toxins produced by our own metabolism add to this overload, as do toxins present in the intestinal tract, particularly when there is an imbalance in the intestinal microbial ecology. This high toxic load greatly increases the liver's detoxification function, which ensures the transformation of these chemicals into harmless molecules. These chemicals have the potential to produce excessive oxidative stress in the body and thus, over time, lead to chronic diseases. The end result: fatigue, lethargy, headaches, multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS), skin problems, chronic fatigue, neuromuscular disorders, and many others. Amino-D-Tox™ was developed to upregulate phase II detoxification. This formula is free of herbs, minerals, and B vitamins, as these are also thought to upregulate Phase I detoxification. Amino-D-Tox™ promotes Phase II detoxification of the liver, ensuring that this important physiological biotransformation function can occur optimally. This is particularly relevant for individuals with chemical sensitivities; they should consider supplementing with Amino-D-Tox™ to help upregulate these metabolic pathways before considering a more comprehensive detoxification protocol. Phase II detoxification requires amino acids, sulfur (sulfur-containing amino acids), and glutathione. Methionine, cysteine, and taurine are the three most common sulfur-containing amino acids. MSM also provides sulfur, as does glutathione (a compound of three amino acids).
