Natural Hormone Balance

Chrysin

• Supports immune health, cardiovascular health, and increased testosterone (209).

• Supports immune health via suppression of pro-oxidant enzymes, scavenging free radicals, and reduced inflammatory cytokines (markers of inflammation) (209).

• Supports cardiovascular health via increased bioavailability of endothelial nitric oxide, reduced prevalence of atherosclerosis, reduced thrombogenesis (blood clotting) and reduced vascular (blood vessel) inflammation (209).

• Supports increased testosterone via blocking of androgens into estrogen (210).

Resveratrol

• Supports blood sugar regulation, healthy blood pressure, and cardiovascular/immune health (84, 85, 86).

• Reduces level of oxidative stress markers (inflammation markers), systolic blood pressure, and insulin resistance (84).

• Supplementation with ≥150 mg/day supports decrease in systolic blood pressure (84).

• Resveratrol significantly improves glucose control and insulin sensitivity in persons with diabetes (84).

• Supports decreased cholesterol, LDL, and ApoB in type 2 diabetic patients (85).

• (350 mg/day) for six months was shown to reduce production of high amounts of inflammation markers such as IL-6, IL-10 and TNF (85).

Fenugreek

• Increases testosterone, balance estrogen levels, antioxidant function, and reduces glucose (blood sugar) levels (347,348,349).

• Increases testosterone via increased luteinizing hormone (hormone that increases free testosterone production) and decreased estrogen production (347,348,349).

• Supports antioxidant function via decreased levels of reactive oxygen species in the testicular glands (347,348,349).

Cissus Quadrangularis

• Supports joint health, antioxidant function, cardiovascular health, and reduced body fat (211, 212).

• Supports antioxidant function via increased free radical scavenging capacity and reduced inflammatory cytokines (211, 212).

• Supports Cardiovascular health via decreases in the waist and hip circumferences, reduced blood pressure, total cholesterol, triglycerides, fasting blood glucose, and leptin levels (211, 212).

• Reduces body fat via decreased Enzymatic activity of pancreatic lipase and decreased activity of genetic modulators of adipogenesis (fat cell growth) such as C/EBPα, PPARγ, SREBP-1c (genetic regulators of fat cell growth) (211, 212).

• Supports joint health via reduced inflammation in connective tissue (211, 212).

Tongkat Ali

• Reduces stress hormones (cortisol), increases free testosterone, enhances mood, and supports sexual function (132).

Milk Thistle

• Supports liver health, aids as antioxidant, and reduces inflammation (345).

• Supports liver health via high amounts of Silymarin which reduces lipid peroxidation and inhibits binding of toxins to the hepatocyte cell membrane receptors (345).

N-Acetyl Cysteine

• Supports immune health, healthy detoxification, and increases antioxidant function (351,352).

• Supports immune health via increases of L-Glutathione production (master antioxidant) (351,352).

• Supports detoxification via enhanced toxin clearing from the liver (351,352).

Indole-3-Carbinol

• Supports antioxidant function, prostate health, and balanced estrogen levels (353).

• Supports prostate health via inhibition of proliferation, migration, and invasion of prostate cancer cells (353).

• Inhibits pathways governing hormonal homeostasis, cell cycle progression, apoptosis, and DNA repair of prostate cancer cells (353).

• Reduces bad estrogen in the liver, reduced estrogen dominance in males, and decreases aromatase production from fat adipose tissue (fat cells) (353).
