Milk Thistle 250mg 100 capsules - Physiologics
Supports
Healthy Liver Function*
Standardized to contain: 80% Silymarin
PRODUCT DISCUSSION
Milk Thistle Extract contains a group of beneficial flavonoids collectively
called Silymarin. PhysioLogics Milk Thistle Extract 250 mg has been standardized
to contain 80% Silymarin, to help support liver health.*
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
Free radicals can contribute to oxidative stress, which in turn may contribute
to the premature aging of cells. The flavonoids and antioxidants in Milk Thistle
Extract promote the action of nucleolar polymerase A, for increased ribosomal
protein synthesis.* This promotes healthy liver function and helps support the
outer cell membrane structure of hepatocytes.*
CLINICAL EVIDENCE
Seventeen subjects who received 160 mg of silymarin three times per week
were compared to a control group who received no treatment for four weeks.
The subjects who received silymarin experienced a significant improvement in
liver function compared with the control group. (Torres et al, 2004)
Forty nine subjects received either 150 mg of silymarin three times per
day, or placebo, for six months. Those receiving silymarin experienced a
significant increase in plasma glutathione and antioxidant activity compared
with placebo. (Lucena et al, 2002)
SUMMARY
PhysioLogics Milk Thistle Extract contains beneficial flavonoids that promote
healthy liver function.*
SUGGESTED DOSAGE
For adults, take one (1) capsule three times daily, preferably with meals or
follow the advice of a health care professional. Capsules may be opened and
prepared as a tea.

For
Healthy Joint Cartilage*
HOW PATIENTS MAY BENEFIT
Promotes joint and cartilage comfort*
Increases mobility and range of motion*
PRODUCT DISCUSSION
PhysioLogics MSM contains Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), an organic source of
sulfur, a mineral that is vital in the formation of collagen, connective tissue,
and healthy joint cartilage.* It is one of the top three ingredients found in
popular joint products.
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
Sulfur plays an important role in nutrition. It is the eighth most abundant
element, and is an integral component of more than 150 compounds in the body.
Sulfur is fundamental to the structure and integrity of certain tissues,
including hair, skin, nails, and joints.* MSM is a dietary source of sulfur that

MSM clinical trials have focused on cartilage and
joint support.* Cartilage is a fibrous, elastic connective tissue that functions
as a cushioning layer for joints and is comprised of an extracellular matrix
made of complex proteins known as glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and proteoglycans.
Sulfur is used in the body as a constituent of certain amino acids, collagen and
disulfide bonds, and provides a raw material for the production of GAGs and
collagen.*
CLINICAL EVIDENCE
118 subjects participated in a clinical trial
in which they received 500 mg of MSM or placebo 3 times per day for 12
weeks. Those receiving MSM experienced a significant increase in joint
comfort compared with the placebo group. Our product provides up to 3 grams
of MSM per day. (Usha and Naidu, 2004)
40 subjects completed a clinical trial in
which they received 3 g of MSM or placebo twice per day for 12 weeks. Those
receiving MSM experienced significant improvements in joint comfort and
function compared with placebo. Our product provides up to 3 grams of MSM.
(Kim et al. 2006)
SUMMARY

components in cartilage.* The compounds play an important role in the integrity
and maintenance of joint cartilage.* MSM is a natural dietary source of sulfur
which helps support the health of joints and cartilage.*
SUGGESTED DOSAGE
For adults, take one (1) capsule two to three times daily (1000 mg) or four to
six times daily (500 mg), preferably with meals, or follow the advice of a
health care professional.

Mag’C
Buffered Vitamin C as Magnesium Ascorbate; Magnesium Ascorbate 830 mg; Magnesium (elemental) 80 mg; Ascorbyl Palmitate 150 mg Mag’’C™ is a compound of Vitamin C as ascorbyl palmitate, and Magnesium. It provides both the essential magnesium mineral and Vitamin C for the human body. In Mag’’C™, the acidic Vitamin C is neutralized by the accompanying magnesium, and becomes less irritating to the stomach. Mag’’C™ is excellent for fatigue conditions, hypoglycemia and depression since magnesium is the principle driver of ATP synthesis in the cells. Magnesium and Vitamin C together help improve blood vessel flexibility, atherosclorotic conditions and the occurrence of cardiac arrhythmias. Mag’’C™ is a potent source of magnesium for those suffering from magnesium anemias--most teenagers and elderly are deficient in magnesium. Because of its non-irritating nature, magnesium ascorbate should always replace Vitamin C when one gram or more Vitamin C is recommended in high dose Vitamin C therapies. Ascorbyl Palmitate is the Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) ester, which means that Vitamin C in this form is BOTH water and fat soluble, whereas simple Ascorbic Acid is only water soluble. The additional solubility provided by the ester form allows for GREATER BIOAVAILABILITY and absorption of Vitamin C by the body. A Nutritional Note...Besides being a common cold remedy, did you know that Vitamin C is excellent for the skin and improving skin conditions? Principal in glycogen production, Vitamin C can add to the health and vitality of your skin! And, according to recent studies, many Americans need to consume MORE Vitamin C than they currently do! Vitamin C deficiency can aggravate respiratory conditions and add to irritability. |

Alpha Lipoic Acid 600MG 60 Capsules - Physiologics
Supports
Sugar Metabolism*
HOW PATIENTS MAY BENEFIT
Superior antioxidant support*
Promotes cellular energy production*
Supports healthy nerve function*
BACKGROUND
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) plays a role in antioxidant synergism to fight oxidative
stress and free radical formation.* As a coenzyme, ALA is needed to break down
glucose for energy production.* ALA helps metabolize sugar in the body,
especially in muscles, where it promotes energy.*
PRODUCT DISCUSSION
PhysioLogics higher potency ALA 600 mg supplies this universal antioxidant that
recycles Glutathione, Coenzyme Q-10, and Vitamins C and E to help establish a
cellular antioxidant network.* Alpha Lipoic Acid also supports sugar metabolism
to help maintain healthy blood sugar level already within a normal range.*
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
ALA is a cofactor in the Krebs cycle, a major biochemical process that derives
energy from carbohydrates. Two central enzyme complexes, pyruvate dehydrogenase
and alpha-ketogluterate dehydrogenase, require ALA to generate citrate. Because
citrate is the first substrate in the Krebs cycle, the process cannot proceed
without adequate ALA. Alternate metabolic pathways may be stimulated in an
attempt to produce acetyl-CoA; however, an energy deficit remains, especially in
the central nervous system.
The body generates free radicals as natural
by-products of metabolism. Free radicals can contribute to oxidative stress,
which in turn may contribute to the premature aging of the cells. ALA is a
"universal antioxidant" that helps neutralize cell-damaging free
radicals in both the water-soluble and fat-soluble compartments of body cells.*
In addition, it regenerates NADt from NADH as well as intracellular levels of
Glutathione, Vitamins C and E, and Coenzyme Q-10.*
CLINICAL EVIDENCE
A double-blind placebo controlled study with
33 men examined the relationship between alpha-lipoic acid, glutathione
status and immune function. The subjects received either alpha-lipoic acid,
300 mg 3 times a day, or a placebo for 6 months. Blood glutathione levels
increased significantly in the treatment group compared with placebo (p=
0.04). Proliferation of lymphocytes was significantly enhanced in the
treatment group compared to declining levels in the placebo group. This

maintenance of glutathione status. (Jariwala et al, 2008)
This randomized double-blind placebo

Glucose Metabolism Support 60 vegtabs - Physiologics
For
Carbohydrate and Sugar Metabolism*
Glucose Metabolism Support is scientifically
formulated to support proper receptor functioning necessary for nutrient
metabolism.* When taken as directed, Glucose Metabolism Support supports the
metabolism of proteins in addition to the metabolism of glucose.* Natural
herbs and herbal extracts are combined with essential vitamins and minerals to
create a holistic approach to supporting overall energy metabolism.* Glucose
Metabolism Support also contains high-potency Chromium Picolinate. One small
study suggests that Chromium Picolinate may reduce the risk of insulin
resistance, and therefore may reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes. FDA
concludes, however, that the existence of a relationship between Chromium
Picolinate and either insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes is highly
uncertain.

Glycemic Complex 120 capsules - Physiologics
Supports
Glucose Metabolism*
Blood Sugar Support*
Patent-Pending Formula
HOW PATIENTS MAY BENEFIT
Cinnamon supports glucose metabolism and blood
sugar levels*
Blueberry Leaf Extract provides antioxidant
support*
Biotin helps support carbohydrate, protein,
and fat metabolism*
PRODUCT DISCUSSION
Glucose metabolism can be a concern for people of all ages and ethnic
backgrounds. This unique, patent-pending combination of Cinnamon, Nopal Cactus (Nopalactin),
and Blueberry Leaf Extract has been scientifically designed to support glucose
metabolism and maintain healthy blood sugar levels already within a normal
range.*
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
Cinnamon is an ancient herb that has been used for thousands of years and has an
expansive range of historical uses in many different cultures. It naturally
contains the important compounds eugenol and cinnamaldehyde, and has been
traditionally used for wellness. Cinnamon has been shown to enhance in vitro
glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis and to increase phosphorylation of the
insulin receptor; moreover, Cinnamon extracts are likely to aid in triggering
the insulin cascade system.* Research indicates that as a supplement, Cinnamon
helps support sugar and fat metabolism in the body.*
The blueberry plant is a natural source of
anthocyanins and chlorogenic acid. These phytochemicals have antioxidant
properties that may help neutralize cell-damaging free radicals.* Free radicals
can contribute to oxidative stress, which in turn may contribute to the
premature aging of cells. Blueberries have one of the highest oxygen radical
absorbance capacities (ORAC) of any fruits and vegetables, meaning that they are
rich in antioxidant compounds.*
Nopal Cactus is the young stem segment of prickly
pear, carefully peeled to remove the spines. It is native to Mexico. Nopal
Cactus has a long history of traditional use for promoting internal wellness due
to its natural compounds.
The daily dose of PhysioLogics Glycemic Complex
provides a rich source of Biotin, which helps support carbohydrate, protein and
fat metabolism.*
CLINICAL EVIDENCE
In a randomized placebo-controlled, clinical
trial, 60 men and women were given 1, 3, or 6 g of cinnamon daily or
matching placebo for 40 days. After 40 days, those in the cinnamon group had
significantly improved scores in glucose metabolic parameters. There were no
changes seen in the placebo group. This trial demonstrated that all three
doses of cinnamon effectively supported sugar and fat metabolism, which can
have implications in heart health. (Khan et al, 2003)
In an in-vitro study, when researchers
measured the antioxidant value of different fruits, blueberry was found to
have the highest TAC (Total Antioxidant Capacity) as compared to other
fruits like blackberry, strawberry, raspberry and many more. (Wu et al,
2004)
SUMMARY
Glycemic Complex is a patent-pending formula designed to support blood sugar
levels already in a normal range while providing further support for fat and
protein metabolism.* This unique formula also helps to fight the cell-damaging
effects of free radicals.*
SUGGESTED DOSAGE
For adults, take two (2) capsule three times daily, or follow the advice of your
health care professional.

MultiLogics® WeightLogic Once-Daily Formula with EGCG 50 Tablets - Physiologics
Promotes
Sugar Metabolism*
Supports Energy Metabolism*
PRODUCT DISCUSSION
MultiLogics® WeightLogic is an ideal supplement for anyone on a weight control
program. This daily multivitamin delivers >100% of the RDA for 17 vitamins
and minerals, including Chromium. This unique blend also contains EGCG, a
naturally occurring Green Tea ingredient popular with weight loss enthusiasts.*
STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
Many of us are concerned with controlling our weight. Dieting means restricting
food consumption, which may necessitate nutrition and vitamin supplementation
for some nutrients. A balanced multivitamin may be an important part of anyone's
diet, and those on a reduced calorie program may have special nutritional
requirements. MultiLogics® WeightLogic is an ideal daily supplement for people
concerned with weight management.*
WeightLogic provides a daily source of 20
vitamins and minerals to support many aspects of health:
Copper assists Iron in the release of energy
from cells.*
To provide immune system support, Vitamin C,
Selenium, and Zinc are included.*
Vitamin C and Copper are essential for
collagen formation to help promote healthy skin, hair, and nails.*
For bone mineralization support, Vitamin D is
essential to Calcium absorption and helps promote a healthy immune system.*
Vitamin E and Selenium, as a key component of
an antioxidant enzyme, each support cells from the harmful effects of free
radicals.*
The balanced B-Vitamins are essential for the
synthesis of red blood cells and the processing of amino acids to assist in
energy metabolism.*
As part of a well-balanced diet that is low in
saturated fat and cholesterol, Folic Acid, Vitamin B6 and Vitamin B12 may
reduce the risk of vascular disease. FDA evaluated the above claim and found
that, while it is known that diets low in saturated fat and cholesterol
reduce the risk of heart disease and other vascular diseases, the evidence
in support of the above claim is inconclusive.
Chromium is an essential mineral required for
normal metabolism of carbohydrates and lipids.*
INDICATIONS
For your clients who are on a weight control program, MultiLogics® WeightLogic
provides a daily source of 20 vitamins and minerals plus the Green Tea
ingredient EGCG that is popular with weight loss enthusiasts.*
HOW CLIENTS MAY BENEFIT
Vitamins and minerals are necessary for
growth, development, and a healthy life.*
Certain populations, such as those on reduced
calorie or reduced-carbohydrate diets, may require more vitamin and mineral
supplementation.*
A quick, easy, and convenient way to receive
>100% of the RDA for 17 vitamins and minerals.
B Vitamins support heart health.*
Chromium assists in normal metabolism of
carbohydrates and lipids.*
EGCG is the Green Tea ingredient popular with
weight loss enthusiasts.
SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH
The Physician's Health Study followed almost
15,000 male physicians for up to five years to study heart health. In this
study, lower levels of homocysteine were found in those with a healthier
cardiovascular system and longer life. In addition, researchers found that
high intakes of Vitamins B-6, B-12, and Folic Acid were correlated with
lower plasma homocysteine levels.
A review by Harvard researchers concluded that
most people do not consume an optimal amount of all vitamins by diet alone.
Consequently they recommend that all adults take a daily multivitamin.
SUMMARY
More than half of adults in America are overweight or obese. Maintaining an
ideal weight is an important part of keeping healthy, and proper nutrition plays
a key role in weight management. MultiLogics® WeightLogic is an ideal
supplement for people on a diet program, delivering 20 vitamins and minerals,
including Chromium. In addition, this product contains EGCG, the Green Tea
ingredient popular with weight loss enthusiasts.*
SUGGESTED DOSAGE
For adults, take one (1) tablet daily, preferably with a meal, or follow the
advice of your health care professional. As a reminder, discuss the supplements
you take with your health care providers.

FAQ
Is the chromium polynicotinate in alpha betic®
Cinnamon Chromium and Biotin trivalent?
Yes. Chromium is found primarily in two forms, trivalent, which is
biologically active and found in food, and hexavalent, a toxic form that
results from industrial pollution. Chromium polynicotinate, a complex of
chromium bonded with nicotinic acid, is present in the trivalent form, which
is considered very safe and devoid of documented reports of toxicity. In
addition, chromium polynicotinate has been investigated for its efficacy in
various conditions, including support of healthy glucose metabolism,
cholesterol, and triglyceride metabolism.†

Glucomannan - Pure Encapsulations
*Supports healthy weight management, glycemic response,
lipid metabolism, regularity and gastrointestinal health
Glucomannan is a soluble fiber with a high molecular
weight and viscosity compared to other fibers, providing enhanced support for
weight management, regularity, glycemic control, and lipid and lipoprotein
metabolism. In several controlled trials, konjac glucomannan supported healthy
lipid metabolism, triglyceride levels, glucose utilization, and vascular
function. Significant mean weight loss was observed in one 8-week double blind
trial, an effect that may be due to the effect of konjac glucomannan on satiety
as well as regularity. A later study demonstrated that addition of a resistance
and endurance exercise training program to a glucomannan-rich diet provides
enhanced support for healthy body composition, lipid metabolism and
triglycerides. Konjac glucomannan also enhances the growth of lactobacillus and
bifidobacteria for a healthy gastrointestinal tract.
Konjac glucomannan, a viscous soluble fiber, provides
important support for satiety and weight loss, lipid and triglyceride
metabolism, glycemic response and glucose function, vascular health and healthy
gut microflora. |
