Acetyl-L-Carnitine / 500 mg

$47.00

Acetyl-L-Carnitine is the acetylated form of l-carnitine. It supports healthy mitochondrial function and cell membrane stability. The acetyl group from acetyl-l-carnitine is responsible for production of acetylcholine, an important neurotransmitter for optimal mental functioning, memory and attention.

Bromelain / 400 mg / Proteolytic Enzyme

$34.70

Bromelain is obtained from the lower stems of the pineapple plant. It contains a combination of proteolytic enzymes that have been shown to support a healthy inflammatory response. It is believed to work by supporting a healthy balance of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory prostaglandins. Bromelain is also effective at breaking down large proteins (proteolytic activity) that when absorbed intact and travel through the bloodstream, may cause an allergic response in the body.

Calcium & Magnesium Plus / with Boron & Vitamin D

$40.50

Calcium & Magnesium Plus is a complex of various sources of calcium with magnesium and other ingredients to assist the body in maintaining healthy bone structure. Calcium is a primary mineral for building the strong structure of bones and teeth.

Enhances the performance of the heart and blood vessels with a precise combination of synergistic ingredients. The flavonoid compounds in hawthorn berries support normal blood pressure and healthy cholesterol metabolism in the arterial wall while improving heart contractions. Coenzyme Q10 provides critical support for cardiovascular bioenergetics and heart muscle. Taurine regulates the activity of cyclic AMP and calcium in the heart. L-carnitine enhances oxygen utilization, heart muscle stamina, and normal heart contraction. Magnesium helps to insure a healthy heart beat.

Chromium Picolinate / 200 mcg

$17.10

Chromium is an essential trace mineral that potentiates insulin action and thus influences carbohydrate, protein, and fat metabolism.

CoEnzyme Q10 / 100 mg

$33.40

Co-Enzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) is an important rate limiting cofactor in the mitochondrial electron transport chain, the biochemical pathway in cellular respiration from which adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the form of energy used by the body, is derived. Since cellular activities are dependent upon energy, co-enzyme Q10 is crucial for the efficient functioning of nearly every cell. In addition to its well-established function as a component of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, co-enzyme Q10 has in recent years acquired increasing attention regarding its antioxidant properties. Co-Enzyme Q10 occurs in all cellular membranes as well as in blood serum and in serum lipoproteins. As a lipid-soluble antioxidant, coenzyme Q10 efficiently protects membrane phospholipids and serum low-density lipoproteins from lipid peroxidation. And, as recent data indicate, it also protects mitochondrial membrane proteins and DNA from free radical induced oxidative damage.

Cranberry Concentrate / 400 mg with Vitamin C

$30.60

Cranberry Concentrate contains 400 mg of 100% whole cranberry fruit concentrated extract. This all-natural, 100% pure cranberry powder dietary supplement is free of added sugars, artificial sweeteners, and other ingredients.

Sleep and Its Effect on Your Overall Health

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a third of adults report they usually get less than the recommended amount of sleep every night. Why does this matter? Not getting enough sleep is linked with many chronic diseases and conditions – such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, obesity and depression – which all threaten our nation’s health. However, diagnosis of sleep disorders can lead to treatment. In today’s program we talk about sleep apnea, starting school later and more.

Joel Porquez, clinical manager at Mercy Sleep Disorders Center, talks about sleep issues with adults and children.
