- Combines glutathione, broccoli sprout and resveratrol to support antioxidant defences
- Promotes the activity of Nrf2, a transcription factor that supports the expression of numerous genes responsible for protection against oxidative stress
- Offers Setria® glutathione, a clinically researched brand for enhanced absorption
Nrf2 is a three-ingredient formula designed to support antioxidant defences. Cruciferous vegetables of the brassica family, such as broccoli, have long been recognized for their ability to support antioxidant activity, thereby maintaining healthy cells and tissues. They provide a source of the bioactive constituent sulforaphane, one of the most powerful activators of phase II enzyme function in the liver, protecting tissues from oxidative stress and reactive substances. Sulforaphane and resveratrol promote the activity of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), a transcription factor that supports robust, long-lasting expression of numerous genes responsible for protection against oxidative stress. Nrf2 also supports the biosynthesis of glutathione, a vital component of cellular antioxidant systems. The highest concentration of glutathione is found in the liver, where it offers antioxidant support and protects tissue from reactive species produced during detoxification. This formula contains Setria® glutathione, the only brand of glutathione with research showing absorption. In a randomized clinical trial, supplementation with 250 mg of Setria® glutathione per day increased glutathione levels in the blood after one, three and six months. Setria® glutathione also showed support for antioxidant defences, indicated by decreases in the oxidized-to-reduced-glutathione ratio in whole blood after six months.
Medicinal Ingredients (per capsule): Broccoli (Brassica oleracea italica) Sprout 250 mg (standardized to contain 1000 mcg sulforaphane), Setria® L-Glutathione 250 mg, resVida® Resveratrol 15 mg. Non-medicinal Ingredients: Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, Water.
Recommended Use: Provides antioxidants that help protect cells against the oxidative damage caused by free radicals. Recommended Dose:Adults: Take 1 capsule 1 to 3 times daily with meals or as directed by a healthcare practitioner. Consult a healthcare practitioner for use beyond 4 weeks. Usage recomm
Warning: Consult a healthcare practitioner prior to use if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking blood thinners or any prescription medication as resveratrol may alter the effectiveness of these medications. Some people may experience mild gastrointestinal disturbances, flushing and weight gain; in which case, discontinue use.
