Opti-GHI contains macro- and micronutrients, as well as a host of ingredients (some patented or proprietary) that Aid fatty acid metabolism,gastrointestinal health, and healthy eicosanoid and cytokine metabolism. Activated cofactors Aid mitochondrial energy production needed for biotransformation and detoxification. This formula's ingredients Assist moderate phase I detoxification, upregulate and Aid phase II pathways, and provide antioxidant Aid as well.
Protein Metabolism
VegaPro is XYMOGEN's proprietary blend of pea protein isolate and rice protein concentrate, L-glutamine, glycine, and taurine. Generation of glutathione and sulfation cofactors-vital for phase II conjugation requires an array of amino acids. The combination of pea protein and rice protein, containing a complement of amino acids, achieves an amino acid score of 100%. Glutamine, a conditionally essential and versatile amino acid with two nitrogen moieties, is crucial to nitrogen metabolism and Assists maintain healthy liver tissue and function.[2] The amino acid glycine is needed for bile synthesis, phase Il detoxification, and glutathione production. Taurine, a derivative of the sulfur-containing amino acid cysteine, is also important for synthesis of bile salts and Assists stabilize cell membranes.
Gastrointestinal Aid
Ginger root, included to Aid healthy digestion including the release of bile from the gallbladder, acts at several sites to moderate PGE(2) production and Aid the normal response to inflammation. Fiber (from inulin and flaxseeds) Aids production of short-chain fatty acids as well as a healthy intestinal flora. MeadowPure, an organic flaxseed complex, possesses excellent oxidative stability, Aids antioxidant activity, and provides lignins, soluble fiber, and omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids. Glutamine plays a key role in healthy intestinal cell proliferation and gut barrier integrity, immune function, and normal tissue healing.
Detoxification Aid
Ellagic acid (from pomegranate extract) prevents over-induction of CYP1A enzymes, works at the gene level to induce synthesis of glutathione-S-transferases and other phase II activities, binds directly to toxins, and protects DNA and hepatocytes.15.6 Watercress is a rich source of beta-phenylethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC)-a versatile compound found to inhibit phase I enzymes and induce the phase II enzymes associated with biotransformation and excretion of toxins. Watercress was found to contain even stronger phase II inducers known as 7-methylsulfinyheptyl and 8-methylsulfinyloctyl isothiocyanates as well.78 Green tea catechins not only Aid antioxidant activity but also appear to act as modulators of phase I and phase II detoxification. Choline is present to Aid lipid metabolism in the liver and can be converted to betaine, a methyl donor.
The active, bioavailable form of B vitamins (pyridoxal-5'- phosphate (B6), 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (folate), methylcobalamin (B12)) and glycine all Aid amino acid conjugation and are vital for the detoxification of xenobiotics and xenoestrogens. 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF), methylcobalamin, betaine, and methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) are present to Aid methylation and detoxification. 5-MTHF Aids healthy folate nutrition, especially in those with variations in folate metabolism. In Opti-GHI, 5-MTHF is provided as Quatrefolic for enhanced stability, solubility, and bioavailability.
Preventium, a patented form of potassium hydrogen d-glucarate,Aids glucuronidation. Sulfation is Aided by MSM and sodium sulfate. Acetylation is Aided by d-calcium pantothenate, pyridoxal-5'-phosphate, and magnesium. Several minerals in Opti- GHI are provided as Albion mineral chelates and TRAACS mineral amino acid chelates for enhanced gastrointestinal absorption and bioavailability.
