Hormone Support/Optimization Nutraceuticals in Sandy, UT

Stress is defined as any disturbance—extreme cold or heat, psychological stress, sleep deprivation, work overload, physical trauma, as well as toxic exposure—that can trigger the stress response. The body’s stress response system consists of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Prolonged stress activates the HPA axis and comprises three stages: stage 1: alarm; stage 2: resistance; and stage 3: exhaustion. The initial, short-lived phase (the alarm phase) is the body’s normal fight-or-flight response to danger, which is characterized by elevated cortisol levels. The next phase, the resistance phase, allows the body to continue buffering extended stress exposure, long after the initial fight-or-flight response has dissipated. Hormones released by the adrenal glands, such as cortisol and DHEA, help support the “resistance” response. However, extended periods of stress not only burden the system, creating an imbalance in cortisol and DHEA production, but can result in mental and physical fatigue, nervous tension, irritability and poor memory- all of which are characteristic of stage 3. Adapten-All provides a unique blend of botanicals and micronutrients that support the adrenal glands and the body’s ability to respond to and counteract the negative effects of stress, strengthen the body’s stress response, and support healthy energy levels. Adapten-All provides targeted amounts of vitamin C, pantothenic acid and other B vitamins that are critical to adrenal gland function. Adapten-All also provides a unique blend of “stress-adaptating botanicals” which help increase the body’s resistance to fatigue and maintain balanced cortisol and DHEA levels.

Lack of sleep, too much stress, poor nutrition, and prescription medications can draw on energy reserves, using them up faster than they can be replenished. Even the vital biologic systems can create an energy deficit that needs to be restored.MitoCORE is scientifically formulated, based on published research, to boost mitochondrial reserves and recharge cellular energy production. MitoCORE includes the powerful antioxidant trio of alpha lipoic acid, N-acetyl cysteine, and acetyl L-carnitine, all shown to recharge cellular energy production and the primary cellular antioxidant pools of vitamins E, C, and glutathione. MitoCORE also includes key micronutrients and phytonutrients, including green tea, broccoli seed extract, and resveratrol, to protect the mitochondria and continually renew the cycle of energy production.

The body’s cells and organ systems depend on an adequate supply of energy to function optimally. The mitochondria, known as the powerhouse of the cell, contain nutrients and enzymes important for cellular energy metabolism, including those that convert food into usable energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the primary source of energy for all cells. To increase mitochondrial output, there must be an adequate fuel supply for combustion and abundant antioxidants to scavenge free radical byproducts. Preserving our energy reserves and increasing energy output are critical to maintaining optimal health.

Vitamin D is a steroid hormone that is part of a group of fat-soluble prohormones best known for the role they play in supporting bone health and aiding in the absorption of calcium and phosphate from the gastrointestinal tract. A growing body of research highlights vitamin D’s important role in supporting other body systems, including cardiovascular and blood sugar balance, musculoskeletal strength, and neurological and immune function, enabled by its ability to target over 200 genes throughout the body. Vitamin D deficiency can lead to a decreased testosterone production by as much as 25%! While it has long been assumed that most people obtain adequate vitamin D through sun exposure, the nutrient’s biosynthesis is affected by time of day, season, location, smog/pollution, clothing, and sunscreen. Depleted vitamin D levels may interfere with normal tooth and bone development, cell growth, and immune and nervous system regulation.

DHEA is a precursor to estrogen and testosterone. In addition, DHEA may also have physiological actions unrelated to its function as a hormone precursor, as DHEA receptors are also present in human muscle cells. Clinical studies using oral doses of DHEA have demonstrated its ability to maintain hormonal balance. In a study of 20 women (ages 50-65 years) receiving 25 mg/day for 12 months, DHEA promoted hormonal balance as early as 3 months after starting DHEA. As indicated by serum concentrations, DHEA helped support healthy levels of testosterone, progesterone, estrone, and estradiol.
