ATP or adenosine triphosphate is the energy source used for all body processes. ATP is manufactured through a complex process in a tiny part of the cell known as the mitochondria. Within the mitochondria, CoQ10 plays a major role in the production of energy (ATP) and as an antioxidant to help protect the cell. In order to carry out these respective tasks, CoQ10 gets converted from the ubiquinone form, which is involved in the production of energy (ATP), to the ubiquinol form, which functions as an antioxidant. Age and health deficiencies, however, can affect the body’s ability to manufacture ubiquinol from the ubiquinone form. This can lead to sub-optimal levels which can reduce energy production and weaken the body’s immune and antioxidant defenses. Supplementation with CoQ10 in the reduced, ubiquinol form, supports the body’s antioxidant requirements to help combat free radicals, while helping it to maintain healthy ATP (energy) levels.†



Features
Ubiquinol from Kaneka, one of Japan’s leading manufacturers of CoQ10.
Reduced antioxidant form, no conversion necessary; more bioavailable.
Kaneka QH™ is stabilized through a patented process.
All trans form; no cis isomers.
Identical in structure to the CoQ10 produced in the body.
Processed through natural fermentation; not synthetic.
Easy to swallow soft gel capsule.
Gluten free.


Benefits
Provides a direct source of ubiquinol bypassing the need for conversion.
Several factors such as aging, certain medications and disease state can affect the conversion of ubiquinone to ubiquinol.†
Ubiquinol CoQH offers improved absorption and bioavailability, especially to individuals who fall into one of the above categories and have difficulty achieving optimal levels of this nutrient.†
High levels of energy (ATP) are necessary for the optimal function of all body systems. Ubiquinol plays an indirect role in providing support for the production of optimal levels of ATP.†
In addition to its role in energy production, the main role of ubiquinol (reduced CoQ10) is its ability to help neutralize free radicals by providing antioxidant support.†

Melatonin is a hormone that is secreted by a part of the brain called the pineal gland. The synthesis of melatonin begins with L-tryptophan which is converted into 5–HTP then to serotonin and then to melatonin. Production of melatonin is under the influence of part of the brain known as the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus receives information from the retina of the eye, about the daily patterns of light and dark. The result is the production of physiological and behavioral circadian rhythms. These circadian rhythms help control various functions in the body including the wake/sleep cycle.† The amount of melatonin produced varies; synthesis is increased in the dark and decreased in the light. As darkness approaches, melatonin production increases, helping prepare the body for sleep. Studies show that supplemental melatonin may help support a normal sleep cycle, help fight jet-lag, and in higher amounts provide antioxidant support.†

Features
Non-animal source, as this is preferable to a bovine extract which is not as safe as it would typically be derived from bovine brain tissue. Bovine brain tissue is a BSE (Mad Cow Disease) risk.
Pharmaceutical-grade melatonin.
Benefits
Melatonin is a hormone secreted by the pineal gland when it is dark and has been shown to support a healthy sleep cycle especially in individuals who may have difficulty sleeping.†
Melatonin is also a powerful antioxidant helping to neutralize several different types of free radicals such as the damaging hydroxyl radical, hydrogen peroxide, singlet oxygen, and peroxynitrite.†
Melatonin helps support normal, healthy neurological and cardiovascular function.†
It also plays a role in supporting normal, healthy immune function.†

The human body is made up of many joints. These joints are essential to movement and our ability to undertake daily tasks. As we age, the integrity of our joints may become compromised. Injury, excess weight, poor nutrition, and disease can leave joints, stiff, swollen, achy, and with reduced mobility. Cartilage serves to protect the joints and is typically the first thing to be affected when problems develop. Type II Collagen is the major structural protein responsible for the tensile strength and resilience of cartilage. It comprises 85-90% of the collagen that makes up the smooth white tissue (articular cartilage) that covers the ends of the bones at the joint surface. Type II Collagen is also replete in go cosaminoglycans such as chondroitin sulfate and Hyaluronic Acid (HA). HA is concentrated in the synovial fluid that fills the joint cavities which is responsible for reducing friction between the articulating joints and acts a shock absorber.†

Features
500mg of Type II Collagen (KollaGen-IIxs™).
Provides 50mg of naturally occurring Hyaluronic Acid (HA).
Contains 100mg of naturally occurring Chondroitin Sulfate.
Clinically studied to provide joint support.
Gluten-Free.


Benefits
KollaGen-IIxs ™, taken in a dose of 500mg three times daily, has been clinically shown to benefit joint health and improve mobility.†
Type II collagen is a natural source of Hyaluronic Acid (HA), an essential component of synovial fluid that reduces friction and cushions joints.†
Type II collagen contains naturally occurring glycoproteins which enhances the antioxidant protection within joints.†
Chondroitin sulfate inhibits enzymes such as collagenase, elastase, and proteoglycanase that can become overactive in joint degeneration, thereby compromising the integrity of these tissues.†
