Flavonoid Complex for ThriversProThrivers Wellness Flavonoid Complex features a unique combination of herbs and nutrients intended to support antioxidation.* This formula relies upon the combination of ingredients versus the use of single or sequential compounds. ProThrivers Wellness Flavonoid Complex features Theracurmin®, a unique , highly bioavailable formualtion of turmeric. Theracurmin is water-dispersible and the subject of ongoing research.11,12 Curcurmin, the primary active constituent of turmeric, is a bioactive polyphenolic compound. Green tea extract: Sunphenon® brand green tea extract, which has been the subject of studies of interest to thrivers.1-3 Resveratrol: Cell culture and experimental animal studies have found that resveratrol can quench reactive oxygen species and induce the expression of glutathione peroxidase, SOD dismutase and catalase.4 Alpha-Glycosyl Isoquercitrin: Quercetin is a flavonoid ubiquitous in plants. Quercetin has various mechanisms of action shown in preclinical studies that underlie its potential health-supporting effects.5-7 However, quercetin is poorly absorbed. This formula utilizes alpha-glycosyl isoquercitrin, which has nearly 18 times the absorption of quercetin aglycone.*8,9 Reduced L-Glutathione: Setria® brand glutathione. Coenzyme Q10: Ubiquinone (CoQ10) is an essential co-factor in oxidative phosphorylation, the final step of mitochondrial energy production. Mitochondrial energy metabolism and antioxidation balance are two mechanisms for which CoQ10 acts.*10 About ProThrivers WellnessThe ProThrivers line of products has been specifically designed with the guidance of Lise Alschuler, ND, FABNO, a respected naturopath for 20 years and an expert in thriver care. Her present clinical focus is on addressing the needs of this specific population of thrivers using evidence-informed strategies. In addition, Dr. Alschuler is a thriver herself and uses her own experience to better understand their unique challenges. Vester H, Holzer N, Neumaier M, et al. J Inf.
