Benefits

  • Comprehensive support for the detoxification of heavy metals
  • Contains nutrients which increase the synthesis and regeneration of glutathione, a potent detoxifier of reactive oxygen species and heavy metals
  • Provides diverse antioxidant support as well as neurological, renal and hepatoprotective nutrients
  • Highly bioavailable minerals supply detoxification enzyme cofactors which are often deficient

Feature Summary

Clear-HM provides advanced heavy metal detoxification support, supplying nutrients which increase glutathione levels, assist in heavy metal removal, improve antioxidant status, and protect against cellular and hepatic damage. N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) and alpha-lipoic acid both increase cellular levels of glutathione, which binds to mercury and reactive oxygen species and participates in the detoxification of many xenobiotics via conjugation reactions.1-5 They are powerful antioxidants and have been found to reduce toxicity to multiple organs from lead, arsenic, mercury, and cadmium.6,7,8

Spirulina platensisis a potent free radical scavenger, found to protect against heavy metal induced organ damage and to prevent anemia, leukopenia and the deposition of heavy metals in the brain.9-12 Spirulina also contains significant amounts of alkaline phosphatase activity, which may assist in the detoxification of organophosphorus pesticides.13 Vitamins B6 and C are required for the synthesis or regeneration of glutathione, with the latter providing broad antioxidant support minimizing heavy metal toxicity.14,15 Milk thistle is a well-established hepatoprotectant, and magnesium, often deficient in those with toxin exposure, provides an essential cofactor for many detoxification and mitochondrial enzymes.16,17
