Thiamine, Vitamin B1, enables the body to use carbohydrates as energy. It is essential for glucose metabolism, and it plays a key role in nerve, muscle, and heart function. Those at greatest risk of Thiamine Deficiencies include those with increased levels of alcohol consumption, intestinal disorders causing malabsorption issues (some examples may include gastric bypass, Crohn’s disease, irritable bowel syndrome, gastric cancers). Deficiencies can include symptoms of nerve damage, short-term memory loss, and muscle weakness.

Riboflavin, Vitamin B2, is a vitamin that is needed for growth and overall good health. Recent studies mention the negative effects on cardiac and neurologic function when a deficiency is noted. Vitamin B2 helps the body break down carbohydrates, proteins, and fats to produce energy, and it allows oxygen to be used by the body. “Riboflavin is also used for the development and function of the skin, lining of the digestive tract, blood cells, and other vital organs,” Dr. Sherry Ross, women’s health expert at Providence Saint John’s Health Center in Santa Monica, California.

Deficiency can cause anemia, sore throat, mouth or lip sores, inflammation of the skin, and swelling of soft tissue in the mouth. These symptoms can show up after just a few days of deficiency, according to the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

Hydroxocobalamin, Vitamin B12, is an injectable form of vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 helps your body use fat and carbohydrates for energy and allows it the ability to generate new proteins at a greater rate. It is also important for healthy functioning blood, cells, and nerves. Most people get enough vitamin B12 in their diet, but a deficiency may occur in certain health conditions (e.g., poor nutrition, stomach/intestinal problems, infection, cancer). Serious vitamin B12 deficiency may result in anemia, stomach problems, and nerve damage.

Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body and is essential to good health. Approximately 50% of total body magnesium is found in bone. The other half is found predominantly inside cells of body tissues and organs. Only 1% of magnesium is found in blood, but the body works very hard to keep blood levels of magnesium constant. Magnesium is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. It helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, keeps the heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune system, and keeps bones strong. Magnesium also helps regulate blood sugar levels, promotes normal blood pressure, and is known to be involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis. There is an increased interest in the role of magnesium in preventing and managing disorders such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes.

Promotes nitric oxide production, enhances circulation & cardiovascular health. These amino acids have been shown to play a vital role in supporting cardiovascular health, healthy blood flow, erectile dysfunction caused by vascular issues, and poor circulation. The tri-amino formulation improves nitric oxide production, which promotes good blood flow and optimizing blood pressure.

Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant responsible for detoxification and immune support.

Glutathione is considered “the mother of all antioxidants”. It is a primary intracellular antioxidant, essential to life. Glutathione stores are found naturally in our liver and lungs. As we age, Glutathione stores become depleted leading to loss of elasticity of skin and veins causing looseness of skin and tightening of blood vessels (high blood pressure).

Glutathione is an important detoxifier and can rid our body of damaging metals including; lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic. Glutathione can prevent or reverse alcohol induced fatty liver, cirrhosis, hepatitis, and other liver conditions as it inhibits chemically induced carcinogenesis. From a neurological perspective Glutathione can improve the prognosis of stroke victims and is useful in any condition where there is risk for oxidative damage.

With its known results of detoxification and increase in healthy cell production, Glutathione has a popular reputation for improving skin health including the presentation of a healthier, brighter skin glow.
