Lithium Synergy 120 capsules: "Lithium Synergy™ combines lithium orotate, known for its ability to help stabilize mood swings related to depression and other mood disorders, with vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin) and trimethylglycine to support healthy methylation pathways.
How does lithium orotate work?
Mood disorders are often due to inositol depletion. Lithium recycles and synthesizes inositol by inhibiting IMPase enzyme. The phosphoinositol signaling pathway is involved in cell membrane signaling cascades. When salts of lithium are ingested, the lithium ions interact with several neurotransmitters and receptors in the central nervous system resulting in decreased norepinephrine release and increased serotonin synthesis.
Why add vitamin B12 and TMG (trimethylglycine)?
Vitamin B12 in the form of methylcobalamin and trimethylglycine both can donate methyl groups to improve methylation, often a weakness in patients with depression and other disorders.
Observational studies have found as many as 30% of patients hospitalized for depression are deficient in vitamin B12. The reasons for the relationship between vitamin B12 deficiency and depression may involve s-adenosylmethionine (SAMe). Vitamin B12 is required for the synthesis of SAMe, a methyl group donor essential for methylation reactions and subsequently the metabolism of neurotransmitters. SAMe deficiency has been related to depression. This hypothesis is supported by several studies that have shown supplementation with SAMe improves depressive symptoms.

"As the gut grows, the brain goes"
"As the gut grows, the brain goes.
According to a recent study those who are overweight to obese exhibit smaller brains due to atrophy. The area most affected was that which is responsible for memory, language and problem solving, the frontal cortex.
EndoTrim™ is a comprehensive endocrine balancing formula designed to promote optimal insulin, leptin and cortisol balance. This formula is for anyone wishing to improve body composition, while CLA has been found to promote the body's natural fat metabolism making it easier to get your body in shape. Several studies investigating the effects of CLA on weight management and body composition confirm this.

PaleoReds
"Eat right for your stomach type.
Those infected with Heliobacter pylori, eat red meat and dairy and consume high amounts of salt significantly increase their risk of gastric cancer. On the other hand, those who consume more fresh fruits and vegetables decrease their likelihood of developing the disease, according to a recent study.
PaleoReds™ combines over a dozen fruits and vegetables and their phytonutrients from the red/purple group to help reduce the risk of common chronic diseases and premature ageing.

SUGAR SUGAR EVERYWHERE
"Fact #1
'A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down'???.
Most American women should not consume more than 100 calories of added sugar a day, while men should limit their intake to no more than 150 calories, according to a new recommendation from the American Heart Association.
'Added sugar' refers to sugars added to foods during processing, during cooking or when a food is consumed.
The recommendation works out to about six teaspoons of added sugar a day for women and about nine teaspoons for men. In the United States, people take in more than 22 teaspoons of added sugar (355 calories) on average, each day, according to the 2001-2004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
Xylitol is a natural sweetener that is made from Birch tree bark and corn husks and tastes just like sugar, but has 40% less calories and creates no sugar highs or lows!
