More Info:
Livdetox tablets,
provided by Douglas Laboratories, contain several nutrient and herbal
ingredients shown to maintain liver structure and function in response
to environmental toxins.
Livdetox may be a useful dietary supplement for individuals who wish to maintain the structure and function of a healthy liver.
Livdetox contains several dietary
constituents that have been shown to support against various toxic
environmental stresses that affect the function and structure of the
liver. Choline, betaine, and methionine are involved in methyl group
metabolism, which is essential for normal liver function. Choline, as
an integral component of lecithin (phosphatidylcholine), is used for
synthesis and maintenance of normal cell membranes. Choline deficiency
results in steep increases in serum enzyme markers of liver injury.
Animals deficient in choline and inositol have an excess liver
accumulation of fat.
Inositol and choline supplementation of
animals prone to fatty livers prevents this liver dysfunction.
Taraxacum (dandelion) has been traditionally used as a detoxifying herb
working principally on the liver and gallbladder. This herb is thought
to stimulate the elimination of toxins and is one of the strongest
cholagogues and choleretics known. Silybum marianum, milk thistle, is
rich in flavonoids known collectively as silymarin. Silymarin has also
been shown to support healthy liver function under a variety of
environmental stress factors such as alcohol consumption and exposure
to pollutants and other potentially harmful substances.
Silymarin
compounds are known for their antioxidant activities preventing
damaging lipid peroxidation by excessive free radical levels. Cynara
scolymus (artichoke) has been used medicinally for centuries. Similar
to milk thistle, it is beneficial to the liver as it protects it
against environmental and infection-generated toxins. Extracts of
artichoke can stimulate the flow of bile from the liver and prevent
cholestasis. It also can protect liver cells from oxidative damage.
Cynara’s usefulness in liver support is thought to be due to its
content of caffeoylquinic acids, e.g. cynarin, and flavonoids. Curcumin
has been demonstrated to be a potent antioxidant, and may also provide
important support for healthy liver function.
