Supplement Facts
Product Reviews
Wheat, barley, and grains are vital parts of a healthy diet, providing the soluble and insoluble fiber that are needed to support gastrointestinal health. Sadly, for many individuals the gluten contained in these natural ingredients can cause gastrointestinal discomfort and other symptoms that make eating them challenging. For most individuals, the inability to digest these nutrients efficiently is based on a lack of the enzymes that are needed to facilitate their digestion.
Protease can be beneficial for supporting the body's ability to digest gluten effectively.
The Gluten Buster vegetarian capsules by Ecological Formulas provide protease designed to help support and facilitate the digestion of gluten.
Ecological Formulas Gluten Buster contains a scientifically designed blend of proteolytic enzymes. Ecological Formulas Gluten Buster is not intended as a replacement for a gluten-controlled diet or to prevent gluten allergies.
Composed of 20 different amino acids, proteins are complex structures that can be difficult to digest. Amino acids are combined to make different proteins, just like letters are combined to make different words. And just like certain Words are harder to pronounce, certain proteins are harder to digest. Some proteins are easily broken down into smaller peptides and free amino acids, but others resist complete digestion. When consumed, the incomplete digestion of these proteins may cause gastrointestinal distress including bloating, gas, diarrhea and/ or constipation.
Although gluten is a rich source of the amino acid proline, it is difficult digest. Unfortunately, many of us are deficient in the enzymes necessary to digest the proline bonds. BioCore DPP/IV® provides supplemental enzymes that can help break down gluten. BioCore DPP lV® provides supplemental dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP/IV) activity along with other fungal proteases that can increase gluten digestion. Many individuals are concerned about gluten and do what they can to avoid its consumption and its associated discomfort. BioCore DPP/IV® supports
digestion of small amounts of gluten that might be inadvertently consumed to help maintain your peace of mind.

SINUS SURVIVAL
SinuThyme
5 reviews
$33.74
$44.99
Specially Developed for Sinus Sufferers
SinuThyme contains a synergistic blend of ingredients that support sinus health by increasing mucociliary clearance, decreasing the build-up of mucus and boosting immune response during seasonal respiratory challenges.
SinuThyme is a specialized preparation of botanicals and nutrients formulated to support immune health and provide immediate support for respiratory challenges. The standardized botanicals and nutrients in SinuThyme target sinus related issues by clearing airway passages, decreasing the viscosity of mucus and supporting immune health.
Why These Natural Ingredients?
Thyme has traditionally been used to help with inflamed sinuses, whooping cough, and help loosen phlegm. Thymol is the active ingredient in thyme, and is responsible for the antiseptic, antibacterial, antifungal properties.
N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine is a powerful mucolytic that helps break down mucus viscosity allowing sinuses to drain. This makes conditions in the sinus less conducive for bacteria and fungus to grow.
Andrographis and Siberian ginseng are immune enhancing agents that help support the body's natural defenses. Studies have shown that andrographis helps significantly reduce the severity, duration and symptoms of the common cold.
Turmeric and Bromelain are beneficial in reducing the inflammation that contributes to sinus pressure and pain.
Berberine Sulfate is a salt form similar to the berberine alkaloids found in goldenseal, a plant known to have natural antibiotic properties.
Licorice root has historically been used to soothe respiratory inflammation.
Suggested Use: 3 capsules per day

5-Hydroxytryptophan
1 review
$37.00
$37.00
5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is the intermediate metabolite produced when the body initiates the process of converting the essential amino acid L-tryptophan to serotonin. Serotonin levels in the body are associated with the regulation of sleep, mood, aggression, appetite, temperature, sexual behavior, and pain sensation.*
Supplementing with 5-HTP to facilitate serotonin production is preferable to supplementing with L-tryptophan because, unlike L-tryptophan, 5-HTP cannot be shunted into niacin or protein production.* Supplementation with 5-HTP bypasses the conversion of L-tryptophan into 5-HTP by the enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase, the rate-limiting step in the synthesis of serotonin and a step that can be inhibited by a number of factors, including stress, insulin resistance, increasing age, and deficiencies of vitamin C, folate, and iron.
5-HTP is well absorbed when taken orally, with about 70 percent ending up in the bloodstream.*
Intestinal absorption of 5-HTP does not require the presence of a transport molecule and is not affected by the presence of other amino acids; therefore, it may be taken with meals without reducing its effectiveness.* 5-HTP easily crosses the blood-brain barrier and effectively increases central nervous system (CNS) synthesis of serotonin.*
5-HTP has been shown to have a beneficial impact on mood, discomfort associated with fatigue, sleep, and carbohydrate craving.* Numerous studies of individuals with negative mood status have shown significant positive response with 50-300 mg of 5-HTP daily.*
To further facilitate serotonin production, Thorne Research's 5-HTP formula contains pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, the active form of vitamin B6 and the necessary cofactor for the conversion of 5-HTP to serotonin.* 5-HTP is commercially produced by extraction from the seeds of the African plant, Griffonia simplicifolia.
Two Capsules Contain: Vitamin B6 (as Pyridoxal 5'-Phosphate) 6.8 mg. 5-Hydroxytryptophan 100 mg.
Other Ingredients: Microcrystalline Cellulose, Hypromellose (derived from cellulose) capsule, Leucine, Silicon Dioxide.

Promotes lean muscle mass and strength, and enhances energy production
Amino Complex is a comprehensive blend of essential amino acids. It is best taken after a workout to help trigger the recovery process. NSF Certified for Sport®
Amino Complex is NSF Certified for Sport®. It supports sports-related, fitness-related, and training-related activities, and it promotes the increase of muscle mass for someone needing that benefit, including the elderly. Amino acid supplementation can decrease fat synthesis, improve redox status, and promote energy production via activation of NRF-2 and PGC-1alpha. Amino acids also promote mitochondrial biogenesis – the body's internal production of energy. The comprehensive blend of essential amino acids in Amino Complex is high in branched-chain amino acids, a group of amino acids that have been validated through numerous clinical trials to promote the growth of lean muscle mass and enhance muscle strength. This active ingredient formulation in Amino Complex is backed by more than 25 years of scientific and clinical research. Amino Complex comes in two flavors, lemon and berry, and is lightly sweetened. It mixes easily with warm or cold liquids, has no artificial sweeteners, and contains flavors only derived from natural sources.
Because an athlete needs to know that his or her supplements are trustworthy and compliant, every batch of an NSF Certified for Sport® product is tested for compliance with label claims and to ensure the absence of more than 200 substances banned by many major athletic organizations, including stimulants, narcotics, steroids, diuretics, beta-2 agonists, and masking agents.
Mix 1 scoop with 6 ounces of water one to two times daily or as recommended by your health professional.
