Ultra Preventive® X has been carefully developed to contain adequate amounts of vitamins, minerals, and other beneficial nutrients and enzymes. Each ingredient is selected in consideration of its absorbability, competitive relationship with other nutrients and long-term safety. The specific nutrients play vital roles and support cellular health, energy, methylation, the nervous system, and vascular, bone, heart and immune support, among other functions. Alpha-lipoic acid is a nutritional coenzyme that is involved in energy metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates and fats, has physiological functions for healthy blood glucose metabolism, and is able to scavenge a number of free radicals. Alpha-lipoic acid can also recharge other antioxidant systems such as glutathione and vitamins C and E. Vitamin C is a water-soluble antioxidant nutrient, also protecting cells from oxygen free radical damage. It is essential for connective tissue and bone metabolism, capillary health, and immune function. Vitamin C works together with vitamin E. Beta-carotene supports vitamin E, recognized as a fat-soluble antioxidant. It provides cell stabilization and supports cell membranes, e.g., in the lungs, eyes, and arteries. The carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin are important antioxidants in the macula of the eye, as evidenced by recent studies performed by the NIH National Eye Institute. Research has shown that these important carotenoids are the predominant pigments found in the macula to support healthy vision. The antioxidant activity of quercetin supports the gastrointestinal tract and immune system. Quercetin increases mucus secretion from gastric cells. The mucus polysaccharide provides a protective buffer for the gastric cells from the low pH of the stomach contents. Quercetin also supports the normal immune response to antigens. In addition, quercetin reduces the IgE-mediated release from mast cells as well as IgG-mediated histamine release. Many bioflavonoids, especially rutin and quercetin, support the body’s circulatory system by helping maintain capillary blood flow and proper vascular permeability, integrity, and resiliency. N-Acetyl-l-Cysteine is a precursor for the sulfur amino acid cysteine, which is used by the body to synthesize glutathione. Glutathione is a naturally occurring tripeptide that is a major component of two enzymes: glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reductase, which help scavenge toxic free radicals and reduce peroxidation. Calcium and magnesium are included in a 1:1 ratio in bioavailable amino acid chelate and citrate forms to support bone and tissue health. Vitamin D is responsible for the absorption of calcium into the blood, and Vitamin K2 deposits the blood calcium into bones and teeth. Thus, vitamin K2 is important for the proper distribution and utilization of calcium throughout the body. A significant dose of elemental choline from choline bitartrate is supplied in this formula. Choline acts as a methyl donor for homocysteine and folate metabolism in the methylation cycle following conversion to betaine, and as a structural component of cellular membranes and synthesis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Choline and inositol are lipotropic factors that support liver function and mobilize fats and bile. This formula contains methylated B vitamins for increased bioavailability. Hydroxycobalamin is a precursor form of vitamin B12 converted in the body to both methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin. While methylcobalamin is found in the cytosol of cells and predominates in blood and other fluids, adenosylcobalamin is the major form of vitamin B12 stored in the mitochondria of cellular tissues.
