• Promotes Healthy Response to Stress

  NEW & IMPROVED!!!   A comprehensive blend of the highest-quality adaptogenic herbs.  These ingredients aid in adrenal hormone production and support the body's adaptogenic response.  Also unlike many adrenal formulas on the market, Adrenal Forte is fully vegan.*

  A complete adrenal and adaptogenic solution in one bottle!  This formula incorporates the latest scientific research on nutrition and metabolic functions.  Individual nutrients are formulated for maximum bioavailability, synergy and hormonal activation.*  Specific features include:

  • Cordyceps Sinensis is seen as a very precious medicinal mushroom in China and other Asian countries. For over 2000 years, Cordyceps sinensis has been used as a tonic, to increase health and vitality, combat aging and help against various age-related diseases. It is a safe, highly valued herb with activities that support nearly every physiological system impacted by the body’s response to normal everyday stressors, including the immune and cardiovascular systems.  In addition the cell-protective and antioxidant activities of Cordyceps have been well documented.*

  • Rhodiola Rosea is an herb which provides both cognitive stimulation and emotional calming.  A number of studies have shown that Rhodiola can dramatically reduce mental and physical fatigue under stressful conditions by increasing the body’s energy levels.  It is believed that Rhodiola enhances the body’s tolerance to stress by influencing key brain chemicals, such as serotonin and norepinephrine, and natural feel-good opioids such as beta-endorphins.  According to a review of the literature on Rhodiola, supplementation supports healthy work performance, quality of sleep, appetite, and energy levels subsequent to intense physical or intellectual strain.*

  • Panax Ginseng has been used in medicine for over 5000 years.  It enhances athletic performance, and provides energy to people who are stressed or fatigued. Studies show that ginseng and ginsenosides have beneficial effects in supporting the adrenal glands, protecting the gastric mucosa, and supporting healthy body weight, blood hormones, and the gene expression of catecholamine synthesizing enzymes.  Ginsenosides also support the immune system and have cytokine-modulating activities.*

  • Siberian ginseng, or Eleutherococcus senticosus, is not actually ginseng, but rather a different plant species.  It contains eleutheroside compounds instead of ginsenosides and is known to stimulate the immune system, increase energy and reduce fatigue. Eleuthero has also been associated with increased mental ability, concentration and greater alertness.*

  • Ashwaganda, one of the most vital herbs in Ayurvedic healing, has been used since ancient times for a wide variety of conditions, but is most well-known for its restorative benefits.  It is the ginseng of the Ayurvedic medicine.  It helps improve physical energy and athletic ability, increase immunity to colds and infections and increase sexual capacity and fertility.  Ashwaganda seems to show positive effects on the endocrine, cardio, and central nervous systems.  It is one herb that could help your body produce its own thyroid hormones.*

  Standard Dosage:  Take four capsules daily in divided doses or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.

• Blood Fat Normalization / Metabolic Optimizing / Anti-Aging Formula*

  We are extremely happy to announce that Cholest-X™ is being reformulated and replaced with a vastly superior cholesterol-reducing formula called Metabolic MD™. When taken as directed Metabolic MD™ is a good tasting liposomal formula designed to achieve double the cholesterol-lowering effects than Cholest-X™. Metabolic MD™ is designed to work quickly, and then cost-effectively to keep blood fat levels normal.*

  Metabolic MD™ is a synergistic, comprehensive evidence-based formulation* designed to:

  • Attain 4 to 6 times the blood levels of ingredients compared to standard oral formulas*
  • Achieve optimal bio-absorption, unexcelled bio-availability and superior bio-utilization compared to standard oral formulas*
  • Accomplish regenerative medical outcomes in complex metabolic “group” disturbances such as excessive body fat, elevated blood cholesterol, high triglycerides, elevated LDL levels, abnormal HbA1c levels, and insulin dysregulation.*
  • Provide fast reductions in cholesterol, triglyceride and LDL levels*
  • Quickly achieve and maintain ideal weight and body mass index (BMI) outcomes, even for the more stubborn overweight cases*
  • Help resolve the key underlying factors causing plaque and blood clots*
  • Effectively suppresses: (1) Advanced glycation end products (or AGEs, which is regarded by medical authorities as the primary driving force to the aging process), and (2) assaults and injuries to the critical inner lining to blood vessels*

  To achieve all of the above, Metabolic MD™ incorporates all non-GMO ingredients in a proprietary synergistic ratio* including:

  • Liposomal Berberine
  • Liposomal Irvingia gabonensis (IGOB-131®)
  • Liposomal Camellia sinensis
  • Select Liposomal Bioactivated B-Complex vitamins → Benfotiamine, P-5-P and Pantethine
  • Select amino acids in Liposomal format → Acetyl-l-tyrosine and 5-HTP
  • Key minerals → Liposomal Vanadium and Iodine

  Take 5ml (1 teaspoon) twice daily in juice or liquid, at breakfast and dinner.

  Metabolic MD™ is expected to become available this August.

• Complete Daily Multivitamin

  A two capsule multivitamin with the same hormonal activators as Essentials 5in1 such as Zinc, Selenium, Iodine and B12.  Ideal for sensitive individuals of those who have already achieved optimum nutritional status.

  • A complete daily multivitamin with full doses of nutrients!  This formula incorporates the latest scientific research on nutrition and metabolic functions.  Individual nutrients are formulated for maximum bioavailability, synergy, hormonal activation and anioxidant capacity.  Specific features include:
  • Vitamin A forms which include a complete spectrum of beta-carotene and mixed carotenoids. It is a completely natural form derived from the pristine seas of the South Pacific.
  • Activated B-vitamins with each B vitamin for immediate and sustained release activity. Doses used eliminate the need for stress-B-complex.
  • Vitamin C which is in a very gentle form for the gastrointestinal system.  It is also combined with a full spectrum natural citrus bioflavanoids for maximum absorption.
  • Vitamin E forms known to be synergistically active such as alpha-tocopherol, gamma tocopherol and sesame lignans. Gamma tocopherol is a more effective trap than alpha tocopherol for reactive nitrogen oxides, which are toxic to the body. Alpha tocopherol alone could be deactivated by free radicals without the presence of Gamma Tocopherol.
  • Vitamin K2, which is critical for bone building and its plaque breaking ability. Daily Two and our other multinutrient formula Essentials 5in1 are the only multivitamin formulas currently available that contain Vitamin K2.
  • Albion’s TRAACS® Chelated Minerals: The only clinically proven, chemically validated mineral amino acid chelates. They represent the gold standard in patented, pharmaceutical grade mineral chelates. Every TRAACS® mineral compound is validated and “fingerprinted” to ensure lot-to-lot conformity to Albion’s high standards. TRAACS® mineral amino acid chelates deliver the following measurable results: 1. Highly bioavailable and easily digested 2. Safe, predictable and effective 3. Stable in acidic environments 4. Hypoallergenic, Kosher-Pareve and vegetarian friendly.
  • Digestive Enzyme Blend acts as a crucial cofactor in the proper  absorption of nutrients.
  • Bioperine® has been added because it has been clinically shown to further increase the bioavailability of a wide range of nutrients.

  Standard Dosage: Take two capsules daily in divided doses with meals.

Now in delayed release capsules to minimize or completely eliminate the gastric side effects some individuals experience taking a multivitamin.

  SAME GREAT MULTIVITAMIN NOW IN DELAYED RELEASE CAPSULES!   A complete multinutrient designed specifically for maximum hormonal and metabolic activation in one bottle, virtually eliminating the need for supplemental Vitamin B, Vitamin E, Vitamin A, Vitamin K, and extra minerals.  This formula incorporates the latest scientific research on nutrition and metabolic functions. Individual nutrients are formulated for maximum bioavailability, synergy, hormonal/ metabolic activation and anti-oxidant capacity.

  Specific special features including ingredients which are usually available as separate supplement bottles include:
