Metabolic Maintenance Products

Balanced Amino Maintenance is a multiple amino acid formula that contains free-form amino acids in the ratios of what scientists consider to be the most perfect protein found in nature. Because these amino acids are in their free form, they can be readily absorbed and utilized by the body. The bio-activating agent vitamin B-6 (in the form of pyridoxal 5' phosphate) is included for optimal utilization. BAM is an excellent adjunct for the support of normal energy and neuro-cognitive function.*

D-Ribose is a simple five-carbon sugar (pentose) found in every cell in the human body. Ribose is conserved by the cell for its primary role of rebuilding ATP, our main energy source. The heart, skeletal muscle, nerve tissue and brain cannot make enough ribose to manage their needs when the cells are stressed.*

Supports normal healthy mood, cardio and nerve function.* L-Methylfolate is important for normal production of serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine, and is essential for converting homocysteine to methionine.* Based on scientific research, our L-Methylfolate is a more active and bioavailable form of folate and is the only form of folate to cross the blood-brain-barrier. Use it to help: Support: normal mood* Support: cardio and nerve function* Support: biosynthesis of neurotransmitters The name change 5-MTHF to L-Methylfolate, reflects the current nomenclature in the marketplace and most commonly known name. The wording in the Supplement Facts has changed from L-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate to L-5-Methylfolate. Our products remain the same. We still use pure S isomer (L) methylfolate from Extrafolate S® and Quatrefolic® made by Gnosis Bio in Italy. We label only the active amount of the compounds with total compound amount in parenthesis. For example: Folate 5mg (from 6.8 mg L-5- Methylfolate, calcium salt).

SAMe is a very unstable, hygroscopic compound. The most common delivery form is the coated tablet which includes shellacs, waxes, and plastics containing phthalates- known endocrine disruptors. For years, Metabolic Maintenance has avoided these additives by combining SAMe with calcium and magnesium to keep it dry, making small batches, constant refrigeration, and a 6 month shelf-life. Now there is an alternative! One of our trusted ingredient partners, Gnosis S.p. A. of Italy, has found a way to combine SAMe with calcium that makes it shelf-stable at room temperature. We will continue to make small, fresh batches, but we can pass on to our customers the convenience and savings of regular shipping and storage.

The power of the gastrointestinal (GI) microbiome over human health is becoming increasingly apparent. Over 500 different microorganisms have been identified from the human gut. Beneficial microorganisms produce compounds including digestive enzymes and lactic acid that keep our bowels, and our body, functioning well. Many pathogenic organisms also reside there, but will not overgrow and become a problem unless the bowel environment becomes imbalanced often by use of antibiotics. This is called dysbiosis. Dysbiosis can produce GI discomfort, and interfere with proper nutrition and immune function. Happy Belly® was formulated in collaboration with Metametrix Labs to aid in restoring a normal balance of microorganisms to the GI tract. The ingredients are the ones found most effective for ridding the gut of harmful organisms based on stool sample analysis.*

CoQ10, a powerful antioxidant, has been shown to be beneficial for heart health and supporting energy metabolism at the cellular level. All of our CoQ10 products use natural, fermented Japanese material. This natural form provides optimal bioactivity.*
