Adren-All contains a blend of key micronutrients and botanicals specifically formulated to support healthy energy metabolism and provide antioxidants that helps protect cells against the oxidative damage caused by free radicals.
Overview
Fatigue is a psychobiological state caused by prolonged periods of demanding activity and exertion.1 Fatigue can be either mental or physical in nature and can start affecting performance.1 Reactive oxygen species and other free radicals can lead to oxidative stress and damaging cells.2 Adren-All provides a unique blend of botanicals and micronutrients that support healthy energy metabolism, and provides antioxidants to protect against oxidative damage.
Rhodiola rosea Root Extract
Rhodiola rosea is a source of antioxidants which helps to reduce the amount of damaging free radicals within the body. Free radicals are the toxic byproducts of oxygen metabolism that are the cause of oxidative damage to cells.3 Rhodiola rosea has demonstrated the increase in the activity of antioxidant enzymes such as catalase, superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase.4 As well, total plasma antioxidant levels and superoxide dismutase were increased in rowers supplemented with Rhodiola rosea.5
Licorice Root Extract
Licorice root (Glycyrrhiza uralensis) has been traditionally used in herbal medicine due to the numerous supportive roles of its active ingredient, glycyrrhizin.6
Micronutrient Blend
Adren-All contains a combination of micronutrients that are crucial for energy metabolism. Vitamin B6 is a cofactor of enzymatic reactions for metabolism and critical in the synthesis of new tissue and the body’s ability to absorb vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin), also a cofactor of reactions for metabolism, is important for the formation and health of red blood cells responsible for oxygen delivery essential for recovery after exertion of the body. Mild deficiencies of these vitamins are linked to muscle weakness, tiredness, lightheadedness, and poor mental performance. Vitamin C cannot be synthesized by humans and is therefore an essential nutrient that must be consumed in the diet. Among its numerous health-promoting properties, vitamin C helps in wound healing, connective tissue formation and the development and maintenance of bones, cartilage, teeth and gums as well as serves as an antioxidant for the maintenance of good health.
Adrenal Concentrate
For thousands of years, glandular concentrates have been used in medicine to supply key nutrients to support the body. The concept of glandular therapy states that similar organ extracts from animals will support the same organ within humans by stimulating its activity.
