Dragon Pharma Liver Guard

Dragon Pharma Liver Guard, The body is an amazing machine. It can lift extraordinary amounts of weight, run marathons, repair, rebuild and detoxify itself, all internally if everything is functioning correctly. One of the main systems for handling the detoxification of the body is the liver and if it isn’t functioning properly, everything else will be out of whack. That is why we created Liver Daily Rx.

Formulated using cutting edge, scientifically proven ingredients for supporting healthy liver function, natural detoxification processes and providing cellular health with potent antioxidant support. Featuring TUDCA, a high potency bile salt that stimulates bile flow, reduces liver enzymes, and aids in mitochondria function in the liver It also features l-glutathione, an ingredient proven to support detoxification, immune system health, prevent skin pigmentation and provide additional antioxidant support.

Science

TUDCA

Naturally occurring, water soluble bile salt

Stimulates increases in bile release and improves overall bile quality; Shown to increase bile flow by up to 250%1

Aids mitochondria in liver maintain proper protein folding process, reduce free radicals and stop liver cells from programmed cell death2

Reduce liver enzymes dramatically; Some studies have shown it ca reduce significantly in as little as 8 weeks3

Shown to aid in healing liver bile ducts via aiding in delivering ATP into bile liquid which adds added protection to cells in the liver4

L-Glutathione

Tripeptide composed of glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine

Shown to play a vital role in supporting cellular function

Major antioxidant that protects cells from free radical exposure; Plays an important role in scavenging reactive oxygen and recycling other antioxidants (Vitamins C & E)5,6

Shown to support healthy liver function; Conjugates with heavy metals and toxins helping the body to eliminate these harmful substances7

Supports the body’s immune response by reducing oxidation which may help to improve immune cell health8

Promotes Skin Health; shown to potentially Inhibit the activity of tyrosinase and production of melanin which helps to prevent peroxy lipid generation by scavenging reactive oxygen9

AstraGin®

Amplifies the absorption of ingredients including peptides, amino acids, fatty acids, vitamins, and phytonutrients by up-regulating the absorption specific mRNA and transporters10

Shown to rejuvenate ulcerated and damaged intestinal walls and reduce intestinal submucosa inflammation11

Supports digestive system by maintaining a healthy microbiota population via mending ulcerated and damaged intestinal epithelial cell surfaces for the microbiota to populate12

Helps support stronger immune functions by mending ulcerated epithelial cells and reducing the inflammation in intestines11
