STOP is a powerful formula that may aid in reduction of oxidative stress that can negatively affect many systems of the body including the cardiovascular, neurological, respiratory, and musculoskeletal systems. This effective product features:
- A robust amount of vitamin B3 as niacinamide, delivering support for the heart, healthy blood lipid levels and nerves.
- Systemic enzymatic support from bromelain, papain & serrapeptidase.
- Nutrients utilized for their ability via a wide range of mechanisms to quell high levels of oxidative stress: quercetin, MSM, turmeric, Boswellia, ginger, rutin, skullcap and N-acetyl-cysteine.
Aids in Inhibiting Inflammation of the Cardiovascular, Respiratory, and MusculoskeletalSystems.* This quality formula is designed to reduce systemic inflammation and also to
help limit free radical formation, an important mechanism in protection against cardiovascular disease.*Inflammation occurs in response to injury or trauma and it can be either an acute or a chronic condition. During an inflammatory process, white blood cells release mediators like prostaglandins, cytokines, and leukotrienes that serve to increase blood flow and leakage of fluid into the injured area. With regard to cardiovascular disease, it is the passage of oxidized cholesterol from the blood into the inner layer of blood vessels that triggers an inflammatory cascade leading to atherosclerosis. Antioxidants help to reduce
the damage caused by oxidative stress.
NIACINAMIDE
A form of vitamin B3, possesses antioxidant & anti-inflammatory actions. Niacin has been used to help inflammatory skin conditions,
airway diseases, and arthritis, among other diseases.*
L GLUTAMINE
An amino acid used in abundance throughout the body, especially the gastrointestinal tract. Glutamine plays many physiological roles, such
as reducing oxidative metabolism, inflammation, and lipolysis.* It can also assist the body in recycling and producing more glutathione, a
powerful antioxidant. In addition, glutamine has been used to boost immune cell activity and prevent diarrhea.*
MSM
Decreases inflammation and is often used for the maintenance of connective tissue and joint health.* MSM may also assist in glutathione
regeneration since it provides a source of sulfur, one of the components of glutathione.
QUERCETIN AND RUTIN
These anti-inflammatory flavonoids, for example, in a study by Kleeman and colleagues, quercitin decreased the inflammatory
marker CRP & the cardiovascular risk factor fibrinogen and it reduced atherosclerotic lesion growth. Quercetin also has been shown to
prevent the oxidation of LDL cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and lower blood pressure and blood sugar. Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is an herb with a
wide variety of therapeutic applications borne out by research studies. Turmeric interferes with the formation of pro-inflammatory mediators.
Curcumin, a component of turmeric, can down-regulate inflammatory transcription factors; protect the heart muscle from ischemic damage;
help the pain & swelling of arthritis; reduce the oxidation of LDL; reduce atherosclerotic lesions & lower blood sugar in people with
diabetes.*
BROMELAIN AND PAPAIN
Proteolytic enzyme extracts from pineapple and papya and are beneficial where edema inflammation and thrombosis occur.* These
enzymes breakdown inflammation at their site and accelerate drainage.* The use of these enzymes decrease healing time in post
operative tissues, trauma, strains, contusions and other injuries. They are also effective general digestive aids.*
BOSWELLIA (Boswellia carteri) is a traditional Indian medicinal
plant. Clinical research confirms its benefits in improving many
cardiovascular and systemic inflammatory conditions, like
osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and
asthma. Boswellia also possesses antioxidant, anti-platelet,
anti-thrombotic, and anti-coagulant properties.
GINGER (Zingiber officianalis)
A common medicinal and culinary plant that is known as a digestive tonic. Ginger has a variety of medicinal uses: it is analgesic,
anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant.* Ginger also possessesanti-platelet activity and may reduce stroke risk.*
N-ACETYL-CYSTEINE (NAC)
NAC has many cardiovascular benefits such as CRP (an inflammatory marker), improving arterial endothelial function &
reducing damage to the heart muscle. It has the added benefit of increasing levels of glutathione, a critical antioxidant
