BENEFITS OF IP6 & INOSITOL*
IMMUNE SYSTEM SUPPORT*
A specific ratio of IP6 and Inositol was originally issued a patent for its ability to support
Natural Killer Cell activity, our immune system's first line of defense.*
​
ANTIOXIDANT FOR OPTIMAL CELLULAR HEALTH*
Recognized as a potent antioxidant, IP6 acts to neutralize the damaging effects of free radicals
on body cells and has been shown to enhance the immune system and support healthy cellular activity.*
​
SUPPORTS HEALTHY IRON LEVELS*
Iron is an essential nutrient for cellular functions. However, too much iron is highly toxic to human health. The calcium magnesium phytate found in IP6 Gold contains varying levels of phytic acid. Once metabolized, phytic acid is released to bind to or chelate excess or free iron and excrete it from the body. Left unchecked, unbound iron quickly oxidizes to form free radicals (pro-oxidants) and Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). This is a clear illustration of how IP6 acts as an antioxidant.*
​
IMPROVING DNA INTEGRITY*
Developments from laboratory data suggest IP6 and Inositol may play an important role in DNA functions. Enhancing DNA function helps maintain a healthy genetic profile. Millions of dollars are currently being spent in research related to DNA profiling and alteration. Here we see a very natural compound plays an important role in this complex mechanism.*
​
SUPPORTS HEALTHY BONES*
IP6 Gold contains calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus which help support healthy bones and teeth. Additionally, a pilot study is being planned to examine the effects of IP6 on bone cells known as osteoclasts and osteoblasts. These cells are key to healthy bone growth and remodeling.*
​
HEALTHY GLUCOSE METABOLISM*
Inositol has long been recognized for supporting glucose metabolism. Recent research now indicates that the combination of IP6 + Inositol supports pancreatic beta cell activity which is critical for healthy glucose metabolism. *
​
CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH*
IP6 + Inositol enhances cardiovascular health by supporting healthy inflammation, cholesterol levels, iron levels, platelets, and helping to minimize calcification.*
​
HEALTHY RENAL FUNCTION*
One of the first uses of IP6 as far back as 1958 was for its ability to reduce calcium in the urine and inhibit the likelihood of calcium oxalate crystallization (kidney stones). New research from Japan now indicates that IP6 supports healthy uric acid levels also.*
​
NEED A LIFT?*
Several studies and experiments have indicated that IP6 + Inositol may play an important role in supporting neurotransmitters, serotonin, acetylcholine and GABA. For this reason, it becomes easier to understand why researchers find benefit in mood, clarity, sleep and overall mental health support.
It has also been noted that those with high intake of caffeine have suppressed levels of inositol. Could it be that our modern-day consumption of excess caffeine is creating inositol deficiency in the brain resulting in declining mental health? Additionally, some of the most debilitating brain issues can be linked to poor glucose metabolism, high heavy metals such as iron and antioxidant status throughout our lifetime. In each of these cases IP6 + Inositol may play a vital role in disarming many of these harmful effects on overall brain health.*
CELLULAR ENERGY PRODUCTION*
Since almost every cell of the human body has an inositol phosphate pool, it makes sense that yes indeed IP6 + Inositol plays a role within the energy factories of the cells known as the mitochondria. These distinctive properties in energy metabolism may also play a role in cell signaling and the bioactivity of many additional cellular functions.*
FINAL THOUGHTS
IP6 + Inositol are fascinating molecules offering a wide range of impactful health benefits. Both of these nutrients are considered safe and have received GRAS Status (Generally Recognized as Safe) from the FDA. There is no doubt that more research needs to be done and will continue globally. In the meantime, IP6 Gold can and should be recommended as a daily supplement just like multivitamins for a happy, healthy life!*
Healthy Cells = Healthy Humans (pets too!)
