Cytokine Suppress™ with EGCG 30 capsules Life Extension

$21.75

Cytokine Suppress™ with EGCG includes mung beans and green tea, which support the natural process of the immune system's inflammatory activity. This potent benefit is delivered by the flavonoids and other molecules found primarily in the seed coat of the mung bean and the compound EGCG (epigallocatechin-3-gallate) in green tea. These compounds work together to help modulate a healthy immune system response. Add Cytokine Suppress™ with EGCG to your supplement regimen today to promote a balanced inflammatory response.

Benefits at a Glance

Contains extract of mung bean and EGCG from green tea
Helps regulate levels of HMGB1 protein
Aids in controlling levels of inflammatory cytokines
Balances inflammatory response
As you age, maintaining a balanced inflammatory response becomes increasingly important to maintaining your whole-body health.1-3 That's where Cytokine Suppress™ with EGCG comes in.

Mung beans and green tea have long been used in traditional Asian cuisine and medicine to support the natural process of the immune system's inflammatory activity. Acting together, these compounds help regulate levels, among those within the normal range, of a protein molecule known as HMGB1.4-6 This molecule controls the signaling compounds known as cytokines that generate inflammation.7,8 What's more, the mung bean seed coat extract has been shown to support the body's natural antioxidant defense system.9

The result of this beneficial modulatory support is a healthy and balanced inflammatory response, which is particularly important as we age. Add Cytokine Suppress™ with EGCG to your supplement regimen today to promote a balanced inflammatory response.
Take one (1) capsule daily without food, or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner.

CoffeeGenic® Green Coffee Extract 400mg 90 capsules Life Extension

$24.00

People who take extraordinary steps to limit their carbohydrate exposure may still be experiencing higher-than-desired blood sugar levels throughout the day. The reason is that blood sugar can surge to high levels following meals. And that high level can last for hours … even an entire day!

Studies show even in people with normal fasting glucose levels, gaining control of after-meal surges may provide additional support for cardiovascular and metabolic health.1-4

Green coffee extract is a natural compound that addresses this widespread problem. In fact, a 400 mg dose was shown to induce a remarkable 24% drop in after-meal blood sugar after 30 minutes while 200 mg generated a 14% drop!5 The reason is chlorogenic acid, a polyphenol found in the green coffee bean.

Chlorogenic acid has been shown to inhibit excess activity of glucose-6-phosphatase.6-8 The glucose-6-phosphatase enzyme triggers glucose formation from non-carbohydrate substrates and glycogen release from the liver, both of which can create excess glucose in the blood. Neutralizing excess glucose-6-phosphatase is essential for most people to achieve optimal glucose control.

Another means by which chlorogenic acid supports healthy after-meal glucose levels is by targeting the inhibition of the alpha-glucosidase enzyme. This intestinal enzyme breaks apart complex sugars and enhances their absorption into the bloodstream.9

Chlorogenic acid also increases the signal protein for insulin receptors in liver cells.10

Why CoffeeGenic® Green Coffee Extract?

Coffee grows on trees and the fruit is a berry. The berry contains green seeds, which are the “coffee beans.” The outer part of the berry is washed away to get to the seeds. The seed has a higher amount of phenolic acids than the berry.11

The problem with the roasted coffee you drink is that much of the beneficial phenolic content of the coffee beans is destroyed during the roasting process.

CoffeeGenic® Green Coffee Extract is produced from these green coffee beans. The resulting green coffee extract is standardized to 50% chlorogenic acids for maximum potency … maximum effect in helping to maintain healthy glucose levels already within normal range.11

This higher potency standalone version is the same clinical dose shown to induce a 24% drop in after-meal glucose spikes within 30 minutes5 … and is ideal for those who need additional glucose management support.
