GlucodOX

GlucodOX™ - Natural metabolic support*
(GU-MCT810 Commiphora mukul)

GlucodOX™ is a proprietary nutraceutical ingredient complex that includes a Commiphora mukul (guggul) extract and a medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) oil composed of C8 and C10 fatty acids. In order to optimize the guggul extract, we utilize a supercritical CO2-co-solvent extraction with ethanol. The result is a concentrated extract containing active guggulsterones, which are standardized to 2.0% by HPLC analysis. The guggulsterones in GlucodOX™ are reportedly linked to several mechanisms that support healthy lipid metabolism, glucose metabolism, and cellular energy.* 

This metabolic and energy support is further enhanced by blending the extract with natural-origin MCT oil. MCTs also promote healthy energy production by gaining rapid access to the mitochondria (the energy producing organelle in cells). Given the high energy density, the rapid rate of absorption, and the quick metabolic conversion into cellular energy, MCTs naturally complement the guggulsterone’s activity and give GlucodOX™ its unique performance characteristics.

Research shows the beneficial mechanisms of GlucodOX™ can help:

1. Promote cellular glucose uptake by significantly promoting insulin sensitivity* [2-7, 19]

2. Support cholesterol levels already within the normal range by inhibiting its natural production (Regulate HMG-CoA reductase).* [17, 20]

3. Regulate balanced transformation of pre-adipocytes to adipocytes (i.e. fat cells) and regulate triglyceride storage.* [11, 12, 18, 20, 21]

4. Stimulate AMPK activity—the nutrient/energy sensor researched for its role in supporting energy levels in cells throughout the body, promoting healthy mitochondrial biogensis, and supporting healthy transport of glucose.*

Based on the above, the powerful proprietary GU-MCT810 complex in GlucodOX™  can help maintain and support:

• Blood glucose levels already within the normal range*
• Healthy cholesterol levels already within the normal range *
• Enhanced cellular energy throughout the body*
• Balanced formation of fat cells and levels of fat storage*

GlucodOX™ is an effective addition to a healthy diet. It helps to promote healthy metabolic pathways that affect cellular energy, glucose utilization, and cholesterol regulation.  In combination with a healthy diet and exercise, GlucodOX™ can help you increase energy and stay healthy, longer.*

GlucodOX™ helps enhance cellular energy and regulate
Glucose and Cholesterol levels already within the normal range…
Lower the risk, let GlucodOX™ help you stay normal, longer
With increased energy and vitality.*
