The last multivitamin you will ever need!

The Ultimate MultiVitamin by Ortho Molecular Products

MitoCORE (r) provides essential mitochondrial micronutrients and an intelligent combination of alpha lipoic, N-acetyl Cystine, and Acetyl L Carnitine to increase cellular energy production.

To function at their best, the cells and organs of the body need to have enough energy. The powerhouse of cells, the mitochondria, contains nutrients and enzymes essential for cellular energy metabolism. They also convert food into usable energy (adenosine triphosphate, ATP). ATP is the primary source of energy in all cells. A sufficient fuel supply is essential for mitochondrial production. It also needs to be rich in antioxidants that can neutralize free radical byproducts. Maintaining optimal health is vital to preserving our energy resources and increasing energy output.

Poor nutrition, stress, lack of sleep, and prescription medication can all lead to a rapid use up of energy reserves that can't be replenished. Even vital biologic systems can cause energy shortages that need to be repaired.

MitoCORE (r) has been scientifically developed based on published research to increase mitochondrial reserves and recharge cell energy production. MitoCORE (r) contains the powerful antioxidant trio alpha lipoic, N-acetyl cysteine, and Acetyl L–carnitine. These substances have been shown to replenish cellular energy and primary cellular antioxidant pools with vitamins E, C, and glutathione. MitoCORE (r) also contains essential micronutrients/phytonutrients like green tea, broccoli seed extract, and Resveratrol to protect mitochondria and continue renewing the energy cycle.

Acetyl L-Carnitine

Acetyl L-carnitine (ALC), an amino acid, is associated with higher energy production. It has been proven to increase the flow of free fatty acids, which are the fuel source of mitochondria, and thus, provide a significant boost in energy generation. Free radical production can increase with age and may lead to decreased energy production. ALC has been shown to increase cellular energy (ATP) and can be combined with lipoic acid to lower oxidative stress. ALC has also been shown to support the immune system by protecting CD4-CD8 immune cells and keeping the reproduction lymphocytes responsible for detecting and eliminating invader antigens.

N-Acetyl Cysteine

N-acetyl Cysteine (NAC), an antioxidant, scavenges free radicals and promotes liver detoxification. NAC has been shown to increase glutathione production, an essential antioxidant in the body. Glutathione is an antioxidant that also activates T-cells. This helps to maintain an immune system balance.

Alpha Lipoic Acid

Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is a powerful antioxidant that also serves a synergistic function in recharging other antioxidants like vitamin C, vitamin E and CoQ 10. Detoxification is also an essential function of lipoic acid. Research has shown that ALA and acetyl L-carnitine can help reduce oxidative stress. Oxidative stress can cause damage to DNA, proteins, mitochondrial membranes, and lipids. It also contributes to the functional decline in mitochondria, cells, tissues, and eventually organs like the brain.

Resveratrol

The polyphenol molecule Resveratrol can be found in grapes and cranberries and at high levels in wine. Polyphenols are antioxidants that protect plants against damage from radiation, bacteria, and fungi. Resveratrol is thought to be the reason for the "French Paradox," which is the high level of cardiovascular health in French, despite high levels of fat. Resveratrol supports optimal immune function and has been proven to have antioxidant properties.

Broccoli Seed Oil

Broccoli seed extract has a high level of glucoraphanin. This compound is a precursor to sulphoraphane. Sulphoraphane, a powerful antioxidant found in the body, also supports detoxification as well as immune response. Sulphoraphane has been proven to increase intracellular glutathione and induce Phase II detoxification enzymes.

Green Tea (EGCG).

The immune-supporting properties of green tea polyphenols are well known. They have been shown to be a significant antioxidant, probiotic, and immune-supporting properties. Green tea polyphenols' hydroxyl group supports antioxidant activity by creating complexes of free radicals and neutralizing them. This reduces oxidative damage in the body. Green tea polyphenols also promote liver detoxification enzymes. This encourages the elimination of harmful chemicals from the body.

Micronutrients

The optimal levels of critical nutrients, enzyme cofactors, and vitamins are essential to increase cell energy production. MitoCORE (r) is a multivitamin that provides optimal backbone vitamins and minerals to increase energy output and meet daily nutritional requirements.
