Ingredients explained
Vitamin B6 (as pyridoxine HCl)
Vitamin B6 acts as a cofactor for enzymes involved in amino acid and glycogen metabolism, which may support energy-producing pathways.
Caution: High intakes over time may cause nerve-related discomfort in some people; stick to the suggested use unless advised otherwise.
Soy lecithin granules
Lecithin supplies phospholipids such as phosphatidylcholine that help form cell membranes and support normal fat emulsification and transport.
Caution: Contains soy, which may not be suitable for those with soy allergies.
Atlantic kelp (Ascophyllum nodosum) (standardized to 0.4% iodine)
Kelp provides iodine, a key micronutrient the thyroid uses to make hormones that regulate metabolic processes.
Caution: Provides iodine; those limiting iodine or with thyroid concerns should be mindful of total iodine intake.
Apple cider vinegar
Apple cider vinegar supplies organic acids that may influence carbohydrate breakdown and post-meal metabolic responses.
Caution: May cause stomach discomfort for sensitive individuals; taking with food and water can improve tolerance.
Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) (aerial parts)
Alfalfa contains saponins and phytonutrients that may contribute antioxidant activity and general nutritive support.
Caution: Alfalfa may interact with certain medications and is not suitable for individuals with sensitivities to legume plants.
How they work together
Vitamin B6 supports enzyme-driven protein and glycogen metabolism, while apple cider vinegar and lecithin contribute to how fats and carbohydrates are handled after meals. Kelp provides iodine for thyroid hormone production, adding a metabolic regulation angle, and alfalfa offers phytonutrients for overall nutritive support.
