Calcium D-glucarate 500 mg, 60 caps

Support for liver, hormones and body balance

Calcium D-glucarate is the calcium salt of D-glucaric acid - a naturally occurring compound present in various fruits and vegetables, such as apples, oranges and cruciferous vegetables. It is often used as a dietary supplement due to its potential benefits, particularly in relation to the body's natural detoxification processes.

D-glucarate's main courses of action:

• Supports the body's natural detoxification processes, including those of the liver.
• Supports hormonal balance by participating in the metabolism and elimination of selected hormone metabolites (including oestrogen).
• Has been analysed in studies in the context of hormone-related processes.
• Supports elimination of selected metabolites through natural excretion pathways.
• Supports healthy intestinal microflora and digestion.
• Exhibits antioxidant properties in the context of oxidative stress.

Detoxification and glucuronidation
Calcium D-glucarate supports liver function and enhances the glucuronidation process. Glucuronidation is a phase II detoxification pathway that helps the body eliminate selected metabolites, including hormone metabolites (such as estrogen) and other compounds, by conjugating them with glucuronic acid. This allows them to become more water-soluble and more easily removed from the body.

Hormonal balance
By participating in the metabolic processes and elimination of selected hormone metabolites, calcium D-glucarate can support the maintenance of hormonal balance. This may be important for people who care about supporting physiological processes related to hormonal balance.

Research directions
Some studies analyze calcium D-glucarate in the context of metabolic processes related to hormone balance and elimination of selected metabolites. However, more research is needed to fully understand the possible relationships and significance of these observations.

Calcium D-glucarate is generally considered safe for most people when taken in recommended doses. As with any supplement, it is advisable to consult a doctor before taking it, especially for those with underlying medical conditions or those taking medications.
