ALAmax™ CR 120 Tablets

Pro-Tip: This is a key compound used to maximize anti-oxidant activity in your cells.  I use this frequently in metabolic syndrome as there is data that it helps with insulin pathways and glucose metabolism.  Also frequently use for neuropathy especially if your on metformin.

Appe-Curb™ 240 Capsules

Pro-Tip:  Its a lot of capsules but if taken correctly you notice the cravings and compulsive overeating is abated and this is working on the neurotransmitter pathways of appetite.  Nothing replaces discipline but this does reinforce it!  Its like training wheels on a kids bike, eventually once they get balance they can be removed. Start with 4 caps 30 minutes before your largest meal.   Appe-Curb™ contains key amino acids to support the biosynthesis of neurotransmitters involved in appetite control, carbohydrate or fat cravings, and mood.

ALAmax™ Protect 120 Capsules

Pro-Tip:  I have used this for years for pre-diabetes and lipid management.  This is a  great combo product with both ALA and Berberine. I have seen it work as well as low dose metformin when taken 2 caps twice a day.  For patients needing a higher potency I recommend the Alamax CR (one per day and Berberine ES-5 (twice a day). ALAmax™ Protect is designed to help support cardiometabolic health. It delivers alpha-lipoic acid (ALA), the plant alkaloid berberine, and biotin in one convenient formula. These ingredients have been observed to support insulin activity and glucose metabolism. Research also suggests a role for berberine in supporting normal A1C levels.*

BergaCor® Plus 60 Tablets

Pro-Tip: I've used this in many occasions to promote cardiovascular health and cholesterol management.  Although these companies can't make claims I will confirm that I see about a 10-12% decrease in LDL cholesterol with reduced inflammation and improved glucose numbers in those who take it twice a day.  BergaCor® Plus combines the antioxidant activity of bergamot (Citrus bergamia) with the tonifying superfruit of amla (Phyllanthus emblica). Bergamot is used traditionally in Italy to support cardiovascular wellness. Amla is revered in Ayurveda for its role in cardiovascular health, and this use has been validated in modern human clinical trials. Research suggests that the lipid- and glucose-balancing flavonoids of bergamot and amla help maintain healthy cholesterol levels already within normal range and support healthy blood glucose metabolism.*
