LVR Formula™ -
A broad-spectrum, synergistic combination of concentrated herbal extracts that nutritionally supports liver function and protects the liver from free radical damage that can impair proper functioning.
What Is It?
LVR Formula offers a broad-spectrum, synergistic combination of
herbs and nutrients with powerful antioxidant properties designed to
protect and promote liver cell health and tissue function.*
Uses For LVR Formula
Liver Tissue Support:
LVR Formula helps rejuvenate liver function
with antioxidants designed to offer multifaceted liver cell protection.
The flavonoid components in silymarin, curcumin and artichoke have
powerful free radical scavenging activities, helping to protect and
promote liver cell health. Studies indicate that silymarin supports
metabolism and detoxification through the liver, hepatocyte protein
synthesis and DNA integrity within the liver cells. Curcumin offers
additional cellular protection. Luteolin is a key component found
in artichoke. Research suggests that it promotes healthy matrix
metalloproteinase activity to support hepatic cell regeneration
and liver tissue health. N-Acetyl cysteine (NAC) is a precursor of
the endogenous antioxidant glutathione. In the body, NAC restores
glutathione levels in the liver and helps protect the liver from toxic
metabolites produced during normal detoxification processes.
Experimental models suggest that the antioxidant properties of alpha
lipoic acid provide further liver cell protection.*

Are There Any Potential Drug Interactions?

and possibly the dose needed for treatment. Curcumin may react
with blood thinning medications. Consult your physician for more
