Calcium-d-glucarate assists in the detoxification process as it forms conjugates with unwanted estrogenic hormones and environmental toxins, which are then eliminated from the body instead of being reabsorbed. Also helps in the development and maintenance of bones and teeth.

Calcium D Glucarate designs for health

Calcium D-Glucarate is calcium bound to d-glucaric acid, which is a natural compound produced in small amounts by the human body and is abundantly found in various plant foods such as broccoli, cabbage, kale, apples, oranges, and grapefruit. Research shows that d-glucaric acid derivatives such as calcium d-glucarate help support the body’s defense against toxins and excess sex hormones, making calcium d-glucarate a potential agent in aiding detoxification.

 

MECHANISM OF ACTION
In the GI tract, calcium d-glucarate is metabolized into three compounds, the most active being D-glucaro-1,4-lactone. This metabolite increases detoxification by inhibiting β-glucuronidase, an enzyme that can prevent proper and healthy excretion of potential toxins from the body. During liver detoxification some toxins and hormones such as estrogen, are cleared via glucuronidation – a process where glucuronic acid is attached to a toxin in order to create a less toxic conjugate that can be readily eliminated by the body. In the case of liver detoxification, the substrates are most often foreign xenobiotic substances such as drugs and pollutants, as well as endogenously produced
compounds like excess estrogens and androgens, mineralcorticoids, glucocorticoids, fatty acid derivatives, retinoids, and bile acids. Theses toxins and hormones, bound to glucuronic acid, are now ready to be safely eliminated.

BENEFITS
• Supports detoxification of xenobiotics
• Supports healthy hormone metabolism and excretion
