Balance D - 60 Capsules

Description

NeuroScience Balance D

Contains ingredients important for the synthesis of dopamine, a catecholamine important for positive affect, mood, cognition, and craving control.

The Science:

Catecholamines

A class of neurotransmitters responsible for many functions in the nervous and endocrine systems

• Catecholamines play an important role in mood, energy, memory, attention, and cognition

Dopamine is important for craving control

Dopaminergic function is critical in the regulation of cravings, reward based behaviors, and weight management

• Dopamine release from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) to the nucleus accumbans is the primary pathway in which reward based behaviors such as cravings are modulated
• Impaired signaling from decreased dopamine release or receptors (DRD2) is thought to reduce sensitivity to natural reward-based behavior in vitro

Balance D provides ingredients to support dopamine synthesis

• N-acetyl-L-tyrosine and Mucuna cochinchinensis seed extract (99% L-DOPA) are amino acid precursors to dopamine
• Vitamin B6 is a necessary cofactor for the synthesis of dopamine

Formulated for a comprehensive pathway approach

Produced in excess, dopamine is oxidized into quinones, free radicals, and reactive oxygen species (ROS)

• Quinones react with glutathione (GSH) and deplete levels of the reduced GSH and total antioxidant capacity
• Excessive production of ROS and decreased antioxidant function contributes to cellular damage, dysfunction, and/or death

Balance D contains ingredients for the synthesis of glutathione

• N-acetyl-L-cysteine is the precursor to L-cysteine; L-cysteine is an amino acid precursor in the synthesis of glutathione
• Selenium is a micronutrient that helps to comprise selenoproteins; these proteins are crucial for brain function and the enzyme glutathione peroxidase (GPx)
