Magnesium is a mineral that is involved in over 300 biochemical processes in the body. One of its most important functions is that it plays a key role in producing energy and maintaining muscle, heart and nerve function. Unfortunately most people do not have sufficient levels for optimal health, as studies suggest that 50-90% of people are deficient in magnesium.  Muscle stiffness, chronic irritability and fatigue are common signs of deficiency.

Glycine is well known as a calming amino acid, and is combined with magnesium in Magnesium Glycinate. This combination is easily absorbed and does not have a laxative effect like some forms of magnesium. Due to the calming and relaxing effect of both glycine and magnesium this combination has been used successfully for chronic pain and muscle tension, as well as to help improve sleep quality.

Magnesium Glycinate is a chelated magnesium supplement that offers superior absorption and gastrointestinal tolerability. Magnesium Glycinate is ideal for quickly correcting magnesium deficiencies and is especially helpful for people with insomnia, anxiety, muscle tightness and chronic pain.

• Unblended and fully reacted form
• Gentle on bowels for no intestinal upset
• Calming effects for stress and anxiety

Thyro Support™ is designed to support an underactive thyroid, sometimes referred to as subclinical hypothyroidism. Hypothyroidism is a medical condition in which there is insufficient thyroid hormone production. Subclinical hypothyroidism, while less severe, still has detrimental effects which can include fatigue, weight gain, cardiovascular problems, oversensitivity to cold, dry skin, brittle nails, constipation, overall weakness and depression. The ingredients in Thyro Support™ provide the raw materials for the production of thyroid hormones, and also help to increase the conversion of the hormone T4 into its more effective form, T3.

These ingredients include the amino acid tyrosine, herbs Coleus forskohlii and Bacopa monnieri, and the essential minerals iodine, zinc, copper, and selenium.

Those who have an underactive thyroid, have been diagnosed with subclinical hypothyroidism, or those suffering from the symptoms of an underactive thyroid, including fatigue and weight gain, can benefit from Thyro Support™. Since the thyroid is closely linked to the adrenal glands, those looking for adrenal support or who are under chronic stress can also benefit from supporting the thyroid.

• Supports an underactive thyroid
• Effective fatigue and adrenal support
• Supports healthy weight management
• Vegetarian formula with nutrients and botanical extracts

Coenzyme Q10 is a fat-soluble, vitamin-like nutrient that helps produce energy in all cells of the body. It does so by supporting the mitochondria, the tiny power plants in each of the body’s cells. Coenzyme Q10 is in fact one of the most important and modifiable factors in the production of ATP (cellular energy) in the mitochondria. Mitochondrial dysfunction and Coenzyme Q10 deficiencies have been implicated in many conditions such as fatigue, fibromyalgia, cardiovascular problems, neurodegenerative diseases and more.

Coenzyme Q10 is also noted for its powerful antioxidant activity, and even “recharges” other antioxidants by keeping them in their reduced, active states. Doctors have been recommending Coenzyme Q10to patients on standard heart medications for the last four decades, as statin medications are known to reduce Coenzyme Q10 levels in the body.

The aging and elderly would greatly benefit from adding Coenzyme Q10 to their diet. Those dealing with cardiovascular issues or taking statin medications should speak to their doctor about supplementing with Coenzyme Q10. Athletes or those dealing with fatigue would also benefit from Coenzyme Q10 to boost energy levels.

Curcumin is a substance from the turmeric plant (Curcuma longa), a spice commonly used in East Asian curry dishes. A substantial number of pre-clinical and human clinical trials have highlighted the health-promoting effects of curcumin, namely its role as an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and pain-relieving agent. Biochemical analysis has shown that curcumin is insoluble in water and gastrointestinal fluid, is rapidly metabolized and poorly absorbed by cells, has poor blood brain barrier permeability, and is rapidly eliminated from the body.

All of these factors limit its use as an efficient natural functional agent. As such, the focus has shifted to developing more effective mechanisms of curcumin delivery in order to reap its many therapeutic effects. Curcumin Ultra is a revolutionary product from AOR’s Ultra Series. It is a unique combination of free-form curcuminoids (CurQfen®) with water-soluble turmeric polysaccharides (Turmacin®). This formulation not only resolves the bioavailability issues of other curcumin products; it also provides the highest levels of bioactive free-form curcuminoids on the market! Curcumin Ultra is effective for multiple conditions including acute and chronic pain and inflammation.

Active Green Tea is a high-potency, standardized green tea extract providing antioxidants that promote longevity and boost metabolism. EgCG, or epigallocatechin gallate, is the largest and most potent of several catechins found in green tea which have been touted for their vast array of health benefits, including weight loss, anti-aging and healthy cellular differentiation. Extensive epidemiological evidence shows that people consuming high amounts of Japanese Sencha green tea have fewer heart problems and liver disorders, healthier cholesterol levels, and are generally better protected from the most common afflictions today.

The “gold standard” of green tea is Japanese Sencha, which contains about 150 mg of EgCG per cup. In just 3 capsules, Active Green Tea provides the equivalent of 10 cups of Sencha green tea, the amount research has shown to be associated with the greatest health benefits. The citizens of Japan boast the longest average lifespan in the world, and research shows that people consuming high amounts of Japanese Sencha green tea live longer.

AOR’s Active Green Tea is for people who want powerful antioxidant protection, healthy cellular growth and differentiation, anti-aging effects, weight loss support and the powerful benefits of green tea without having to consume up to 10 cups per day.

Oxidative stress and mitochondrial damage have been implicated in age-related cognitive decline and many chronic diseases. Cogni-Q® contains a high dose of the well-known antioxidant Coenzyme Q10 along with Pyrroloquinoline Quinone (PQQ), a recently discovered B-vitamin-like nutrient. PQQ and CoQ10 have been studied in combination and were shown to improve memory and cognition in elderly subjects after just 3 months.

They have also been shown to reduce neurodegeneration thanks to their antioxidant functions, their ability to reduce mitochondrial damage, and their involvement in cellular energy production. PQQ has shown the unique ability to signal and activate the generation of new mitochondria, an action that no other nutrient can do.

• Supports healthy neuron function

Ortho Iron Vegan is a vegan and lactoferrin-free version of Ortho Iron, AOR’s award winning iron formula. It includes synergistic nutrients that are necessary for proper iron absorption, and is useful for treating iron-deficiency anemia. Ortho Iron Vegan is well tolerated, and doesn’t tend to cause the side effects common to iron supplements such as nausea or constipation.

Anemia is the most common blood disorder in the world and is characterized by a reduced number of red blood cells. There are several different types of anemia, including iron deficiency anemia which is a result of low iron levels, and pernicious anemia which is caused by vitamin B12 and folate deficiency. Regardless of cause, symptoms of anemia include debilitating fatigue, weakness and difficulty concentrating, all of which improve with treatment. Ortho Iron Vegan provides iron, vitamin B12 and folate, and promotes proper red blood cell formation, and is therefore effective for the treatment and prevention of both iron deficiency and pernicious anemia.

Ortho Iron Vegan is formulated with supporting nutrients such as vitamins B6, vitamin C, zinc and copper, which help improve iron absorption while reducing the risk of side effects. Vegans and vegetarians will benefit from Ortho Iron Vegan because they are at a higher risk of anemia, as well as iron and B12 deficiency, simply because their diets do not provide the more absorbable, heme form of iron found in meat, and are lower in vitamin B12.
