Health Plus Kidney Cleanse

Health Plus Kidney Cleanse is a combination of clinically tested vitamins and herbs specifically created to keep the kidneys clear and functioning in a healthy manner.* The kidneys are vital organs of elimination for the body. The kidneys eliminate many harmful substances that are detoxified by the liver. They filter the blood and then reabsorb water and other selective substances back into the bloodstream.

What´s In It?

Bearberry Extract also known as Uva Ursi, is considered a water loss agent in the botanical classification of herbs.* This mild action can enhance the excretion of fluids from the body. Bearberry decreases the accumulation of uric acid, a natural component of urine.* Uric acid build up may crystallize and get deposited into the kidneys, joints and blood stream. Bearberry supports the membranes of the urinary system.*

Dandelion Root is a nourishing herb that contains highly assimilable minerals. In the botanical classification of herbs, it is considered a blood purifier, having most of its beneficial action on the liver.* To have healthy kidneys you must also have a healthy liver, as they both support the body´s detoxification process. Dandelion supports the liver by promoting bile secretion and provides a gentle cleansing action in the elimination of metabolic waste.* Dandelion has a mild water flushing action that aids the body´s removal of excess fluids through the kidneys.* The kidneys eliminate harmful substances that are detoxified by the liver.

Nettles is another nourishing herb rich in minerals, especially iron and potassium. It has mild water-loss action and aids the kidneys with elimination of uric acid.*

Yellow Dock is considered a bitter herb that promotes digestion and supports liver/kidney function.* It is high in some minerals including iron, manganese and potassium.

Short Buchu Leaf Extract has a mild water-loss action and immune supporting activity helpful with urinary system function.*

Chlorophyll is the pigment that makes plants green. Through photosynthesis, it absorbs sunlight energy and converts it into plant energy. When we consume Chlorophyll, it is transferred into our blood and cell tissue.* Scientifically, its molecular structure closely resembles human hemoglobin, the pigment that makes our blood red.

When taken internally, Chlorophyll can oxygenate human cells by helping to build red blood cells.* Its detoxifying and immune supporting qualities may be helpful for heavy metal build up.* Chlorophyll neutralizes acids and toxins in the blood and helps eliminate them from the body through the kidneys.* Chlorophyll is rich in vitamin K which forms a compound in the body that reduces the formation of calcium oxalate crystals which in turn promotes healthy kidneys.*

B vitamins are water soluble and are flushed out of the body regularly. They are not stored in the body and any excess is excreted. B vitamins must be replenished daily through whole foods and supplementation. B vitamins are necessary for a healthy nervous system and they assist the liver in the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates and proteins.* Stress, alcohol, tobacco, excessive sugar and caffeine can decrease the levels of B vitamins in the body.

Astaxanthin is a member of the carotenoid family and is a powerful newly discovered antioxidant that helps support against more types of free radicals than any other antioxidant.* It is highly bioavailable because it binds to a lipid (fat) molecule and enters the bloodstream more readily than other antioxidants.* Astaxanthin is a fat-soluble nutrient that is able to cross the blood-brain barrier, which promotes its effectiveness.*

The natural form of Astaxanthin is derived from the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis and is more effective as an antioxidant than beta-carotene.* Astaxanthin supports kidney function.* The mitochondria is the site of the cell´s energy production and metabolic activity. The advanced technology behind Astaxanthin provides an excellent delivery system for nutrients to penetrate the mitochondria of the cell, which promotes a cleansing action at the cellular level.*

Astaxanthin promotes optimal actions of Vitamin C and E in the body.* Astaxanthin is more effective than vitamin E with reducing lipid peroxidation, which is the destruction of fatty acids and proteins in cell membranes that can cause oxidative damage.* Results from clinical studies testing the safety of Astaxanthin have suggested no known toxicity.* astaZANTHINTM brand Astaxanthin is a highly concentrated natural extract from H.pluvialis micro algae.

Vitamins B6 and B1 have mild water-loss action that helps in the body´s process of elimination.* B6 is needed for the body to assimilate protein and fat. B6 is helpful with stabilizing urea levels.* Urea is a breakdown waste product of protein metabolism which should be excreted. B6 is necessary for the absorption of B12. B12 helps with the proper assimilation of fats carbohydrates and protein.* Vitamin B12 helps the body to rebuild liver cells.*

When the kidneys excrete body fluids, valuable minerals are lost as well. Magnesium and potassium are especially important minerals to replace. Magnesium and vitamin B6 work together in the body to reduce and dissolve excess calcium.* Potassium is an essential mineral that helps filter out body waste along with regulating the body´s water balance.*
