Swanson Luteolin Complex 100 mg 30 Veg Caps

Description Brain and Nervous System Health 100 mg Per Capsule Dietary Supplement Much of the research on luteolin suggests biological benefits so fundamental to human health and well- being that the effects can be applied to a wide variety of common health concerns at every stage of life. For example, mitochondria (the energy center of every cell) function, or rather the decline thereof, is believed to be a primary cause of aging. This #34;mitochondrial theory of aging #34; is closely tied to the #34;free radical theory #34; in that free radicals are produced within cells by the energy-producing function of the mitochondria. A number of reports suggest that luteolin may defend against mitochondrial aging by activating these cellular antioxidants. The brain, however, is still the most exciting area of luteolin research. According to the studies, luteolin may help reduce levels of amyloid proteins while simultaneously defending the mitochondria from free radicals, making it a unique, multifaceted product for cognitive nourishment and support. There #39;s no arguing the science, but it #39;s also important to note that not all luteolin supplements will perform as the evidence suggests. Luteolin is not bioavailable on its own. It requires the presence of other bioflavonoids in order to be metabolized the body and reach the cells in active form. Luteolin is often accompanied by rutin, which #34;unlocks #34; its potential to promote human health. Swanson Ultra Luteolin Complex delivers pure, natural luteolin and rutin in perfect balance for optimal biological benefit.
