Glycine is a pleasant tasting amino acid with remarkable health benefits. It supports wound healing, possibly because it is a precursor of collagen protein, but also because it promotes growth hormone, which is essential for healing. Glycine also enhances glucagon, a natural antidote against low blood sugar. This can be a practical advantage when you miss a meal or commit to a weight loss diet. Glycine combines with Arginine to form Creatine, thus increasing muscle energy an action that may explain the healthy drop in blood fats (triglycerides) often seen after Glycine. Uric acid excretion is increased by Glycine, which is an advantage for those who suffer gouty pain after feasting on meats, alcohol, and coffee. Glycine inactivates chemicals, including salicylates and phenols associated with food intolerance. In the brain it has a calming effect, useful as an antidote against anxiety and irritability, including muscle spasm. Put it all together and Glycine is a normalizer, combining muscle energy and endurance with relaxation and calm mood, the essence of the Ola Loa feeling.TMG is Tri-Methyl Glycine, also called Betaine, is not widely known to the public but, as its name suggests, it is a source of methyl groups, molecular fragments made up of a carbon and three hydrogen atoms. This provides a back-up for the essential amino acid, Methionine, which transfer methyl groups in reactions that are key for cell membrane repair, nerve transmission, and muscle energy, and with major effects on attention, mood, and sleep. But in order to remain in an activated state, methionine must combine with adenosine to form adenosyl-methionine. This requirement limits methyl transfer reactions to the requirements of the cells, preventing chaos.. One common problem is deficiency of methyl groups to keep methionine in its activated state, SAM.
When Methionine transfers its methyl group, it becomes Homocysteine, a highly reactive substance that can interfere with body chemistry and cause damage to tissues, including the lining of blood vessels, thus increasing risk of blood clots. A mere doubling of blood Homocysteine over the population average has been found to cause a four-fold increase in risk of heart attack.
Nature has arranged to recycle Homocysteine back into Methionine by providing replacement methyl groups, a mechanism that requires two vitamins, B12 and Folic Acid; however these vitamins are often deficient. Luckily, TMG can do the job without requiring any vitamin co-factor. It is just a matter of getting enough TMG. Over 1000 mg (up to 6000 mg in some cases) will lower Homocysteine levels, even after treatment with Folic Acid and B12 are at impasse.
TMG is particularly important to protect the liver from large quantities of Methionine that arrive after eating high protein meals, especially meat, fish, fowl, eggs and cheese. Unlike B12 and Folic Acid, which are vulnerable to intestinal malabsorption, TMG is reliably absorbed. Thus TMG is a strategic nutrient, providing a back-up source of methyl groups to assure recycling of Methionine into SAM and preventing pile-up of Homocysteine, which causes inflammation and damage.
Thus TMG promotes SAM, which is important for such functions as:
1. Production of Carnitine, without which fats cannot be used for energy. 2. Production of Creatine, which is required for sustained muscle energy. 3. Production of Polyamines for cell regeneration and tissue healing. 4. Methylation of Histamine to down-regulate stomach acid. 5. Synthesis and repair of Myelin Sheaths in the brain and nerves. 6. Production of Neurotransmitters, Acetylcholine and Epinephrine, which control arousal, mood, emotions, and learning. 7. Synthesis of the sleep hormone, Melatonin.
NAC, Acetyl Cysteine, replenishes the most important cellular antioxidant, Glutathione, which is protective throughout the various tissues of the body, especially the high stress areas, such as lung, liver, intestine and muscles.. NAC has proved invaluable in major lung conditions, such as asthma and bronchitis, where it has been a best-kept nutrition secret of hospital medicine for many years. It has also proved to be amazingly protective against liver injury from chemical solvents and excess alcohol. Glutathione is required mostly for protection against the free radical damage of everyday living, the little insults to our cell membranes that gradually add up to the wear and tear that can age us beyond our years. That is why it is important to maintain a regular intake of NAC in order to assure a reliable source of the Glutathione that we need every moment of our lives.
Coenzyme Q 10 is also an antioxidant, but its greater function is in assuring the orderly passage of electrons that generate the energy of life inside every cell in the body, the life force itself! These electrons come from hydrogen atoms found in food fats and carbohydrates, and made available by reactions with vitamins, minerals and enzymes within our cells. The electrons are contained within the carbon hydrogen skeletons of fats and carbohydrates until they reach the power plants of the cell, the mitochondria. Here the negatively charged electrons pass through four enzyme complexes within the mitochondria, thereby generating an electronegative current, the life energy.
At the same time the hydrogen residue, having lost a negative charged electron, is now called a proton, signifying its positive charge. Protons exit the mitochondria by leaking into the cytoplasm of the cells where they serve as antioxidants by actively neutralizing free radicals and preventing damage (aging) to the delicate fats and proteins in the membranes of the mitochondria and organelles. Because the body?s ability to make Coenzyme Q 10 is less than sufficient for optimal health, and because blood levels of Coenzyme Q 10 decline with age, it makes good sense to find a reliable source.
Therefore we have included a significant amount of Coenzyme Q 10 in Ola Loa, so as to support your cell energy and protect you against free radical damage. And we think that regular intake of extra Ola Loa is a sensible strategy against premature aging. And with the Ola Loa feeling you can feel younger too!
Vitamin C, ascorbic acid, is transformed by the effervescent interaction between mineral carbonates and citrates in Ola Loa once you add water. The ascorbic acid form of Vitamin C becomes non-acidic as it complexes with the minerals of Ola Loa. This assures speedy mineral absorption without mouth or stomach irritation. Vitamin C is rendered smooth and soothing as it performs its miracles as an antioxidant, an antiviral agent, an immune booster, a factor in synthesis of hormones, e.g. Estrogen, Testosterone, Cortisone, and Adrenalin, and all the while providing extra protection against blood vessel inflammation and damage. Research studies confirm that a 1000 mg dose of Vitamin C protects blood flow even after excessive dietary protein and homocysteine, which otherwise cause spasm and reduced blood flow. Blood circulation is a key to well-being and long life, but Vitamin C is also the key to production of collagen, the connective tissue protein that heals our wounds, including blood vessels, and stabilizes our tissue structure, keeping our form and visage recognizable for a lifetime.
Ola Loa is recommended for everyday good health; as a general anti-aging vitamin, for energy and vitality, and for antioxidant protection. Ola Loa is a comfort to those concerned about arteriosclerosis, osteoporosis, digestive problems, and infection. It can make the difference between going ahead with activities or giving up in the face of fatigue, strain, or malaise. And if you are travelling or going out of doors in the summer sun, it can also provide protection against ultra-violet exposure, so take your Ola Loa with you wherever you go. The more you learn about nutrition and self-health care, the more you will appreciate Ola Loa.

BodyBoost Colostrum Support for the Immune System
Quality You Can Trust
Colostrum is nature's first food and is known for its remarkable life-enhancing properties. This exceptional nutritional substance is produced by mammal mothers for their newborn and supports the immune system. It provides a perfect combination of immune and growth factors including immunoglobulins, lactoferrin and insulin-like Growth Factor - 1 (IGF-1), amino acids and other important nutrients.
Scientific studies have clearly shown that colostrum and nutrients derived from colostrum:
· Support the immune system.
· Stimulate the normal growth, regeneration and repair of muscle, skin, collagen, bone cartilage and nerve tissue.
· Improve vitality and athletic performance.
· Enhance the digestive system.
· Build lean body mass.
To Maximize Purity and Potency
BodyBoost Colostrum uses a state-of-the-art manufacturing process:
· Manufactured according to GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices).
· Sourced from USDA and FDA certified dairies.
· Collected within 12 hours of production.
· Free of synthetic hormones, pesticides and antibiotics.
· Processed using minimal heat to ensure the bioavailability of its nutritional factors.
· Unadulterated to maintain its natural wholeness and nutrition.
· Standardized to provide 25% immunoglobulins. To preserve BodyBoost's natural wholesomeness, we do not filter or de-fat this perfect food, as some companies do which may decrease it of its most vital and clinically significant qualities.
BodyBoost Colostrum is "Produced in America"
Our colostrum is produced from healthy, nutritionally supplemented dairy cows raised in the United States on USDA and FDA certified dairy farms. These dairy cows are carefully fed a scientifically designed diet that contains the proper balance of legumes and grasses along with trace and other minerals to ensure consistently high potency colostrum. We believe this practice is far superior to pasture feeding that may allow the dairy cow's nutrition to chance.
BodyBoost Colostrum is high in immunoglobulin content. Much of the colostrum being sold today is processed from dairy cows raised in sub-tropical climates. Our colostrum is from dairy cows raised in north central United States where the winters are long and harsh. Calves that are born in the winter months must survive bitter sub-zero temperatures, the cold northwest winds and the damp, moist conditions in the barn in their first days of life. The colostrum produced by their vigorous mothers must be the richest in immunoglobulins and other important immune and growth factors in order for their newborn to survive.
Natural Components in Colostrum
Occasionally, many individuals experience general immune deficiency. Stress, nutritional deficiencies, exposure to pathogens, age, and unhealthy lifestyles all contribute to poor immune function. A deficient immune system is unable to effectively battle intruders it would otherwise fight off. Excessive use of antibiotics is responsible for creating new and unusual challenges against the immune system.
Colostrum contains high levels of antibodies against a wide range of bacterial viral and protozoan pathogens as well as against various bacterial toxins. The antibodies are protected by a component that shields it from gastric acid and digestive enzymes. Colostrum antibodies are not believed to be absorbed and digested but to remain in the intestinal tract after being swallowed where they fight off intruders.
Antibodies present in Colostrum
Immunoglobulins
IgG - Enhances phagocytosis to neutralize toxins (80-85% of total antibody serum).
IgA - Protects mucosal surfaces (about 15%).
IgM - Enhances phagocytosis, especially against microorganisms (5-10%).
IgD - Stimulates B-cells to produce antibodies (.2%).
IgE - Associated with allergic reactions (.002%).
Colostrum contains antibodies and other components that act against E-Coli 0157:H7 and 0111:NM, Salmonella, Rotavirus, Coronavirus, and is effective against most other bacteria and viruses.
Lactoferrin is an iron binding protein: makes iron unavailable for needed bacteria reproduction; interferes in the growth of potentially harmful bacteria in the intestine; diminishes the damaging effects of free radicals; exerts its effect at the level of virus absorption or penetration (or both). Contains properties that fight inflammation.
Proline-Rich Polypeptides (PRP) is a special regulatory protein: calms an overactive immune system; stimulates an under active immune system.
Interferon inhibits viral activity. A glycoprotein produced by cells that act to prevent the replication of a wide range of viruses by inducing resistance.
Interleukin -2, a cytokine, stimulates the growth of cells that constitutes the immune system.
Lysozyme, a protein, that is not digested, but persists in the gastrointestinal tract where it breaks down the cell walls of certain unwanted bacteria, preventing their ability to multiply.
Oligosaccharide,a carbohydrate component, allows proliferation of healthy intestinal bacteria and interferes with the adherence of undesirable microorganisms. Oligosaccharides found in colostrum have been shown to block attachment of a wide variety of bacteria especially S. pheumonococci, to mucous membranes, therefore, aiding in the prevention of respiratory inflammations.
Transforming Growth Factor (TGF) is responsible for normal cell growth and repair. TGF are polypeptides that promote cell proliferation, tissue repair and maintenance (i.e. wound healing). Dr. F. J. Ballard found that bovine colostrum contains up to 100 times the mitogenic potency of human colostrum.
Insulin-like Growth Factor I and II (IGF-1 and IGF - II), pro-insulin hormones, have anabolic effects. Bovine and human growth factors have demonstrated ability to stimulate protein synthesis and inhibit protein degradation. IGF - 1(highest concentrations available in nature are in bovine colostrum) is a peptide, an amino acid chain, and resembles the hormone insulin. Researchers theorize that IGF - 1 in colostrum could encourage muscle cells to repair themselves more quickly after stress from intense exercise. IGF-1 and other factors "seal" the gut from ulceration.
Summary Facts about Colostrum.
· Promotes homeostatic balance in the body, while antibiotics and steroids disrupt it. Colostrum can be used as a safe, effective alternative to steroids to block inflammation.
· Has immune factors that are transferable from one species to another; colostrum from dairy cows has much higher immune factors than human colostrum. Many immune-compromised adults can benefit from the nutritional support from colostrum supplementation.
· Increases healthy intestinal microflora population, better utilizes the nutrients in the foods we eat, and provides an unfavorable environment for enteric pathogens. Colostrum also supports a more stable, stronger defense against infection by micro-organisms, albeit, bacteria, viruses, or parasites, which especially seek a weakened host.
· Is a way to help maintain the immune system and help strengthen the gut especially for adults whose immune system might be weakened.
