Copper is a trace mineral that is essential for bone health, connective tissue health, cardiovascular health, lipid metabolism, neurological health, and skin health.* It’s also a component of the antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase. Because copper and zinc compete with each other for absorption, an individual taking a high amount of zinc (for example, 50 mg daily for an extended time period) can develop a copper deficiency. A copper deficiency can render many cell types, including fat cells and blood cells, more susceptible to oxidation.* For this reason, zinc supplementation should be accompanied by copper supplementation.* In a clinical setting, copper supplementation protected red blood cells from oxidation.* Thorne’s Copper Bisglycinate provides an optimally absorbed form of copper.*

Flax Seed Oil Caps supplies pure, cold pressed flax seed oil, from certified organically grown flax seeds. Flax seed oil is a natural source of essential fatty acids, especially omega-3 fatty acids (ALA).
Inositol provides a supplemental source of inositol from rice. Among its other actions, inositol is involved in neuronal signaling and osmotic regulation in the brain. Since all the major neurotransmitter systems, dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin, and acetylcholine, use inositol as part of their messaging line, it may be beneficial in supporting neurotransmitter function. It may be considered whenever supplemental inositol is indicated.
Liquid Iodine supplies 75 mcg of iodine (as potassium iodide) per drop. Iodine is an essential trace mineral, and is vital to healthy thyroid function. Approximately 80% of the dietary intake of iodine is sequestered by the thyroid gland. However, other tissues concentrate iodine as well, including salivary glands, the gastric mucosa, choroids plexus, the lactating mammary gland and the ovaries. Decreased iodine status may result in an insufficient production of thyroxine, thus negatively impacting thyroid function. Vegetarians may be at increased risk of iodine deficiency. Liquid Iodine supplies 75mcg of iodine per drop.
Methionine-200™ provides a supplemental source of the sulphur-bearing amino acids Methionine, Lysine and Cysteine. L-Methionine is essential for human health, and in addition to being a sulfur containing amino acid, it also functions as a methyl donor, giving off a methyl group as needed for a variety of chemical and metabolic reactions in the body. In the liver methionine is converted into SAMe (S-adenosyl methionine). Strict vegetarians or persons on a low protein diet may need additional methionine in their diet. Additionally, advanced age is associated with a loss of methionine sulfoxide reductase activities in a number of tissues, thus with advancing age a supplemental source of Methionine may be required. Methionine and cysteine protein residues are particularly sensitive to oxidation by ROS, which is also impacted by age.
