Thorne Research L.C.H. Product Information
For proper detoxification of toxins, adequate liver function is essential.* The liver uses a two-phase method of detoxification. In phase I, fat-soluble substances, including toxins, are converted by the cytochrome p450 enzymes into intermediate molecules that, while they are now more water-soluble, are not yet ready to be eliminated. In phase II of liver detoxification, the intermediate substances created during phase I are attached to other substances, such as glutathione, sulfur, and methyl groups, to create sufficiently water-soluble compounds that can be excreted from the liver in the bile.
Thorne Research L.C.H. is a potent combination of herbs that work synergistically to potentially enhance the function of the liver and is specifically helpful during a comprehensive detoxification program.* The herbs in this formula may enhance the production and flow of bile, which helps to optimize metabolism and the excretion of substances detoxified by the liver.* Several of these herbs also provide support for the kidneys.*As with all detoxification regimens, proper intestinal elimination is essential. A person should be having at least one healthy bowel movement daily.* An individual who is constipated should not supplement with L.C.H. because the toxins released into the bile may be reabsorbed.* Vitamin C and MediBulk can be used in conjunction with L.C.H. to assist in bowel cleansing.* The suggested starting amount is one capsule taken in the evening.* If more liver cleansing is indicated, supplementation can be gradually increased.*
