We can’t talk about detoxification without talking about the gut. Inside of our gut is the final process of detoxification of our hormones and any other waste products. Sometimes… and quite frankly, I see that oftentimes women suffer from imbalances in gut bacteria which can muck up our detoxification by producing an enzyme called beta-glucuronidase.
Let’s just say, some of the bugs can unpackage your bagged-up trash and send it back into circulation. We do not want this happening, as your liver works so hard to get these out!
High levels of beta-glucuronidase can translate into high levels of estrogen recirculating in the body leading to symptoms of estrogen dominance (and general toxin overload) making you feel sluggish, moody, and headachy, and have been associated with increased risk of breast prostate, and colon cancer. Calcium-D-Glucarate is a helpful stopgap when working to correct this underlying gut imbalance.
Naturally found in certain fruits and vegetables, calcium-d-glucarate is a biochemical compound that supports healthy glucuronidation, a natural process in which normal cells eliminate microscopic waste and the by-products of detoxification.* In this way it is especially helpful in promoting cellular health in the liver, prostate, and breast tissues. Taken as a supplement, calcium-d-glucarate encourages the elimination of typical environmental toxins and normal hormone metabolites through its support of healthy detoxification mechanisms.
