Product Description: Metagenics HPA Essentials

Metagenics HPA Essentials has been shown to or may:

• High dose vitamin B5 helps healthy neuroendocrine function in combination with vitamin C for adrenal health.
• Assist metabolism and synthesis of some neurotransmitters.
• Core product in the Metagenics Stress Less Program and Energy Program.

Clinical Benefits: Metagenics HPA Essentials 

• Improves the adrenal gland rhythm. A researched trial of 52 people demonstrated a daily combination of vitamins B1 and B6, and 900 mg ascorbic acid, improved glucocorticoid function of the adrenal glands, and simultaneously normalised the rhythmic activity of the gland.
• Vitamins B1 and B12 help protect from HPA dysfunction and regulate the cortisol clock. Vitamin B1 has been shown to reduce cortisol activity in times of stress, thereby protecting the body against excessive cortisol. Although mecobalamin, the active form of vitamin B12, doesn’t increase levels of cortisol in the blood, evidence suggests it helps shift the cortisol secretion peak, helping place the cortisol clock back on schedule.
• B vitamins needed for neurotransmitter synthesis. Vitamin B6 is important due to its function as a coenzyme in the biosynthesis of neurotransmitters GABA, noradrenaline, dopamine and serotonin. Pyridoxal 5-phosphate, (P5P), is the biologically active form of B6. Vitamin B5 is involved in the synthesis of melatonin from serotonin due to its progression to Coenzyme A (CoA), which donates its acetyl group to serotonin to convert to melatonin, which has been shown to have a favourable effect on certain dysphoric mental states such as restlessness, anxiety and depression. Vitamin B5 deficiency is specifically related to decreased adrenal function and biotin deficiency has been shown to contribute to adrenal insufficiency.

Description: Traditional Fluid Extract of Licorice Root, Glycyrrhiza Glabra, in 20% Ethanol and Purified Water.

Traditional Uses: Ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans recognized the benefits of licorice in treating coughs, colds, and chills. In the days of Hippocrates, licorice was prescribed for dropsy because of thirst-quenching properties of licorice drugs (Biondi et al. 2005). The use of licorice for stomach and intestinal ulcers goes back at least to the Greek physician Dioscorides in first century AD, although modern clinical use began in about 1930. The ancient Hindus used licorice for improving sexual vigor, and Chinese for strength and endurance and they prepared it most often in tea (Davis and Morris 1991).

In traditional medicine licorice roots have been used against treating chest and lung diseases, pneumonia, bronchitis, arthritis, bronchial asthma, kidney diseases, heart diseases, gastric ulcer, mouth ulcers, coughs, swellings, excessive salivation, fluid retention, low blood pressure, allergies, catarrhs of the upper respiratory tract, liver toxicity, hyperglycemia, Addison’s disease, pancreatic disorders, flatulence, sexual debility, skin diseases, leukorrhea, hoarseness, and certain viral infections (Blumenthal et al. 2000; Anon 2005; Armanini et al. 2002; Sharma et al. 2013). Current pharmacopoeias from France, Germany, and Britain are in general agreement on the medicinal application of licorice. In Indian medicine, licorice is used for treatment of influenza, eye diseases, uterine complaints, biliousness, liver disease, and arthritis (Saxena 2005). In Chinese medicine, licorice is used to treat acne and pimples, nervous disorders such as hysteria, irritability, and epilepsy as well as reduce the toxic or drastic action of other herbs, and to harmonize herbal formulas (Zhu 1998). In earlier studies Kong et al. (1984) showed that root extract of licorice was used to treat diarrhea in mice, whereas Hong et al. (1988) demonstrated strong diuretic activity of licorice in rats. Extract of G. glabra was used to treat emotional irritability in adults (Tsuda et al. 1986) and stress (Shirinyan et al. 1988). Licorice extract was also used to treat eczema (Sheehan and Atherton 1992), and allergic dermatitis (Sokolov and Zamotayev 1985).

It is estimated that more than 400 compounds have been isolated from Glycyrrhiza species, where triterpene saponins and flavonoids are the main constituents which showed broad biological activity. The triterpenoid saponins (glycyrrhizin, glycyrrhizic acid), which are the major characteristic constituents of liquorice, are responsible for the sweet taste. The main phenols include liquiritin, isoliquiritin, and coumarins including liqcoumarin and glabrocoumarone A and B. Pharmacological studies have confirmed that plant extracts and individual biologically active compounds exhibit a broad range of biological activities such as antimicrobial, antiviral, anti-ulcer, antitumor, antioxidant, antiallergic, neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, and dermatological activities. The Glycyrrhiza plant can also be used in the management of impaired learning, dementia, and Alzheimer’s disease.

Recommended Dose: 1 ml (20 drops) three times a day.

Contraindications: High blood pressure, liver and kidney disease, not recommended during pregnancy

Large doses taken over a long period of time can lead to a number of severe disorders. However, the DGL variety is free of those adverse effects.

For maximal therapeutic results, modern herbalists use blend of herbs with multiple beneficial effects.  Licorice is a common ingredient in herbal blends for adrenal support, for healing of ulcers, for pain and inflammation and more.

Clinical Benefits: Metagenics Adaptan

• Traditionally, rehmannia has been used for nervous tension due to ongoing stress and anxiety. Mechanisms for this may include supporting adrenal cortex activity, promoting HPA function and the release of steroid hormones.5 Adaptan is a non-stimulating formula with traditional herbs that have been used for low stress tolerance to help support the HPA axis and resistance to stressors.6,7,8 It combines herbs used for both restlessness and exhaustion.9,10
• The anxiolytic effects of Panax quinquefolius may be caused by an interaction with GABAA receptors as suggested by animal studies.11 In vitro studies show that ginsenosides may also modulate nerve transmission by decreasing the availability of neurotransmitters. It has been demonstrated that ginseng extracts inhibit the uptake of GABAA, glutamate, dopamine, noradrenalin, and serotonin in the brain.

Dandelion 1:2 Root Extract, Taraxacum officinale, in Ethanol and Purified Water

Traditional Use: Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale; T. mongolicum), perhaps the best-known "weed" in the world, was human food and medicine before the development of writing. First mentioned in writing in the Tang Materia Medica (659 B.C.E.), it is used both internally and externally in Chinese medicine for abscesses, eye inflammations, and as a diuretic. The English common name, from French dent-de-lion, and its names in many Indo-European languages refer to its serrated leaf margins ("lion's teeth"); however, the preferred common name in France is pissenlit ("piss in bed"), undoubtedly on account of its reputation as a diuretic. Its Latin name, derived from the Greek, means "disease remedy." European traditional medicine uses dandelion roots for liver function; its leaves and flowers as bitter digestive stimulants and diuretics. The 17th century British botanist, herbalist, and physician Nicholas Culpeper, in his Complete Herbal, wrote that dandelion leaf and root have an “opening and cleansing quality” and are effective for the promotion of urination; treatment of obstructions and diseases of the liver, gallbladder, and spleen; promotion of rest and sleep in fevered persons; cleansing and healing of abscesses and ulcers of the urinary passage; and assisting in generally poor health with emaciation.
