Alight Health Colorguard
Alight Health’s Color Guard is one of my favorite all-around supports for someone experiencing mycotoxin-induced illness. It’s a bioflavonoid formula designed to support liver and kidney function and detoxification and a healthy inflammatory response.
Exposure to water-damaged buildings can significantly increase oxidative stress and place added demand on the liver and kidneys to help eliminate those toxins. The cells and kidneys need support and antioxidant protection to keep up with that pressure.
This formula delivers a targeted blend of water- and fat-soluble antioxidants to support mycotoxin detoxification, kidney health, and optimal cellular function.
This formula contains ingredients that support multiple mycotoxin detoxification pathways including glucuronidation, acetylation, sulfation, glutathione conjugation, and several CYP enzyme pathways.
That’s why it’s such a great all-around support, no matter which mycotoxins you’re being exposed to.
Mycotoxins that Utilize Kidney Detoxification Include:
Ochratoxin A
Zearalenone
Citrinin
Aflatoxin B-1
Patulin
These Mycotoxins Use Glucuronidation as a Route of Being Detoxified:
Ochratoxin
Sterigmatocystin
T-2 toxin (trichothecene)
Zearalenone
Alternariol
DON (deoxynivalenol)
Trichothecenes also use the route of acetylation.
DON and T-2 Toxin also use the route of sulfation.
Ochratoxin A and DON also use the route of glutathione conjugation.
The Aflatoxins and Sterigmatocystin also use several CYP enzyme pathways to be detoxified.
