AstraZyme™ is a proprietary all natural plant derived compound extracted from Panax ginseng and Astragalus using a proprietary processing technology. It has been proven in twelve In vitro studies to significantly enhance the absorption of many important nutrients — up to 66% more in certain cases — including key amino acids, such as arginine, citrulline, and tryptophan... vitamins, such as folate... joint-protecting nutrients like glucosamine... and many more. AstraZyme™ works by up-regulating protein transport on a DNA level, meaning it helps increase the amount of amino acids, glucose, vitamins, and other nutrients entering your intestinal cells. Once inside the cells, these nutrients are transported by the liver to your muscles. This is key: those nutrients that do not make it to your intestinal cells will be flushed down the drain.
