As we age, and continue to eat cooked and processed food, we put more demand on the pancreas to keep manufacturing digestive enzymes. This ultimately puts stress on the pancreas, since it is only able to build these enzymes, from those raw food enzymes we ingest. Another important body system that becomes stressed in the absence of digestive enzymes, is that of our already burdened immune system. Immune function relies on proper and complete digestion of food, but in the absence of abundant digestive enzymes, immune enzymes are drawn from their normal posts, and transported to the digestive tract by white blood cells, to insure adequate digestion. This pattern leaves our immune systems unguarded because it is attempting to first take care of digestion!
Scientific Studies suggest that probiotics may help to reduce toxic causing compounds produced in the intestinal tract |
AZ 2-12 is able to help the body cope by supplying a balance of beneficial microbes that produce vitamin K2 which specifically keeps calcium out of the walls of blood vessels and in the bones. Because so many of us have been exposed to antibiotics, we lack an adequate supply of probiotics (essential microbes). Hardening of blood vessels coincides with softening of bones. Vitamin K influences metabolism of calcium into bone. Vitamin K regulates calcium. Bones must have it, arteries can't stand it. Vitamin K addresses both.
Chlorella, the master cell regenerator has many systemic benefits that include immune enhancement, healing of gastrointestinal ulcers, protection of the liver from environmental pollutants, digestive regulation, stimulation of healing damaged tissues, protection against radiation, cleansing and building blood cells and elimination of body odors. Researchers at Kanazawa Medical University in Japan and Taipei University in China performed experiments showing increased macrophage activity. Macrophages are immune cells that consume or digest tumor cells, pathogenic bacteria and other substances that should not be in the body. Chlorella is also effective in breaking down cholesterol deposits, improving brain function and memory due to chlorella's capacity to carry more oxygen to brain cells.

Fulvic Base® Fulvic Base is a complex of 73 super bioavailable plant minerals, the primary food for the probiotics in AZ 2-12 as well as the body's nervous system. Fulvic Base minerals are easily absorbed by all body cells and contribute to our electric potential and acid-alkaline balance. Minerals are responsible for every cellular and enzymatic function throughout the body, and brain including activation of vitamins. |
Inulin Inulin is a functional ingredient occurring naturally in vegetables such as onion, garlic and asparagus. Inulin contains FOS (fructo-oligosaccharides) the energy reserve in these plants. Inulin's unique health benefits include promotion of intestinal flora, acceleration of stool transit time and assisting in normalizing blood glucose levels.
Yucca Yucca in AZ 2-12 serves to increase the surface area of nutrients for the enzymes to act upon, accelerating their multitude of biological actions and reactions. Saponins in Yucca contain plant steroids similar to cortisone, the stress and anti-inflammatory hormone. Yucca benefits intestinal flora populations and aids in the management of gas and constipation.
Silica Silica is one of the most important tissue salts within our body. Stress management, skin health, elasticity of blood vessels, healthy bones, cartilage, joints, nails, teeth, gums, and digestion of food are some of the benefits provided by silica. A SPECIAL ENVIRONMENT FOR HEALTHY CELLS Healthy cells must have an alkaline pH, for growth, repair, nutrient up-take and free radical management. Intra-cellular enzymes operate in very narrow pH margins and can only function when the fluid is as close to neutral as possible, AZ 2-12 is formulated with this aspect in mind, assisting the body in maintaining a healthy pH balance. |
