Hepakom

Liver diseases are a worldwide medical problem because the liver is the principal detoxifying organ and maintains metabolic homeostasis. Hepakom is a food supplement containing Phosphocomplex®, choline and vitamin E. It is designed for normalizing liver function, protects the liver by preventing the entry of toxic substances and helps repair damaged liver cells. Phosphocomplex®- is the bioavailable Silybin, the primary active flavonolignan in silymarin extract from milk thistle seeds. In Phosphocomplex®, the phospholipid complexation of Silybin occurs with phosphatidylcholine, which is an important emulsifier in the gastrointestinal tract and improves the capacity of the Silybin to cross the lipid-rich bio-membranes and reach circulation, resulting in enhanced bioavailability. Through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, the Silybin contained in Phosphocomplex® has the capacity to protect and normalize liver functions, also promoting the production of glutathione. Choline – helps to transport fat away from the liver, thereby maintaining healthy liver functioning. An adequate choline intake helps maintain a healthy liver. Vitamin E – directly removes reactive free radicals and stops reactions of lipid peroxidation,regulates ALT and AST levels and reduces liver fat accumulation, fibrosis and inflammation. Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. Alpha lipoic acid – helps to restore intracellular antioxidants.
