You may know that lutein, zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin are valuable supplements for eye health, but lesser known is how they also support brain health and your body’s ability to cope with stress.

In this episode, we highlight the key findings of research with Lutemax 2020, a premium quality source of lutein, zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin from marigold flowers.

Carl describes how by taking these nutrients you can “double dip” on benefits.  You help protect your vision and eye health, while also promoting better memory function, a key protein called BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) and heathier levels of cortisol, which is called the stress hormone.

Tune in to discover more about why these nutrients should be part of your day!

Join Carl and special guest Dr. Christopher Bailey from Gencor as they explore the amazing benefits PEA, a nutrient your body releases as a response to discomfort and stress. PEA levels in the body naturally decline as we get older and the demand for PEA increases.  That’s why your joint supplement should contain Levagen+ to help restore normal levels of PEA.  Levagen+ provides the same PEA that your body uses, and the “plus” is for the enhanced PEA absorption you get for better joint comfort and function.

Tune in to hear Dr. Bailey explain how Levagen+ works and the many benefits research studies have found from supplementing with Levagen+.  Scientists are finding that Levagen+ can offer more than joint and muscle benefits – the latest studies are finding it can help you sleep better, support cognitive function and more!

Melatonin supplements have exploded in popularity in recent years, with up to 30% of Americans using them to help sleep.  Unfortunately, not all of these are happy users, as about 25% of melatonin users report experiencing morning grogginess or daytime drowsiness.

In this episode, Carl explains why he believes this unwanted effect happens, and why you need to be careful about how much synthetic melatonin you take and how often you use these supplements.

Better yet, you’ll hear about a better alternative, which is how to support your body’s own natural production of melatonin at night, while experiencing better sleep, and waking up more energized and without grogginess.

Berberine has been gaining popularity in recent years for its potential to support metabolic health – particularly healthy blood sugar metabolism – and various aspects of healthy aging. However, berberine is poorly absorbed with low bioavailability in the bloodstream, so emerging ingredients are addressing this challenge.

In this follow-up to episode 25’s deep-dive into the novel GlucoVantage berberine, Carl addresses listener comments regarding another ingredient which uses a delivery technology called a phytosome to increase berberine bioavailability in the blood.

Carl unpacks the findings of recent studies with the berberine formulations and their impact on blood levels of berberine. You’ll see how the headline claim made by marketers doesn’t always match the reality of the product being sold – a common problem with popular supplement ingredients.

Tune in to learn what the data really says about GlucoVantage and the berberine phytosome, and how to get the most from a berberine supplement.
