Description
Ingredients in Contegra™ support balance within the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal-thyroid (HPA-T) axis.* Contegra also includes ingredients that support inhibitory activity as well as ingredients for excitatory activity to maintain inhibitory and excitatory balance.* Healthy methylation is supported by multiple biologically active ingredients.*
The NeuroSupport Blend™ (NSB) enhances absorption.* Improved absorption allows for smaller doses and fewer capsules.
Contegra is often suggested after inhibitory support (Prolent™, Lentra™, Tranquilent™) has begun and offers a gentle transition to excitatory support. The dose of ingredients supporting excitatory neurotransmitters is higher in Procite-D™ than in Contegra. Contegra may be used in the Initial, Restoration or Maintenance phases on the path to patient wellness.
Ingredients
Ingredients
L-theanine as Suntheanine® (standardized to >99%) Shown to promote relaxation by multiple mechanisms including antagonizing glutamate receptors, increasing the release of GABA, and decreasing norepinephrine levels in the brain.*1,2
N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine Precursor to L-DOPA, the direct precursor to the catecholamines dopamine, norepinephrine and epinephrine.* Acetylated for enhanced bioavailability.
Siberian Ginseng Extract (standardized to 0.8% eleutherosides) Eleutherococcus senticosus, an adaptogen thought to attenuate the effects of stress and fatigue.*3,4
Iodine (as potassium iodide) Essential component of T3 and T4 thyroid hormones.5
Betaine (Trimethylglycine) Methylating agent that supports SAMe production/recycling.*6 SAMe is a co-factor in epinephrine synthesis. Also acts as a source of glycine, an inhibitory amino acid neurotransmitter.*
Folate (as (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid, glucosamine salt) (Quatrefolic®) Cofactor in methylation reactions essential for synthesis of dopamine, norepinephrine and epinephrine.*
Vitamin B6 (as pyridoxal-5’-phosphate): Active form of B6. Cofactor in conversion of L-DOPA to dopamine.*
Vitamin B12 (as Methylcobalamin) Coenzyme form of Vitamin B12.* Methyl donor.*
Pantothenic acid (as pantethine) Biologically active form of Vitamin B5; adrenal support nutrient.*
NeuroSupport Blend™ (NSB) Proprietary mixture composed of Bioperine® and plant-based enzymes clinically proven to maximize nutrient absorption.*
