The Insulite Metabolic Syndrome (Syndrome X) System Nutraceuticals
ELEMENT I - Meta/InsulX
A carefully formulated combination of pure nutrients which naturally change the interaction of individual cell membranes with insulin. Meta-InsulX is primarily designed to increase the number of insulin receptors on the surface of the cell. As a result, cells can accept glucose more efficiently which reduces circulating blood glucose. A decrease in blood glucose reduces the secretion of insulin — a major cause of Metabolic Syndrome. When insulin and glucose are balanced, the symptoms of Metabolic Syndrome can begin to reverse.
INGREDIENTS
Vanadium (Sulfate) - Restores blood glucose, lowers cholesterol, increases insulin sensitivity, improves glucose tolerance and metabolism, decreases body fat and reduces appetite naturally.
Chromium (GTF Niacinate) - Supports insulin binding to cells and decreases cholesterol and insulin levels. Boosts insulin response to glucose.
Alpha Lipoic Acid - Increases insulin sensitivity and lowers glucose levels. Provides antioxidant activity, scavenges free radicals, supports glucose transport and extends the functional capacity of Vitamin C, Vitamin E and Co Q 10.
Magnesium (Amino Acid Chelate) - Positively affects insulin secretion/action and improves cholesterol profile. (Lower than normal levels of Magnesium Glycinate are associated with Insulin Resistance, glucose intolerance and hyperinsulinemia.)
Zinc (Picolinate) - Lowers insulin concentration and improves insulin sensitivity.
L-Carnitine (Tartrate) - Improves insulin sensitivity.
Copper (Citrate) - Balances zinc and supports its ability to lower insulin concentration.
Calcium (Citrate/Malate) - Reduces fasting insulin levels, increases insulin sensitivity and regulates fat tissue.
Biotin USP - Involved in the manufacture and release of insulin; a cofactor required for the synthesis and oxidation of fatty acids.
Manganese (Citrate) - Reverses glucose intolerance, a deficiency associated with Diabetes.
Pancreatic Tissue - Contains specific amino acids in the correct proportions to supply growth, balance and repair factors of the pancreas.
Adrenal Tissue - Contains specific amino acids to supply growth, balance and repair factors of the adrenals.
Protease and Amylase - Improve absorption and digestion of proteins and nutrient absorption.
SUPPLEMENT FACTS
Bottle contains: 120 caps
Serving size: 4 caps per day
Dosing recommendation: 2 caps twice per day with meals
Use with the PCOS+, PCOS/RejuvenX, and PCOS/GlucX formulas
ELEMENT II - Meta-RejuvenX
This high potency blend of herbs and antioxidants focuses on improving the vessels of the cardiovascular system as well as cellular vitality. An additional benefit is the reversal of damage to the cardiovascular system caused by Metabolic Syndrome and Insulin Resistance. Over time, the interior lining of blood vessels are damaged when insulin levels are elevated and this damage contributes to the formation of cardiovascular disease. Meta-RejuvenX contains high quality anti-oxidants designed to repair cardiovascular vessel integrity, minimize free-radical damage, prevent lifestyle-related diseases and reverse symptoms associated with elevated insulin.
INGREDIENTS:
Vitamin C (Calcium Ester C ©) - Balances Vitamin C deficiency that induces disordered glucose regulation, improves glucose tolerance and scavenges free radicals. Reduces damage to arteries and arterioles and reduces glycosylation.
CoQ10 (Idebenone) - Lowers glucose and insulin levels and plays a major role in carbohydrate metabolism. Aids peripheral glucose utilization while lowering fasting blood sugar; a powerful antioxidant.
Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin) - Reduces neuropathy associated with Diabetes, sorbitol accumulation, muscle weakness and tingling.
Folic Acid (Calcium Folinate) - Ensures sufficient folate status to aid in the prevention of many chronic diseases (e.g. atherosclerosis, anemia, heart disease) and reverses homocysteine levels.
Quercitin - Contains antioxidant, anti-carcinogenic and anti-inflammatory properties to inhibit free radical production. Reduces intracellular accumulation of sorbitol that is implicated in the pathogenesis of cataracts, retinopathies, neuropathies and other disorders.
Bilberry Extract - Improves microcirculation and protects the vessels of the eyes in particular with potent antioxidants.
Grape Seed Extract - Reduces free radicals and possesses vital anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effects. (Its antioxidant properties are 20 to 50 times stronger than Vitamins C and E.) Lowers cholesterol levels and prevents damage to the artery from elevated glucose and insulin levels.
Supplement Facts:
Bottle contains: 120 caps
Serving size: 4 caps per day
Dosing recommendation: 2 caps twice per day with meals
Use with the Pre-DiabetX, Pre-GlucX and Pre-OmegaX formulas
ELEMENT III -Meta/GlucX
Meta-GlucX is a combination of natural fibers designed to help regulate the absorption of glucose into the blood stream while reducing cholesterol and triglycerides, to lower blood pressure and decrease insulin levels. Because high insulin levels promote Metabolic Syndrome, this product is essential to reducing insulin spiking thereby initiating the reversal of Metabolic Syndrome. Additionally, research demonstrates the benefits of high fiber intake as relates to weight loss and cardio-protective effects.
INGREDIENTS:
Guar Gum - Decreases cholesterol, triglycerides and systolic blood pressure. Increases insulin sensitivity and regulates appetite.
Apple Pectin, Beet Powder & Oat Fiber - Slow the absorption of glucose into the blood stream which reduces insulin response.
Fenugreek - Reduces blood sugar and insulin following a meal, lowers cholesterol levels ( LDL , TG and total Cholesterol), increases HDL and improves insulin response and glucose tolerance.
Milk Thistle - Diminishes fasting blood glucose, mean daily glucose and fasting insulin levels.
Supplement Facts:
Bottle contains: 360 caps
Serving size: 12 caps per day
Dosing recommendation: 6 caps twice per day between meals with 8 oz. of water.
This supplement can also be taken with meals.
Use with the PreDiabetX, Pre-OmegaX and Pre-RejuvenX formulas.
ELEMENT IV - Meta/OmegaX
This formula is designed to reverse Metabolic Syndrome (Syndrome X) and the damage Insulin Resistance causes to cardiovascular health by providing the Omega 3 fatty acids EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). The effect of EPA and DHA on cardiovascular health is well documented in the research literature.
Also known as EFAs (Essential Fatty Acids), Omega 3 fatty acids are found in oils made from flax seed, hemp, walnut, pumpkin, soy, algae and cold water fish. Cold water fish contain the EPA and DHA directly without requiring the body to convert Omega 3 fatty acids to this more active form.
Omega 3 fatty acids specifically impact
Metabolic Syndrome in the following ways:
Decrease triglyceride levels
Lower LDL levels (”bad” cholesterol) and raise HDL levels (”good” cholesterol)
Improve the risk profile for cardiovascular disease ( CVD )
Prevent high cholesterol
Reduce hypertension
Decrease plasma fibrinogen
Inhibit platelet aggregation
Positively affect cell membrane permeability
Provide anti-inflammatory action in the blood vessels
Omega 3 fatty acids impact Insulin Resistance by:
Increasing the prevention of Insulin Resistant states
Enhancing peripheral insulin sensitivity
Lowering blood glucose levels
Decreasing insulin response to oral glucose
Improving long term glucose control
Reducing plasma insulin concentrations
Additional benefits of Omega 3 fatty acids include:
Improved learning and memory
Enhanced cognitive development
Improvements in depression and schizophrenia
Reduced post partum depression
Anti-inflammatory actions improve arthritis, asthma, psoriasis, eczema, inflammatory bowel disease and systemic lupus erythematosus
INGREDIENT:
Omega 3 EPA and DHA
Supplement Facts:
Bottle contains: 120 caps

Dosing recommendation: 2 caps twice per day with meals
If taken as recommended:
Total EPA: 1440 mg per day
Total DHA: 960 mg per day
