OUR SUPPLEMENTS A–Z

Acetyl L-Carnitine is an amino acid that supports cellular energy production by assisting in the transport of fat into the mitochondria where it’s converted into ATP (cellular fuel). It helps athletes and people on higher fat or reduced carbohydrate diets to efficiently burn fats for energy production.

Acetyl L-Carnitine is a highly bioavailable form of the compound (ʟ‑carnitine) that can cross the blood-brain barrier, where it helps to manage oxidative damage, support mitochondrial function and help to maintain normal neurotransmitter activity. Clinical studies suggest Acetyl L-Carnitine helps to maintain optimal neurological health, and helps those with neuropathies that are aggravated by higher carbohydrate intake.

A targeted blend of premium minerals and vitamin C designed to support adrenal function and the sympathetic nervous system when combined with Honed's B-Complex & Mineral Multi and Fat Soluble Multi.

Arginine is an amino acid present in the proteins of all life forms. It is classified as a semi-essential or conditionally essential amino acid. This means that under normal circumstances, the body can synthesize sufficient arginine to meet physiological demands; however there are conditions where the body cannot.

When consumed in balance with cysteine, glycine, lysine and other nutrients arginine is a powerful supplement for those with demanding lifestyles, as it assists in the replenishment of glutathione, the removal of toxic ammonia, the regulation of blood pressure, the stimulation of hormones, the growth of bone and muscle, the regeneration of tissues, and other critical functions.

Honed’s clinical metabolic testing shows that when used in balance with cysteine and glycine, arginine and other nutrients have the ability to synthesize glutathione to help maintain healthy liver tissue and function, cellular detoxification, healthy lung tissue, and enhance health and longevity.

These qualities can make arginine beneficial for active people, the elderly, those with a past history of heavy metals, liver problems, pneumonia and lung problems, heavy alcohol consumption, heavy consumption of acetaminophen, and those exposed to polluted environments.

Beta-Carotene is a premium source of natural carotenoids from non-GMO red palm fruit to support vitamin A-related metabolism. beta‑Carotene is a critical precursor the body employs for conversion to vitamin A (retinol). Vitamin A is necessary for great vision, tissue repair, robust immune system function, healthy skin and mucous membranes, and to clean up disease-causing oxidative stressors.

Biotin (vitamin B7) is a critical water-soluble vitamin and is vital for the energy metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, and promoting strong, healthy hair, skin, and nails. It serves as a building block for enzymes which drive nutrient metabolism and helps maintain cognitive performance and mucous membranes.

Biotin has been shown to improve nail thickness by approximately 25% and reduce brittleness and nail splitting. Some dry skin conditions benefit from biotin supplementation as it increases the production of fatty acids essential for healthy skin. Biotin also encourages the growth of thick, healthy-looking hair and can help reverse the loss of hair.

It has been shown to support healthy blood sugar regulation, and is sometimes recommended alongside standard treatments for diabetes, as it may help reduce the risk of diabetes complications such as nerve damage.

Note: Borage Oil should not be taken during pregnancy. It can induce labor and harm fetal growth or cause abortion.

Note: People with a history of seizures or seizure disorder are generally advised to avoid borage oil and other γ-linolenic acid-rich oils.

Boron is a trace element that influences the metabolism of nutrients involved in the maintenance of strong, healthy bones, testosterone synthesis, and the optimal functioning of the brain. Known as the “calcium helper,” boron plays a vital role in bone health because it assists calcium absorption and utilization in the body.

Preliminary studies also suggest boron may play an important part in supporting prostate and reproductive health, joint health, mineral metabolism, as well as cognitive function.

Burdock root is a powerhouse of antioxidants. Research shows it contains multiple types of powerful antioxidants, including quercetin, luteolin, and phenolic acids that protect cells from free radical damage and help treat and prevent a number of different health conditions.

Burdock root has been used to treat skin conditions like acne, psoriasis, and eczema. Its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties can also help resolve skin issues when it’s applied topically to the skin.

Burdock root has long been used to purify the blood. It has been found to effectively detoxify blood, promote increased circulation, and may inhibit some types of cancer.

A high-potency calcium citrate complemented with vitamin D for maximum absorption. Calcium is essential to all metabolism, muscle contraction, neurofunction, the health of bones and teeth, a calm disposition, and the ability to fall asleep swiftly.

Roughly 75% of people tested have adequate calcium. However, it is often low in children with growing bones, and those with higher salt intakes, high protein diets, or heavy metals present in their cells.

A highly absorbable and bio-available form of iron, without the gastro-intestinal pain or constipation of other iron forms. Carbonyl Iron® powder is metallic iron (Fe) with high iron content (> 98%). It is 69% absorbed, compared to only 10- 15% with most forms of iron. Its high iron content and high absorption rate results in lower dose per capsule, achieving the same or better daily intake levels compared to ferrous (Fe2+) salts.

In addition to the high iron content, Carbonyl Iron® has fine spherical particle size and porosity with huge surface area, which results in higher human bioavailability than other iron forms. We add Vitamin C to further enhance its absorption and utilization.

Iron is an important component of hemoglobin, the protein that carries oxygen from the lungs to all tissues of the body and promotes normal red blood cell production and supports energy utilization. Strenuous daily aerobic or endurance training and/or prolonged menstruation can deplete the body’s iron and ferritin stores. Carbonyl Iron® helps to restore and increase ferritin levels quickly so you can perform at your best.

Involved in a long list of bodily functions for vibrant, glowing health, this essential trace mineral packs a big punch. Copper enhances iron metabolism and oxygen transport, cellular detoxification, cholesterol metabolism, nerve function, hair color and pigment, and immune system and nerve functions.

It should always be consumed in balance with adequate zinc and iron intake from foods (or supplements) unless indicated otherwise by metabolic testing.

Detox Peptide is a combination of arginine (AKG), glycine, and NAC (N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine), to support the critical antioxidant systems which clean up toxins and drive detoxification in the body.

Honed's clinical metabolic research shows how the stress of modern life is causing the accelerated depletion of most nutrients involved in detoxification which support the metabolism and recycling of all-important glutathione.

As glutathione is comprised of the amino acids glycine, cysteine and glutamic acid, Honed’s clinical metabolic testing shows that when in balance they have the ability to help maintain healthy liver tissue, healthy lung tissue and function, the body's natural defenses, and enhanced cellular health and longevity.

Important for full digestion and absorption of nutrients when the body is tired, and stomach acid, pancreatic, and intestinal function are weaker. Without full digestion of foods it is difficult for an ailing body to recover as quickly. This full spectrum enzyme significantly aids in the digestion of all foods.

The elemental potassium in Potassium by HONED™️ is bound to hydrolyzed vegetable protein for maximum intestinal absorption.

Potassium is required for the delivery of nutrients to all cells, alongside sodium, and to support adrenal gland function. The sodium-potassium pump provides the energy necessary for nerve-cell stimulation (reflexes), as well as for the storage of glucose within the muscles and liver. The critical balance between sodium and potassium is often compromised by diuretics such as alcohol or caffeine. The inundation of “hidden” sources of sodium in the average North-American diet often disrupts critical electrolyte levels. Muscle tone, blood pressure, and overall osmotic regulation rely upon adequate levels of intracellular potassium in relation to extracellular sodium.

Potassium is also essential to maintaining proper blood pressure, muscle tone, and balanced metabolism in all cells.

Our essential prenatal multivitamin is the foundation of optimal nutrition to support conception. It contains the activated form of folate, minerals designed for optimal absorption, and vitamin & antioxidant support.

R(+)–alpha-Lipoic acid is the natural form of ALA that plays a pivotal role in the extension of the lifespan of the body’s key antioxidants.

Lipoic acid (LA) plays an important role in glucose metabolism and energy production. It works with B-complex vitamins, magnesium, and Co-Q10 to ensure carbohydrates and proteins are converted to energy. In doing so it helps lower blood sugar levels, prevent lactic acid generation, and enhance mitochondrial function. It also helps athletes generate maximum muscle output without lactic acid production, and is a powerful scavenger of deadly toxins like arsenic and other heavy metals.

Because it is soluble in both water and fat, Lipoic acid is known as the "universal antioxidant." LA produced in the lab occurs in two forms, designated as "R(+)" and "S(-)." Studies show that R-LA, the natural form, is much more biologically active than the S form.

Selenium is a trace mineral and important antioxidant. It's essential for the antioxidant enzyme glutathione and works in synergy with vitamin E.

Studies show that selenium is an important common denominator among the world’s longest-living people. This is largely because selenium is critical to the function and recycling of the body’s antioxidant systems which mop up toxins. Selenium also supports normal thyroid and immune function in healthy individuals.

Selenium is needed for pancreatic function and tissue elasticity. It's essential for reproduction; sperm cells contain high amounts of selenium and considerable amounts are lost during sexual intercourse; for this reason, selenium necessity is higher in men than women.

B1 is used in our B-Complex & Mineral Multi, and at higher supplemental levels for people with high metabolic demands or significant healing requirements.

Activated thiamine is essential to activate critical enzyme systems affecting all bodily functions, and is easily depleted by stress, magnesium deficiency, refined foods, and alcohol consumption.

B1 can activate glucose metabolism and promote healthy blood glucose levels in those already within normal range. It also helps maintain healthy endothelial function and supports the health of the nerves, kidneys, eyes, blood vessels, and heart.

The largest and most complex vitamin, B12 supports detoxification, digestion, red blood cell formation (and prevention of anemia), neurological function, preservation of the myelin sheath around nerves & neurons, neurotransmitter synthesis, and DNA synthesis.

Normal function of the digestive system required for food-bound vitamin B12 absorption is commonly impaired in individuals over 60 years of age, placing them at risk for vitamin B12 deficiency.

The long-term use of certain medications, such as inhibitors of stomach acid secretion, can adversely affect vitamin B12 absorption as well.

Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) ranks among the most critical of the B‑complex group. It works alongside vitamin B3 (niacin) to fuel energy production in the body, as well as detoxification, tissue synthesis, and repair within cells.

It's the catalyst for the metabolism of carbohydrates, healthy fats, and proteins for generation of energy within cells throughout the body. B2 is also essential for tissue formation including skin, hair, and nails. Its synergistic action with other B vitamins, amino acids, and hormones makes the identification of a shortage of B2 and subsequent supplementation a must for ongoing health and wellbeing.

A non-flushing form of Niacin B3 which becomes activated to fuel energy production in the body, as well as all detoxification and tissue synthesis and repair within cells. It also helps promote good cholesterol while decreasing bad cholesterol levels, and supports cardiovascular function.

Niacin delivered in the form of inositol hexanicotinate minimizes the side effects associated with other forms of niacin in high doses, such as flushing of the skin and upset stomach.

Vitamin B5 is essential to the metabolism of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates, and plays a vital role in the production of adrenal hormones and in the formation of antibodies. Without vitamin B5 the body simply can’t make energy. Known as the anti-stress vitamin, as stress dramatically increases consumption of energy and nutrients required for most bodily functions.

Vitamin B5 plays an important role in the secretion of hormones such as cortisone, because of the role it plays in supporting the adrenal gland. These hormones assist the metabolism, help to fight allergies, and are beneficial in the maintenance of healthy skin, muscles, and nerves.

The metabolically active form of vitamin B6 activates some 300 critical enzyme functions that metabolize proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates, enabling protein synthesis, neurotransmitter synthesis, cellular detoxification, and gene expression. It also supports the function and growth of red blood cells, as well as the nervous and immune systems.

Pyridoxal-5′‑phosphate (P‑5‑P) is the biologically active form of vitamin B6 pivotal in over 100 known enzymatic reactions in the body. It participates in cellular energy creation pathways, tissue formation, red blood cell genesis, and nutrient metabolism. P‑5‑P is the preferred form for those with impaired liver function, compromised B6 metabolism, or poor intestinal absorption.

With its role at the crossroads of carbohydrate, protein, and healthy fat metabolism, this vitality vitamin can make the difference in your health that could lead to a cascade of health benefits.

An essential nutrient well known for its vital role in the immune system. A highly effective antioxidant that protects the body from oxidative damage generated during normal metabolism. Also necessary for the production of collagen and therefore important for skin, bone, and joint health. This form includes bioflavonoids, which work synergistically to support vitamin C utilization.

Vitamin D plays a dual role as both a vitamin and a hormone that stimulates the immune system and the body to absorb calcium. Vitamin D, calcium, and phosphorus are needed to keep bones strong. Without vitamin D even a diet adequate in calcium will not help as the body needs vitamin D to absorb calcium.
