Formulation

Formulation re: Other

Supports the body's Glandular Process

Formulation re: Other

The glandular system regulates voluntary and involuntary action within the body such as growth, metabolism, digestion, elimination, activity and sleep. Endocrine and exocrine glands secrete fluids and hormones either to a duct or directly into the bloodstream where they stimulate some type of action. An imbalance in the glandular system may result in difficult sleep, irritability, fatigue, weight problems, irregular body temperature and emotional distress. The ingredients in this 30 day Glandular System program are formulated to provide balance and nourishment to the body's complex glandular system.

Formula re: Contains

Each packet in this 30 day program contains 1 Master Gland capsule, 2 AdaptaMax capsules and 1 Adrenal Support capsule.

Formulation re: Other

Nature's Sunshine uses natural source materials that are subject to color and texture variation.

Formula re: Contains

Master Gland: Provides a blend of herbs, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients that help balance the glandular system, particularly supporting the pituary, thyroid and adrenal glands. AdaptaMax: Is a combination of adaptagenic herbs that helps the body combat and adapt to stressful situations, and supports energy levels and sexual drive. Adrenal Support: Contains a blend of vitamins, minerals, enzymes and adaptogenic herbs to support and strengthen the adrenal glands, which in turn helps the body to better adapt to stressful situations.
