Topical Plus® (proprietary blend)

• Docosanol: Docosanol, also known as behenyl alcohol, is a saturated alcohol that works to support the immune system during times of stress.
• Triacontanol: Triacontanol is found in plant cuticles and beeswax and has been shown to inhibit enzymatic and non-enzymatic lipid peroxidation,(1) which helps maintain a normal inflammatory and immune response.
• Oryza sativa wax extract: The wax extracted from the bran oil of Oryza sativa, or Asian rice, helps to maintain hydration of the skin and support collagen expression to help support normal photoaging of skin cells.(2)
• Matraxol Technology® (glycyl, lysine, leucine): Matraxol Technology® is a supplement consisting of keto acid salts and amino acids that support nitric oxide production, promote amino acid transport, and support heart health through normal circulation.
  

Vitamin A (from beta-carotene)
Vitamin A, provided as beta-carotene in this supplement, is a fat-soluble carotenoid that is found in leafy-green and orange vegetables, some fruit, and some nuts. Beta-carotene provides antioxidant support and healthy skin by promoting normal cell turnover, accumulating in the epidermis.(3)

Vitamin D3 (as cholecalciferol)
Vitamin D3, provided in the form of cholecalciferol, is a fat-soluble vitamin found in fish and eggs. Cholecalciferol works to support normal innate and adaptive immune responses, and vitamin D deficiency has been associated with an increase in susceptibility to everyday stressors.(4)
