Glycogen is specifically designed to help reduce homocysteine levels, in order to support cardiovascular health.
Product Notes:
Homocysteine is an amino acid we create as a by-product of metabolizing a certain type of protein (methionine) which plays a number of roles in our bodies. Elevated levels of it in the bloodstream is considered a risk factor for developing atherosclerosis or narrowing of blood vessels, and has been associated with a reduced blood flow to the brain, cognitive decline, and depression.
