THR is a combination of cayenne fruit, magnesium, and vitamin E that helps to maintain good health. Capsaicinoids are responsible for the pungent flavour of cayenne, and the primary and most potent capsaicinoid is capsaicin.¹ Binding of capsaicin to its receptors on sensory neurons leads to the release of neuropeptides which help support blood flow.¹ As a cofactor for over 600 enzymes, magnesium helps regulate the synthesis of amino acids and proteins.² Magnesium helps maintain muscle function by competing with calcium for binding sites on proteins that regulate muscle contractions.² Low levels of magnesium lead to calcium binding these proteins, which may result in muscle cramps.² Magnesium also helps maintain bones and teeth by stimulating the bone forming activity of osteoblasts.² The primary role of vitamin E is to prevent oxidative damage to lipid membranes.³ Among naturally occurring scavengers of reactive oxygen species, the ?-tocopherol form of vitamin E is the most potent.³ THR provides 40 mg of ?-tocopherol per daily dose and helps to prevent vitamin E deficiency.
