MST® LIVER ALPHACORE: 17 active components for liver detoxification and cell regeneration
M ST® LIVER ALPHACORE 60 Capsules is a powerful formula based on 17 active ingredients [1], designed for the effective cleansing, protection, and regeneration of the liver [1, 2]. The complex contains high-dose silymarin (from milk thistle), N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) [2], L-glutathione , alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) [3], and adaptogen extracts. The formula supports the key processes of detoxification and cell regeneration [2]. Made in Germany . You can purchase MST Liver AlphaCore for comprehensive support of liver function and overall metabolism in the EU .
A deeper look at the synergy of the 17 components
The Liver AlphaCore formula combines direct hepatoprotectors, antioxidant cofactors and B vitamins to support all phases of liver function.
-
Silymarin (from milk thistle): Is considered the best-known natural liver protectant [1]. Silymarin has the ability to strengthen the outer membrane of liver cells (hepatocytes) [1] and stimulate protein synthesis, which promotes the regeneration of damaged liver tissue [1].
-
NAC and L-glutathione: This is a direct antioxidant (glutathione) and its key precursor (NAC) [2]. Glutathione is the “master antioxidant” necessary for phase II of liver detoxification [2], as it binds and neutralizes toxins before they can leave the body [2].
-
Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA): A universal antioxidant [3], soluble in water and fat. ALA regenerates other antioxidants (such as vitamin C and glutathione) [3] and enhances the energy metabolism of liver cells.
-
Curcumin (from turmeric) and artichoke: Curcuminoids have a potent anti-inflammatory effect [4], important for reducing chronic liver inflammation [4]. Artichoke extract (cynarin) promotes bile production (choleretic function) [5], which is essential for the excretion of toxins and fats.
The advantage of complex restoration and detoxification
Unlike single-ingredient preparations, Liver AlphaCore offers a multi-stage effect:
-
Cell protection (silymarin, curcumin): Prevents cell damage [1] and reduces inflammation [4].
-
Detoxification (NAC, glutathione, L-methionine): Provides the liver with the substrates necessary for the effective elimination of toxins and metabolic waste products (phase I and II) [2]. L-methionine is important for the synthesis of SAM-e [6], a key molecule for liver regeneration.
-
Metabolic support (B vitamins, ALA): Vitamins B6, B9 (folic acid), B12, thiamin and riboflavin are critical cofactors [6] for over 100 enzymatic reactions in the liver, including energy and fat metabolism [6].
-
Bioavailability (AstraGin): The complex contains AstraGin (extracts of ginseng and astragalus), which significantly improves the absorption of amino acids and vitamins [source: see package photo].
The role of adaptogens and vital substances
Extracts of Schisandra (Limonene) and Gingerol (Ginger) strengthen the body's adaptation mechanisms [7] and support recovery from stressors. Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) contributes to maintaining overall antioxidant status. MST® LIVER ALPHACORE is therefore a universal formula for comprehensive support of metabolic liver function.

📚 Studies on the effects of key components
Scientific data to support the effect of Liver AlphaCore
-
Milk thistle (silymarin): protection and regeneration
-
Mechanism: Silymarin stabilizes the cell membranes of hepatocytes [1] and stimulates the activity of RNA polymerase, leading to increased protein synthesis and cell regeneration [1].
-
Antitoxic effect: Silymarin is thought to block the entry of toxins (e.g. alcohol and certain drugs) into liver cells [1].
-
-
Detox support (NAC, glutathione):
-
Detox Phase II: NAC is rapidly converted to cysteine , which is the limiting factor in glutathione synthesis [2]. High glutathione levels are crucial for the binding and neutralization of metabolites and heavy metals in the second detoxification phase [2].
-
Alpha-lipoic acid: In addition to its direct antioxidant effect, ALA enhances the activity of glutathione as well as vitamins C and E [3], thus forming a strong antioxidant network.
-
-
Anti-inflammatory and choleretic effects (turmeric, artichoke):
-
Curcumin: The active ingredient of turmeric inhibits NF-kB (nuclear factor kappa B), a key regulator of inflammation [4], and thus helps to protect liver tissue from inflammatory damage.
-
Artichoke (cynarin): Cynarin stimulates choleretic function (bile production) [5], which promotes the excretion of cholesterol and toxins.
-
-
Metabolic support (methionine, vitamins):
-
L-Methionine: As an essential amino acid, it is involved in transmethylation processes that are fundamental for detoxification and the synthesis of SAM-e (S-adenosylmethionine) – an important molecule for liver regeneration [6].
-
B vitamins: Necessary for homocysteine conversion, support of energy metabolism and efficiency of metabolic pathways occurring in the liver [6].
