Molybdenum (as molybdenum glycinate chelate) supports normal sulfite metabolism, detoxification, dental health, and iron utilization.
Molybdenum is an essential trace element needed for sulfur and sulfite metabolism.
The sulfite oxidase (SUOX) enzyme breaks down sulfites into less problematic sulfates. Molybdenum is required as a cofactor for this biochemical reaction.
Some people experience side effects from consuming high sulfite foods such as bottled lime and lemon juice, dried fruits, and wine. Others with slow SUOX enzyme activity or molybdenum deficiency can also experience symptoms from high sulfur and sulfite foods. High sulfite levels in the body can cause headaches, sinus problems, skin issues, unwanted body odor, flushing, and other adverse effects.
In addition to the SUOX enzyme, molybdenum is a cofactor for other critical detoxification enzymes, including aldehyde oxidase (AO) and xanthine oxidase (XO). These enzymes help to break down certain drugs and potentially harmful compounds in the body. Certain aldehydes, drugs, and alcohol must be broken down via these enzymes, which require molybdenum to function.
SulfiteX Drops provide a gentle 25 mcg serving size of molybdenum per single drop in a well-absorbed liquid. Molybdenum in the glycinate chelate form offers excellent bioavailability.
Molybdenum supports healthy:
- Sulfite breakdown via the SUOX enzyme
- Detoxification
- Dental health
- Cellular health and normal cell proliferation
- Waste removal by the kidneys
- Iron utilization and metabolism
- Toxin breakdown in the liver
- Estradiol and progesterone metabolism
