Metabolism
Metabolic Guard
Meet the metabolism-supporting formula designed to help those with hormone and energy concerns feel revitalized and achieve optimal metabolic health. Taken twice daily, this liquid blend features two key herbs specifically studied to assist healthy insulin signaling and hormone optimization. Cinnamon helps to aid carbohydrate metabolism while supporting normal testosterone levels. Ginger supports hormone balance (FSH, LH) and cellular health in order to maintain normal, healthy ovulation. As a bonus, L-Carnitine super-charges this formula to activate your metabolic spark by helping to convert fatty acids to energy within the mitochondria. Because metabolic health is a foundational pillar of reproductive balance, this all-in-one formula aids hormones from the ground up.*

INSIDE THE FORMULA
Cinnamon and Ginger were studied in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in the context of womenβs hormone and metabolic health. Both herbs were shown to have individual supportive effects on key female hormones (FSH, LH, insulin, testosterone) involved in achieving optimal reproductive and metabolic balance. L-Carnitine, on the other hand, is an amino acid that helps to protect and activate mitochondrial health in order to assist with a healthy inflammatory response, metabolic activation and energy levels.*

ALL ABOUT
The Formula
-
Metabolic health = happy hormones
While these common kitchen herbs may seem unsuspeβ¦
While these common kitchen herbs may seem unsuspecting, when concentrated in the right therapeutic doses, theyβre able to help our hormones and metabolic health on a core level by aiding insulin signaling and encouraging a healthy inflammatory response in the face of oxidative stress.
Cinnamon has been shown to support normal carbohydrate metabolism, so that the food we eat is properly converted to fuel we can use for healthy energy levels, exercise, healthy mood and more. When carbohydrate metabolism is less than optimal, testosterone levels may be affected, which may play a role in irregular cycles.
Cinnamon has further been found to support optimal testosterone levels in irregular cycles by helping to maintain normal blood sugar levels and metabolic signaling on a cellular level, leading to happy hormones and renewed energy. Ginger contains bioactive compounds such as gingerols that possess antioxidant properties, which help maintain a healthy inflammatory response, protect our mitochondria, and aid balanced hormones via the gut-hormone axis.*

L-Carnitine super-charges this formula to activate your metabolic spark by helping to convert fatty acids to energy within the mitochondria, making metabolic fuel available to burn. This powerful amino acid has been shown to help maintain normal levels of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides, as well as promote appetite balance, even in the context of hormone concerns. As L-Carnitine helps us utilize our fuel, this formula adds an extra layer of support for those embarking on an exercise regimen and lifestyle change. As a potent mitochondrial helper and antioxidant, L-Carnitine further supports reproductive health in women by supporting energy metabolism within ovarian follicles to maintain healthy ovulation.*

WHY THE PAIRING
The story behind the formula
While working as a clinical herbalist during my schooling, I noticed I was drawn to helping clients with a specific pattern of cycle irregularity that was driven by metabolic function and stress, and sorely affected their quality of life. These women mirrored the pattern I was seeing and experiencing in my own body (as I was battling insulin signaling issues that affected my hormones, mood and more) and I felt deeply connected to their stories.
As I shared what I was learning from working with these clients with my online community, I realized there were thousands of women struggling, as ‘cysters’ around the world were looking for support.
After spending years thoroughly understanding the root cause factors within this pattern of imbalance (insulin signaling and glucose regulation, specific nutrient deficiencies, mitochondrial function and oxidative stress), I began to see firsthand that with the right lifestyle changes, nutrition, herbs and nutraceuticals, a true difference could be made in the lives of thousands of women struggling with their cycles.
We got busy designing a super-kit that could address both the hormonal and metabolic aspects of this picture. This comprehensive duo feels like the culmination of my clinical work, personal journey, and everything I’ve learned over the years by listening to the stories of women working hard to bring their bodies back into balance.*

Amazing!
"I have always had mild PCOS symptoms, but suffered a major hormonal imbalance after experiencing mold toxicity from my apartment in a big city. After quickly moving out, for the last 3 years, it’s been impossible for me to lose weight. Just for some perspective - I’ve lived a healthy life, eaten clean and been weightlifting for many years, so a healthy lifestyle has never been the issue. So when I gained 30 pounds out of nowhere within a few months and couldn’t drop a single pound, I knew something was off. I started trying everything. I’ve seen doctors, naturopaths, nutritionists, tried new supplements, tried new meal plans – everything. Nothing was working. I personally didn’t want to try medications, so I didn’t give up on looking for a more natural route. I’ve been a fan of other OO products, so I decided to try this on a whim 3 weeks ago, and have dropped 6 pounds since then. I’m a lot less inflamed, and using the bathroom more regularly. This is MIRACULOUS for me considering what I’ve gone through. Hopefully the progress continues! I never leave reviews, but had to come share in case this helps someone else. Thank you for creating Metabolic Guard!"
Metabolic guard
"The ingredients in this is amazing. The only thing I will say is that it's got a strong spicy-ish taste."
Subtle changes
"Helps my blood sugar response. I have also notice a shift in my overall energy."
Love
"Been using this product on and off past few years and I definitely feel like it has really helped move the needle with my metabolism and blood sugar health. Take a dose each morning with ACV shot before my first meal. Do find it a bit too spicy for me undiluted but I just add it to water. Feel like it has helped me lose a pound or two more easily when combined with a consistent healthy eating and workout routine. Feel like it just helps to give my body a lil health boost!"
I haven’t noticed any difference
"I even taking this a few months and haven’t noticed anything. Not sure what I should be looking for. Still night waking."
Good stuff
"I’ve been taking this daily and had to stop for a while during a stomach bug. I definitely felt a difference not taking it."
A new staple in my cabinet
"I honestly love this! As someone who has been off of caffeine for over 3 years now, this seems to just give me a subtle consistent boost throughout the day and I feel like i rarely have cravings anymore. Definitely recommend."
Makes for a great tea & less sleepy
"So far so good! I like adding some lemon and warm water for a morning tea to get me started for the day, and I will also add glucobitters before lunch. I really don't get sleepy like I used to after meals."
IT WORKS!!
"Olivia! You’ve done it again!!! Every single tincture I’ve used of yours has worked wonders for my body. I have been following you and your journey for years, and I am so thankful for you! I was actually trying to figure out what I could cut out to alleviate some of my monthly budget, and this formula was one I had considered just not sure if it was doing anything for me in particular. Well, I just had a dr appt this week, and my insulin levels had come down 1. 7 points and are now in the healthy range! I truly believe this is all due to your Metabolic Guard. After a long time of eating perfectly for blood sugar balance, eating “in order”, doing weight training, doing everything I knew how to do, my insulin numbers weren’t budging. Enter Metabolic Guard and ta-da! THANK YOU, THANK YOU for making affective formulas that truly help the body heal. I am forever grateful."
