Phase II Liver Support

Meaning

Phase II Liver Support refers to clinical and nutritional strategies aimed at optimizing the second, or conjugation, stage of the liver’s detoxification process, which is essential for rendering hormones and environmental toxins water-soluble for elimination. This critical phase involves biochemical reactions like glucuronidation, sulfation, and methylation, which attach small, polar molecules to hormone metabolites. Adequate Phase II function is vital for preventing the reabsorption of potentially harmful estrogenic or androgenic byproducts, thereby maintaining hormonal equilibrium and reducing disease risk.
