These compounds work by: Inhibiting Harmful Bacteria: Trans-isohumulones are particularly effective against bacteria like Lactobacillus brevis. Enhancing Gut Health: By reducing harmful bacteria, they help maintain a balanced gut microbiome, which is crucial for digestion and overall health. Mechanism of Action The effectiveness of trans-isohumulones is influenced by environmental factors such as pH levels and the presence of specific ions: pH Levels: Their antibacterial activity increases in lower pH environments, where they remain undissociated and most effective. Ions: The presence of monovalent cations (like potassium and sodium) enhances their activity, while divalent cations (like magnesium) can reduce it.   Work With Me: Mineral Balancing HTMA Consultation: https://www.integrativethoughts.com/category/all-products  My Instagram: @integrativematt My Website: Integrativethoughts.com   Advertisements:   Viva Rays: Use Code ITP for a Discount https://vivarays.com/   Zeolite Labs Zeocharge: Use Code ITP for 10% off https://www.zeolitelabs.com/product-page/zeocharge?ref=ITP Magnesium Breakthrough: Use Code integrativethoughts10 for 10% OFF https://bioptimizers.com/shop/products/magnesium-breakthrough Just Thrive: Use Code ITP15 for 15% off https://justthrivehealth.com/discount/ITP15 Therasage: Use Code Coffman10 for 10% off https://www.therasage.com/discount/COFFMAN10?rfsn=6763480.4aed7f&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=6763480.4aed7f   Chapters: 00:00 Introduction and Background 05:14 ISO Alpha: An Extract from Hops 09:21 The Benefits of ISO Alpha 14:31 The Subtle and Calming Effects of ISO Alpha 20:53 Studies on ISO Alpha 28:29 Introduction to Iso-Alpha and its Benefits 37:14 Iso-Alpha and Gut Health 46:50 Stimulating Brown Fat with Iso-Alpha 53:28 Conclusion and Future Research on Iso-Alpha   Takeaways: ISO Alpha is a brain health supplement made from an extract of hops called isohumulones. The product activates the vagus nerve and modulates dopamine release, leading to improved mood, focus, and mental clarity. ISO Alpha increases TTR protein levels, which help remove amyloid betas and plaque buildup in the brain, potentially reducing the risk of Alzheimer's. The benefits of ISO Alpha may be noticed after 60-90 days of use, and it offers a subtle and calming effect. Iso-Alpha is a natural compound derived from hops that has neuroprotective effects and reduces insulin resistance. It stimulates the vagus nerve and has potential benefits for cognitive function, weight management, and gut health. While there are no specific studies on its effects on conditions like a
