Can Calcium D-Glucarate Help Reduce Estrogen In The Body?

Calcium D-Glucarate

Calcium D-Glucarate is quite similar to glucaric acid which is naturally occurring. Glucaric acid is combined with calcium to form supplements. It helps in detoxifying the body by getting rid of harmful substances and used hormones like testosterone, estrogen and progesterone.

While anti-oxidants neutralize the free radicals in the body and thus help in the process of detoxification, calcium d-glucarate, by the process of conjugation and glucuronidation, can help eliminate toxins as well. Calcium D-Glucarate helps the toxins and hormones to be bound to water soluble substances and get eliminated from the body rather than circulate in the blood stream over and over. During glucuronidation, the bound complex containing an active substance and a toxin is called glucuronic acid. Carcinogens when bound with glucuronic acid forms glucuronide complex.

Calcium D-Glucarate inhibits an enzyme beta-glucuronidase that can break the bonds present in the toxins and hormones. Thus, the estrogen in the glucuronide complex can be safely eliminated with the intervention of calcium d-glucarate.

Calcium D-Glucarate can indirectly help in preventing cancers by removing toxins that aid and abet in causing cancer. For example- it removes estrogen which is known to trigger breast cancer and uterine cancer and make a hormonal imbalance in both sexes.
