Mo is a co-factor for sulphite oxidase, necessary for the metabolism of sulphur-containing amino acids; xanthine oxidase contributes to the antioxidant capacity of the blood; aldehyde oxidase joins with xanthine oxidase in the metabolism of medications and toxins and mitochondrial amidoxime-reducing component, which boosts the removal of toxic substances. Mo is an antagonist to copper which makes it effective in reducing fibrotic, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. It may inhibit pulmonary and liver fibrosis as well as may protect against cancer, especially esophageal cancer. It is a component of several important interactions that lead to detoxifying the liver. It is involved in the pathways of purine degradation and the formation of uric acid and is involved in breaking down these waste products. Consider multiple chemical sensitivities to MSG, sulphites, formaldehyde, aromatic compounds, smoke, perfume, automotive exhaust, and internal environment out-gassing; rule out vitamin B12 deficiency. Use for fibrotic liver, fibromyalgia, autoimmune deficiencies and all inflammatory processes. It is also involved in the chemical reactions that form bone, cartilage and blood.
