Glucuronidation allows for the detoxification of endogenous compounds such as hormones and exogenous toxins such as drugs and carcinogens. During glucuronidation, glucuronic acid binds to potentially toxic compounds forming glucuronide conjugates. These newly formed glucuronide conjugates allow toxins, carcinogens and hormones to be safely eliminated from the body via the biliary tract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeta-glucuronidase is an enzyme produced by the colonic microflora. It has a detrimental effect on detoxification by deconjugating glucuronide conjugates that are formed during phase 2 detoxification.3 This breaking of the toxin-glucuronic acid bond allows for toxins and hormones to be reabsorbed rather than excreted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncreased beta-glucuronidase activity has been associated with an increased risk of certain cancers including breast, prostate and colon.2,4 By inhibiting beta-glucuronidase, calcium D-glucarate supports phase 2 detoxification by preventing the hydrolysis of glucuronide conjugates and increasing the detoxification and elimination of hormones, toxins and carcinogens.5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe acidic environment of the stomach allows for the metabolism of calcium D-glucarate into D-glucaric acid.3 Further metabolism of D-glucaric acid results in the formation of D-glucaro-1,4-lactone ord-glucaro-6,3-lactone.

Glucuronidation allows for the detoxification of endogenous compounds such as hormones and exogenous toxins such as drugs and carcinogens.
