Advanced Cortisol & Metabolic Support Formula
Stress is part of life—but supporting a healthy response to stress can make a difference in how you feel and perform. Black Magic Corti Block is a targeted two-ingredient formula featuring Knotweed Extract standardized to 95% Emodin plus Black Pepper Fruit Extract standardized to 95% Piperine.
Designed to support a balanced cortisol response and healthy insulin function, Corti Block combines a concentrated botanical active with piperine to complement its absorption and bioavailability.*
Why CortiBloc?
Cortisol is an essential hormone involved in the body's stress response, energy metabolism, blood sugar regulation, and numerous other physiological processes. Corti Block was formulated to provide nutritional support for maintaining a healthy cortisol and metabolic response.*
Research on emodin has found that it can inhibit 11β-HSD1, an enzyme involved in converting inactive cortisone into active cortisol. These findings come largely from laboratory and animal research, so they should be described as mechanistic support rather than proof that this supplement lowers cortisol in humans.
Key Ingredients & Benefits
Knotweed Extract (Polygonum cuspidatum) — 250 mg
Standardized to contain 95% Emodin
Emodin is a naturally occurring bioactive compound found in Polygonum cuspidatum. It has been studied for several metabolic pathways and provides the foundation of the Corti Block formula.
Potential benefits include:
-
Supports a healthy cortisol response:* Emodin has demonstrated activity against 11β-HSD1, an enzyme involved in local cortisol production.
-
Supports healthy insulin function and glucose metabolism:* Preclinical research has investigated emodin's effects on insulin-stimulated glucose uptake and other pathways involved in glucose metabolism.
-
Supports metabolic health:* Emodin continues to be studied for its effects on multiple pathways involved in metabolic function.
-
Provides botanical antioxidant support:* Polygonum cuspidatum contains numerous naturally occurring bioactive compounds that have been investigated for their biological activity.
Black Pepper Fruit Extract — 25 mg
Standardized to contain 95% Piperine
Piperine is the primary bioactive compound found in black pepper and is commonly incorporated into advanced supplement formulas as a bioavailability enhancer.
Potential benefits include:
-
Enhances bioavailability:* Piperine can influence intestinal and hepatic metabolism of certain compounds, potentially increasing their absorption and exposure.
-
Complements emodin specifically:* In an animal pharmacokinetic study, piperine significantly increased emodin exposure and inhibited its glucuronidation, although this has not yet established the same effect in humans.
-
Antioxidant and metabolic support:* Piperine has also been studied for antioxidant, inflammatory, and metabolic-health effects.
