UltraClear RENEW is a medical food formulated to provide specialized nutritional support to help address altered pain signaling and neuromuscular function in patients with fibromyalgia. UltraClear RENEW is designed for individuals who may benefit from additional support for detoxification function, and features an array of nutrients in a low-allergen-potential rice protein base to support Phase II liver detoxification. In preliminary research with a small number of fibromyalgia patients with dental amalgams, administration of UltraClear RENEW was associated with significant decreases in FIQ (Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire) scores, including pain and stiffness.

Benefits:

• Preliminary laboratory research suggests that spent hops may induce the expression of metallothionein, an antioxiddant protein associated with the body's detoxification of some heavy metals.
• Preliminary laboratory work suggests that spent hops and prune extract may promote the activity of quinone reductase, a Phase II detoxification enzyme.
• Preliminary laboratory research suggests that pomegranate extract may increase the activity of glutathione-s-transferase (GST), an important Phase II detoxification enzyme.
• Provides glycine to support Phase II glycine conjugation, along with sulfate and L-cysteine to support Phase II sulfation.
• Supplies green tea catechins and mixed carotenoids to protect against reactive species generated during hepatic detoxification.
• Provides zinc, which some research suggests may help reduce oxidative stress associated with the metabolism and detoxification of heavy metals by beneficially influencing the activity and genetic expression of metallothionein.
• In preliminary research†, UltraClear RENEW and a modified elimination diet was associated with a decrease in FibroQuest total score (pain and stiffness score) and an increase in excretion of certain heavy metals (such as mercury).
• Comes with a Quick-Start Guide or a more comprehensive Patient Guide for complete program guidelines.
