Metagenics UltraGlycemX™
Nutritional Support for
Dysglycemia
14 Servings |
UltraGlycemX™ is a specifically fortified, vegetarian, powdered medical food designed for nutritional
support of individuals with insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia. Insulin is the primary hormonal modulator
of blood glucose and has a significant impact on the onset and development of Type II diabetes. Additionally, insulin
activity helps regulate a variety of meatabolic activities; therefore, its proper control is important in the management
of weight loss, lipid disorders, heart disease, and hypertension.
UltraGlycemX™ is a pleasant tasting beverage mix formula that provides high-quality protein,
carbohydrate, and fat, with the inclusion of specific fibers, vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients to nutritionally
support insulin and glucose response. UltraGlycemX™ is free of dairy, lactose,
wheat, gluten, egg, yeast, artificial colors, and artificial flavors, and is suitable for inclusion in diets avoiding
these substances. UltraGlycemX™ provides nutrient support to individuals suspected of insulin resistance and
hyperinsulinemia when combined with a low-glycemic, high-fiber dietary program as provided in the UltraGlycemX
Patient Guide. When blended with water, UltraGlycemX
provides a balanced supplement or meal replacement.
