• Therapeutic levels of B vitamins
• Contains mineral citrates for mitochondrial support*
• Nutrients delivered in therapeutic amounts*
• Specialty nutrients for promoted metabolism and blood sugar balance*

ULTRA BODY PROTEIN functional food is designed to enhance fat loss while preserving lean tissue to support healthy body composition. Ultra Body Protein Plus is formulated to support healthy metabolic activity. Stimulants such as ephedra and ma huang are not used. Instead, Ultra Body Protein Plus helps promote fat cell metabolism only. That means no jitters, rapid heart rates, insomnia, heart palpitations, prostate swelling, or urinary retention. Ultra Body Protein Plus is designed to be safe and effective.*

Ultra Body Protein Plus provides nutrients for science-based weight loss and blood sugar stability. It is a high-protein, low-carbohydrate, low-fat, multivitamin/mineral, specialty nutrient beverage that can be used long term with a balanced diet and exercise program to achieve your desired body composition goals.*

PEA, RICE, AND CHLORELLA PROTEINS provide a unique and great-tasting protein base. The new Ultra Body Protein Plus provides proteins that have a low-allergenic potential and contribute a delicious, creamy consistency your patients will love.

B VITAMINS take part in numerous chemical processes, including maintenance of blood sugar balance and assisting in normal cellular metabolism. Ultra Body ProteinPlus provides therapeutic levels of B vitamins and can be used as a meal replacement, between meals (for blood sugar balance), or with a small, well-balanced meal to achieve weight loss goals.*

SELECTED CITRATE MINERAL CHELATES: Minerals are critical to health and to the body’s ability to properly maintain stable blood sugar levels. However, for minerals to be of any therapeutic benefit, they must be absorbed. Selected minerals in Ultra Body Protein Plus are presented as citrates to support cells’ metabolic and enzymatic efficiency.*

CHROMIUM levels found in the Ultra Body Protein Plus, when consumed two to three times per day, have been shown to be nutritionally beneficial in balancing blood sugar levels, reducing serum triglyceride levels in insulin insensitive individuals, and balancing serum HDL levels. In addition, chromium is considered the key nutrient in glucose tolerance factor (GTF), which researchers believe increases insulin receptor sensitivity and enhances glucose transport into cells. Improving insulin sensitivity is key to enhancing fat cell metabolism and burning triglycerides as a fuel during a weight loss program.*

PHASEOLAMIN is a protein extracted from white kidney beans and is known to have anti-alpha amylase activity. Clinical trials in America, Italy, Japan, and Norway have shown a 66% to 75% reduction in starch absorption when phaseolamin is consumed. Placebo-controlled clinical trials found that overweight individuals consuming phaseolamin as part of their diet lost an average of half a pound per week while the placebo group lost only 0.1 pounds over four weeks.*

GUAR GUM has been added to assist in further flattening of the post-prandial glucose response. Guar gum appears to affect carbohydrate absorption by retarding the emptying of the stomach, inhibiting starch degradation, and reducing glucose absorption in the small intestine.*

ALPHA-KETOGLUTARATE has been traditionally used for preventing muscle protein depletion after surgery or trauma and is included to support muscle protein synthesis.*

GREEN TEA is included as a source of polyphenols and epigallocatechin gallate, shown to be protective against oxidative stress. In addition, green tea is a source of caffeine and has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity and promote metabolism.*
