Benefits

The intestinal mucosa is one of the largest interfaces between the body and its environment: it absorbs the nutrients released by digestion while maintaining a separation with the internal environment. It relies on an epithelium whose cells are among the fastest renewing in the body, a process that draws on a wide range of vitamins and minerals. A limited variety of foods or increased requirements can make it difficult to cover all of these intakes at once: this is the purpose of a complete multi-nutrient formula such as UltraSustain.

Why choose UltraSustain?

UltraSustain brings together in a single powder three families of ingredients usually split across several supplements: a rice protein base enriched with lysine (521 mg), threonine (535 mg), cysteine (282 mg) and 1000 mg of L-glutamine; 2000 mg of oligofructose-enriched inulin (FOS), a soluble fibre of the fructan family; and a complex of 13 vitamins and 10 minerals, completed by 82.5 mg of choline, reduced glutathione and N-acetyl-L-cysteine.

The forms have been selected for their quality — pyridoxal-5-phosphate (B6), methylcobalamin (B12), calcium-L-methylfolate, L-selenomethionine, citrates for calcium, magnesium and zinc — and the vitamin D is of vegan origin. The rice base gives the formula a hypoallergenic profile: free from gluten, soy and lactose, and suitable for vegetarian diets. The adjustable dosage (1 or 2 scoops per day) allows the gradual introduction recommended by the manufacturer.

What does science say?

The nutrients in UltraSustain benefit from health claims authorised by the European Commission (Regulation (EU) No 432/2012):

- Vitamin A, riboflavin (B2) and niacin (B3) contribute to the maintenance of normal mucous membranes;

- Zinc and folate have a role in the process of cell division;

- Calcium contributes to the normal function of digestive enzymes;

- Vitamins A, C, D, B6, B12, folate, zinc, copper, iron and selenium contribute to the normal function of the immune system;

- Vitamins B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, C, folate, iron and magnesium contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue;

- Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, C, biotin, calcium, magnesium, iron, copper, iodine and phosphorus contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism;

- Vitamins C and E, riboflavin, zinc, selenium and copper contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative stress;

- Choline contributes to the maintenance of normal liver function and to normal lipid metabolism;

- Vitamin K contributes to normal blood clotting.

L-glutamine, inulin-FOS, reduced glutathione, N-acetyl-L-cysteine, the free amino acids and bamboo extract do not currently benefit from any health claim authorised at European level: they are mentioned solely as part of the product composition. To benefit from the effects described above, the recommended daily dose should be observed as part of a varied diet and a healthy lifestyle.
