Finding the right protein powder to meet the individual needs of your body can be difficult, especially with so many brands flooding the market with low-quality, poorly-dosed ingredients.

The Importance of Finding a Quality Protein Powder

Protein powders, particularly those made from low quality ingredients, pose a significant threat to the health of the liver. As the body’s central detoxifying organ, proper liver function is essential for human health and wellness. So, how to get all of the energizing and nourishing benefits of protein powders without also exposing the liver to these potential harms?

Perhaps the most important aspect of creating a liver-friendly protein powder is the selection of protein sources. Low quality proteins like those used within even the most popular supplement brands tend to be poorly absorbed in the digestive tract, making them less useful and place greater strain upon liver detoxification processes. As such, MediClear-SGS only uses rice and pea proteins which are widely acknowledged as the most useful and safe within the body. In addition to quality protein sources, this amazing powder also contains a unique blend of liver health support nutrients.

Ground-Breaking Ingredients for Liver Support

In a relatively recent discovery – 1992 at the John Hopkins University School of Medicine to be precise – a substance known as sulforaphane glucosinolate (SGS) was found in high concentrations within broccoli. It was also found that this substance may be the primary source of the amazing nutritional support properties that make cruciferous vegetables like broccoli a health and wellness dietary staple.¹

The leading research seems to indicate that SGS provides nutritional support via antioxidant and anti-inflammatory mechanisms. These include the induction of numerous enzymes, including glutathione transferases (GST), which serve as antioxidant response element (ARE) targets; as well as being heavily involved in xenobiotic detoxification. Meanwhile, SGS’s anti-inflammatory properties are rooted in the inhibition of cytokine production.² All of these supportive roles may be used to aid in the natural protection and function of the liver.

Not only does Thorne Research’s MediClear-SGS contain this cutting-edge antioxidant and anti-inflammatory support compound, it also contains a number of other important ingredients which may aid in liver health. These ingredients include milk thistle, green tea, N-acetyl-L-cysteine, and curcumin.
