Product Description:
UltraMeal® PLUS 360° RICE is a medical food formulated to
provide specialized, multi-mechanistic nutritional support for patients
with hypercholesterolemia
by supplying a combination of acacia extract, reduced iso-alpha acids
(RIAA), and plant sterols.
In individuals with metabolic syndrome and high cholesterol,
UltraMeal PLUS 360° RICE has been clinically shown†† to improve the
following cardiovascular risk factors:
- Reduce total and LDL cholesterol levels
- Increase HDL cholesterol ("good cholesterol") levels
- Lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels
Each serving of UltraMeal PLUS 360° RICE provides:
- 15 grams of low-allergenic-potential rice protein: an easily digestible soure of high quality protein suitable for those who want to avoid soy and milk products.
- 2 g of plant sterols per serving. The NIH recommends
consumption of 2 grams of plant sterols to promote healthy cholesterol
levels. Foods containing at least 0.65 g per serving of plant sterol
esters, eaten twice a day with meals for a daily total intake of at
least 1.3 g as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may
reduce the risk of heart disease.
- Selective kinase response modulators (SKRMs) in the forms of RIAA and acacia extract.
- 5-methyl tetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF)—a body-ready, nature-identical folate.
- High quality foundation nutrition for patients with hypercholesterolemia.
THE NATIONAL CHOLESTEROL EDUCATION PANEL OF THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH RECOMMENDS A HEALTHY DIET AND REGULAR
EXERCISE, ALONG WITH THE CONSUMPTION OF 2 GRAMS OF PLANT STEROLS AND 10-25 GRAMS OF FIBER DAILY, TO PROMOTE CARDIOVASCULAR
HEALTH.
