NOW Modified Citrus Pectin

NOW® Modified Citrus Pectin (MCP) is a patented, low molecular weight citrus pectin that can pass through the intestinal barrier so it can work systematically. MCP can bind to and facilitate the excretion of low levels of heavy metals that commonly come from mild environment exposure. Studies indicate that modified citrus pectin promotes healthy urinary excretion of heavy metals, from typical everyday exposures without altering the retention of other nutritional minerals, including calcium magnesium iron, copper and selenium. In addition, MCP has been shown to support healthy cellular growth and reproduction.
