Product Review
Supreme is based on a premise of the simpler and higher quality the source of the product is, the better. Thankfully, they have done that and as a result, have come out with the product Lectin Protect. The issue of lectins has become better known recently due to the work of Steven Gundry MD and others. For those with gut/digestive issues lowering the lectin load in the diet as well as taking lectin binding agents can make major shifts in your health. Avoiding all lectins is impossible but it is advisable to decrease your exposure.
Lectin Protect has three ingredients: Bladderwrack, Okra, and Larch bark. There are a few lectin binding protects on the market. Supreme Nutrition decided to look at the research and produce the whole natural substances that appear to have lectin binding properties which perform the best.
Lectins are carbohydrate binding proteins found in your foods. Though they probably exist in all foods to some extent, they are highest in beans, grains, grain and bean fed animal products, nuts and seeds, and nightshades.
Lectins are resistant to breakdown by the body's digestive enzymes and to most methods of cooking. Eating them in excess or even in small amounts in susceptible people can contribute to a myriad of health problems (especially in those with gut/digestive imbalances of the micro-organisms and/or food sensitivities).
Larch bark can help bind not only lectins but block lectin binding sites in the body. Arabinogalactans have also been to help protect one against the common cold and stimulate the immune system to fight off infections.
Contraindications:
Consult your physician if you have a bleeding disorder, hyperthyroidism, are pregnant, trying to get pregnant, or have had an organ transplant.
Recommended dosage:
2 capsules 3x per day for the first bottle, with meals. After that take 2 with each meal that contains higher lectin foods (beans, grains, nightshades, seeds, and grain fed animal products)
