Gastrointestinal Health Introducing... GI Sustain Medical Food TM Improved Formula for the Management of Leaky Gut Syndrome GI Sustain (formerly UltraClear SUSTAIN® medical food) now contains the prebiotic IMO (isomalto-oligosaccharides)—a gentle, naturally sweet fiber that improves flavor but has a low glycemic index. IMO selectively nourishes beneficial bacteria—such as lactobacillus and bifidobacteria—to promote intestinal microbial balance. The blend of fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and inulin has been removed from this formula. Addresses underlying issues associated with leaky gut syndrome Designed for optimal patient compliance • Promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria to address dysbiosis. • Powder form for easy dosing. • Supports gastrointestinal (GI) mucosal integrity. • Naturally sweet, pleasant flavor. • Nourishes the cells of the colonic mucosa. • Easy-to-follow program guide with dietary plan. • Features low-allergy-potential, readily digestible macronutrients to complement an elimination diet for patients with food intolerances and sensitivities. • Formulated for easy digestion. Gastrointestinal Health Leaky Gut Syndrome: a Risk Factor for Multiple Chronic Conditions Leaky gut syndrome—or increased intestinal permeability—describes damage to the intestinal mucosal lining, causing leaks in this protective barrier. Enlarged spaces between the cells of the gut wall allow undigested food and other potentially harmful compounds (e.g., bacteria, toxins, waste) to enter the bloodstream. This can trigger digestive and other symptoms, such as bloating, gas, bowel irregularities, increased food sensitivities, and compromised liver detoxification function. Potential associations with leaky gut syndrome: •Digestivedysfunction •Poordiet •Foodsensitivities •Bacterialovergrowth •Immunefunction •Certainmedications GI Sustain: Formulated for Patients with Leaky Gut Syndrome GI Sustain is a medical food delivered as a nutritionally supplemented powdered drink mix. A medical food should be used under the supervision of a physician or other healthcare practitioner and is intended for the specific dietary management of a disease or condition. GI Sustain is formulated to provide specific vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients to support patients with leaky gut syndrome who have chronic digestive dysfunction.
