Modified citrus pectin (MCP) is a super nutraceutical backed by impressive research. This amazing substance starts off as pectin, a common soluble fiber found in large quantities in apple skins and the rinds of citrus fruits. Pectin itself has many beneficial qualities, including lowering cholesterol and acting as a bulking agent in the intestines. Because of the large size of pectin molecules, its actions are limited to its activity in the digestive tract.
Now, scientists have learned to modify pectin molecules into smaller, less complex ones. The result is modified citrus pectin (MCP). Its molecules are small enough to travel into the bloodstream where they can interact with other cells in the blood or tissues.
In Modified Citrus pectin (MCP), you'll learn that not only does MCP have the same beneficial effects as pectin, but it also has the extraordinary added benefit of protecting against cancer, cancer progression, and heart disease. Of all diseases, MCP has been studied most extensively for prostate cancer, one of the most common cancers in men. MCP has been shown to slow PSA doubling time, to stop the spread of prostate cancer, and kill prostate cancer cells. Moreover, you'll learn how it may lower cholesterol, reduce atherosclerosis, remove heavy metals and environmental toxins from the body, and prevent and reduce Alzheimer's disease.
