🌿 Supplement Sunday Spotlight: Modified Citrus Pectin (MCP)

 


Modified Citrus Pectin is a natural compound derived from the peel and pulp of citrus fruits, but it's more than just a fiber. Through a unique enzymatic process, the pectin is "modified" into a form that's easily absorbed into the bloodstream, where it can work its magic.

MCP is particularly known for its ability to bind to galectin-3, a protein involved in inflammation, fibrosis, and cancer progression. By blocking galectin-3, MCP has been shown in studies to:

  • Inhibit tumor growth and metastasis

  • Support immune system modulation

  • Promote detoxification

  • Improve cellular communication and tissue repair

One of its most exciting benefits? Its potential to lower elevated CEA levels in certain individuals.
