Bio-Inflammatory Plus powder is a comprehensive functional food, science based, and inflammation reduction program. It is packed full of nutrients and is provided in a powder form for ease of digestion and assimilation.
Inflammatory compounds can be part of the bodys own metabolic waste products or they may be environmental toxins, such as heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, solvents, etc. These compounds can act as free radicals, which damage the tissues and liberate inflammatory cytokines and prostaglandins in the process. BioInflammatory Plus is designed to reduce inflammatory compounds with specialty nutrients and antioxidants (free radical quenchers).
After neutralizing these inflammatory compounds, Bio-Inflammatory Plus assists the liver in removing toxins from the body. It does this by assisting the livers Phase 1 and Phase 2 detoxification pathways. Bio-Inflammatory Plus helps the liver convert insoluble inflammatory toxins, which are difficult to remove from the body, to soluble toxins, which are more easily removed.
All nutrients are provided in therapeutic amounts. Biologically active forms of the B vitamins are used and all minerals are bonded to highly absorbable carriers. It is designed to quench inflammation naturally and safely.
Bio-Inflammatory Plus powder is smooth and easy to incorporate into a daily routine. In addition, the balanced proportions of protein, carbohydrate and fats help to keep blood sugar level and your energy up.
Follow the Bio-Inflammatory Plus Diet for best results. This Elimination-Challenge diet is made up of easily digestible foods, which rarely cause allergic/inflammatory reactions. Typical allergy foods (gluten containing grains-wheat, rye, oats, barley, milk and dairy products, egg products, citrus fruits, peanuts, etc.) are avoided initially.
After an initial treatment period (duration depending on response), suspect allergic foods can be reintroduced slowly to determine whether they can be safely incorporated into your patients long-range diet plan. Optionally, allergy testing can be administered for those who do not wish to follow an Elimination-Challenge approach.
When an individual can benefit from a comprehensive, science based inflammation reduction program, try BioInflammatory Plus for positive results. BioInflammatory Plus is packed full of nutrients and is provided in a powder form for ease of digestion and assimilation. Inflammatory compounds include metabolic waste products and environmental toxins such as heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, solvents, etc. Within the body, these componds can act as free radicals, which damage the tissues and liberate inflammatory cytokines and prostaglandins. BioInflammatory Plus is a state-of-the-art system designed to reduce inflammatory compounds with specialty nutrients and antioxidants (free radical quenchers). After neutralizing these inflammatory compounds, BioInflammatory Plus supports the liver in removing them from the body by assisting the livers Phase 1 and Phase 2 detoxification pathways. BioInflammatory Plus helps the liver convert insoluble inflammatory toxins, which are difficult to remove from the body, to soluble toxins, which are more easily removed. BioInflammatory Plus is easy to incorporate into a daily routine and the balanced proportions of protein, carbohydrate, and fats help to keep your patients blood sugar and energy levels stable.
BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE B VITAMINS are taken up and used as is by the cells of the body. Therefore, no burden is placed on the liver to phosphorylate them or on the kidneys to eliminate them. In contrast, biologically inactive B vitamins must go through an activation process that takes place in the liver. Unfortunately, most products supply their B vitamins in the inactive form. These are rapidly removed from the blood stream by the kidneys and excreted from the body leaving little time for the liver to convert them into active forms. Biologically active B vitamins take part in numerous chemical processes including detoxification and anti-inflammatory pathways.
MINERALS are critical to your health and to your bodys ability to properly detoxify and protect itself from free radical damage. However, for minerals to be of any therapeutic benefit, they must be absorbed. Unlike many products, BioInflammatory Plus does not cut costs here. In BioInflammatory Plus, you will find only the best fully bonded mineral transporters available. These carriers provide the highest absorption and transportation to key sites in the body where each mineral can support the cells health and anti-inflammatory capacity.
Specialty Nutrients are present in clinically relevant levels to provide additional antioxidant/anti-inflammatory protection and support both Phase 1 and Phase 2 detoxification pathways in the liver.
N-acetyl L-cysteine (NAC) is a form of the amino acid L-cysteine. It acts as an antioxidant by promoting the production of glutathione. Glutathione protects tissues from free radical damage and acts as a powerful chelator of metabolic and environmental toxins.
Niacinamide acts with NAC to help quench inflammation by inhibiting poly (ADP-ribose) synthitase (PARS). PARS can activate inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor alpha. As early as the 1950s niacinamide was shown to reduce pain, inflammation and stiffness in arthritis.
L-glutamine is essential for a healthy intestinal tract. It is a preferred fuel for intestinal cells and promotes their repair and integrity. In doing so, L-glutamine acts to reduce inflammation in the gut, an important source of systemic (general body) inflammation.
Bromelain is a potent anti-inflammatory enzyme. It has been shown to actually digest inflammatory compounds. Bromelain quenches inflammation at its source, the molecules that create it.
Hesperidin as a member of the lemon bioflavonoids has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. One way it works, is by stabilizing the tissue bound mast cell. Mast cells produce inflammatory histamines and leukotrienes. By stabilizing the mast cell wall, hesperidin reduces the release of these potent inflammatory compounds. Hesperidin also inhibits the pro-inflammatory metabolism of arachidonic acid.
Methylsufonylmethane (MSM) provides an organic source of biologically available sulfur. Sulfur is essential for connective tissue repair and integrity throughout the body and plays an important role in liver detoxification (sulfation) and immune systems. MSM is naturally occurring in the body. Persons with sulfur antibiotic allergy, need not worry, MSM is safe. Even high doses are well tolerated in toxicity studies.
White Willow Bark: is traditionally used to treat pain. The efficacy of this botanical is due mainly to the proportion of salicin present. The salicin which is a precursor to salicylic acid works as an antipyretic, antiphlogistic and as an analgesic.
Papain, Trypsin, Chymotrypsin and Serrapeptase: are proteolytic enzymes. Administration of proteolytic enzymes may speed healing of injuries. Proteolytic enzymes have allowed athletes to return to performance sooner than control groups. Chymotrypsin, and trypsin have been shown to reduce edema and inflammation.
Contraindications: A history of previous sensitivity to any of the products ingredients. Any condition for which any of the ingredients in this product are adverse or contraindicated.
Caution: BioInflammatory Plus has not been tested in pregnancy, in breastfeeding women, or in studies with children and, therefore, cannot be recommended for use with these patients.
Take BioInflammatory Plus capsules in addition to the powder for more intense anti-inflammatory treatment. It assists in more effective neutralization and removal of free radical inflammatory agents, metabolic waste products, heavy metals, solvents and any number of chemical toxins.

BioInflammatory Plus Powder: (mix in water or in juice) Days 1-2: Consume 1/2 scoop of BioInflammatory Plus two times per day along with three meals from the safe food list (BioInflammatory Plus Diet). Days 3-7: Consume 1 scoop of BioInflammatory Plus two times per day along with three meals from the safe food list (BioInflammatory Plus Diet). Days 8-25: Consume 2 scoops of BioInflammatory Plus two times per day along with three meals from the safe food list (BioInflammatory Plus Diet). Days 26 and beyond: Consult with your health care practitioner. Your doctor may feel that you would benefit from ongoing support.
Reintroduction of questionable foods avoided during BioInflammatory Plus Detox: To gain the most benefit from your BioInflammatory Plus detoxification, it is best to go slowly when reintroducing foods back into your diet. It is entirely possible that part of the benefit you gained during the detox was due to avoidance of allergic or difficult to digest foods (food intolerances). Therefore, now is a good time to have your health care provider allergy test you or enter into the reintroduction phase of your program. When reintroducing foods it is best to eat them in their whole form. Do not buy packaged foods with many ingredients. If you have a reaction you and your health care provider will have a difficult time determining the culprit. Rather introduce foods in their pure forms. Eat only one new food per week. Keep a diary of your symptoms, how your feel each day. This way, if you have a delayed allergic or intolerant response, you will be able to determine which food is at fault and quickly eliminate it from your diet. The idea here is to create a safe diet for you to follow to continue to enjoy the health benefits you gained from the detox.
Continuation of BioInflammatory Plus: Special needs patients Discuss the need to maintain on BioInflammatory Plus (1-2 servings per day) with your health care provider, if you work in a toxic environment, or if you have chronic health issues in which ongoing support with a well-balanced food such as BioInflammatory Plus would be advantageous.

Personally I would never have thought to purchase this item if it were not for the online nutrionist. But I am glad that I did.
At the time of purchase I was experiencing a great deal of intestinal pain and after taking this product the pain went away rather quickly.
I was warned that this product was sweet to the taste and it was. I would say that that was the only draw back other than that it did the job!
