🔬 What Makes Modified Citrus Pectin Different?

Modified Citrus Pectin (MCP) is a uniquely processed form of pectin derived from the peels and pulp of citrus fruits. Unlike regular dietary pectin (which is too large to be absorbed by the body), MCP is enzymatically modified into a low molecular weight, low esterified form that is absorbable through the gut wall and can exert systemic biological effects.

It’s this bioavailable structure that allows MCP to bind to and neutralize harmful compounds — such as heavy metals, environmental toxins, and galectin-3 — a protein increasingly implicated in inflammation, fibrosis, tumour progression, and metastasis.

🧠 Why Modified Citrus Pectin Matters

MCP is not just a source of soluble fibre — it is a bioactive therapeutic that plays roles in:

🛡️ Immune Modulation

• Enhances natural killer (NK) cell activity
• Helps balance immune surveillance and inflammatory response
• Supports the body’s defence against abnormal cellular growth

🧲 Heavy Metal Detoxification

• Binds to toxic metals like lead, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium
• Promotes safe removal through urinary excretion without depleting essential minerals

🧬 Galectin-3 Inhibition

• Galectin-3 is linked to fibrosis, chronic inflammation, and tumour metastasis
• MCP has been shown to block galectin-3, offering protective effects for the heart, kidneys, liver, and prostate

🩸 Prostate & Cellular Defence

• In vitro and clinical studies suggest MCP supports apoptosis of abnormal prostate cells
• May help reduce PSA levels and inhibit angiogenesis and metastasis in prostate cancer models
• Enhances cellular communication and intercellular adhesion, essential for healthy tissue regulation

📚 Key Research Highlights

• Clinical study (2008, Prostate Cancer & Prostatic Diseases):
  70% of men with rising PSA levels after prostate cancer treatment showed PSA stabilization or decline with MCP supplementation.
• Detox study (Eliaz, 2006):
  Subjects using MCP demonstrated a significant reduction in toxic heavy metal levels without loss of beneficial minerals like calcium or magnesium.
• Galectin-3 studies (Sartor, 2014 & others):
  MCP shown to downregulate galectin-3, which is a known biomarker and instigator of organ fibrosis, heart disease, and cancer cell adhesion.

✅ Recognised Benefits (Science-Based)

While EFSA has not yet published authorised health claims specific to MCP, its mechanisms are supported by peer-reviewed research and emerging clinical applications in:

• Detoxification and toxin binding
• Modulation of immune response and inflammation
• Prostate and cellular health support
• Anti-fibrotic and anti-metastatic activity via galectin-3 inhibition

⚙️ Key Ingredient

• Modified Citrus Pectin – produced using a proprietary low-heat enzymatic process
  ✔ Low molecular weight for enhanced absorption
  ✔ Rich in β-galactose residues for galectin-3 binding
  ✔ Non-GMO, vegan-friendly, and free from citrus allergens

💊 Suggested Use

• Take 2 – 4 capsules daily, divided doses with water or juice
• For therapeutic applications (e.g. detox or oncology support), doses of 5–15 grams/day have been used in clinical studies — consult your healthcare provider
• Best taken on an empty stomach to maximise absorption

🎯 Ideal For:

• Men seeking prostate health support and cellular protection
• Adults undergoing or recovering from environmental toxin exposure
• Individuals with chronic inflammation, fibrotic conditions, or cardiometabolic risk
• Those looking to support detox pathways without chelation side effects
• Health-aware consumers interested in longevity and immune regulation

🏷️ Conclusion

Target Toxins. Protect Cells. Support the Prostate.
Clinically studied Modified Citrus Pectin for safe detox, immune modulation, and cellular balance.

Caution

⚠️ Risks of Poor-Quality or Fake MCP Products

1. Unmodified Citrus Pectin Mislabelled as MCP

• True MCP undergoes a proprietary enzymatic and pH-controlled modification process to reduce molecular weight and degree of esterification, making it absorbable by the human body.
• Many low-cost brands skip this process, selling standard citrus pectin (used in jams/jellies) labelled as "modified," which is not bioavailable and ineffective.

2. No Verification of Molecular Weight

• Therapeutic MCP typically has a molecular weight of 10–15 kDa and low esterification (~5–10%). Many cheaper products are unverified or contain larger molecules that can’t be absorbed.

3. Lack of Standardization

• Legitimate MCP products are standardized to contain galactose-rich, low-methoxyl pectin fractions that bind to galectin-3, the key mechanism of action.
• Fake or low-end MCPs don’t disclose specs or galectin-binding activity, and are not supported by published clinical trials.

4. Contaminated or Adulterated Raw Materials

• Some products sourced from unregulated suppliers (particularly in regions with poor GMP enforcement) may be contaminated with:
• Heavy metals
• Solvent residues
• Pesticides
• Fillers (e.g., maltodextrin)

⚙️ Modified Citrus Pectin (MCP) – Bioavailable Detox & Cellular Health Support

Clinically Researched Citrus Pectin for Immune Modulation, Detoxification, and Prostate Wellness

🔬 What Makes Modified Citrus Pectin Unique?

Standard dietary pectin molecules are too large to be absorbed. Modified Citrus Pectin (MCP) is enzymatically treated to reduce molecular size (<15 kDa) and degree of esterification, enabling systemic absorption and targeted bioactivity.

This transformation allows MCP to interact directly with galectin-3 — a biomarker and driver of inflammation, fibrosis, and cellular dysregulation — while also acting as a selective binder of toxic metals, without affecting essential minerals.

🧪 Scientifically Studied Benefits

🛡️ Immune Modulation

• MCP enhances natural killer (NK) cell activation and immune surveillance without overstimulating the immune system.
