Modified Citrus Pectin (MCP in short) is also known as low molecular citrus pectin. It is a water-soluble polysaccharide fiber extracted from cell walls and peels of citrus fruits such as lemon, orange, etc. It is an amazing small molecular dietary fiber. Zhejiang Gold Kropn Co. is the first and only producer of low molecular pectin in Asia.

How does MCP support cardiovascular health?

1. Reduce blood lipid
Pectin has remarkable effect on reducing human blood triglyceride and cholesterol; it can prevent arteriosclerosis, hypertension, coronary heart disease and other cardiovascular diseases.

Reducing the intake of exogenous fat and energy
MCP is not easy to degrade in the upper digestive tract, with majority of it cannot be digested and absorbed. Because of its water-holding characteristic and large-molecular structure, after absorbing water in the GI tract, MCP can fill the intestinal tract, increase the feeling of satiety, delay gastric emptying time, thus affect the response of hormone secretion to the dietary food intake, reduce the intake of fat and energy.

Reduce endogenous lipid absorption

Absorption function:
The high viscosity and macro-molecular structure enable MCP to absorb grease-like material such as chyle fat and cholesterol, then such materials can be discharged with feces, resulting in the reduction of absorption rate of dietary cholesterol.

Physical barrier function:
MCP can combine with glycoprotein on the small intestinal epithelium mucosa cells, then forming a thick layer of film, which limited the rate of absorption as a physical barrier, prevent the dietary cholesterol from spreading to the intestines mucous membrane cells, greatly interfere with the absorption of dietary cholesterol.

2. Reduce blood glucose
MCP could adjust blood glucose by delaying the intestinal absorption of sugars and lipids.
The function of reducing blood sugar closely related to its effect on promoting insulin secretion. MCP is fermented to produce a short-chain fatty acid in intestine, it can adjust hormones, promote the generation of hypoglycemic hormone and suppress hyperglycemic hormones.

MCP does not increase the secretion of insulin, but do effect on glucose metabolism enzyme. Through adjusting the activity of sugar metabolism related enzyme, MCP can promote the use of glucose, inhibit sugar dysplasia, thus to regulate sugar metabolic disorder and insulin resistance effect, achieving the purpose of regulating blood glucose.

3. Reduce blood pressure 
Salt is one of the reasons that lead to high blood pressure. However, MCP can adsorb sodium compounds in the body, helps them to excrete out of body, reducing salt absorption rate, thus to lower blood pressure.

MCP can accelerate the conversion and discharge of cholesterol through a variety of mechanisms, so as to prevent and treat hyperlipidemia induced atherosclerosis and hypertension.
Pectin can decrease the level of plasma angiotensin II and endothelin, thus to lower blood pressure.

MCP can not only regulate blood pressure directly by its vascular diastole function, but also protect vascular endothelial cells, inhibit smooth muscle cell proliferation, regulate platelet aggregation, affecting the myocardial systolic function and myocardial cell apoptosis. MCP can promote the generation of NO and thus reduce the artery systolic blood pressure of hypertension patients.

Suggested Usage: 2-3 times a day, 3g per time, better before meals. Add to water/juice/milk, etc.
Shelf life: 24 months

Safety of MCP
FAO and WHO recommended MCP as safe component without daily intake limitation.
We use high quality Argentina imported lemon, carefully selected the best quality raw materials.
Use 100,000 grade GMP purification plant, strictly control every step of the production process. Do not add any colorings, flavorings, additives, etc.
