Product Description
Thorne Research introduces the newest product to its MediClear line – vanilla-flavored MediClear-SGS!
Sulforaphane Glucosinolate (SGS) and Enhanced Liver Support*
In addition to providing a blend of key botanical extracts, nutrients, and nutrient cofactors in an easy-to-use powder formula, MediClear-SGS offers enhanced liver support by adding sulforaphane glucosinolate (SGS) – an extract from the seeds and sprouts of select broccoli varietals – to up-regulate the body’s phase II detoxification enzymes.* SGS is also an indirect antioxidant that protects cells from damage by free radicals.* Each serving of MediClear-SGS contains 30 mg of sulforaphane glucosinolate – equivalent to eating 1.2 pounds of broccoli.
Detoxification Redefined by Phytosome Technology
MediClear-SGS contains curcumin, green tea, and grape seed extracts complexed as phytosomes for enhanced absorption and delivery to the tissues.* Phytosomes are specific plant extracts that are complexed to phosphatidylcholine, which increases the absorption and blood levels of the desired botanical constituent and enhances support of the body’s normal inflammatory response to toxic insults.*
Detoxification Cofactors
MediClear contains vitamins, minerals, botanicals, and amino acids for detoxification and liver support.* Its ingredients include milk thistle extract, glutathione, L-glutamine, NAC, and the best-utilized forms of vitamins – for example P5P (active B6), L-5-MTHF (active folate), and methylcobalamin (active B12).
Why Rice and Pea Protein?
The combination of rice and pea is used because of their low incidence of allergenicity. It is far more likely for dairy or soy proteins to initiate an allergic reaction. Using rice and pea proteins eliminates most allergenic proteins from the diet, while maintaining high-quality protein intake.

INTERACTIONS
5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) supplementation is not recommended concurrent with methotrexate cancer therapy, as it can interfere with methotrexate’s anti-neoplastic activity; however, this folate source has not been shown to interfere with the anti-inflammatory activity of methotrexate. An individual taking methotrexate for psoriasis or rheumatoid arthritis can safely take a supplement containing folate.
Curcumin has been shown to reduce the therapeutic efficacy of cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) in animal studies. In vitro research revealed that curcumin decreased camptothecin-induced death of cultured breast cancer cells. Curcumin might also interfere with the absorption and efficacy of the chemotherapy drug irinotecan, used to treat colon cancer. The concurrent use of curcumin with these agents should be avoided.
OTHER WARNING
This product is intended to be utilized in conjunction with a complete dietary program. Do not use in diets supplying less than 600 calories per day without complete medical supervision.
