Renew Life IntestiNEW

What is IntestiNEW?
IntestiNEW is a natural formula used to support the integrity and healthy function of the intestinal tract lining. It can be used by anyone who wishes to improve their intestinal health.

How is it delivered?
IntestiNEW is available in two forms: in a powdered supplement that can be mixed into water or juice, and in vegetable capsules.

What does it do?
IntestiNEW helps to rebuild and repair the intestinal tract lining, while also helping to reduce inflammation in the intestinal tract.

How does it work?
The intestinal tract is vital to your overall health and well-being, as this is where nutrients are absorbed. The intestinal wall secretes mucus which forms a `lining` that covers the surface of the intestinal tract. This lining is essential for proper digestion, immune function and overall health. The intestinal lining has many important functions, including:

1. Lubricating intestinal contents.
2. Helping with nutrient absorption by allowing properly digested nutrients into the bloodstream.
3. Serving as a protective barrier to prevent the absorption of unwanted toxins, parasites and undigested foods.

A healthy functioning intestinal tract replaces its cells about 2 times per week. The two main nutrients necessary to rebuild the intestinal lining are L-Glutamine and N-acetyl glucosamine. L-Glutamine has been shown to increase intestinal villous height and stimulate mucosal cell growth in the intestinal tract (Miller, 1999) while N-acetyl glucosamine, is required for tissue repair mechanisms (Salvatore et al, 2000).

By providing the body with a therapeutic dose of L-Glutamine as well as N-Acetyl-Glucosamine, IntestiNEW works to soothe and heal the damaged areas of the intestinal tract lining. This formula also provides ingredients which help to reduce inflammation and promote healing in the intestinal tract.

"A healthy intestinal lining helps determine the overall health of an individual. It plays a critical role in the absorption of beneficial nutrients and the blockage of unwanted compounds in the bloodstream".
- Dr. Leonard Smith, M.D, Gastrointestinal Specialist.

How do I take it?
Powder: Take one scoop of IntestiNEW powder mixed with water in the morning on an empty stomach.

What can I expect?
Those that suffer from leaky gut syndrome, poor intestinal health, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Colitis and Crohn`s disease should see an improvement in symptoms within 30 days of taking the product. Even if you do not suffer from these conditions, IntestiNEW can be used to maintain the overall health of your intestinal tract.
