Intestimend

IntestiMend is an innovative sulfur, gastrointestinal, and detoxification
support supplement that utilizes a broad range of sulfur-based
accessory nutrients. Its active ingredients are sulfur-containing biotin,
glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate, Methylsufonylmethane (MSM),
a very small amount of N-acetyl cysteine as a synergist, along with
calcium D-glucarate that helps to detoxify the gut and catalyze the
formation of glycosaminoglycans, N-acetyl glucosamine as an anti-
microbial and gut anti-inflammatory, and D-ribose, the sugar
molecule backbone of the ribonucleic acid of DNA and RNA.

The healthy gastrointestinal tract is lined with a protective barrier of
sulfate that appears to provide resistance to a wide range of biological,
viral/immunological, dietary, inflammatory and toxicological
challenges. Compromises in sulfation chemistry from toxin exposure
may diminish this natural resistance that normally provides a
protective cell barrier function in the GI tract as well as the other
organs and tissues of the body.

IntestiMend is designed to provide precursor, multi-elemental and
catalyst support for the cellular protective barrier called
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGS), which are predominantly composed of
sulfur-bearing amino acids bonded to polysaccharide sugar molecules,
which are very often dysfunctional in the damaged intestines of
children on The Spectrum. Many parents of children on the Feingold
Diet that have had accidental ingestions of restricted foods or additives
have reported that IntestiMend completely halts the severe reaction
from these foods within 20-30 minutes. While it has not been yet
demonstrated, it may function in a similar manner with gluten/casein
food ingestions for children on the GFCF diet as well. IntestiMend
also works very well as a daily sulfur support supplement for children
presenting with low sulfur/sulfate.
