What is Unjury Protein?
Unjury Protein, a well-known name in medical-quality protein products, has recently introduced a new product called Protect & Restore Advanced Protein+. This innovative product is the first clinically supported medical food and co-therapy designed to work alongside GLP-1 RA anti-obesity medications (AOMs). The goal is to minimize the side effects that many people experience when using these medications.
The Need for Protect & Restore Advanced Protein+
GLP-1 RA AOMs are medications that help people lose weight significantly. However, up to 40% of people who use these drugs report side effects. These side effects can include the loss of lean muscle, nutrient deficiencies, digestive discomfort, metabolic dysfunction, and nausea. Given that an estimated one in eight American adults have taken a GLP-1 drug, the need for a solution to these side effects is clear.
Clinical Support and Research
The first two abstracts supporting the clinical benefits of Protect & Restore Advanced Protein+ were presented at the American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) Annual Meeting in San Diego. John P. Troup, Ph.D., Chief Science Officer at Unjury and Blueroot Health, stated that early clinical research is very encouraging. Larger clinical trials are currently in progress to further validate these findings.
Key Benefits of Protect & Restore Advanced Protein+
Protect & Restore Advanced Protein+ is designed to address four key nutrient-based issues:
- Promotes Muscle Mass and Strength: The unique whey protein blend with leucine and branched-chain amino acids is up to five times more effective at building muscle than whey protein alone. This can help minimize muscle loss during treatment.
- Replenishes Key Nutrients: The product delivers 17 essential vitamins and minerals to support daily nutrient requirements and ensure optimal nutrition.
- Promotes Healthy Digestive Function: Soluble and insoluble fibers in the product support stomach motility and minimize digestive discomfort, such as bloating and constipation.
- Reduces Nausea: Plant phytonutrients in the product can ease nausea, a common side effect reported with GLP-1 RA treatment.
Product Profile and Availability
Protect & Restore Advanced Protein+ offers a clean product profile. It is formulated without artificial flavors, sweeteners, or dyes, making it suitable for a wide range of patients. The product is available in two flavors: Tropical Twist and Chocolate Mocha. It comes in a 15-serving tub, priced at $59.95.
