UltraMeal® Plus 360° Medical Food Program

Shown to more effectively address CVD risk factors than a ow-glycemic-load dietary plan and exercise alone

The results are in:
In a recently completed 12-week, open-labeled, randomized, 2-arm study of 44 subjects fulfilling 3 or more metabolic syndrome criteria, individuals who participated in the UltraMeal® Plus 360° Medical Food Program were shown to have:

Statistically greater reductions in lipid parameters

Fasting serum cholesterol
Cholesterol/HDL ratio
Triglycerides
Triglyceride/HDL ratio

Statistically greater reduction in serum homocysteine
Significant increase in HDL ("good") cholesterol
Persistent lowering effects on apoB and apoB/apoA1 ratio (Table 1)

ApoB may be a better indicator of CVD risk than total cholesterol or LDL
ApoB/apoA1 ratio is a newly recognized, increasingly significant indicator of CVD risk
