focused nutritional support for oncology patients*
Supportive Care is a combination of botanicals and nutrients provided in amounts that scientific studies have found helpful for the nutritional support of individuals with cancer.* Indole-3-carbinol aids in the normal metabolism of hormones.* Green tea polyphenols are potent antioxidants.* Quercetin, Thorne's water-soluble quercetin, and ascorbic acid provide additional antioxidant support.* L-carnitine supports cellular mitochondrial function, which is essential to energy production and metabolism.*
With conventional cancer care, patients typically experience trauma and toxicity in the form of surgery, radiation, and/or chemotherapy. It is imperative these patients receive the best supplemental nutrients to counterbalance the effects of these interventions in depleting nutrients or interfering with their metabolism.* Research shows that targeted nutrient and botanical supplementation can provide important nutritional support to these individuals.*
Supportive Care is a key component of Thorne Research's Nutritional Support for Oncology Patients (NSOP) program that provides nutrients and botanicals to optimize the immune system and replace nutrients known to be depleted by conventional therapies.* Supportive Care was designed to be used in conjunction with Supportive Care II, a complete multiple vitamin-mineral formula for oncology patients.*
Supportive Care is not intended to substitute for any medication prescribed by a health-care practitioner, nor is Supportive Care intended to be an adjunct to or augment a particular therapy or drug action in the treatment of cancer.
