Product Information
Medipro is a good product for people who need a supplement with protein and extra nutrients, such as individuals on weight loss programs, athletes, children, and the elderly. For anyone who may not be getting enough important nutrients from the diet and has difficulty swallowing pills, Medipro is an excellent choice.*
Medipro provides a comprehensive multi with calcium, magnesium, and potassium bound to citrate-malate – the most soluble and absorbable of these mineral chelates, as well as 21 grams of protein per serving, from easily assimilated and low-allergenicity hydrolyzed whey protein, instead of the more allergenic casein, soy, or egg protein.*
Medipro also contains a full range of trace minerals and a full scope of highly absorbed vitamin co-factors. Click on this link to find out more about active vitamin co-factors.

INTERACTIONS
Folinic acid and 5-methyltetrahydrofolate supplementation is not recommended concurrent with methotrexate cancer therapy, as they can interfere with methotrexate's anti-neoplastic activity; however, these folate sources have not been shown to interfere with the anti-inflammatory activity of methotrexate. An individual taking methotrexate for psoriasis or rheumatoid arthritis can safely take a supplement containing folate.
