Mediclear-SGS Chocolate 38.2 oz by Thorne – Nutritional Detox Support Protein Powder

Key Mediclear-SGS Chocolate 38.2 oz Benefits
- Provides plant-based protein to supply amino acids your body uses to maintain muscle and other tissues as part of balanced nutrition.
- Supports everyday antioxidant defenses with vitamin C and glutathione, alongside nutrients involved in normal cellular protection.
- Combines broccoli-derived SGS, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals to complement the nutritional needs of a practitioner-guided detoxification program.
How Mediclear-SGS Chocolate 38.2 oz Works
The body processes nutrients and unwanted compounds through coordinated enzyme systems, especially in the liver. Protein supplies amino-acid building blocks, while vitamins and minerals contribute to everyday metabolic reactions. Broccoli-derived SGS provides a precursor to sulforaphane, and the formula also supplies nutrients involved in antioxidant support. Nutritional support complements these normal processes; it is not a promise to remove a particular toxin.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Sulforaphane Glucosinolate: Broccoli-derived SGS is a precursor that intestinal microbes can convert to sulforaphane. Sulforaphane helps activate the cell’s own antioxidant and detoxification enzyme systems rather than acting only as a direct antioxidant. Conversion varies between people; SGS is not the same as a matching amount of ready-made sulforaphane.
- Pea Protein Isolate and Rice Protein: These complementary plant proteins are broken down during digestion into amino acids. The body uses those building blocks to maintain tissues and make enzymes, including enzymes involved in normal metabolism. This provides a nutritional foundation alongside the formula’s vitamins and minerals.
- Glycine: This amino acid supplies a building block for glutathione, one of the body’s internal antioxidants. Glycine also contributes to bile salts, which help the body digest dietary fats. These normal metabolic roles connect its nutritional value to the formula’s antioxidant and digestive support.
- Glutathione (Reduced): Glutathione helps cells maintain antioxidant defenses by participating in reactions that handle reactive compounds. It also supports normal nutrient metabolism. These are physiological roles of glutathione, not a promise that a serving will raise tissue glutathione to a particular level.
- Vitamin C (as Ascorbic Acid): Vitamin C helps protect cells from oxidative stress and supports collagen formation, the process used to build connective tissues. It also helps the body absorb nonheme iron from plant foods. These nutritional functions complement the protein and mineral content of this chocolate powder.

Who should take Mediclear-SGS Chocolate 38.2 oz?
The manufacturer’s directions are for adults and children 12 or more years of age. This chocolate powder is an option for people seeking a plant-protein supplement with a multi-vitamin/mineral profile. It contains a soy-derived ingredient and pea protein, so individual allergy history matters.
Are there any side effects of taking Mediclear-SGS Chocolate 38.2 oz?
Ingredient sensitivity or allergic reactions are possible, particularly with pea protein and a serious peanut allergy. The manufacturer’s warnings are: TAMPER EVIDENT: Use only if bottle is sealed. CALIFORNIA WARNING Risk of reproductive harm from exposure to lead. See www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/food . ALLERGY WARNING This product is contraindicated in an individual with a history of hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients. MediClear-SGS contains grape seed phytosome - a plant extract complexed with phospholipids, which are derived from soy. Phospholipids contain no soy protein. There are no other soy-based ingredients in MediClear-SGS. Individuals with a known, serious allergy to peanuts may occasionally react to other legumes, including peas. This product contains pea protein. If you have a known, serious peanut allergy, it is recommended to use this product with caution. PREGNANCY If pregnant, consult your health-care practitioner before using this product. INTERACTIONS 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) supplementation is not recommended concurrent with methotrexate cancer therapy, as it can interfere with methotrexate's anti-neoplastic activity; however, this folate source has 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. Curcumin has been shown to reduce the therapeutic efficacy of cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) in animal studies. In vitro research revealed that curcumin decreased camptothecin-induced death of cultured breast cancer cells. Curcumin might also interfere with the absorption and efficacy of the chemotherapy drug irinotecan, used to treat colon cancer. The concurrent use of curcumin with these agents should be avoided. This product is intended to be utilized in conjunction with a complete dietary program. Do not use in diets supplying less than 600 calories per day without complete medical supervision.
How does Mediclear-SGS Chocolate 38.2 oz support overall health?
Pea and rice proteins provide amino acids for maintaining body tissues, while glycine contributes to glutathione and bile salt production. Vitamin C contributes antioxidant support and collagen formation. The formula combines these nutritional roles rather than replacing a balanced diet or medical care.
