Description

Zetpil™ Cream Advantage

Zetpil™ delivers nutrition through the skin with the use of deep-penetrating, ultra-absorbable creams that have a unique, proprietary formulated base that has revolutionized not only this mode of delivery, but also the ability to obtain nutrients in a far more efficacious method.  These creams are a result of combining natural ingredients with a non-irritating, rapidly absorbable, antioxidant base material and delivering the nutrients directly into the bloodstream in less than 10 minutes in a highly effective manner. Oral supplements are exposed to the hazards of stomach acid, digestive enzymes, food-related breakdown, first pass metabolism, and other bioavailability issues in the gastro-intestinal system.

Additionally, many raw materials simply have a very low bioavailability , and only achieve around 10% or less absorption rates, even if the patient is in optimal health condition. Compromised health, age, or certain conditions that result in an inability to take oral nutrients often preclude these patient populations from obtaining the necessary nutrition to stay healthy which often exacerbates chronic health issues. 

Zetpil™ deep penetrating creams, are a NOW solution to delivering the necessary nutrients to patients, on a daily basis, that is both easy and cost effective.

What is N-Acetyl-Cysteine?

N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC) is a precursor to the amino acid cysteine. NAC’s beneficial actions are the result of increasing our body’s own glutathione production as well as participating in general antioxidant activities in the body (ie: free radical scavenger). However, there is a catch!

N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC) is a powerful antioxidant and free radical scavenger, but it is only 4% orally bioavailable. Zetpil™ NAC deep penetrating cream is 20 times more powerful than oral supplementation. This alternate mode of delivery may overcome the low oral bioavailability issues with NAC and allow the health-conscious consumer to achieve higher dosages and benefit from its antioxidant properties.  Clinical Applications of N-acetylcysteine – Alternative …

Important note to patients who have frequent MRIs: The commonly used MRI contrast agent gadolinium has been shown to build up in the body causing significant damage including renal (kidney) dysfunction. NAC has been proven to be advantageous both prior to and following MRI procedures using contrast agentshttp://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3967529/
