Show Highlights & Big Takeaways
1. Citrus Pectin & Inflammation: Citrus pectin may help support healthy inflammation and tissue balance by binding to galectin-3, a protein linked to fibrosis, chronic inflammation, and cellular clumping. For a small subset of people, it can also support gentle detoxification, including heavy metals, when used strategically and away from meals.
2. Black Currants & Bone Density: Research suggests black currant supplementation may help slow age-related bone loss, particularly in peri- and postmenopausal women. Its rich polyphenol content appears to reduce markers of bone breakdown while supporting a gut microbiome environment that favors better bone metabolism.
3. Shin Pain & Vitamin D: Persistent tenderness or deep pain along the shin bone can be a late-stage sign of low vitamin D and reduced bone mineralization. While not a diagnostic tool on its own, this symptom can signal the need for proper vitamin D testing and earlier intervention to protect long-term bone health.
