Description
Progressive Health's Monoplex is an all-natural formula designed to soothe the pain and tenderness of canker sores and prevent future outbreaks. Its clinically studied nutrients include lysine, DGL (deglycyrrhizinated licorice), glutamine and essential vitamins and minerals. Canker sores are common mouth ulcers that may be linked to low immunity and nutritional deficiencies.
Monoplex works to effectively relieve painful canker sores, prevent flare-ups and promote natural healing.
Lysine, DGL and glutamine can prevent outbreaks and promote natural healing of canker sores. Clinical research suggests that the amino acid lysine may be effective in treating recurrent canker sores, in addition to being a well-known anti-herpes nutrient. DGL is also commonly used to treat herpes sores and can promote healing of canker sores. One clinical study reported that 75% of patients treated with DGL had a 50 to 75% improvement of canker sores within one day. The conditionally essential amino acid glutamine promotes immunity and heals mouth ulcerations.
Research suggests that people who are deficient in B vitamins, iron, zinc and vitamin C are more prone to canker sore outbreaks. Supplementation with these vitamins and minerals can promote immune function, help prevent canker sores and support healing.
