|
|
Regenerin™ Surgical Support is an
intensive, two-step nutraceutical regimen recommended to
assist patient recovery after a surgical procedure.
Regenerin™ Pre-Operative nutrient supplement packets are
used prior to surgery to build nutritional reserves and
prepare the body for surgery. Regenerin™ Post-Operative
nutrient supplement packets are used after surgery to
enhance the body’s natural healing process and support
immune responsiveness, thus helping to speed recovery and
promote proper tissue repair.
Poor nutritional status is associated with slower
post-surgical healing and increased complications. Higher
risk for infection, prolonged swelling, excessive
scarring, and unstable collagen formation can result when
cells are not adequately nourished. Micronutrients
provided by Regenerin™ augment tissue reserves to
protect cells against oxidative damage, enhance collagen
synthesis, regulate inflammatory responses, and encourage
repair of the body’s DNA and affected tissues. Regenerin™
Pre-Operative is intended for use 7 days prior to surgery
followed by Regenerin™ Post-Operative for 30 days after
surgery to help ensure a more successful surgical outcome.
Regenerin™ is specifically formulated to avoid certain
nutrients contraindicated before surgery and to include
nutrients that can be safely taken after surgery. It is
appropriate for both men and women of all ages.
Each Regenerin™ box contains: Pre-Operative Formula, 7
packets per box, containing 3 tablets and 1 capsule per
packet; and Post-Operative Formula, 60 packets per box,
containing 3 tablets and 3 capsules per packet. Includes
small travel bag for holding several packets when away
from home.
CONTAINS CRUCIAL HEALING ACTIVATORS:
• Antioxidants: L-glutathione, N-acetyl-L-cysteine,
taurine, and vitamin C counteract tissue-damaging free
radical molecules generated during stressful situations.
• B-Vitamins: Complete, high-potency B-complex. Supports
proper protein metabolism and cellular energy production,
crucial for healthy tissue repair and efficient cellular
function.
• Vitamin C Ester: Non-acidic vitamin C. Helps
strengthen collagen, support wound healing, and enhance
immune system defenses.
• Bioflavonoids: Quercetin, rutin, and other plant
flavonoids help protect capillaries against damage,
strengthen tissues, and minimize bruising.
• Fatty Acids: Omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids from fish
oil help regulate inflammatory responses, support immune
function, and protect tissues.
• Vitamins and Minerals: A full-spectrum of essential
vitamins, minerals, and trace elements activate numerous
enzyme systems that support healing.
• Enzymes: Protein-specific enzymes such as bromelain
and papain assist the body’s natural ability to control
inflammation and swelling.
• Amino Acids: Certain amino acids, especially L-arginine,
are crucial for healthy tissue formation during healing.
Suggested Use:
Pre-Operative Formula: Begin one week before surgery.
Take the entire contents of one packet daily with a meal.
Each packet contains 3 tablets and 1 capsule. The last
packet should be consumed the day before surgery.
Post-Operative Formula: Begin the day after surgery. Take
the entire contents of one packet twice daily with meals.
Each packet contains 3 tablets and 3 capsules. Continue
taking 2 packets daily for a full 30 days.
Each Pre-Operative Packet Contains:
(2) VitaPrime™
tablets
Compared to common, over-the-counter multivitamin products
delivered in one tablet daily, VitaPrime™ offers enhanced antioxidant
protection, broader trace element nutrition, and augmented B-vitamin
support. This core foundation of essential nutrients thus provides an extra
measure of nutritional protection that can be recommended for daily use. A
clear, water-soluble cellulose coating protects the stability of the
nutritional ingredients and makes the tablets easy to swallow. Each batch is
tested using USP protocols to ensure tablet disintegration time of 45
minutes or less to help maximize nutrient bioavailability.

(1) Zinc
Chelate tablet
A patented process completely bonds zinc to the amino acid
glycine, forming zinc glycinate, a well-absorbed form of
this essential mineral. Supplies 20 mg elemental zinc per
tablet as zinc amino acid chelate.
|
|
|
|
|
(1) Ester-C®
Bio capsule
Ester-C® is a non-acidic form of
vitamin C created by a unique process resulting in a
patented mixture of calcium ascorbate and vitamin C
metabolites. A combination of different bioflavonoids
complements the action of the Ester-C® calcium ascorbate in
this formula.
|
|
|
|
|
Each Post-Operative Packet Contains:
(2) Quercetin/Bromelain
Forte™ tablets
Quercetin-Bromelain Forté™
provides a mixture of proteolytic enzymes and specific
bioflavonoids that help regulate the immune response during
inflammation as may occur during exposure to allergenic
substances or irritants. Quercetin is a potent bioflavonoid
compound that protects cells and tissues against free radical
damage. Bromelain, papain, and pancreatin provide a mixture of
protein-specific and other enzymes that help ensure proper
breakdown of protein molecules that may otherwise cause tissue
irritation and allergic responses.

(1) Marine
Fish Oil softgel capsule
Omega-3 EPA and DHA fatty acids found
in cold water marine fish support many physiological processes
related to immune function, regulation of inflammation,
lipoprotein metabolism, and brain function. Our fish oil
concentrate is molecularly distilled to heavy metals,
pesticides, PCB’s, and other contaminants. Our
specifications are in full compliance with voluntary industry
guidelines. The milligrams of EPA and DHA as labeled are based
on the actual content per gram of oil in the capsule, not as a
portion of the omega-3 content only which would result in a
higher value. Thus, our calculation reflects the true
“elemental” EPA/DHA content. Addition of mixed vitamin E
tocopherols maintains oil freshness by retarding oxidation of
lipid contents. Cholesterol-free.
(1) Glutathiol™
capsule
Glutathiol™ provides three natural sulfur-containing compounds
important to the body's antioxidant defense mechanisms.
N-acetyl-L-cysteine is a valuable precursor for intracellular
glutathione production. L-glutathione, a tripeptide containing
L-cysteine, L-glutamic acid, and glycine, provides
extracellular antioxidant action. The amino acid taurine is a
cell membrane stabilizer found in high amounts in heart,
skeletal muscle, brain, and retina.
|
|
|
(1)
L-Arginine
capsule
Increased demands for arginine, a
conditionally-essential amino acid can occur during physical
stress or illness. Arginine supports growth hormone
metabolism, tissue repair, energy metabolism, and nitric oxide
synthesis. Nitric oxide plays important roles in
cardiovascular, immune, and nervous system functions and is
produced in all tissues of the body. L-arginine in its stable
hydrochloride form is provided in vegetarian capsules.
|
|
|
|
|
(1)
VitaPrime™
tablet
This moderate potency multiple is provided in just two tablets
daily for patients who cannot or are reluctant to take the
recommended six daily tablets or capsules of our more
comprehensive MultiThera™ multiple vitamin/mineral formulas.
VitaPrime™ uses similar nutrient sources as MultiThera™
formulas to maintain efficient bioavailability, but contains
reduced amounts of calcium and magnesium and several other
nutrients. Compared to common, over-the-counter multivitamin
products delivered in one tablet daily, VitaPrime™ offers
enhanced antioxidant protection, broader trace element
nutrition, and augmented B-vitamin support. This core
foundation of essential nutrients thus provides an extra
measure of nutritional protection that can be recommended for
daily use. A clear, water-soluble cellulose coating protects
the stability of the nutritional ingredients and makes the
tablets easy to swallow. Each batch is tested using USP
protocols to ensure tablet disintegration time of 45 minutes
or less to help maximize nutrient bioavailability.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is
Regenerin™?
Regenerin™
is a nutritional support program created specifically for patients scheduled
for a surgical procedure. Prior to surgery, a combination of vitamins and
minerals are taken for 7 days to build up reserves needed for tissue
healing. After surgery, specific amino acids, enzymes, and fatty acids that
assist healing and promote recovery are added to the program and continued
for 30 days.
What does
Regenerin™ contain?
The Regenerin™ Pre-Operative formula provides a broad array of
essential vitamins, minerals, and trace elements in readily absorbable, well
-tolerated forms. A total of 3 tablets and 1 capsule are taken once daily
for seven days prior to surgery. The Regenerin™ Post-Operative formula
contains a higher potency mixture of essential vitamins, minerals, and trace
elements along with L-arginine to promote healthy tissue formation,
bromelain and other enzymes to help calm inflammation, omega-3 fatty acids
to assist immune responses; and selected antioxidants such as L-glutathione
and quercetin to protect against free radical damage. A total of 3 tablets
and 3 capsules are taken twice daily for one month following surgery.
How do
patients distinguish between the Pre-Operative and Post-Operative nutrients?
Regenerin™
nutrients are supplied in convenient cellophane packets that are clearly
imprinted with the name Regenerin™ Pre-Operative and Regenerin™
Post-Operative. The packets are packaged together in a single box separated
by a divider. An instruction card is also provided.
Will
patients be confused about which packet to take after surgery?
No, since
all 7 Pre-Operative packets are taken prior to surgery, the Post-Operative
packets will be the only ones remaining in the box after surgery.
What if the
patient schedules surgery within less than 7 days?
The
Pre-Operative formula is designed so that patients eager to proceed with
surgery may safely take up to two packets daily if needed for fewer than 7
days.
When can
patients begin taking the Post-Operative formula?
The
Post-Operative formula can be started as soon as after 24 hours
post-surgery. If patients are unable to begin taking the formula for several
days, they should begin as soon as they are comfortable swallowing the
pills.
Is vitamin
E safe for surgery patients to take?
The
often-repeated caution about avoiding vitamin E supplements before surgery
is an unfortunate misinterpretation of the published literature. Although
vitamin E has been presumed to prolong coagulation times because it can
inhibit platelet reactivity in a “test-tube” situation, there are no
reports of adverse effects of vitamin E supplementation on platelet function
or coagulation in amounts as high as 1,000 I.U. per day in healthy human
subjects. Other studies have shown amounts ranging form 800 to 1,200 I.U.
did not adversely affect prothrombin times in patients on anticoagulant (warfarin)
therapy (Am J Cardiol 1996;77:545-546). The amount of vitamin E contained in
Regenerin Pre-Operative (150 I.U.) presents no risk to surgical patients,
and in fact will help build crucial antioxidant reserves.
Can
patients also take homeopathic Arnica™?
Yes, the
nutritional regimen supplied by Regenerin™ is compatible with taking
Arnica if desired.
What
scientific documentation supports the benefits of nutrients and healing?
A
significant body of scientific literature describes the actions of various
nutrients on wound healing, immune regulation, inflammatory modulation, and
antioxidant-based tissue protection. This documentation is summarized in the
Regenerin™ Product Monograph and Technical Abstracts that are available on
request.
What
information is available to explain the regimen to patients?
In addition
to the complete dosage instructions and product description provided on the
box, informative patient brochures are available for display in your office.
These tri-fold brochures are provided free-of-charge to ProThera clients.
How do I
get started using the Regenerin program?
Simply call
or visit our office to begin the program.
How
much does the program cost?
$100
for the entire perioperative program
Should
patients continue to take supplements after they complete Regenerin™?
Healing
continues to occur for several months post-surgery. Thus, ensuring adequate
nutrition is advisable. For maximum, ongoing promotion of health, a
well-balanced daily vitamin is recommended.
To purchase Regenerin or if you have further questions,
please stop by our office or call 954-630-2009.
