Why Should I Supplement With Uric Acid Control?

Customer: I was raised as a real meat and potatoes kind of guy. But as I matured, my doctor suggested that it might not be the best diet for me. After a blood test, he said, my uric acid levels are in the normal range, but I need to keep those levels in check. Besides changing what I eat, is there anything else I can do that would help?

Michael A. Smith, MD: A diet rich in fruits, grains and vegetables is a great start for maintaining a healthy uric acid level. But recent research has shown that a standardized extract of the Terminalia bellirica tree can also help maintain healthy uric acid levels. Based on the positive results of these studies, we've added this patent-pending, tannin-rich extract to our Uric Acid Control formula.

Customer: I can't believe all the research that goes into developing Life Extension nutritional supplements. It's really incredible.

Michael A. Smith, MD: And speaking of research, Terminalia bellirica extract has also shown to support a healthy inflammatory response.

Customer: I'm going to continue watching my weight by eating healthy, but it's nice to know that my uric acid levels aren't going to hold me back.
