Description

The Zetpil™ Suppository Format

Zetpil™ offers amino acids in a suppository format as an alternative to traditional oral nutritional supplements. Each suppository is formulated with a proprietary base designed to melt after insertion and provide a convenient, non-oral method of administration. The suppository format also avoids the need to swallow tablets, capsules, powders or liquids.

Oral supplements can lose effectiveness as they pass through the digestive system due to stomach acid, digestive enzymes, food interactions, first-pass metabolism, and other factors that affect absorption and bioavailability.

Zetpil™ suppositories are designed for convenient at-home use. Always use products as directed and consult a qualified healthcare professional if you have questions about whether a product is appropriate for you.

What Are Amino Acids?

What are Amino Acids and why are they Important?

Amino acids are the building blocks of protein and are essential to maintain adequate muscle mass, energy and strength. Muscle has many vital functions, including temperature regulation, energy metabolism, amino acid reserves, immune function and response to injury.

Some amino acids are classified as essential because the body cannot produce sufficient amounts on its own and they therefore need to be obtained through nutrition.
Zetpil™ Complete Protein Amino Acid Suppositories combine multiple amino acids in a single formula, including the branched-chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine.

Recommended Use

Use 2-3 suppositories per day or as directed by your healthcare professional.

Always use products as directed. However, individual nutritional requirements can vary. Consult your healthcare professional regarding appropriate calcium and magnesium intake for your individual needs and whether this product is appropriate for you.

Storage and Use

This product can often be stored at room temperature from 21°C /70°F to 28°C /82°F. However, to allow for optimal ease of use, it is best to store in a cool place (15°C /59°F to 22°C /72°F), in the refrigerator or freezer prior to use. This is especially important when this product is used as a suppository (See Directions). If the materials in the shell liquefy/melt during shipping, remove the shells from the packaging, shake/agitate the strips and then place in the freezer until the product in the shell hardens (10-15 minutes). Although the re-hardened material in the shell may be slightly misshapen, the softening, shaking and cooling of the suppository in no way alters the effectiveness of the active ingredients or overall product delivery into the body.

For rectal use, clear the bowels before insertion when possible. The suppository may be moistened with cool water or used with a personal lubricant to facilitate insertion.
Follow the package directions for proper use.

Warnings

  • Keep out of reach of children.
  • Consult your healthcare provider before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Consult your healthcare provider before use if you take medications, have a medical condition or have questions about whether this product is appropriate for you.
  • Do not use if you have a known hypersensitivity to phospholipids or any listed ingredient.
  • Do not use if the suppository or packaging is open or damaged.
  • Discontinue use and contact your healthcare provider if you experience an adverse reaction.

Due to the nature of this product, suppositories cannot be returned or exchanged.

If you choose to use this product as a rectal suppository, it is highly recommended you attempt to clear your bowels prior to inserting it to avoid premature evacuation. To facilitate insertion it is recommended you moisten the product by passing it under a stream of cool water or use a personal lubricant. When used as a suppository, this product requires 15-20 minutes retention to ensure the complete absorption of the bioactive ingredients. This suppository can be inserted in any position. Although not required, if inserted while lying on one’s side, consider remaining in the supine position for 1-3 minutes following insertion. (Always insert flat end of suppository first).

Individuals that have chosen to take this product as part of a personal nutrient program have overwhelmingly chosen to utilize this product as a rectal suppository. However, this product can also be taken safely by mouth. If one chooses to take this product orally, then this product may be considered a dietary supplement in accordance with current FDA guidelines.
