If you think you aren’t getting enough Iron, or are getting too much Iron, please consult your doctor. |

New Enhanced Formula of XFactor+
XFactor+ has a new enhanced formula. At Plexus, we aim to provide the highest-quality products with powerful key ingredients in the most efficacious amounts.
Why there was a change: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration required updates to ALL Food, Beverage, and Supplement Facts Panels based on updated scientific information, and new nutrition and public health research.
What has changed: We adjusted the level of nutrients in XFactor+ to align with the updated Daily Value Percent recommendation. It is still the product you know and love, but with updated nutrient amounts. The enhanced formula still delivers 100% or more of the Daily Value of 19 essential vitamins and minerals, including all 8 essential B Vitamins, naturally occurring trace minerals, and our proprietary Microbiome Activating Complex, and now it has more Aloe Vera.
Reason for Addition of Aloe Vera: Aloe Vera is a superfood that contains antioxidants and polyphenols. The Aloe Vera in XFactor+ comes from the inner leaf fillet. This source contains bioactive polysaccharides, called Acemannan, which help enhance the absorption of certain micronutrients.
Clinical Study for XFactor+
A clinical study was done on XFactor+. We wanted to see what it can really do, so we put it through rigorous, testing procedures.
In a highly advanced, preliminary in vitro study created to mimic the human gastrointestinal system, XFactor+ powerful Microbiome Activating Complex was tested, which produced astounding results. The research found:
- Reduced production of undesirable compounds in the gut◊ *
- Reduced ammonium levels in the gut up to 18%◊ *
- Increased beneficial Lactobacillus up to 15x◊ *
- Increased beneficial Akkermansia up to 9x◊ *
- Increased beneficial Bifidobacterium up to 2x◊ *
