UltraSorb (25 g) – Highly effective sorbent based on silicon dioxide
UltraSorb is a modern , latest-generation enterosorbent whose active ingredient is highly dispersed silicon dioxide (silica) . It is a light, white, tasteless, odorless powder with exceptional sorption capacity.
Key advantages of UltraSorb over other sorbents
- High sorption capacity and speed of action:
- Silicon dioxide has a huge specific surface area (up to 300-400 m²/g). One teaspoon of powder has an absorbent surface area comparable to a football field. This allows it to bind and remove 3-5 times more toxins per unit mass than traditional sorbents (such as activated carbon).
- It begins to work immediately upon contact with the contents of the gastrointestinal tract, which is critically important in acute conditions (poisoning, diarrhea).
- Selectivity and safety:
- It has a selective effect . It primarily binds medium-molecular toxic substances, bacterial endotoxins, allergens, and alcohol breakdown products, without interfering with the absorption of most vitamins, microelements, and beneficial microflora. This is a key difference from non-selective sorbents.
- It does not damage the mucous membrane of the stomach and intestines , as it consists of tiny smooth, round particles (unlike fibrous or carbon sorbents).
- Versatility and complex action:
- It doesn’t just “take” toxins, but forms them into dense conglomerates , preventing the reabsorption of poisons in the intestines.
- Creates a protective sorption layer on the surface of the mucous membrane , which prevents the penetration of new pathogens and toxins.
- Helps restore normal intestinal motility.
- Ease of use and neutrality:
- It comes in powder form , which mixes easily with water to form a neutral, tasteless, and odorless suspension. This is especially important for children.
- It does not cause constipation (unlike some clay sorbents), and when taken in the correct dosage with sufficient water, it helps normalize bowel movements.
- Economical consumption due to high activity.
Comparison with other sorbents:
Characteristic | UltraSorb (silicon dioxide) | Activated carbon | Lignins | Smectites |
Sorption capacity | Very high (up to 400 m²/g) | Low | Average | Average |
Speed of action | Instant | Slow (the tablets must dissolve) | Average | Average |
Selectivity | High (selective) | No (absorbs everything) | Moderate | Moderate |
Effect on vitamins | Minimum | Removes vitamins and nutrients | Removes some of the nutrients | Weak |
Safe for mucous membranes | High (smooth particles) | Low (abrasive particles) | Average | High |
Child-friendly | Excellent (tasteless powder) | Bad (black color, difficult to give) | Average (granules/paste may not be to your liking) | Good (pleasant taste, but can be astringent) |
The most important advantage: Suitable for children from 3 years of age
UltraSorb has a favorable safety profile, which is confirmed by research and allows its use in pediatric practice, starting from the age of 3.
Why this is important for children:
- High effectiveness in a small dose: Children don’t need to drink a large amount of suspension or take several tablets. A small amount of powder effectively combats intoxication.
- Minimizing the risk of nutrient deficiency: Children’s bodies are particularly sensitive to vitamin and mineral loss. UltraSorb’s selectivity protects against this.
- Neutral taste and ease of administration: A tasteless suspension of powder and water is much easier to give to a small child than bitter tablets or unpleasant-tasting pastes.
- Safe for delicate mucous membranes: Smooth silicon dioxide particles do not damage the mucous membrane of the child’s gastrointestinal tract.
Main indications for use in children over 3 years of age and adults:
- Food poisoning, acute intestinal infections (in complex therapy).
- Diarrheal syndrome of various origins.
- Allergic diseases (food allergies, atopic dermatitis) to remove allergens.
- Intestinal dysbacteriosis (to reduce toxin levels).
- Complex treatment of acute respiratory viral infections and influenza (detoxification).
- Prevention for workers in hazardous industries and residents of ecologically disadvantaged areas.
Release form: 25 g jar. This amount is sufficient for a full course of treatment for an acute condition in one person.
Conclusion: UltraSorb, based on silicon dioxide , is a modern, effective, and safe choice for quickly removing toxins from the body. Its high selectivity, powerful absorption capacity, and suitability for use in children aged 3 and up make it a preferred first aid product in any family’s medicine cabinet.
