Why Juven®?
A proper diet is essential for tissue building for all stages of wound healing, but sometimes the normal diet is not enough. Juven may help by providing essential nutrients, such as arginine and glutamine, that are needed for wound healing. Juven has been clinically shown to support wound healing by enhancing collagen formation in as little as 2 weeks.1,2,* After 2 weeks, Juven resulted in a 67% increase in hydroxyproline at the wound site, a marker of collagen production, which is critical for the wound healing process.*
Nutrition for Wound Healing
Juven is targeted nutrition therapy to support wound healing in patients with inadequate nutrition stores, such as those with:
Diabetic Wounds
(like foot ulcers)
Surgical Wounds
Burns
Pressure Injuries
The Power of Nutrition Therapy
Juven is targeted nutrition that helps the body build new tissue when you need it most—after injury and surgery. Juven helps replenish the critical nutrients needed for wound healing, including:
Arginine
An amino acid that promotes blood flow and is a building block for proteins, which can contribute to wound healing
Collagen Protein
A type of protein that stimulates internal collagen production
Glutamine
An amino acid that helps cells produce the building blocks needed for new tissue
Micronutrients
Vitamins C, E, B12, and zinc are important nutrients for the wound healing process
HMB
A leucine metabolite that may protect muscle cells and preserve and maintain muscle tissue

2 Per Day to Support Wound Healing
Juven provides conditionally essential nutrients to support wound healing by enhancing collagen production. The patients in the following examples consumed 2 servings of Juven per day. Unless otherwise noted, Juven was used as part of a standard wound care program. Individual results may vary depending on the type and severity of the wound.
Facial burn before the use of Juven
Facial burn after using Juven 2X PER DAY for 8 weeks
This patient was transferred to a care facility with significant facial burns after an accident. In addition to conventional burn wound care dressings, his doctor placed him on a nutritional supplementation protocol which included Juven. The doctor noted significant improvement in his wounds over the following weeks after starting the Juven supplementation compared to the previous period.
Mohs surgical suture before the use of Juven
Mohs surgical suture after using Juven 2X PER DAY for 14 days
Nonhealing ulcer on the heel of the foot before the use of Juven
Nonhealing ulcer on the heel of the foot after using Juven 2X PER DAY for 49 days
A patient with diabetes who had a plantar foot ulcer. When progress became minimal and slow, Juven was added to the patient's wound care plan.
Juven was in addition to a standard wound care program, unless otherwise noted. Sacral pressure ulcer regimen over the past 30 days has included antibiotics, serial wound debridement, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, topical wound bed cleanser, daily multivitamin, and Juven* supplements twice daily. Over a 30 day period, the size of the wound decreased significantly. Juven can be an important part of nutrition support in a multimodal wound care program.

Use Juven under medical supervision.
With 2 per day, the nutrients in Juven can support wound healing from the inside out.
