Immune Nutrition™

Serving size= 1 Capsule (500mg)

Servings per container= 30

 

Suggested Use:

Take one to eight capsules daily away from food or as directed by a healthcare professional.

 

"A cap a day keeps the doctor away, 2-4 will help you more...but 8 is even more great."

 

More capsules = more nutrition for your immune system. 

 

1 cap- I'm feeling great and I want to stay this way!

 

4 caps- I could feel better

 

8 caps- I don't feel well, and I'm ready to turn things around! 

After years of research, studies have shown that beta glucans act as immunomodulator agents, meaning they trigger a cascade of events that help regulate the immune system, making it more efficient. Specifically, beta glucans stimulate the activity of macrophages, which are versatile immune cells that ingest and demolish invading pathogens and stimulate other immune cells to attack. Macrophages also release cytokines, chemicals that when secreted enable the immune cells to communicate with one another. In addition, beta glucans stimulate lethal white blood cells (lymphocytes) that bind to tumors or viruses, and release chemicals to destroy it.

 

Beta Glucans Found In Immune Nutrition:

• 95% 1,3 Beta Glucan from Euglena gracilis
• 85% 1,3 Beta Glucan from proprietary fermentation process
• Maitake MD-Fraction 

Polysaccharide immunomodulators were first discovered over 40 years ago. Recent reports have revealed the mechanism of action and structure-function attributes of some of these molecules. Certain polysaccharide immunomodulators have been identified that have profound effects in the regulation of immune responses during the progression of infectious diseases, and studies have begun to define structural aspects of these molecules that govern their function and interaction with cells of the host immune system.

 

Polysaccharides Found In Immune Nutrition Include:

• Acemannan
• Fucoidan
• Maitake MD-Fraction
• 95% 1,3 Beta Glucan (algae)
• 85% 1,3 Beta Glucan (fermentation)
• 50% 1,3 Beta Glucan (algae)

Science has long ago proven that our bodies need proteins, fatty acids, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients and enzymes for optimal health. Science has now proven that there are a number of biological sugars (monosaccharides) which are necessary for all cellular and immune functions, enabling the body to maintain health. These essential saccharides make up the “alphabetic code” that our cells use to communicate with each other.

 

Cell-Cell Communication:
There are approximately 200 monosaccharides found in nature. Eight of these are known to be essential components of cell-surface glycoforms used in cell-cell communication. Glycoproteins on the surface of every
cell serve as signals to tell other cells who they are and what they need. If the cells do not have enough of the right essential saccharides, they cannot make the correct glycoproteins, and the cell-to- cell messages become disrupted. Subsequently, the immune system cannot effectively wage an offensive against intruders or imbalances.

 

Importance of Essential Saccharides:
Without adequate amounts of these essential saccharides the human body cannot function properly. In a perfect world our bodies would easily take glucose and convert it into all the other essential saccharides by glycosylation. Unfortunately, it is often very difficult for the body to synthesize adequate amounts of the missing saccharides. It takes an enormous amount of energy, up to 37 enzymatic steps, to synthesize these monosaccharides and things like stress, poor nutrition, toxins, or lack of sleep inhibit the process. Effectively supplementing with essential saccharides takes the burden off of our over- stressed bodies and supports cellular-communication networks resulting in overall better function.

 

Essential Saccharides Found In Immune Nutrition:

• N-Acetylneuraminic Acid
• N-Acetylgalactosamine
• N-Acetylglucosamine
• Mannose
• Xylose
• Galactose
• Fucose
• Glucose

Immune Nutrition contains a broad spectrum of bioavailable vitamins, minerals, amino acids and organic acids. These nutrients are in their naturally occuring forms allowing for maximum abosption and synergy. 

 

Vitamins and Minerals:

Vitamins and minerals are considered essential nutrients—because acting in concert, they perform hundreds of roles in the body. They help shore up bones, heal wounds, and bolster your immune system. They also convert food into energy, and repair cellular damage. Many people are deficient in key vitamins and minerals due to a number of factors including depleted vitamin and mineral levels in the soil resulting in less nutrious food. 

 

Amino Acids:

Amino acids are organic compounds that combine to form proteins. Amino acids and proteins are the building blocks of life. A large proportion of our cells, muscles and tissue is made up of amino acids, meaning they carry out many important bodily functions, such as giving cells their structure. They also play a key role in the transport and the storage of nutrients. Amino acids have an influence on the function of organs, glands, tendons and arteries. They are furthermore essential for healing wounds and repairing tissue, especially in the muscles, bones, skin and hair as well as for the removal of all kinds of waste deposits produced in connection with the metabolism.

 

Organic Acids:

Immune nutrition contains a number of naturally occuring organic acids that have proven to be key nutritents for a number of bodily functions.
