| Overview
How do our bodies protect themselves in a world full of harmful organisms? The answer is the immune system, the complex network within our bodies that provides defense at the cellular level against invading organisms.
Our immune system is highly responsive to diet, exercise, and lifestyle. Factors such as sleep deprivation and day-to-day stress can weaken our defenses. Many natural food sources provide substances that can help trigger and strengthen immune activity.
To help support the immune system through supplementation, Immunizen contains cutting-edge ingredients that provide a food source in the intestinal tract for "friendly" bacteria crucial to immune function and support the body's immune cells -- especially macrophages -- in digesting foreign material in the bloodstream.
Macrophage is a type of white blood cell that ingests (takes in) foreign material. It surrounds and kills microorganisms, removes dead cells, and stimulates the action of other immune system cells.
Immunizen's patented form of Intact® colostrum and other ingredients supply key immunoglobulins, antibodies, inhibitors, protein compounds, growth factors, and enzymes. The health benefits of Immunizen include protecting the body with antioxidants and helping the body make better use of iron.
What's inside:
The human immune system relies on cellular organisms, such as T-cells and macrophages, and immunoregulatory chemicals, such as interferon and interleukin. Before pharmaceutical antibiotics in the 1930s and '40s, doctors helped people keep healthy through the use of natural substances that stimulated the body's own defense organisms and chemicals. Many of these substances can be introduced to the body through the diet.
To help support the immune system through supplementation, Immunizen contains arabinogalactan, colostrum, lactoferrin, and 1,3 1,6 beta glucan. These ingredients have a beneficial impact on the health and strength of the body's natural defenses.
Arabinogalactan, a soluble fibre that is one of the most active compounds in echinacea, is a carbohydrate found in various plants.
Intact colostrum is derived from the pre-milk liquid of the bovine mammary gland during the first 24 to 48 hours after giving birth. Our patented, low-heat processing preserves nutrients and active ingredients to provide the highest concentration of fresh proteins, antibodies, and growth factors. Donor cows are raised free of pesticides, hormones, and antibiotics.
Lactoferrin, a protein that supports the immune system, is found in some of the body's most important fluids, such as milk, saliva, tears, mucous, and white blood cells.
1,3 1,6 beta glucan is a large-chain sugar molecule isolated from the cell walls of baker's yeast, shiitake and maitake mushrooms, and oat and barley bran.
What it will do for you:
Arabinogalactan acts as a food source in the intestinal tract for "friendly" bacteria, which are important for maintaining a healthy immune system. It also aids the body's immune cells, especially macrophages, which digest foreign material in the bloodstream.
Colostrum is known to have key immunoglobulins, antibodies, inhibitors, protein compounds, growth factors, and enzymes.
Lactoferrin acts as an antioxidant, helps the body make better use of iron, and contributes to the body's primary defense system.
The health benefits of 1,3 1,6 beta glucan have been widely studied and acknowledged since the 1950s.
When traveling to a foreign land, working in an environment where air is recycled, or during the cold and flu season, take Immunizen to boost your defenses.
