We are constantly challenged by a barrage of immune-damaging factors. Supporting and activating the body's natural immune response has never been more important. Cellular theory and Immune research has developed specific methods of strengthening Immune response.
Immune Enhancing Discoveries
Yeast
In the 1940's it was discovered that yeast enhanced resistance to disease. In the 1980's researchers found that Beta Glucans in yeast were a 'broad spectrum enhancer of host defense mechanisms' that activated the body's immune response.
Mushroom Extract
In the 1980's, Dr. Hiroaki Nanba, a Japanese microbiologist, discovered an exceptional mushroom extract. Dr. Nanba's discovery, now known as MaitakeGold 404® Patented Mushroom Extract, is a powerful active Beta Glucan as well. Dr. Nanba's research reveals that the active constituents found in MaitakeGold 404® are a breakthrough in nutritional support for immune function. MaitakeGold 404® Beta 1,6/1,3 Glucans demonstrate superior immune activity when compared to other mushrooms. The key to MaitakeGold 404's strength lies in the long chain Beta Glucan structures with maximum branching chains. Of all the known medicinal mushrooms, Maitake has demonstrated the highest level of bioavailability when taken orally.
Beta Glucans and Specific Response®
Beta Glucans are polysaccharide molecules. The most active of these molecules naturally occur in mushrooms and yeast. Research indicates that the Beta Glucans in mushrooms and yeast modulate the immune system. There are specific receptors for Beta Glucans on the surface of certain cells called macrophage. When activated, they stimulate a cascade of events turning the cells into an arsenal of immune defense. The actions created by these Beta Glucans is known as Specific Response®. Specific Response® is intended to support resistance to disease, physiological challenges and enhance longevity.*
The Importance of Maximum Branching
Beta Glucan research indicates that the degree of branching in Beta 1,3/1,6 and Beta 1,6/1,3 Glucans determines immune activity levels. Immune Strength® is formulated to provide maximum branching. The union of the two unique forms of Beta Glucans, 1,6/1,3 from MaitakeGold 404® and 1,3/1,6 from Cold Fusion™ FoodState® Yeast, Saccromyces cerevisiae, create an active synergy for Immune Strength®.
Cold Fusion™ FoodState® Vitamin C
Cold Fusion™ FoodState® Vitamin C works with the body to break apart the beneficial polysaccharides. This process enhances maximum branching and increases bioavailability and accessibility to the immune cells. Immune Strength® is Driven by Food™ and will provide a strengthening action or effect. Please see the Immune Strength® Information Quickie for more information on this formula.
