PureDefense w/NAC – 120 caps (out of stock)

Supports first-line immune defense and overall immune health
Provides support for upper respiratory tract health
Promotes antioxidant protection

Natural killer cells are part of the body’s innate, or first-line, immune response. They respond more quickly than the adaptive immune system comprised of B cells and T cells. Once activated, natural killer cell activity peaks in as quickly as several hours, providing rapid support and wide range immune defense. EpiCor® is a fermentation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing various bio-active metabolites. These nutrient metabolites are produced in a specialized fermentation process and enhance immune cell production. In one cellular study, EpiCor® promoted natural killer cell activation, as well as that of B cells and T cells.
In two randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trials, EpiCor® provided statistically significant support for upper respiratory tract health and overall immune health.   A separate open label, in-house trial indicated a strong potential for EpiCor® supplementation to enhance secretory IgA levels after 30 days.

These various actions demonstrate the ability of EpiCor® to address both innate and adaptive immune responses.  NAC (nacetyl-l-cysteine) promotes endogenous glutathione production for antioxidant protection and provides
lung defense mechanisms for healthy respiratory function.
In a randomized, double-blind trial involving mostly older individuals, NAC showed support for respiratory health. Quercetin and elderberry provide flavonoids that offer additional support for immune and respiratory function while
vitamin C, vitamin D and zinc play important roles in immune cell activation.
