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.
Directions:
