Uses For PureDefense chewables
Immune Defense: PureDefense chewables are a comprehensive
blend of nutrients and herbal extracts designed to support immune
function in a convenient, great-tasting, chewable tablet. EpiCorŪ
saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentate contains numerous immune
enhancing bioactive metabolites designed to support both innate
and adaptive immune response. Research suggests that it enhances
natural killer cell activation, B cell and T cell function, and secretory
IgA levels. In two randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled
trials, EpiCorŪ provided statistically significant support for upper
respiratory tract health and overall immune health. In another
trial, EpiCorŪ helped maintain a healthy immune response to
environmental factors. Elderberry extract provides powerful immune
enhancing anthocyanins, flavonoids and other polyphenols. Studies
have shown statistically significant immune support in all ages.
Quercetin maintains healthy histamine production by supporting
healthy enzyme activity. Zinc and vitamin C, provided as the nonacidic
enhanced retention Ester-CŪ, help boost immune defense by
supporting immune cell proliferation, activation and function, as well
as healthy antioxidant enzyme function.*
What Is The Source?
Ascorbic acid and citrate are derived from corn dextrose fermentation.
Minerals are derived from elemental ore. Quercetin is derived from
the Fava danta tree (Dimorphandra mollis) pods. EpicorŪ dried yeast
fermentate complex is derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Elderberry extract is derived from Sambucus nigra fruit. Xylitol
is derived from corn cob and purified to be free of corn protein.
Cellulose is derived from pine. Lo Han is derived from Momordica
grosvenori fruit extract. Natural cherry flavor is derived from fruit
and contains maltodextrin derived from corn.
Are There Any Potential Side Effects Or
Precautions?
Zinc can cause a metallic taste in some individuals. There have
been rare reports of quercetin causing headache or tingling in
extremities. If you are pregnant or lactating, have any health condition or are taking any medications, particularly immunosuppressants, consult your health professional before use..
Are There Any Potential Drug Interactions?
Zinc may be contraindicated with certain antibiotics. Elderberry
may be contraindicated for individuals on immunosuppressant
medications. Preliminary evidence suggests that quercetin may
inhibit the metabolism of medications through the cytochrome
pathways in the liver. Consult your physician for more information.
