NutriCology ImmunoBiotic Pro Immunobiotic Regulator ImmunoBiotic Pro starts with Lactobacillus rhamnosus originally derived from a Russian fermented dairy source. As international probiotic expert Dr. Gregor Reid, Professor of Microbiology and Immunology at The University of Western Ontario states: “If a person skilled in the art wanted to select a bacterium type that conferred many beneficial effects for humans, he/she would not need to look much further than Lactobacillus rhamnosus. Found naturally in many different foods, including fermented dairy products, this species can be present in the healthy intestine and vagina.” Key Features: May stimulate and support both the innate and adaptive immune system responses Cell wall fragments work quickly to stimulate the immune system Ingredients Serving Size: 3 Vegetarian Capsules Amount/Serving Lactobacillus rhamnosus Lysate Powder 75 mg Other Ingredients: Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, L-leucine. Suggested Use As a dietary supplement, 1 to 3 capsules one or two times daily, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place, tightly capped. Refrigeration not needed. More Info Eastern European folk culture has long regarded cultured milk products as having immune-stimulating properties. Dr. Ivan Bogdanov of Bulgaria found that lactobacilli could effectively stimulate both cellular and humoral immunity (Bogdanov et al. mmunoBiotic Pro Immunobiotic Regulator* 1977), and since then, many lactobacilli and bifido species have demonstrated immune-supporting properties. In fact, some scientists now propose to rename probiotic bacteria as ‘immunobiotics’. In order to allow the immune-active components, which are usually sequestered inside the cells, to have unimpeded access to trigger and magnify the immune system response, the Lactobacillus rhamnosus cells in ImmunoBiotic Pro are lysed (broken apart). The ability of bacterial cell walls from gram positive bacteria to stimulate and strengthen host immunity has been known for many years. Lactobacilli cell walls contain teichoic acids and antigens (which can stimulate antibodies).
