Immune System Support MaX VRL™ Available in 60 vegetarian capsules Detailed Description The immune system defends the body against unfriendly microorganisms. The active “soldiers” that maintain immune system activity include specialized white blood cells, lymphocytes, phagocytes, killer T-cells, antibodies, interferon, and lactoferrin. The first barrier against unfriendly invasions is the skin. Mucus secretions, including tears, gastric acid secretions, and saliva from the parotid gland, are part of this first line of defense as well. There are two types of immunity. Innate immunity is the resistance we are born with, and adaptive immunity is the immunity that we acquire naturally when we are exposed to infective viruses, bacteria, other microorganisms, and toxins, or when we are artificially vaccinated. Antibodies retain long-term memories of invaders they have faced; so, for instance, a person is likely to have the mumps only one time. Dietary and lifestyle habits can have either negative or positive impacts on immune function. For example, refined sugar may interfere with white blood cells’ ability to destroy unfriendly bacteria.[1] Alcohol is reported to weaken a wide variety of immune responses.[2] Pang suggests that determining food allergies and omitting the offenders may be more helpful in resolving ear infections than conventional antibiotic treatment.[3] Excessive intake of unhealthy dietary fats has been reported to suppress natural killer T-cell activity.[4] In addition, immune system activity may be depressed by stress, overwork, faulty sleeping, and the aging process. On the other hand, there are many lifestyle changes and dietary changes that can enhance immune function. For example, exercise can increase natural killer T-cell activity.[5] Many vitamins, minerals, and herbs can support immune health and the numerous processes that help prevent cell damage and faulty replication. *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. The integrity and structure of the immune system depend upon nutrients and nutrient sufficiency. Adequate intake of micronutrients supports not only the innate immunity that we are born with but also the immune cell and antibody response that is mounted in the face of acute challenges. Several nutrients, including vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc, and selenium, work synergistically to support immune cell production and activity. Vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, and zinc assist in maintaining two important protective barriers: the skin and mucosa.[6] MaX VRL™ provides nutrients that support immune system integrity. They are vitamins A, C, and D3; TRAACS® (the real amino acid chelate system) zinc, a patented mineral amino acid chelate; and chelated selenium. Supportive herbs include echinacea, olive leaf, astragalus, elder flower, elderberry extract, and goldenseal. Glycerol monolaurate, beta-glucan, and lysine are present for additional support.* XYMOGEN® Exclusive Professional Formulas 800-647-6100 | www.xymogen.com Immune System Support MaX VRL™ Supplement Facts References Serving Size: 1 Capsule Vitamin A (43% as retinyl palmitate and 57% as beta-carotene) Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) Zinc (as TRAACS® zinc bisglycinate chelate) Selenium (as Albion® selenium glycinate complex) L-Lysine (as L-lysine HCI) Echinacea pupurea (root) Olive (Olea europaea)(leaf) Astragalus (Astragulus membranaceus)(root) Elder (Sambucus nigra)(flower) Glycerol Monolaurate Elder Berry Extract (Sambucus nigra)(fruit)(30% anthocyanidins) Goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis)(root) Olive Extract (Olea europaea)(leaf)(18% oleuropein) Whole Glucan Particle (Beta-Glucan naturally derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae) ** Daily Value (DV) not established.
