Introduction
Philosophical Underpinnings
Nutrition is perhaps the most intimate and important of individual biological experiences. It provides the substrate
from which all anatomy and physiology is derived and is a critical communication between environment and soma.
When food is consumed, the external environment is literally internalized.
In our age of bounty, convenience, and self-indulgence, food is viewed more as recreation than a necessity to life
and health. Most significantly, the intrusion of technology into feeding would lead us to believe that eating is complex
beyond the capabilities of all but credentialed experts.
Nevertheless, this fact remains: With the exception of that infinitesimally small portion occupied by modern humans,
all biota finds nutrition to be no mystery. Life itself would not exist if this were not true. All life, including the most
erudite and technically sophisticated nutritionist, lives because eons of forbearers lived and had health eating what
nature provided without alteration.
So yes, nutrition is important. But no, it is not complicated. (Although what follows may seem to belie this, a
technical explanation is the only means to convince the technically sophisticated that something is, in actual fact, simple.)
All answers to all questions come from nature. Our sciences merely attempt to reveal what is already there. None
of our knowledge is true innovation or creation, it is mere discovery. The answer to the question of what is the
appropriate diet to create and maintain health therefore must lie within nature itself.
Nature reveals three characteristics of proper diet. First, it is archetypal – it is that food to which the organism is
adapted in the wild setting. Second, it is optimal – its quantity and quality are sufficient to meet the biochemical
individuality of the entire diverse population. Third, it is alive – food is by nature comprised of other living elements,
both plant and animal.
The novel nutritional approach embodied in Wysong Rx culminates over 25 years of research to capture these
essential food qualities in a packaged product.
The Archetypal Holistic Paradigm
Health is an emergent holistic quality, a gestalt of genetics and environment. Environmental factors impacting wellbeing include everything from temperature, light, air, altitude and humidity, to symbiotic, parasitic and pathogenic
relationships, to social setting and food.
The genome, on the other hand, determines whether these environmental factors enhance or detract from health. A
fish underwater thrives because water is what the fish genome expects. A human will not survive these same aqueous
circumstances. The converse is true for each if the environment is changed from water to air. The genome does not
adapt to dramatic environmental stress, it succumbs.
In an age where artificiality abounds, it is easy to forget these principles. Humans survive in hostile environs (from
the genome’s perspective) such as space and deep ocean with the aid of wondrous technology. We also survive
deadly northern latitudes in the artificial environments created in dwellings. Animals taken from the wild likewise
survive domestication and caging, something their genomes
did not expect. These apparent triumphs of technology
over genetic constraints lead to the belief that genetic
determinants are ambiguous, that anything is possible given
enough technology. Of course this is not so. Although
environment can modify genetic expression, this only
occurs within defined limits. The more aberrant the

just like a fish out of water or a human submerged. All that
may appear well at the moment is not really so.
With these principles as a backdrop, one can look at
the health-disease-food-genetic linkage and make rational
judgments. What is the proper food context for a given
genome? The answer: what the creature would eat and
digest in the wild. For a cow it is clearly pasture. For the
lion and wolf (cat and dog), prey and a few vegetable

But that’s the short view. Research has shown that
wrong living in youth sets the stage for a variety of serious
degenerative conditions that only emerge in later adulthood.
Cancer, adult onset diabetes, atherosclerosis, obesity,
arthritis, autoimmunities and dental diseases can have
latency periods of decades. The smoldering fire within is
merely masked by the ephemeral vitality of youth.
The modern era, wherein new synthetic processed
foods have become the mainstay, represents but a speck
of biological time on this earth. If the modern, industrial,
processed food era dating back two hundred years is
represented by an inch, the time during which all life
consumed foods exactly as they were found in nature would
be at least 276 miles! (See Figure 2.)

which is the only present option.
“100% completeness” emerges really only as a point
of concern since the food supply has become synthetic
and fractionated. Yes, retorters, extruders, ovens,
dehydrators, freezers, synthetic vitamins and the like are
wondrous inventions. But their necessity is linked primarily
to commercial – not health – interests. They enable the
conversion of indigestible and toxic foods (such as raw
grains and legumes) into edible preparations with increased
shelf life, enabling profitable food distribution. Since such
foods are really experimental, and always accompanied
by continuing nutritional consequences, a huge scientific
industry has become necessary to analyze and test products
in an attempt to fortify them back to their original value.
Nutrigenomic Optimal Nutrition
Scientific advance has confirmed that the relationship
between genotype (health potential) and phenotype (health
realization) is intromitted with critical environmental
modifiers. With respect to the modifier – food – a new
science – nutrigenomics – has emerged. This science
studies the impact single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs
– pronounced snips) and multiple SNPs (Haplotypes) have
on diet, and conversely how diet can modify genetic
expression.
Genetic research has reached a state of precision where
single genes have been identified for production of

hydrogen and oxygen. No scientist has a clue why, when
hydrogen and oxygen combine, a liquid is created that is
“wet” and expands when frozen. Likewise there is not a
clue within the millions of chemical nutrients within food
that would predict holistic qualities such as immune
resistance, longevity, mood or strength.
A thorough analysis of the scientific literature over the
past 25 years has proven these assertions to be
unassailable. Time will only confirm further that to the
degree we remove a creature from its proper environmental
context, including its food, health will be lost proportionately.
It is therefore totally predictable, and increasingly confirmed
in clinical trials and metanalyses, that essentially every health
condition is impacted by nutrition. What’s more, some of
the more enigmatic idiopathic conditions such as
atherosclerosis, cancer, obesity, adult onset diabetes,
digestive disturbances, allergies, autoimmunities, dermal
conditions, pancreatitis and dental disease may not be so
mysterious after all. We need look no further than the
food plate or bowl to find the disease vector in the form of
synthetic and fractionated food components fed
monotonously and relentlessly. All of these degenerative
conditions are nothing more than pleomorphic
manifestations of the same underlying etiology-genetic
discordancy.
Figure 4.
Well over a thousand human disease genes have been
characterized and many of these are monogenic. Examples
include sickle cell anemia (a single amino acid that reduces
hemoglobin’s affinity for oxygen), phenylketonuria (a
mutation in phenylalanine hydroxylase leading to toxic levels
of phenylalanine), hypertension (a variant of the
angiotensinogen gene), cardiovascular disease (AG to A

and vitamin C synthesis, among others), cancer (C667T

and diabetes (Pro 12A1a polymorphism in the peroxisome
proliferator activator receptor). Parallels exist in animals.
This is not to say disease is inevitable, but rather there is a
susceptibility that will only be manifest if the diet is not
matched properly to the genome.
recommendations or “100% complete” standards. A
biochemical flux through a metabolic or signal transduction
pathway is not the same for all. This explains the bell
curve phenomenon and biochemical individuality in
nutrition: why a single defined diet may exceed the needs
of some and be insufficient for others. (See Figure 6.)
On the other hand, dietary factors can directly bind to
receptors and modify gene expression/enzyme synthesis.
Altering the concentration of enzymes (encoded by SNPs)
alters the flux in pathways that in turn impacts physiology.
In other words, genes affect the response to diet, and
diet affects the expression of genes. The system is myriad
feedback loops and holistic – not linear or reductionistic.
(See Figure 5.)
Figure 6. Wysong RL. Rationale for Animal Nutrition. Inquiry Press. 1998. p.18
Biochemical individuality is best addressed by
optimizing the diet. This is a different set point than in
common nutritional practice where isolated nutrients are
tested to determine the levels necessary to prevent overt
deficiency or toxicity. Chronic undernutrition can create
idiosyncratic manifestations far removed in time from that
of a short-term feeding trial. Virtually every modern
chronic degenerative disease has a nutritional etiology,
yet this causation remains totally undiscovered by shortterm, feeding-trial, classical, nutritional research. (See
Figure 7.)

stripped and oxidized in processing is the
answer. Why are omega-3 fatty acids

oxidized foods is the answer. Why do
carnitine, taurine, folate, mineral and
other vitaminic and amino acid deficiencies
occur? The killing and nutrient stripping of
modern foods is the answer.
To be living, it is understood that a food
must be in its holistic state and not heated
much above body temperature (not more
than 118° F). It thus retains its inherent
enzymes intact. A raw apple is better than
pasteurized apple cider. Raw milk is better
than pasteurized homogenized milk. Raw
meat is better than its fried counterpart.

premise, unlike that of industry convention, is that any
formulated processed food is inferior to the natural raw
diet regardless of fortification, analyses or short-term
feeding trials. The manufacturing goal should therefore be
to stretch toward the ideal natural diet rather than rest on
the laurel of “100% completeness.”
Figure 10. Wysong RL. The Creation-Evolution Controversy.
Inquiry Press. 2003. p. 243
Fire accelerates the inevitable increase of entropy, the
loss of order and increase in randomness. How then can
we expect food – that has in essence been turned to ashes
– to create the low entropic ordered state of health?
(Arguments about open and closed systems could be made
by physicists, but for the purpose of this brief, polemic
principles are being highlighted.) Would we not expect a
better result from foods that have retained the low entropy
of their living state and can hope to pass such order on to
the eater? Would we not expect a better result from foods
that have not been rushed along by processing, toward
their lifeless entropic end?
The vitiation of nutritional quality as a result of high
heat processing is only matched by the abundance of toxins
produced. Although high heat processing enables the
creation of an endless variety of food trinkets, permits stable
shelf life, freedom from pathogens, easy distribution and
higher profits for producers, it violates the Law of
Nutribiogenesis. Profits go to the producers, disease goes
to the consumers.
Wysong RX is a significant advance toward the ideal
and incorporates a variety of new technologies to achieve
highly palatable natural nutrition while providing specific
nutraceuticals with proven metabolic effects. The Wysong RX
objective is to reintroduce a pet to its real food, the panoply
of nutrients the genome expects, and shift the balance from
disease and immunological weakness, to robust optimal
health. Innovations include non-heat processing, bacterial
and parasitic control, probiotic, prebiotic (synbiotic) and
enzymatic augmentation, immune enhancement, natural
antioxidant protection and nutraceutical bioactivation.
Meat-Organ-Bone Base
The natural archetypical food of the carnivore is meat,
organs and bones.
This is the predominant base (devoid of grains,
common to virtually all processed pet foods) in Wysong
RX and cannot be surpassed in terms of the essential amino
acid profile and other inherent macronutrient and
micronutrient merits. The unusual palatability speaks to
the animal’s innate sense of nutritional value.
The true challenge in modern food production, if health
is the goal, is fresh untainted food that does not violate the
Law of Nutribiogenesis. That challenge has been met
successfully with Wysong RX.
Wysong RX Technology
For many years Wysong has understood the
seriousness of these fundamental feeding/health issues and
formulated foods based upon the above principles.
Considerable effort has also been expended to educate
pet owners about archetypal feeding concepts and how
they can improve nutritional conditions with fresh foods,
supplements and varied feeding.
Important advances in processing and formulation can
bring foods as close as possible to what the animal’s
genome expects and can thrive on. The Wysong beginning

Wysong RX – 9
Non-Thermal Processing
Through flash freezing and dehydration, Wysong RX
retains all of the raw natural attributes while remaining
exceptionally shelf stable. There is no better way known at
present to preserve natural nutritional value. (See Figure 11.)
On the other hand, the toxic burdens presented by
singular feeding of heat degraded processed foods may
tip the scales in the wrong direction for the ill or immunecompromised animal, and thwart recovery.
Pathogen control
Figure 13. Typical first-line defense at epithelial surfaces.
Specific natural ingredients in Wysong RX and special
low temperature processes help to inhibit potential foodborne pathogens without sacrificing nutritional quality or
introducing synthetic antimicrobials. Pathogen-active
ingredients include lactoferrin and lactoperoxidase, special
fruit components, and antiparasitic phytoplankton mineral
matrices.
• Lactoferrin
Lactoferrin (LF), particularly concentrated in plasma
and dairy whey, is a bilobular glycoprotein containing Nacetyl D glucosamine, N-acetyllactosamine, galactose,
fucose, mannose, neuraminic acid, and a polypeptide chain
of 689 amino acids configured into 25 helices, 32 sheets
and 58 turns with two binding sites for ferric ions (Fe3+)
and bicarbonate. It is closely related in structure to the
plasma ion transport protein, transferrin. If the molecule is
not saturated with iron it is apolactoferrin, if saturated it is
hololactoferrin. (See Figures 12, 13 and 14.)
Figure 12. Iron-binding mechanism of lactoferrin.
LF is found in all epithelial exocrine secretions bathing
mucous membranes and is present in saliva and tears,
bronchial, nasal, bile and pancreatic secretions, milk,
colostrum, semen, cervical mucus, urine, and is also
synthesized by neutrophils. It is a first line of defense.
10 – Wysong RX
Figure 14. Bilobed lactoferrin molecule
containing two binding sites for Fe3+
LF can sequester iron from bacterial pathogens
resulting in a bacteriostatic effect. Its highly positively
charged N-terminus region can also bind to
lipopolysaccharides on bacterial cell walls, increasing
permeability and resulting in a bacteriocidal action.
Additionally, LF can bind to viral envelope protein,
preventing fusion to cells by shielding the binding domain.
LF immunomediator activity includes:
Ø Release of neutrophil-activating interleukin 8
Ø Production of other interleukins
Ø Antibody synthesis
Ø Lymphocyte proliferation
Ø Complement activation
Ø T-cell proliferation
Ø Protective function over macrophages
and lymphocytes
Ø Activation of natural killer cells
Ø Induction of colony-stimulating activity
at specific receptor cells in the colon where it is readily
absorbed. As both a scavenger and iron donor, LF helps
regulate iron nutrition, contributing or removing iron as
cellular circumstances dictate. (See Figure 16.)

• Lactoperoxidase
Lactoperoxidase (LPO) is an abundant enzyme in milk,
whey fractions and other exocrine secretions such as tears
and saliva. LPO is a complex glycoprotein containing an
iron-bound heme and a chelated calcium ion. It, like LF,
serves as a first line of defense.
LPO is both bacteriostatic and bactericidal. Gram
negative, catalase positive organisms are more readily
LF is probiotic by inhibiting pathogens and stimulating inhibited by LPO than are gram positive, catalase negative
beneficial gut flora. (Surprisingly, LF is pathogen-selective, bacteria. Gram negative, catalase positive organisms,
leaving beneficial flora intact.) Clinical data have (coliforms, salmonella, etc.) are not only inhibited, but are

Staphylococcus, and Listeria.
LF also seems to work in synergy with antibiotics.
One study showed that E. coli toxin challenge resulted in
74% mortality in controls and 17% in LF subjects. In
another study, kidney infections were reduced by 40-60%
and bacterial counts 5-12 fold.
As a free iron scavenger, apo-lactoferrin helps prevent
oxidation and free radical formation. (Iron is a strong
oxidizer.) As such, DNA repair mechanisms are protected,
thus enhancing health, slowing the aging process and serving
to combat neoplasia. LF can transport iron and release it

disrupt outer cuticle membranes resulting in their
desiccation and death.
Figure 18. Bacterial effect LP-system on enteropathogenic E. coli in a milk product (DVM International,
1966).
LPO exerts its antimicrobial action by catalyzing the
oxidation of thiocyanate ions (SCN-) to hypothiocyanate
(OSCN-) an anion in equilibrium with hypothocyanous
(HOSCN) acid. HOSCN is the mediator in bacterial
killing, being cell permeable and capable of oxidizing
sulfhydral groups in enzymes, thus inhibiting glycolysis as
well as NADH/NADPH dependent reactions. The
sulfhydral groups in bacterial cytoplasmic membranes are
also oxidized, resulting in the loss of the ability to transport
glucose and leaking of potassium ions, amino acids and
peptides. Remarkably these cytotoxic effects occur
without damage to host cells. It is theorized that some
disease states characterized by chronic bacterial infection
may be due to a breakdown of this lactoperoxidase system
at mucosal interfaces. (See Figure 17.)
• Fruit Extracts
Certain fruits have remarkable antioxidant and
antimicrobial activity without attendant toxicities
characteristic of synthetic additives. WRX fruit extract
contains malic acid, sorbitol, phenolic antioxidants such
as chlorogenic and neochlorogenic acids and an array of
other nutritionally beneficial components.
Incorporation of this ingredient in WRX provides
excellent product protection and nutraceutical benefits.
(See Figures 20, 21 and 22.)
LPO acts synergistically with LF and secretory
immunoglobulins in Wysong RX formulations to stabilize
shelf life and exert in vivo antibacterial effects.

probiotic cultures mimic the probiotic-rich viscera of the
prey animal. (See Figure 23.)
Natural foods not heated above approximately 118ºF
contain enzymes that can aid in the digestion of food. WRX
contain these natural food enzymes and supplemental
enzymes as well. This spares digestive and pancreatic
exertion. Since digestion is one of the most strenuous
metabolic acts, easing this stress is particularly beneficial
to the compromised animal. (See Figure 24.)

Beneficial Effects of Enterococcus faecium:
1. Fermentation of carbohydrate to lactic acid, thus lowering gastrointestinal pH and
discouraging pathogenic growth.
2. An increase in palatability of the food it is found in and growth stimulation.
3. Production of antitoxins, which help to neutralize enterotoxins from E. coli.
4. Production of hydrogen peroxide, which has a bacteriocidal effect on anaerobic
microorganisms.
5. Production of a metabolite that has specific activity against E. coli.
6. Production of antibiotics and bacteriocins, such as acidophylin, acidolin, lactalin, and
nisin. These act against a variety of pathogenic species such as S. proteus, P. aeruginosa,
B. subtilus, Salmonella, Shigella, and Clostridium.
7. Change in the re-dox (oxidation-reduction) potential, thus creating an unsuitable
environment for the aerobic pathogenic microorganism.
8. Crowding out of the other microorganisms by implanting on the mucous surfaces and villi,
thus decreasing the coliform count.
9. A low sensitivity to most common antibiotics. May be used safely in combination with:
Aureomycin, Oxytetracycline, Bacitracin, Lincomycin, ASP-250, Furacin, Carbodox
(Mecadox), and Virginiamycin. Proven to be sensitive to: Ampicillin, Tetracycline,
Spectinomycin, Novabiacin, and Gentacin.
10. Inhibition of bacteria that degrade intestinal protein to non-utilizable forms.

Antioxidation
Free radical pathology underlies most disease.
Oxidation of food components can significantly contribute
to the body’s free radical load, a load that is already
excessive in disease states. Additionally, valuable fatty
acids such as omega 3, 6, and 9 can be damaged – creating
eicosanoid deficiency, imbalance and toxic end products.
WRX contain several natural antioxidants such as vitamins
C and E, carotenoids and flavanoids, organic acids to
14 – Wysong RX
chelate prooxidant metals, and plant phytochemicals. In
addition, fats are micropurged of oxygen by special nitrogen
injection. (See Figures 25 and 26.)
WRX is designed to provide metabolic antioxidant
protection as well as protection of nutrients within the
package. (See Figure 27.)
Figure 25.
Figure 26.
Nutraceuticals
Nutraceuticals are active foods, or components of
natural foods, with specific beneficial metabolic effects.
Unlike pharmaceuticals, their contraindications are
practically nil if used within reason. This is due to the fact
that natural substances are part of biological experience
(as opposed to synthetics) and metabolic pathways are in
place to both utilize their benefits and detoxify noxious
elements. Although nutraceutical effects are not as
immediately dramatic as pharmaceuticals, they help address
underlying causes and work with the body’s own healing
mechanisms rather than merely masking symptoms.
The special combination of the non-thermally processed
meat-organ-bone base, combined with specific scientifically
validated nutraceuticals and other micronutrients provides
the clinician an excellent and readily (even eagerly) accepted
treatment option as an adjuvant to conventional therapy.
Figure 27.
Wysong RX – 15
The following, in brief, describes the biochemical activity of specific nutraceuticals with substantiated effects. For
further investigation and details of proofs, see the references listed in each of the individual RX formulations. (see pp 29
- 63)
These compounds may be found in a variety of natural ingredients and thus are not listed as individual compounds on
RX labels.
Acetyl-L-Carnitine (ALC) – is an amino acid important to cellular energy
production and is the form of L-Carnitine capable of crossing the blood-brain
barrier. ALC is vital to nerve/muscle communication, learning, alertness and
problem solving. ALC promotes synthesis of acetylcholine (ACh) by donating
acetyl groups and by activating the enzyme choline acetyltransferase (CAT)
responsible for producing acetylcholine. Benefits of ALC
supplementation include improvement in general metabolism
of the nervous system, improvement in mental function by
enhancing membrane stability, energy production, nerve
transmission and enhanced membrane, nucleic acid and
metabolic stability through decreasing free radical activity.
Actein, cimicifugoside and formononetin – are triterpene glycosides and isoflavones found in the roots of black
cohosh. These phytoestrogen compounds were tested in a randomized, double-blind study comparing their effects to
those of estrogen and placebo. Study participants improved equally on phytoestrogens and estrogen while there was
no improvement in the placebo control group.
Adrenal glandular (peptide hormone precursors, enzymes, natural lipids factors, soluble proteins, vitamins
and minerals) – provides hormonal precursors and other nutrients. Adrenal exhaustion contributes to fatigue, immune
dysfunction, hypoglycemia, allergies and arthritis. The biologically active components in adrenal glandular have
immunomodulatory effects and anti-inflammatory properties, increase resistance to allergic reactions and infections,
and provide adrenal strength for stress, allergies, muscle tone, blood-sugar balance, endurance, energy, blood circulation
and sodium/water balance.
Alkaloids and flavonols – are effective anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agents promoting immunomodulation and
lymphocytosis.
Allicin – has anti-inflammatory properties, inhibits the release of histamine and
inhibits Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Bacillus, Brucella, and Vibrio species,
as well as Candida albicans. Allicin blocks oxidation-caused injury to
pulmonary arterial cells, mainly by sparing the levels of intracellular glutathione,
free radical scavenging, and by elimination of toxins.
Alpha-lipoic acid – lowers blood glucose levels by increasing its utilization in
muscle and increasing insulin sensitivity. Alpha-lipoic acid also increases
levels of reducing agents and regenerates other antioxidants in brain and
nerves thereby providing antioxidant effects. Many clinical studies show
promising effects in preventing nerve damage and polyneuropathy.
16 – Wysong RX
Anthocyanosides – strengthen collagen in blood vessel walls, decrease intraocular pressure, improve capillary
blood flow, prevent capillary fragility, stimulate the release of vasodilators, and decrease collagen breakdown.
Anthocyanosides work with the intricate microcirculation in the eye to help prevent restricted blood flow and aid the
flow of nutrients into, and metabolic wastes out of, ocular tissue.
Anthraquinone saccharides – help heal and prevent gastric ulcers by inactivating pepsin and by binding to parietal
cells, thus interfering with hydrochloric acid release. These compounds also act as demulcents preventing irritants
from reaching stomach lesions.
Antioxidants – are essential in both cancer prevention and treatment because of their ability to scavenge free
radicals, reduce inflammation, assist in detoxification, regulate the immune system, and promote healing. Antioxidants
aid in reducing stress-induced free radicals. Natural source beta-carotene and other flavonoids, Vitamin C, Vitamin E
and alpha-lipoic acid have potent antioxidant activity.
Apigenin – is a flavonoid which binds to the same GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid)
receptors which have an affinity for benzodiazepines and barbiturates. Apigenin competitively
inhibits the binding of flunitrazepam, a benzodiazepine. Apigenin has anxiolytic activity without
incidence of sedation or muscle relax-ation effects at doses similar to those used for classical
benzo-diazepines.
Apple polyphenols – prevent the attachment of S. sobrinus to tooth surfaces, thus inhibiting its production of
glucans and other cariogenic factors. This antibacterial function prevents both tooth demineralization and dental
caries. Polyphenols have also been shown in clinical studies to be effective in eliminating bad breath by inhibiting
bacterial production of methyl-marcaptan by up to 80 percent.
Arbutin – a glycoside, has antiseptic and diuretic activity. It is metabolized to an antibacterial hydroquinone in the
intestines, then linked to a hydrophilic molecule in the liver and carried via the blood to the kidney. There, the
hydroquinone is released from its carrier and provides analgesia as well as antisepsis throughout the urinary tract.
Ascorbic acid – is the major dietary form of vitamin C. Vitamin C is a hexose derivative, similar in
structure to glucose (high dietary sugars inhibit vitamin C activity by competing for binding sites).
Vitamin C can scavenge tissue damaging reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. Ascorbic acid is an
excellent reducing agent, acts as a cofactor in many biochemical reactions, inhibits lipid peroxidation
and oxidative DNA and protein damage.
Biochanin, formononetin, diadzein and genistein – are isoflavones that have a high affinity for beta estrogen
receptors predominant in heart, vascular, bone and bladder tissue. Some effects include protection against endocrine
related cancers such as breast and prostate cancer, improved bladder sphincter tone and improvement in postmenopausal symptoms related to estrogen deficiency.
Bitter orange – is a thermogenic phytonutrient that increases metabolic rate utilizing adipose energy reserves and
sparing lean muscle tissue.
Blood plasma – consists of approximately 50% albumin, 25% immunoglobulins (including alpha, beta, and gamma
globulins), 5% fibrin, and 20% other proteins including haptoglobolin, transferrin, and growth factors. More than
15% of the immunoglobulins present are Immunoglobulin G (IgG), which when consumed orally can increase the
beneficial intestinal level of IgGs. An increase in intestinal IgG enhances enteropathogenic immunity resulting in elevated
pathogen resistance. Ingestion of plasma also enhances enteric immunity, which prevents over stimulation of the
systemic immune system.
Wysong RX – 17
Branched chain amino acids – including leucine, valine, and isoleucine regulate blood glucose levels and are also
necessary for growth and repair of muscle tissue. They serve as building blocks for tissue proteins and as carbon
precursors for the synthesis of tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates, ketone bodies, and fat. They also provide carbon
and nitrogen precursors for synthesis of other amino acids, such as alanine, glutamate, and glutamine for tissue repair.
Natural calcium sources – contain over 70 different major and trace minerals, many of which are chelated for
optimal assimilation. Calcium can bind with oxalate in the intestine before it enters the bloodstream or urinary tract.
Calcium exists in bone primarily in the form of hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2). Calcium concentration of dental
plaque is an important determinant of the balance between enamel demineralization and remineralization. The rate of
dissolution of hydroxyapatite is determined mostly by the level of saturation with calcium and phosphate ions in the
tooth environment. Increasing calcium concentration disfavors demineralization and favors remineralization.
Co-enzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) – is a lipophilic, water-insoluble nutrient involved in electron transport and energy
production in mitochondrial membranes. CoQ10
is of fundamental importance to cells with high
metabolic demands. As with other antioxidant
nutrients, CoQ10 is subject to increased turnover
as a result of stress or increased free radical load.
Immune
cells, cardiac
and skeletal
muscle cells
have a high
metabolic
rate and can
easily ex-haust co-enzyme Q10 reserves.
Colostrum – provides immune factors, such as Immunoglobulin G (IgG), which has anti-viral activity and helps to
repair nucleic acids. Colostrum is also rich in casein, lactoferrin, alpha-lactalbumin, beta-lactoglobulin, insulin-like
growth factors 1 and 2 (IGF-1 and IGF-2), transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) and epidermal growth factor
(EFG).
Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) – decreases white and brown adipose tissue, and helps regulate energy metabolism
of skeletal muscle to promote lean body mass. CLA is thought to reduce body fat composition by inhibiting heparinreleasable lipoprotein lipase, which affects glucose metabolism in adipocytes causing less fat to be stored.
Curcuminoids – are polyphenolic compounds that have antioxidant, anticarcinogenic, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Curcuminoid antioxidant activity includes its ability to increase
glutathione perxoidase, glutathione reductase, glucose-6-phosphate
dehydrogenase and catalase. The surmised anticarcinogenic activity
of curcuminoids is thought to be its ability to inhibit angiogenesis,
upregulate apoptosis, and interfere with specific signal transduction
pathways that are necessary for tumor cell proliferation. Curcumin
also assists in detoxification of drugs and chemicals by increasing
phase II-metabolizing enzymes in the kidney and liver.
Capsaicin – relieves pain associated with arthritis by acting on sensory neurotransmitters leading to their depletion.
VR1, the capsaicin receptor, is a sensory neuron-specific ion channel that serves as a detector of pain-producing
18 – Wysong RX
chemicals and physical stimuli. The response of VR1 to capsaicin is
dynamically potentiated by extracellular protons within a pH range
encountered during tissue acidosis associated with arthritis. Capsaicin
has analgesic and anti-inflammatory actions and also acts as an antioxidant
and an inhibitor of platelet adhesion.
Carotenoids – such as lycopene are associated with a lower risk of lung cancer. The mechanism of this anticarcinogenic
activity is not well understood, but may be due in part to antioxidant activity. Lycopene has the highest antioxidant
activity of all the carotenoids. It has the ability to trap peroxyl radicals, inhibit the oxidation of DNA,
quench singlet oxygen, and inhibit lipid peroxidation. Lycopene may also stimulate gap junction communication between
cells, suppress carcinogen-induced phosphorylation of regulatory proteins such as p53 and Rb antioncogenes, reduce
cellular proliferation due to insulin-like growth factors, and stop cell division at the G0-G1 cell cycle phase.
Cetyl myrisoleate – is a fatty acid ester comprised of the 16 carbon alcohol, cetyl alcohol, and the 14 carbon
monounsaturated fatty acid cis-9 tetradecenoic acid (also known as myristoleic acid). Recent research has found that
at least 87% of arthritic patients given cetyl myristoleate saw significant improvement in pain and mobility.
Certain cheeses – have unique properties which help prevent tooth decay. Cheese alkalinity buffers the acidity
which predisposes to plaque. Also, cheese is a good gustatory stimulant of salivary flow which dilutes and clears sugars
from the oral cavity. Cheese proteins inhibit demineralization and aid in remineralization, resulting in retained or
regained enamel hardness.
Chlorophyll – is an effective natural tissue cleansing and detoxifying agent. Nutritional stress caused by poor diet, as
well as environmental pollutants, leads to toxic buildup and improper adrenal function. Chlorophyll increases peristaltic
action and cell growth, supports the immune system, modulates blood sugar and insulin secretion and thus decreases
the need for production of adrenal stress hormones.
Collagen – is a protein made up of triple helix chains of amino acids (predominantly proline, glycine and lysine)
interlaced with negatively charged proteoglycans. Consuming preformed collagen and proteoglycans provides complex
subunits that can be directly incorporated into tissue proteoglycans and greatly augment and stimulate their manufacture.
Collagen may also induce oral tolerance leading to a state of systemic hyporeponsiveness whereby autoantibodies
destructive to joint tissue are not formed.
Diadzein and genistein – are estrogenic isoflavones. These
phytoestrogen compounds have a structure similar to estrogen
and provide estrogenic activity by binding to receptors.
Phytoestrogens create a weak estrogenic effect and are not
associated with the contraindications characteristic of estradiol
and diethylstilbesterol.
DL-methionine – is a powerful antioxidant and urinary acidifier. Sulfates derived
from methionine help create an acidic urine, which has been shown to prevent struvite
formation and also decrease the ability of some bacteria to proliferate in the urinary
tract.
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) – a long-chain polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid, is incorporated into the phospholipid
structure of all cell membranes, and is found in the highest concentration in gray matter and retinal tissue. DHA is
necessary for proper elongation and formation of synapses essential for brain development and maintenance. If adequate
supplies of DHA are present, the placenta preferentially absorbs it during fetal development in lieu of other available
fatty acids. Due to cellular developmental needs of DHA, adequate supplementation helps to maintain optimum gestation
periods, which lead to fully developed offspring. DHA is also beneficial for maternal skin and coat maintenance.
Wysong RX – 19
Dried pancreas and adrenal gland extracts – contain cell determinates of these glandular tissues which supply the
genetic framework for formation of new glandular cells. Nutrients contained within specific tissues stimulate the
corresponding tissue when consumed.
Enzymes such as amylase, protease, lipase, and cellulase- in non-thermally degraded ingredients and from
supplementation, enhance digestive breakdown of ingested materials and spare exocrine pancreatic load.
Eudesmanolide along with germacranolide, taraxol, taraxerol, taraxasterol, stigmasterol, beta-stiosterol,
and p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid – exert various nutraceutical effects including detoxification and diuresis. Studies
have also shown inhibition of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) production by inhibiting interleukin-1 production.
These compounds also exhibit free radical scavenging activity and reduction in the breakage of supercoiled DNA
strands induced by non-site-specific and site-specific hydroxyl radicals.
Fatty acids – such as the omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), modulate high
levels of interleukin 1 (IL-1), a proinflammatory cytokine. Fatty acids also act as agonists for peroxisome proliferatoractive receptors (PPARs) by binding to and transactivating PPARs. This leads to reduced gene expression, and thus
reduced tumor growth.
Flavonoids, proanthocyanidins, terpenes, and flavoglycosides – enhance energy production, inhibit platelet
aggregation, improve the transmission of nerve signals, improve free radical scavenging activity and increase circulation
to the optic nerve.
Flavonoligans including silybin, isosilybin, dilydianin and silychristin – are antihepatotoxic and have antioxidant
and membrane stabilizing properties. These compounds also inhibit the production of, and damage caused by, TNFalpha and cause increases in transforming growth factor beta 1 and c-myc in hepatic tissue.
Galactomannan – is a highly viscous, soluble, dietary fiber found in the seeds of fenugreek. Galactomannan forms a
gel in the stomach, slowing gastric emptying and thickening intestinal contents. This delays the absorption of glucose
preventing spikes in postprandial blood sugar. Fenugreek seeds also contain the amino acid, 4 Hydroxyisoleucine,
which may stimulate insulin secretion. Human studies have shown that fenugreek can help lower cholesterol and blood
sugar levels in persons with moderate atherosclerosis and non-insulin-dependent diabetes. Double-blind trials have
found that fenugreek helps improve blood sugar control in patients with insulin-dependent and non-insulin-dependent
diabetes.
Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) – is an 18 carbon, omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid with three unsaturations. GLA
is converted to dihomogamma-linolenic acid (DGLA), a precursor to the 1-series prostaglandins, including PGE1.
PGE1 suppresses the dermatologic inflammatory response by increasing intracellular cyclic AMP, which in turn reduces
the release of lysosomal enzymes and polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) chemotaxis and adherence to the
endothelium. DGLA is also metabolized to 15-hydroxyl DGLA which blocks the conversion of arachidonic acid to
proinflammatory leukotrienes. GLA is also anti-pruritic, restoring serum IFN-gamma levels.
Gingerols – are components of a mix of volatile oils and phenolic compounds. The ameliorative and anti-inflammatory
effect is by inhibition of prostaglandin and leukotriene biosynthesis.
Ginosenosides – are active saponins. These compounds have a powerful hypoglycemic effect, possibly by slowing
G/I transit time.. The fraction, DPG-3-2, has been found to stimulate insulin release from the pancreas of experimental
animals. In health and in diabetes, ginosenosides lower the glycemic response after carbohydrate consumption. One
controlled study with diabetic subjects demonstrated that ginosenosides lowered blood sugar 20% more than placebo
pills.
Glucans – stimulate macrophages, monocytes, neutrophils, NK (natural killer) cells and LAK (lymphokine-activated
killer) cells. This massive stimulation of immune cells induces the production of cytokines and nitric oxide (NO) in
20 – Wysong RX
macrophages, which are thought to result in antimicrobial and tumoricidal activity. Glucans also stimulate gut-associated
lymphoid tissue (GALT), promoting cell migration to damaged tissue.
Glucosamine – is a component of virtually all tissues as a building block of connective tissue.
Glucosamine is the foundation for cartilage proteoglycans and O-linked and N-linked
glycosaminoglycans (GAGS). Glucosamine has several mechanisms of action including: enhancing
production of glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans, slowing the progression of cartilage lesions,
reducing the generation of oxygen-free radicals by macrophages, inhibiting lysosomal enzymes,
stabilizing cell membranes, and inhibiting interleukin-1-induced nitric oxide activity.
Glucosides – improve learning and memory by stimulating nitric oxide synthesis. Nitric oxide is a vasodilator and thus
enhances the delivery of blood and oxygen to tissues and facilitates the removal of toxins.
Glycoproteins – enhance production of T-cells in peripheral lymph nodes, protect against gamma-radiation and assist
in detoxification of drugs and toxic chemicals, processes which are weakened with age.
Glycyrrihizan, flavanoids, triterpenoids, phytosterols, and coumarins – are anti-inflammatory and inhibit thrombin.
Flavanoids encourage cellular differentiation, as well as mucus formation and secretion protecting the digestive tract.
Green-lipped mussel (GLM) – contains natural protein, vitamins, minerals, mucopolysaccharides, omega-3 fatty
acids, and glycosaminoglycans. Several studies have shown green-lipped mussel inhibits inflammation. Although the
precise mechanism of its anti-inflammatory actions are unknown, GLM contains a unique omega-3 fatty acid,
eicosatetraenoic acid (ETA). ETA acts as a dual inhibitor of arachidonic acid oxygenation by both the lipoxygenase
and cyclooxygenase pathways. Arachidonic acid metabolites perform a major role in the inflammatory sequence.
Also, glycosaminoglycans are components of synovial fluid and cartilage matrix. Glycosaminoglycans may help inhibit
degradative enzyme activity in cartilage, stimulate cartilage matrix production and help prevent thrombus, plaque and
fibrin formation in the synovial and subchondral blood vessels. GLM does not affect platelet aggregation and is
nongastrotoxic.
Gymnemic acids – have been shown to reduce hyperglycemia in both animal and human studies. Two animal studies
in diabetic subjects revealed Gymnema extracts doubled the number of insulin secreting beta cells and returned blood
glucose levels to almost normal. Gymnema also increases the activity of enzymes responsible for glucose uptake and
utilization. Extracts have been found to inhibit epinephrine-induced hyperglycemia. In a controlled study, a standardized
Gymnema extract was given as an adjunct to insulin to twenty-seven type 1 diabetics daily for 6-30 months. Thirtyseven others continued on insulin therapy alone and were tracked for 10-12 months. Insulin requirements were decreased
by almost 50% and the average blood glucose decreased from 232 mg/dl to 152 mg/dl in the Gymnema group. The
control group showed no significant decreases in blood glucose or insulin requirements over the length of the study.
Twenty-two type 2 diabetics
were administered Gymnema
extract daily for 18-20 months
in addition to their oral
hypoglycemic medications. This
group experienced significant
decreases in average blood
sugar and glycosylated
hemoglobin (HbA1c), and an
increase in pancreatic release of
insulin. Medication dosages
were decreased and five were
able to discontinue oral
hypoglycemic agents entirely.
Wysong RX – 21
Harpagoside – has analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. Harpagoside
inhibits both cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase arachidonic acid metabolic
pathways.
Holothurin – is a sulfated triterpenoidal oligoglycoside, a bioflavonoid-like
molecule. Holothurin helps block afferent sensory nerve conduction to reduce
pain and contains high amounts of mucopolysaccharides and chondrocyte
substance providing substrate for connective tissue. Several animal and human
studies have shown a positive effect on arthritis (both rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis) including reduction in
inflammation, pain symptomatology and an increase in joint flexibility.
Hypericin – is used eight to one over standard antidepressants in Germany. Hypericin and pseudohypericin, dianthyrone
derivatives, act by inhibiting the uptake of serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine.
Immunoglobulins such as Immunoglobulin G (IgG) – from milk and plasma fractions, have anti-viral activity, and
help repair damaged nuclear and mitochondrial nucleic acids.
Lactoglobulins – including beta-lactoglobulin and alpha-lactoglobulin from whey have glutathione antioxidant activity
and exert antimicrobial and immunodulatory effects.
Lactones – improve concentration, memory and reaction time and produce physical and mental relaxation, a feeling of
well being, sedation and sleep enhancement.
Lentinin – stimulates maturation and differentiation of immune system cells. More than 300 studies and dozens of
long-term clinical trials establish the effectiveness in immune stimulation and modulation.
L-Glutamine – is a precursor for protein synthesis and an intermediate in a large number of metabolic pathways. As
the amino acid with the highest concentration in the blood stream, L-glutamine serves as a nitrogen transporter between
various tissues, creating natural anabolic nitrogen balance.
Ligans – provide high gum mucilage that soothes, moistens, and protects the intestinal mucosa, buffers excess acid,
and helps to prevent flatulence and stool odor.
Liver – contains elements responsible for the development and maturation of hepatic tissue. Nutrients contained
within specific tissues stimulate the corresponding tissue when consumed by providing immunomodulatory effects,
adrogenic/estrogenic properties, as well as other rejuvenating factors.
L-Arginine – promotes the release of growth hormones. It also regulates glucose utilization by stimulating the release
of glucagons and insulin. L-Arginine enhances the immune system by increasing the number of neutrophils and IgG
antibody levels.
L-Carnitine – is part of the enzyme carnitine acyltransferase I, which converts long chain fatty acyl-CoA derivatives
into O-acylcarnitine for transportation across mitochondria. Once inside the mitochondria, L-carnitine is released
allowing the fatty acyl-CoA derivatives to be used in beta-oxidation reactions that burn excess fat, and prevents it from
being stored as adipose tissue. L-carnitine is also a building block of lean muscle tissue.
L-Leucine – is a branched-chain amino acid that assists in regulating blood glucose levels because it is purely ketogenic.
Upon degradation, neither of its derivatives acetyl-CoA nor acetoacetate are convertible to glucose. L-leucine is also
necessary for growth and repair of muscle tissue.
22 – Wysong RX
L-Taurine- is an important dietary non-protein amino acid produced as the end-product of L-cysteine metabolism. It
is found free-roaming in intracellular cytoplasm, and is necessary for proper development of the brain and retina in the
fetus. Adequate taurine levels in the mother also increase prolactin, necessary for milk production.
Lutein (C40H56O2) – is a member of the xanthophyll class of
carotenoids, which are fat-soluble yellowish pigments found in some
plants, algae and photosynthetic bacteria. It is a polyisoprenoid
containing 40 carbon atoms and cyclic structures at each end of its
conjugated chains. Although not synthesized in situ, lutein is found in
the macula of the retina as well as the crystalline lens. Lutein acts as an antioxidant, protecting cell membrane lipids
from the damaging effects of free radicals.
Magnesium – inhibits the formation of calcium-oxalate crystals in urine by competing with calcium for oxalate.
Mannose – is a carbohydrate that adheres to bacterial receptors on the bladder lining, inhibiting bacterial adhesion.
Medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) – decrease adipose tissue and increase fat oxidation, while having a sparing
effect on fat-free tissue mass, thus encouraging muscle tissue growth and repair. MCTs are rapidly and directly absorbed
in the large intestine for energy use, thus preventing direct deposition into adipose tissue. MCTs also increase calorie
consuming thermogenesis.
Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) – a metabolite of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), is one of the most abundant
biochemicals in tissue. Analgesic effects of MSM are due to vasodilation, an increase in blood supply, reductions in
inflammation and muscle spasm, increased cell membrane permeability, softening of scar tissue, and inhibition of neural
pain impulses. MSM may also help the repair and maintenance of cartilage.
Methylated cellulose – forms a non-fermentable mucilaginous mass which absorbs water to create bulk, causing
stimulation of digestive motility.
N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) – is the N-acetyl derivative of the amino acid L-cysteine. NAC is an excellent source of
sulfhydryl (SH) groups and is converted into metabolites capable of stimulating glutathione synthesis, thus promoting
detoxification and free radical scavenging. The acteyl-substituted amino group makes the molecule more stable against
oxidation and serves as a particularly effective antioxidant.
Omega-3 fatty acids – play critical roles in cell and organelle membrane structure and in a wide array of physiological
processes through eicosanoid modulation. As structural membrane components and precursors to signaling molecules
such as prostaglandins, omega-3 fatty acids can, in effect, control health. Omega-3s improve blood lipid and fatty acid
profiles, lower plasma triacyglycerol concentrations and LDL cholesterol levels, and block excessive and erratic sodium
and calcium currents in the heart. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is the primary building block of the brain where high
concentrations of DHA are found in the cerebral cortex. DHA plays a significant role in cerebral development and is
required for maintenance of normal brain function in adults. Adequate levels of DHA are necessary for proper
neurotransmissions.
Phosphatidylcholine – is a functional and structural element present in all biological membranes, a precursor to
acetylcholine, and plays a rate-limiting role in the activation of numerous membrane-located enzymes, such as superoxidase
dismutase and glutathione, which are antioxidants protecting cell membranes from damage by reactive oxygen species.
Proanthocyanidins – prevent adherence of both antibiotic-resistant and sensitive E. coli strains to the bladder lining,
allowing bacteria to be flushed from the bladder upon urination and preventing establishment of urinary tract infection.
Proanthocyanidins prevent the pilli on the outside of the bacteria from forming properly, resulting in their inability to
adhere to the bladder lining.
Wysong RX – 23
Quercetin – is a flavanoid that prevents the release of histamine by inhibiting
degranulation of mast cells, basophils and neutrophils through cell membrane stabilization.
It also decreases leukotrine formation and lipid peroxidation.
Thymic substance – increases neutrophilic, CD3 and CD4 cellular functions and
salivary IgA levels. Thymic substance also normalizes the function and quantity of Tcells. Nutrients contained within specific tissues stimulate the corresponding tissue
when eaten. Therefore, consumption of thymic substance aids in thymic cell growth,
function and repair, aiding immune response.
Triterpenoids – promote relaxation, enhance and improve memory and treat mental and physical fatigue with mild
tranquilizing, anti-stress and antianxiety actions via the enhancement of cholinergic mechanisms.
Thiosulphonates – are organo-sulphur compounds. Thiosulphonates, such as allicin, ajoene, diallyl sulfide (DAS),
diallyl disulfide (DADS), S-allylmercapto cysteine and S-methylmercapto cysteine provide beneficial pancreatic activities.
Thiosulphonates are believed to augment detoxification through free-radical scavenging as well as combine with thiamine
to promote insulin secretion.
Trona mineral salts – have antibacterial properties and are highly effective natural agents in removing dental plaque.
Trona alkaline minerals are known to inhibit the oral pathogen, Streptococcus sobrinus by 68 percent.
Valepotriates and valeric acid – weakly bind the same receptors in the brain as benzodiazepines, and in vitro they
displace benzodiazepines at receptor sites.
Vanadyl sulphate –
improves glucose control in
non-insulin-dependent
diabetes mellitus primarily
by augmentation of
peripheral
glucose
utilization. Studies have
shown oral doses of
vanadyl sulfate do not alter
insulin sensitivity in nondiabetics but improve both
hepatic and skeletal muscle
insulin sensitivity in noninsulin-dependent diabetics.
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) – is a cofactor in the conversion of
glyoxalate, a precursor of oxalate, to glycine, thus reducing oxalate
formation. Vitamin B6 is used to treat hyperoxaluria when dietary
reduction of oxalate and calcium supplementation are not effective
in the prevention of calcium oxalate calculi.
Whey proteins – contain the amino acids cysteine, glutamate
and glycine, which are nutritional precursors to glutathione.
Glutathione is an important intracellular antioxidant, particularly
within immune cells. The ability of lymphocytes to regenerate
glutathione has a direct effect on their ability to respond to
antigenic stimuli.
24 – Wysong RX
Xylan – is a hydrophilic polysaccharide that absorbs water in the large intestine, increasing stool bulk and stimulating
peristalsis to enhance defecation.
Xylitol –is the only known cariostatic (cavity-inhibiting) sugar. It is a unique, natural carbohydrate containing five
carbon atoms instead of the six contained in sweeteners or sugars (such as fructose and glucose) and thus oral bacteria
are unable to metabolize it. For example, Streptococcus mutans adsorbs on the surface of the teeth. When the pH of

General Cautions
Safe Handling
Any food, natural or not, can potentially trigger allergic
reaction. If slowly introducing WRX as a top-dress to
normal feeding results in digestive or other disturbances,
withdraw for several days and reintroduce. If concomitant
signs reappear, the client should be instructed to discontinue
and seek alternative approaches by consulting with the
veterinarian or Wysong technical staff.
Wash working surfaces, utensils, and hands after
feeding. Excess food should be refrigerated for the next
feeding or discarded. Keep inner bag sealed once opened.
Although WRX are quite stable at room temperature, store
in refrigerator or freezer to retain maximum nutraceutical
value. Keep from direct heat or sunlight.
