Imuno TF® Complex
Boost your immune system
Imuno TF® Complex is a blend of carefully chosen ingredients that can help to regulate immune responses though multiple pathways. This contributes to a healthy immune system and protects cells from oxidative stress.
What makes Imuno TF® Complex different?
Most products aim to strengthen the immune system as a whole. However, a strong immune response is not always ideal, as it can trigger hyperinflammatory reaction or autoimmune diseases. Imuno TF® Complex was developed to regulate the immune system, increasing Th1 responses and decreasing Th2 responses to provide an adequate balance of immune responses.
Ingredients
Isolated Transfer Factors
Ultra-purified and non-allergenic blend of oligo- and polypeptides, known as transfer factors. Regulates the immune response, increasing the body’s natural defences and avoiding overproduction of inflammatory and allergenic molecules.
Cat’s Claw Dry Bark Extract (Uncaria tomentosa)
Cat’s claw has immunostimulant, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. It can also decrease lipid peroxidation and reduce the level of reactive oxygen species, presenting activity against bacteria and viruses.
Astaxanthin (from Haematococcus pluvialis extract)
Astaxanthin is often referred to as a “super-antioxidant” molecule, because of its capacity to reduce free radicals and oxidative stress, 65 times greater than vitamin C, 54 times greater than β-carotene, and 100 times greater than α-tocopherol. This molecule also presents immunomodulating activity.
Zinc gluconate
Zinc is a crucial element for normal development and function of cells mediating nonspecific immunity, such as neutrophils and natural killer (NK) cells. A good zinc status is recommended to support an effective immune function.
Selenium yeast
Selenium can contribute to the normal functioning of the immune system through the stimulation of CD4+ Th1 and CD8+ lymphocytes, NK cells, and macrophage phagocytosis. Selenium is also a potent antioxidant that contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
Vitamin D3
Vitamin D3 plays a role in the regulation (inhibition) of B cell proliferation and differentiation (B cells are recognised as key factors in inflammation, as they can secrete inflammatory cytokines). As Vitamin D3 exhibits anti-inflammatory properties, it could boost innate immunity while controlling a potentially harmful inflammatory response. This immunoregulatory effect could in turn prevent a hyperinflammatory response caused by respiratory tract infections.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system, increasing lymphocytes B and T proliferation and differentiation at a controlled rate. It can also increase the activation of NK-cells, improving immune response against foreign invaders.
Ferulic acid
Ferulic acid induces various peroxidase enzymes (which neutralise hydrogen peroxidase, a reactive oxygen species) and promote synthesis of glutathione (antioxidant). It also provides potential protection against tissue damage (including lung) coming from excessive inflammatory response.
Resveratrol (from Polygonum cuspidatum)
Resveratrol can inhibit the production of inflammatory factors, and reduce NF-κB, TNF-α, IL-1 and IL-6. It can also increase the activation of NK-cells, improving immune response against foreign invaders.
Spirulina
Spirulina can increase the activation of macrophages and NK-cells, improving immune response against foreign invaders; and of T-cells functions, promoting their activation and proliferation.
N-acetyl cysteine
N-acetyl cysteine can help to prevent and control RNA virus infections.
Glucosamine sulfate potassium chloride
Glucosamine can help to prevent and control RNA virus infections.
