Immune Supporting

Important cells of the immune system, known as monocytes, have membrane receptors that bind mannose sugar residues, part icularly when more than one mannose molecule are linked together in what is known as a b-(1,4) linkage. Binding of these so called beta-1,4 mannans powerfully activates the monocyte, which in turn secretes many peptide messengers, called cytokines, that orchestrate an organized activation of the immune response. For this reason, Aloe vera, both as the fresh gel, and in appropriately processed and stabilized extracts, has been shown to support healthy immune function.*

Aloe Vera in Convenient , Easy - to - Use Capsules

Aloe Vera Caps combine the unparalleled synergies of Aloe vera with the amino acids L-Glutamine and L-Glycine in a convenient capsule form. L-Glutamine (Glutamine) is involved in more metabolic processes than any other amino acid (building block of protein) and is also the most abundant amino acid in the body. It serves as the primary fuel source for the cells that line the entire intestinal tract and is essential for their health. If deprived of glutamine, these cells will deteriorate and die.

Glutamine is also essential to the survival and function of lymphocytes and monocytes (white blood cells that are central to maintaining a healthy immune function). In order to grow lymphocytes in laboratory tissue culture for scientific research studies, L-glutamine must be added to the culture medium to sustain the lymphocyte cells.

Since over half of the lymphatic tissue of the body is found in specialized areas of the intestinal tract known as the gut associated lymphoid tissue (GALT), by supporting a healthy intestinal tract and including plenty of L- Glutamine in your diet, you are also helping maintain and promote a healthy immune system, which is essential to overall good health.*

L-Glycine is the smallest and simplest of the amino acids. It, along with L-glutamine is one of the few amino acids directly used by the human brain as a neurotrans - mitter (a substance that transmits signals from one brain cell-neuron- to another). Recent research has also shown that L-glycine shares many of L-glutamine’s activities in terms of supporting healthy intestinal and immune function.*

L-glutamine, L-glycine, and the high molecular weight acetylated mannans concentrated from Aloe vera gel, form a powerful synergy (that is, they multiply each other’s effects) for the maintenance and health of the intestinal tract and immune system.
