EpiCor, the immune balancing, all-natural, high-metabolite immunogen manufactured by Embria Health Sciences, was recently the subject of a June 2007 Nutrition Research Journal in vitro study that evaluated the consumable ingredient’s immunomodulating effects on human leukocytes. The journal reports that EpiCor possesses significant anti-inflammatory activity and induces direct activation and increased chemotactic awareness of lymphocyte subsets.
The study’s lead researchers selected anti-inflammatory and lymphocyte activation assays because of EpiCor’s high oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) value, as well as the initial evidence pointing to EpiCor’s favorable immunomodulating effects on factory employees manufacturing the ingredient. The company’s overall healthcare costs were recorded as half the cost of insuring comparable Blue Cross Blue Shield groups.
In this study, researchers found that EpiCor reduced production of the pro-inflammation reactive oxygen species (ROS); activated antibody-generating B lymphocytes; increased the activity of natural killer (NK) cells; and inhibited mitogen-induced T-cell proliferation; and reduced production of the pro-inflammatory cytokine interferon gamma.
