Health and Immunity

Colds, flus, and allergies -- we all get them, but do we know how to improve our health and immunity to potentially prevent them? The answer lies in the body's immune system, which is the key to preventing colds and flu, and living a healthier, more fulfilling life. Put simply, when your immune system is strong, you get sick less and have symptoms less often and recover more quickly.


As a leader in health, innovative technology and advanced nutrition, Infinity2, Inc. has once again taken nutritional science to new heights by creating a new immune enhancing product, ImmunePlus. Designed to fight infection and support and build health and immunity, ImmunePlus addresses all aspects of the immune system - from its first line of defense to its last. Each ingredient in ImmunePlus was chosen for the crucial role it plays in immunity and disease prevention.
  • Supports and builds the immune system by
    addressing all aspects of health and immunity.
  • Provides a variety of nutrients and immune factors
    known to reduce infection and enhance the immune system.
  • Enhances immune cell activity.
  • Features Amla, a clinically proven source of
    vitamin C essential for a healthy immunity.
  • Guarantees maximum delivery of nutrients
    with MGG & CAeDS.

ImmunePlus with Colostrum Technical Information

Breast Feeding and Colostrum
The first nutritional boost of the immune system occurs through breast-feeding, which, during the first months of life, conveys many nutritional benefits to the infant and decreases frequency and duration of infection. Many of the positive effects of breast-feeding occur during the first few days after birth when the colostrum - rich in immune proteins, amino acids, lactoferrin, minerals, vitamins, enzymes, proline-rich proteins and growth factors that enhance immunity - is produced.

The health benefits of colostrum are noticeable in both adults and infants. Whole bovine colostrum has been used in immunocompromised adults for the treatment or prevention of infections. The nutrients and immune factors in colostrum enhance health and immunity and stimulate cell growth and repair. Aware of these benefits, Infinity2 included colostrum as one of the main ingredients in ImmunePlus in order to effectively fight infection. Because colostrum from the first lactation is highest in immune proteins, but becomes more dilute with each subsequent lactation, Infinity2 uses whole bovine colostrum from the first lactation, obtained from disease-free cows that haven't been fed chemicals or pesticide fodder.

Vitamin C and Amla

Vitamin C is an essential water-soluble nutrient that plays several key roles in maintaining health and immunity. Nutritional science is aware of the benefits of Vitamin C supplementation in immunity, and also aware that individuals who are deficient in vitamin C have lower immune responses. In an interview with CBN News, vitamin C researcher Carol Johnston, PhD, was quoted as saying, "The research overwhelmingly indicates vitamin C will reduce the severity and duration of colds. Your cold might decrease by one to two days." Vitamin C is important in health and immunity because it:

  • Fights free radicals.
  • Protects DNA and other important molecules.
  • Combats the effects of stress by destroying histamine
    and replacing stress-induced carnitine loses.
  • Assists production of the immune tagging proteins
    required to initiate part of the immune response.

Dr. Johnston's research indicates that up to 30% of Americans might have what is considered to be low stores of C. To address this need, ImmunePlus includes Amla, one of the richest whole food sources of C. Unlike synthetic sources of ascorbic acid, Amla contains the other phytonutrients and components that make a complete C. Its the only natural source of vitamin C that has been clinically proven, and contains large amounts of other phytonutrients and antioxidants, making it a widely used source of vitamin C for research studies. Amla has also been studied and compared directly to ascorbic acid for its effects on blood lipids as well as its effects on immunity.(32)

Probiotic Supplementation
In addition to colostrum and Amla, Infinity2 considered the first line of defense in infection immunity: intestinal flora. Infinity2 included several strains of bacteria -- specifically chosen for their special benefits to the immune system -- in ImmunePlus. Along with preventing infective organisms from gaining a foothold in the GI tract, these strains of bacteria also enhance the activity of immune cells. Thus, nonspecific anti-infective health mechanisms of defense are improved without causing severe systemic responses.

MGG and CAeDS™
Infinity2's ImmunePlus also includes the only stabilized form of glutamine available (Magnesium Glycl Glutamine or MGG). Glutamine is well known for its health, nutritional and immunological benefits (see ProView vol 5, no 1). ImmunePlus, like all of Infinity2's products contains the company's exclusive Chelate Activated Enzyme Delivery System (CAeDS). While MGG provides immunological effects which help in the reduction of infection, it benefits and compliments the nutrient delivery system to allow full absorption to take place, it is the CAeDS system that acts to ensure assimilation and utilization by the remaining cells of the body. CAeDS guarantees the maximum delivery of nutrients to the cells of the body, assuring that the high-quality, infection prevention and health and immune-enhancing ingredients of ImmunePlus are delivered to the body cells that need them.
