The main job of Immunoglobulins is to protect you from “foreign invaders”! Antibodies use various methods they use the body of unwanted microbes.
• Agglutination (cause to clump together)
• Precipitation (cause to fall out of solution)
• Neutralization (inactivation)
• Opsonization:
1. Where antibodies coat foreign antigens
2. Making them more susceptible to the cells of the immune system
3. These cells come along to devour and destroy it
4. The end result is the production of more antibodies
Protection always begins with an antigen-antibody complex. Below is an excellent example of how an antibody/antigen complex is brought about. (Read left to right, top to bottom.) Antibodies will attach themselves to binding sites on a virus, thus preventing the virus to bind to receptors on your cells. This is called neutralization. Once the virus develops this antigen-antibody complex certain cells of the immune system will recognize this “complex” and ingest it then destroy it.
Antibiotics will destroy both beneficial and harmful bacteria, which can lead to additional health problems in the long term. Immunoglobulin (Immunolin) specifically recognizes foreign invaders while ignoring good bacteria which are part of the body’s natural environment.
Why Immune Oral Supplementation?
Most disease that occurs in the body comes into the body from the nose and mouth. John Christopher, M.H., N.D., observes that between 80% to 90% of all disease and illness enter the body through mucosal tissue (air passageways, lungs, gastrointestinal tract, eyes, ears, urinary tract). As a result, immune oral supplementation is reasonable and sensible. From our very beginnings we relied on breast milk as our primary source of immunity.
As soon as Extreme Immunity is swallowed, it goes to work by coating your throat, and a very small amount atomizes in the nasal cavity. As soon as it is in the stomach, some of it gets absorbed and goes right into the blood stream. The rest goes into the intestines where it reinforces the immune response. This relieves pathogenic challenges in the gut and redirects the available immunoglobulin to face other “battles” else where in the body.
Our incidence of disease and infection greatly depends on the concentration and accumulation of immunoglobulin in our digestive tract. Every day the healthy adult produces approximately 5 grams of immunoglobulin in the digestive tract (sometimes called gut). During times of stress or illness, generating that amount can be problematic, yet it is very important to our overall health and well being. Extreme Immunity provides supplemental immunoglobulin to enhance our finite, and often depleted, resources.
