EpiCor Plus Immunity: supporting the immune system, improving antioxidant defenses, promoting gut health and increasing general well-being.

EpiCor® is a proprietary ingredient derived from a dry yeast ferment. The yeast used in the fermentation process is Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is commonly known as baker's yeast or brewer's yeast. During the fermentation process, the yeast is exposed to specific conditions that favor the production of bioactive compounds.

The resulting dry yeast ferment, EpiCor, contains a unique combination of nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antioxidants, polyphenols and other metabolites. These compounds are naturally present in yeast and are believed to contribute to the potential health benefits of EpiCor.

EpiCor has gained attention for its potential immune system supporting properties. It is thought to work by activating different aspects of the immune system. It helps support the body's natural defense mechanisms by promoting the production of immune cells, improving the activity of natural killer (NK) cells and stimulating the production of antibodies.

In addition to its effects on immune health, EpiCor has been studied for its potential benefits on other aspects of well-being. It has been suggested to support digestive health by promoting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria and maintaining a healthy balance of gut microbiota. EpiCor may also have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which may contribute to its overall health-promoting effects.



 

EpiCor Plus Immunity composition

 

• Vitamin C (ascorbic acid):

Vitamin C is an essential water-soluble vitamin and a powerful antioxidant. It plays a crucial role in immune function, supporting the production and functioning of immune cells. Vitamin C also helps synthesize collagen, which is important for maintaining healthy skin, cartilage and blood vessels.
 

• Vitamin D-3 (cholecalciferol):

Vitamin D-3 is a fat-soluble vitamin that is obtained mainly through exposure to sunlight. It plays a vital role in bone health by promoting the absorption of calcium and phosphorus. Vitamin D-3 also modulates the immune system and helps regulate cell growth and differentiation.
 

• Zinc (Zinc Biglycinate, TRAACS®):

Zinc is an essential mineral involved in numerous enzymatic reactions in the body. It plays a crucial role in immune function, wound healing, DNA synthesis and cell division. Zinc also acts as an antioxidant and supports the maintenance of healthy skin, hair and nails.
 

• Selenium (L-selenomethionine):

Selenium is a trace mineral with antioxidant properties. It is incorporated into various selenoproteins, which function as antioxidants and play a role in thyroid hormone metabolism. Selenium also supports immune function and helps protect cells from oxidative damage.
 

• Olive leaf extract (Olea europaea):

Olive leaf extract is derived from the leaves of the olive tree. It contains a compound called oleuropein, which has been studied for its potential antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Oleuropein may help support immune function and cardiovascular health. Additionally, olive leaf extract may have antiviral properties and help maintain a healthy blood pressure level.



 

EpiCor Plus Immunity Benefits

 

• Immune Support:

Dry yeast ferment has been shown to support immune function by activating various aspects of the immune system. It has been found to enhance the activity of immune cells such as natural killer (NK) cells and macrophages, which play a crucial role in identifying and eliminating pathogens. In addition, it can support the production of antibodies, which help recognize and neutralize harmful substances.
 

• Antioxidant activity:

Dry yeast ferment contains natural antioxidants such as polyphenols and flavonoids that help neutralize harmful free radicals. By reducing oxidative stress, these antioxidants can support cellular health and contribute to overall well-being.
 

• Promoting gut health:

Dry yeast ferment has been studied for its effects on gut health. It can support a healthy balance of gut bacteria by promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria such as lactobacilli and bifidobacteria. A healthy gut microbiota is associated with improved digestion, nutrient absorption and immune function.
 

• Support for respiratory health:

Some studies have suggested that fermented dry yeast may have positive effects on respiratory health. It can help maintain a healthy respiratory system by supporting the body's natural defenses against airborne pathogens and promoting a balanced immune response in the respiratory tract.
 

• Skin health benefits:

Dry yeast ferment has been investigated for its potential benefits on skin health. It can help support the skin's natural defense mechanisms, promote healthy skin function, and maintain the overall health and appearance of the skin.
