“Immunocal is a supplement with a well developed molecular structure that has been confirmed in laboratory testing to increase immune function within the human genome. This is the only way to naturally and assuredly increase master antioxidant function by 12- 20% for those able to use Immunocal.”
– Lisa Regan PhD,MSc, CCN
To ensure the athlete’s energy level is maintained and their immune system remains strong throughout the training cycle, we recommend that an immunocal protein supplement be incorporated into the training program.
Immunocal is a safe way for the athlete to boost their energy and support their immune system.
Immunocal is a pharmaceutical-grade milk serum protein isolate that produces a sustained delivery of cystine to the cells via normal metabolic pathways. By providing cystine, immunocal allows the cells to synthesize and replenish their glutathione stores without adverse or toxic effects.
No. Immunocal has no proven or known toxicity. It has less than 1% lactose. However, if the athlete has a milk protein allergy or has had an organ transplant we recommend they consult a physician before taking immunocal.
Yes. Immunocal is not known to adversely affect any other prescribed medicines or nutritional supplements such as ensure, boost, or juven. In fact immunocal will add missing ingredients that are vital to an athlete’s health and immune system.
A suggested daily dose is 1-2 packets, depending on the athlete’s needs.
Immunocal should be mixed with two to three teaspoons of plain yogurt. The yogurt will help protect the protein from the acidity in the stomach while it is being absorbed. However, immunocal can be mixed with water, juice, any dairy product, or any other room temperature liquid of choice.
There is a huge difference between glutathione production from Immunocal and taking exogenous glutathione. First of all, oral glutathione only has around 10% absorption due to the acidity in the gut. Too much GSH (active form of glutathione) in the cell will offset the delicate ratio between GSH and GSSG. This will then stop the oxidation reduction process and the cell will come under the same oxidative stress as if it had no glutathione at all. It is important to note that there is also a threshold for glutathione in the plasma and too much will prevent the conversion from the inactive form of glutathione to the active form, which is called glutathione peroxidase.
Yes, children under 12 years old can take half a pack of immunocal per day. After 12 years they can take a full pack.
