(Previously Named NatCell ImmuniT by Atrium Biotechnologies) XtraCell Immunity provided by Douglas Laboratories®, is an innovative and proprietary frozen liquid extract consisting of specific proteins, peptides and other growth factors and signaling molecules obtained from porcine thymus, liver and spleen tissues to support healthy functioning of the immune system.
Ingredients in each vial:
Porcine thymus aqueous extract.......5.5 ml
Porcine liver aqueous extract.......1.75 ml (enriched with Mesenchyme 125x)
Porcine spleen aqueous extract.......1.75 ml (enriched with Mesenchyme 125x)
Suggested use: One bottle per day on an empty stomach or as recommended by a physician. Thaw the product immediately before use; hold in the palm of your hand to accelerate the thawing process. For maximum potency, keep frozen until use.
These little frozen glandulars have done some miraculous things for me and my family's health. They are the most powerful product I have found for strengthening the Immune System. On three separate occasions, they have allowed me to get completely get rid of serious bronchial infections, a flu, and a cold before they ever got bad. Still have not missed a day of work in 4 years and plan to keep it that way. The cost is high, but worth every dime. I recommend adding in Oregacyn for bronchial and sinus infections. ImmunoKinoko AHCC is a great additional product for cancer and HIV patients.

FunctionsXtra-Cell Immunity is manufactured and purified via a patented low temperature process that involves homogenization, fractionation, and ultrafiltration of porcine thymus, liver and spleen tissues. The molecules present in this product are selected based on their size and molecular weight (less than 50,000 Daltons), and are isolated in their native state. Once the molecules are selected, the liquid is aseptically bottled and flash-frozen without preservatives to ensure optimal potency, freshness and bioavailability. This process can be applied to different starting materials, allowing for the creation of liquid extracts that are targeted for specific applications. The extracts created from these three tissues are highly bioavailable and of the highest quality available.
Liver As the bodys main detoxification organ, the liver is responsible for removing all potentially detrimental molecules such as alcohol, drugs and air pollutants from the blood stream. The liver also plays important roles in the synthesis of bile, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, and production of certain coagulation factors, among its other roles. What is not as well known is that the liver also plays a role in maintaining healthy immune function, as Kupffer cells found within the liver have the ability to modulate immune function. The signaling factors present in Xtra-Cell Immunity can help to support the regenerative and immune functions of the liver.
Spleen The spleen is the largest lymphatic organ and is responsible among other things for trapping and eliminating blood-born pathogens. Consequently, the spleen plays a major role in the healthy functioning of the immune system. Xtra-Cell Immunity provides spleen specific cell signaling factors and bioactive peptides to support the healthy functioning of the spleen.
Thymus The thymus is integral in the maturation and maintenance of the immune system. It functions by releasing thymic factors that affect its own regulation as well as the functions of other cells throughout the body. These thymic factors (including but not limited to thymosins, thymopoietin, thymic factor X, and serum thymic factor) tend to reach their peak at puberty and decline with age. These peptides are important for the healthy maturation and activation of T lymphocytes, which can in turn activate B-lymphocytes and macrophages and contribute to a healthy immune system .* Supplementing with extracts that provide thymic factors may help maintaining normal immune function. As shown in figure 1, Xtra-Cell Thymus extract has been shown to support healthy immune cell activity.
Indications Xtra-Cell Immunity may be a useful dietary supplement for those who wish to support the healthy functioning of the immune system.
