Sulforaphane,
4-Methylsulphinylbutyl Isothiocyanate
Sulforaphane is a naturally occurring sulfur-containing isothiocyanate derivative that
helps mobilize the human body's natural cancer-fighting resources and reduces the risk of
developing cancer. Within hours of being ingested, sulforaphane enters the bloodstream
where it circulates widely to trigger the immune system response to carcinogens. The
phytochemical acts by inducing a series of proteins termed phase 2 detoxification enzymes,
which act as scavengers for cancer-causing molecules before they can damage DNA and
promote cancer.
AP Washington release 9/16/97:
"Broccoli Sprouts are loaded with a concentrated form of sulforaphanes, a powerful
cancer fighter", say researchers at Johns Hopkins University. "Studies have
shown that eating 2 pounds of broccoli a week - an unappetizing thought to many people -
can provide enough sulforaphanes to lower colon cancer risk by half. Earlier studies
showed that sulforaphanes, found in broccoli, cauliflower and some other vegetables,
prompts the body to make an enzyme that prevents tumors from forming. A 1994 study
indicated that cancer development was reduced by 60 percent to 80 percent in laboratory
animals fed sulforaphanes extracted from broccoli."
IMMUPRO™ contains 300 mg of 4000 ppm sulforaphane standardized extract per
serving. |

Rosmarinic, Carnosic and Ursolic Acids
Rosmarinic, Carnosic and Ursolic acids are found in rosemary leaves. They are
exceptional antioxidants in that they act in a cascading effect. Carnosic acid, starts
this cascade. After carnosic acid finds and neutralizes a free radical, it is transformed
into another molecule, called carnosol, which in turn neutralizes another free radical.
This cascade continues on down through metabolites rosmanol and galdosol in the same way,
ultimately neutralizing a whole host of free radicals. The cascade is probably why
rosemary has a significantly higher antioxidant capability than vitamin E, which must be
recycled after quenching a free radical before it can quench another.
Numerous laboratory studies indicate that rosemary can prevent cancer-causing chemicals
(carcinogens) from binding to and possibly mutating cellular DNA--two of the earliest
steps in cancer development.
IMMUPRO™ contains 300 mg of standardized 7% Rosmarinic, Carnosic and Ursolic acids
per serving. |

Annonaceous Acetogenins
Annonaceous acetogenins are powerful phytochemicals found in the Graviola plant which
has a long and rich rich history of use in herbal medicine as well as a long recorded
indigenous use in the Amazon region.
Many bioactive compounds and phytochemicals have been found in Graviola as scientists
have been studying its properties since the 1940's. Its many uses in natural medicine has
been validated by this scientific research. The earliest studies were between 1941 and
1962. Several studies over the years have demonstrated that leaf, bark, root, stem and
seed extracts of Graviola are antibacterial in vitro against numerous pathogens and that
the bark has antifungal properties. Graviola seeds demonstrated active antiparasitic
properties in a 1991 study, and a leaf extract showed to be active against malaria in two
other studies in 1990 and 1993.
In an 1976 plant screening program by the National Cancer Institute, the leaves and
stem of Graviola showed active cytotoxicity against cancer cells and researchers have been
following up on this research ever since. Much of the research on Graviola focuses on a
novel set of phytochemicals called annonaceous acetogenins. Mode of action studies in
three separate laboratories have recently determined that acetogenins are superb
inhibitors of Complex I in mitochondrial electron transport systems from several organisms
including tumors. Research on various Annona species of plants has yielded many extremely
potent acetogenins. Active compounds from Graviola and other Annona plants have been
submitted to the NIH anti-AIDS screen by Purdue University and their work is continuing
with a number of other active plant species in the Annona plant family. IMMUPRO™
contains 600 mg of Graviola powder.
Three separate research groups have isolated novel compounds in the seeds and leaves of
Graviola which have demonstrated significant anti-tumorous, anticancerous and selective
toxicity against various types of cancer cells, publishing 8 clinical studies on their
findings. One study demonstrated that an acetogenin in Graviola was selectively cytotoxic
to colon adenocarcinoma cells in which it was 10,000 times the potency of adriamycin (a
chemotherapy drug). |

Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins (OPCs)
Considerable research has explored therapeutic applications of oligomeric
proanthocyanidin complexes (OPCs), naturally occurring plant metabolites widely available
in grape seed and skin as well as in various fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, flowers, and
bark. OPCs are primarily known for their antioxidant activity. However, these compounds
have also been reported to demonstrate antibacterial, antiviral, anticarcinogenic,
anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, and vasodilatory actions.
The OPCs contained in IMMUPRO™ are extracted from grape seed and skin. They are of
the highest quality available with 95% OPC content. |
