Health and Active Immune SupportTHE IMMUNE SYSTEM is the "Homeland Defense’ against foreign attack of living organisms. IMMUNE SYSTEM DISORDERS: Active Immune Support extract contains sterols and sterolins which may modulate the function of T-cells. They are the white blood cells that attack viruses and bacteria living inside cells. Antioxidants feature largely in the immune system to protect cells from the ravages of free radicals while other compounds function as regulators. Regulation involves stimulation when required through the production of a wide range of cytokines. Some compounds both stimulate and support the immune system. Active Immune Support is designed to help this regulation with natural ingredients including polyphenols, polysaccarides, metabolites and plant sterols used to assist in the normalization and regulation process as well as to support the immune system. The purpose of fruit and fruit juice is for food with some nutritional value. The POWER of Active Immune Support is that it is herbal, we use the stems stalks & the roots. The end result is a formula that helps to stimulate and modulate the immune system. WHAT IS THE MEDICINAL HISTORY OF THE MUSA PLANT? The musa plant, and its parts, have been prescribed in folk medicine for a wide variety of health issues, mainly in tropical countries. Central America 1. Reduce congestion and provide relief during asthmatic attacks. India The tree is worshiped during certain times of the year and it’s fruit, leafs and stems are all said to have pure nutritional and medicinal values for healing wounds and ulcers. The banana is nick-named "kalpatharu" in India, since all its parts, plant, leaves, pseudostems and flower buds - have many uses for the health of human beings. in particular, the pseudostem (This Immune Support extract) is used for ulcer relief, cholera, jaundice, asthma, kidney stones and nervous disorders. The leaves are used for eye diseases, wounds and cuts. The flower reduces heavy bleeding during menstruation, diabetes and earache, The fruit is used for diarrhea, indigestion and accumulation of acid in the body. South America The therapeutic effect of musa fruit is well established in folk medicine, particularly in regard to the treatment of diarrhea and dysentery, as well as the healing of intestinal lesions in colitis. The plantain has been recognized as an astringent, demulcent, emollient, cooling, vulnerary, expectorant, anti-microbial, anti-viral, anti-toxin and as a diuretic. The Lancet publication of June 10, 1916 reported that a government official was cured of a venomous snake bite after both ingesting the plantain stem juice and also applying it to the wound. Traditionally, musa plants have been used to lower blood sugar and as a mouthwash to treat sores and toothache. Plantain teas were made from the leaves and used to treat lung disorders and stomach problems. WHAT OTHER MEDICAL CONDITIONS? Chemotherapy The compounds in the extract of the plantain sap may also protect the gastrointestinal lining from physical trauma, such as that induced by chemotherapy. Many users of this Immune Support extract have reported a positive complementary effect as a result of taking this Immune Support extract while undergoing chemotherapy and radiation therapies. Ingredients in this Immune Support extract have been researched to show a calming and normalizing effect on the GI tract. Certain phytoalexins of the musa plant stem have been studied to show inhibitory activity on the growth of bacteria and fungus. This Immune Support extract is a natural product and is not fortified with any concentrated levels of antioxidants or other extracted compounds that may conflict with chemotherapy treatments. References: Gastro-Intestinal The effects of Musa Paradisiaca (a component of Active Immune Support) has
been studied in relation to Gastric mucosal shedding. These studies have shown
that
the musa treatment increased the gastric mucosal resistance and showed a decrease
in gastric juice DNA, which was measured to serve as an index of the rate of
mucosal shedding. increased cellular mucus may be a factor for increased
mucosal resistance. In conclusion, the results of the present study tend to confirm
that the musa plant strengthens mucosal resistance and promotes the healing
of ulcers. Furthermore, the antiulcerogenic activity of the unripe plantain was found to be antiulcerogenic against aspirin induced ulcers in laboratory rats. It was also effective as a prophylactic treatment
and in healing ulcers already induced by aspirin. Additionally, certain phytoalexins of the musa plant stem have been studied in Spain to show inhibitory activity on the growth of bacteria and fungus. 5.

Kidney stones are ten times as common today as they were at the turn of the century. A prevalent theory for the rise in this country is due to the increased levels of consumed animal protein versus plant protein in the average American diet. The juice of the stem of the musa plant (the ingredients in Active Immune Support) was found to be effective in 'reducing the formation and prevention of kidney stones. 6.

After decades of Western Medicine, whereby we treat disease with single molecules derived either synthetically or from naturally occurring sources, we have learned to our chagrin that the downside effects cannot be tolerated much longer. The short-term benefits of the single molecule approach to medication are rapidly eroding through adaptation of mutating pathogens and ever- increasing drug interactions. Furthermore, situations associated with prescription drugs are the third leading cause of death in the United States. The scientific realization that single molecules might be disruptive in a natural system of interdependent multi-component chemistry, is gaining momentum among conscientious researchers. Additionally, the healthy functioning of organs such as the liver and kidneys may depend upon encountering molecular concentrations of digestible substances within adaptable limits. It may well be that organ stress relates to the susceptibility of disease. The future of safe and reliable medicines will depend upon a scientific reversal to past botanical therapies. Regulatory resistance to the clinical testing of multi-component candidate drugs as distinct from single molecule drugs is loosening up. The term “drug” is a confusing and complex one, since it refers to all substances used or intended for use in the treatment of disease. Should someone claim that “cherries” cure rheumatoid arthritis and sell them for that purpose, then those cherries are categorized as “illegal drugs” until such time as the FDA approves their use in that regard. Ironically, illegal drugs include all unapproved substances from soup to nuts, where the provider claims to treat any disease by that means. Strangely, our hypothetical “cherries” would be classified alongside cocaine and heroin in the illegal category and subject to criminal prosecution. Our internal organs are designed for or have adapted to the processing of food and oxygen. Synthetic medicines enter our bodies in the guise of food. Any deviation from the form or substance of natural food might be expected to cause some degree of stress in the organs involved. Logically, it can be assumed that the more a specific medication resembles normal food, the more efficient should be it's processing. Should the single molecules encountered in synthetic and natural source derived drugs be found in whole foods alongside many other multi-components, then the resulting bio-processing might be more efficient and less stressful. CellQuest™ is leading the necessary transition from single molecule medicines to the many advantages of the multi-component system, based upon totally natural substances. The Musa plants cultivated in the Dominican Republic by CellQuest™. are ideal for this purpose and are organically farmed using natural elicitors and bio-botanical techniques to ensure consistent phytochemical composition in the end product. The proprietary process involves the minimization of diurnal circadian variations in plant chemistry. The transition to botanical therapies will be the way of the future and key to safe and efficacious health products. Western Medicine objections to the dedicated use of plants and herbs, related to significant variations in plant composition and consistency will be overcome by diligent scientific efforts.
