How It Works
Conventional multi-vitamins no longer provide the essentials for
optimum body defense and supplementation. More heavy exercise, human
interaction and international travel subjects our immune systems to
greater stress. Over tilling has stripped the minerals from our soil
and industrial chemicals find their way into our bodies on a daily
basis.
Defender15™ is today's answer to daily body defense that has been
specifically developed with Methiserimmune TM to support our natural
immune system through our digestive track 3 different ways, replace
critical minerals that are now absent in our food that help us fight
all common diseases and neutralize the toxins we ingest daily that
promote premature aging with potent anti-oxidants.
Defender15™ is a daily, aggressive, high intensity, immune boosting
multi-vitamin developed for today's active male and is ideal for the
serious athlete.
Among the many vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants and natural
supplements we packed into Defender15™, below are just a sampling of
the amazing attributes Defender15™ provides for your bodys daily
defense.

Stimulating Immune Cells
Just recently, doctors interviewed on NBC
recommended that everybody start taking supplements of Garlic and
EGG (Green Tea Leaf Extract) to boost their immune systems for the
upcoming flu season.
Garlic stimulates immune cells, according to Dr.
Benjamin Lau, physician and author of the book, Garlic for Health.
"Garlic apparently stimulates the body's immune system, particularly
enhancing the macrophages and lymphocytes, which destroy cancer
cells," Dr. Lau said.
"We are understandably excited to see that a
natural substance can have such impact on cancer prevention," he
said. The Loma Linda University medical researcher performed a
number of experiments using an garlic product and concluded that it
prevents and suppresses cancer.
A group of researchers at UCLA just recently used
an aged garlic extract to treat melanoma, a skin cancer that is
spreading at alarming rates in the U.S. They also concluded that
garlic suppressed the growth of cancerous cells.
Green tea extract has become popular because of
its many health benefits and its use in the prevention and treatment
of a wide range of diseases. Surveys conducted in Japan show that
people who consumed green tea had much lower incidence of stomach,
liver, pancreatic, breast, lung, esophageal and skin cancers. In
some studies, green tea prevented cancer altogether in animals
genetically bred to develop cancer.
Green tea may prevent cancer in the
following ways:Ý
- Neutralizing cancer-causing agents
- Protecting cells against mutation from cancer causing agents
- Protecting against free radical damage
- Protecting against cellular damage from ionizing radiation
Green tea may protect against
cardiovascular diseases by:Ý
- Inhibiting abnormal clotting inside vessels
- Reducing total cholesterol and elevation of HDL cholesterol
- Reducing high blood pressure by inhibiting angiotensin-converting
enzyme
- Inhibiting oxidation of LDL cholesterol in the lining of the
arterial wall
- Green tea has also demonstrated an ability to reduce blood glucose
levels, inhibit bacteria and viruses, and act as a powerful
antioxidant.

Cysteine
Cysteine helps build immune stimulants (the vitaletheine modulators)
and immune system protectors (metallothionine and glutathione). It
is a powerful antioxidant, a premier antitoxin and immune support
substance, and is found naturally in foods. It is a precursor for
glutathione, along with glutamine and glycine, an important
antioxidant that protects cells against oxidative stress. In
addition to maintaining intracellular glutathione levels, cysteine
supplementation has been shown to suppress HIV
replication, to be protective against cell damage caused by
chemotherapy and radiation therapy, to be immune enhancing, to
protect against toxins as acetamenaphen and other drugs, mercury,
lead, and others, and is mucolytic, that is, it breaks up mucus seen
in bronchopulmonary disease as cystic fibrosis, chronic bronchitis,
asthma, and pneumonia.
It is known and marketed as an "anti-amalgam" medicine, because it
helps remove mercury from the body. It also generally improves the
body's immune system, making it better able to fight off disease.
Colostrum
Colostrum is the pre-milk fluid produced from the mother's mammary
glands during the first 72 hours after birth. Colostrum provides
life-supporting immune and growth factors that insure the health and
vitality of the newborn.
After reviewing many years of scientific and medical research bovine
(cow's) colostrum is one of the most important health-giving,
disease-fighting and anti-aging superfoods ever discovered. And,
bovine colostrum is remarkably compatible for human consumption.
The life-supporting power of colostrum, backed by science- is
proving to be so beneficial to human health, even the main stream
medical community is finally beginning to stand up and take notice.
Medical professionals who are recommending this all-natural
substance, understand it is a naturally perfect combination of
immune factors, growth factors, and other components - all designed
to encourage a vibrant, healthy body.
Acidophilus (Probiotic)
Although the friendly bacteria are your first lines of defense
against disease, your immune system has the heavy responsibility of
keeping you well. Your immune system identifies foreign intruders
that have gotten past the friendly bacteria, and produces antibodies
to conquer these invaders.
In addition, scavenger cells called macrophages gobble up invaders,
mutant cells, metabolic trash, and the harmful chemicals that enter
your body through the water you drink, the food you eat, and the air
you breathe.
Once, the main functions of your immune system were the production
of antibodies against disease; the destruction of dangerous
bacterial, fungal, and viral invaders; and the elimination of mutant
cells that have the potential to turn cancerous. Now, the immune
systemís workload is further complicated by the need to cleanse the
body of the increasing number of extraneous pollutants and
contaminants found in the environment and the food chain. Overloaded
with work, the immune system needs all the help it can get from your
friendly bacteria. How? When disease-causing aliens are able to
permeate the intestinal walls and enter the bloodstream, the immune
system must spring into action. As long as strong colonies of
friendly bacteria line the intestinal tract in full force, these
harmful microorganisms will not be able to get through, thus
lightening the already heavy workload of the immune system.
We can strengthen the immune system's resistance to infection by
taking supplements of Lactobacillus acidophilus "friendly" bacteria
that normally live in the human gastrointestinal (G.I.) tract.
Lactobacillus attaches itself mainly in the upper G.I. tract (small
intestine); Research shows that these friendly bacteria strengthen
the ability of the immune cells surrounding the G.I. tract to defend
the body against toxins, bacteria and allergens. It is thought that
the G.I. tract's immune cells, a type of lymphocyte, in turn signal
immune cells elsewhere in the body to increase or decrease
activity.
Tests on the effects of oral supplements of friendly bacteria (acidophillus)
conducted in the departments of immunology and biochemistry at the
University of Paris showed an 80% increase in the ability of white
blood cells to attack and destroy hostile microorganisms.
The current study breaks new ground because it shows that
lactobacillus acidophilus supplements caused sustained immunological
protection-- stimulating immune cells that were outside the G.I.
tract, i.e. white cells in the blood.
Evidence of the health benefits of lactobacillus acidophilus and
other probiotics ‚ also known as "friendly bacteria" ‚ is
impressive. Many studies have investigated the role of various
strains of bacteria in preventing and treating many illnesses
including cancer. Last year the American Journal of Gastroenterology
published an entire supplemental issue dedicated to the use of
probiotics in disease treatment. A recent hospital study on the
prevention of gastrointestinal infections suggests that probiotics
are also effective against viral infections. Minerals
Malnutrition is on the rise in our society. Since most people are
not educated in nutrition, they are malnourished and don't even know
it. The US Department of Agriculture did a survey of over 20,000
people and found only 10% (or 1 out of 10) got even the minimum RDA
for the seven essential nutrients. Several factors play a part in
this epidemic of malnutrition, poor food consumption, eating too
fast, fried foods, highly processed ingredients, and food full of
sugar are chiefly to blame.
Since our fruits and vegetables come from depleted soils, it is a
challenge to get all our vitamins and minerals from even properly
grown foods. The Encyclopedia Of World Problems and Human Potential
states that in productivity, approximately one-third of the world's
crop land had fallen dramatically by the 1980's. One example is
spinach, it has only two percent of the mineral content of iron that
it had 60 years ago. The end result is that the foods we consume to
give us nutrition are not doing the job they were meant to do. Even
though we may be eating all of the necessary foods required for
health; we may still be suffering from malnutrition.

Coenzyme Q10
Heart disease. Cancer. AIDS. As unbelievable as it might sound, each
of these deadly diseases often responds to a coenzyme Q10, a little
known nutrient that can make a big difference in your health.
Granted, such "cure all" statements leave people wondering whether
CoQ10 is just the latest panacea of the month. Rest assured: the
benefits of this nutrient are well documented in the medical
journals. It's one of the most frequently prescribed heart "drugs"
in Japan and widely used in Europe-and one company even owns the
patent for the CoQ10 treatment of AIDS.
CoQ10 was discovered in 1957-relatively late as vitamins discoveries
go-by Frederick Crane, Ph.D., now at Purdue University in Indiana.
Four years later, Peter D. Mitchell, Ph.D., of the University of
Edinburgh, figured out how CoQ10 produces energy at the cellular
level and, in 1978, won the Nobel Prize for chemistry for this
discovery.
CoQ10 and Cancer
Although CoQ10 is best documented in the treatment of heart failure,
two recent medical journal articles suggest tremendous promise in
the treatment of cancer. In Biochemical and
Biophysical Research Communications (April 15, 1993;192:241-5),
Folkers described 10 cancer patients given CoQ10 for heart failure.
One of the patients, a 48-year-old man diagnosed in 1977 with
inoperable lung cancer, has been not had any signs of either cancer
and heart failure symptoms while taking CoQ10 for 17 years!
Knud Lockwood, M.D., a cancer specialist in Copenhagen, Denmark,
recently described his treatment of 32 "high-risk" cancer patients
with antioxidant vitamins, essential fatty acids, and CoQ10. "No
patient died and all expressed a feeling of well-being," he wrote in
Biochemical and Biophysical Research
Communications (March 30, 1994;199:1504-8). "These clinical
results are remarkable since about 4 deaths would have been
expected. Now, after 24 months, all still survive; about 6 deaths
would have been expected."
CoQ10 and AIDS
One of the most remarkable findings was that CoQ10 supplementation
could extend the lifespan of patients with acquired immune
deficiency syndrome (AIDS). In 1986, Folkers and Per Langsjoen began
treating seven patients with HIV or AIDS. "The treatment was very
encouraging and at times even striking," Folkers wrote in
Biochemical and Biophysical Research
Communications (June 16, 1988;153:888-96). "All 7 patients (3
AIDS, 4 ARC) felt better soon after starting on CoQ10," wrote
Folkers.
It's with the treatment of AIDS that the medical story of CoQ10
turns into one of economic intrigue. The University of Texas, where
the AIDS/CoQ10 research was conducted, applied for a "use-patent"
for the treatment of AIDS. The patent (#1,011,858), one of several
for CoQ10 and immune function, was granted on April 30, 1991. The
use-patent gives the owner full patent rights to the nutrient when
it's prescribed for the treatment of AIDS.
In 1993, the university sold the use-patient to James Ryan, an
investment banker and one of the patients in Folkers' original
cardiomyopathy study. Ryan, head of Ryan Pharmaceuticals, paid
several hundred thousand dollars for the use patent, then sold it
for an estimated $2 million to Receptagen, a U.S./Canadian
biotechnology firm. The company plans to market prescription
versions of CoQ10 for the treatment of AIDS sometime in the next two
years.

Antioxidants
Oxidant chemicals, are also called free radicals. These free radicals
damage the DNA that makes up our genes, those parts of the cell that
control its reproduction. Lesions in DNA give rise to mutations when
the cell divides, and these mutations can lead to tumors.
Anti-Oxidants are those substances that act against oxidants to
minimize the damage made by them.
Defender15™ incorporates the most potent antioxidant vitamins,
minerals , herbs and enzymes in its formula.
