Clinically tested, Optimune is a safe, natural way to bolster lean muscle mass. High biological value whey protein Optimune is a concentrated source of protein free of excess calories. The biological value of protein is the estimated amount of nitrogen replaceable by 100 grams of protein. Whey protein scores 104, the highest of any known protein. It is also among the highest sources of branched chain amino acids (22%), an important source of energy for muscle during stress. Chronic infection or trauma caused by treatments such as chemotherapy increase your need for protein supplementation. Extra protein supports protein turnover and helps replenish lost muscle. Glutalthione Production Glutathione is the most potent antioxidant in the body. Compared with other high biological value proteins, whey protein has higher concentrations of the amino acids that are essential for glutathione production. The specially processed whey in Optimune contains undenatured proteins especially rich in cysteine and glutamate. Both amino acids serve as precursors for glutathione formation. Infection, trauma and major surgery can depress levels of glutathione and cause your muscles to release their store of glutamine and cysteine. This can lead to the loss of lean muscle mass. Optimune provides the precursors necessary for glutathione formation and can help protect against the loss of lean muscle. Active Immunoglobulins Activity of immunoglobulins, also known as antibodies, refers to their ability to bind to antigens that are capable of producing sickness. Optimune is manufactured using a patented process that preserves the activity of the natural antibodies found in cow¹s milk. These active antibodies, which are also found in colostrum, are similar to human antibodies. They can bolster a poorly functioning immune system by supplementing your body¹s own antibodies. The active immunoglobulin content in Optimune is approximately two to four times as high as the Ig content in most other whey protein supplements, and eight times as high as the immunoglobulin content in pasteurized milk. % of Protein IgG1 -7.36% IgG2 - 0.44% IgM - 1.46% IgA - 0.73% Total Ig Content - 9.99% Percentages based on 100 grams of protein The Key Ingredient: PROMUNE™ Whey protein is processed in a variety of ways. At OPTIM NUTRITION, we have developed a patented process that preserves a high level of active immunoglobulins and undenatured proteins. This makes Promune different from milk, ordinary whey protein, or colostrum. The New Zealand dairy herds used by Optim Nutrition are not treated with any hormones, nor are they hyperimmunized. These herds are only one of two that produce sufficient quantities of antibodies in their milk to be clinically effective. Promune offers you the benefits of colostrum and the benefits of whey protein at the same time - and for a much more reasonable price Price $59.95 for 1000 grams.
