The gastrointestinal peptides motilin, cholecystokinin and secretin have been shown to increase pancreatic secretions in preruminant calves. The neonatal pancreas shows a much stronger expression of cytokeratins, as compared to adults. Lower enzyme production in the adult bovine pancreas is also evidenced by the diminished production of the enzyme rennet, an enzyme that curdles milk, shown to be significantly lower in adult animals, as compared to a higher prevalence in newborn pancreas. Additionally, calf pancreatic enzymes, such as chymotrypsin, elastase, carboxypeptidases and amylase, from milk-fed calves increased in activity after birth until weaning. The secretory activity of the pancreatic islets has also shown a decline in function with increasing age, as evidenced by fibrosis around the pancreatic islets in aged animals, as compared to islets of younger animals. Amylase output is also markedly higher in younger animals, which was shown to decrease to below 20% in older animals. Since the early 1980’s, Biotics Research has been at the forefront of glandular production, reflecting its commitment to research and innovation. Glandulars from Biotics Research are prepared strictly from BSE-free countries and collected under USDA inspection. Most Biotics Research glandular products incorporate tissues from newborn calves, harvested specifically for Biotics Research, to ensure quality and to provide a reproducible source of the bovine tissues. Inevitably, in certain cases, adult organs must be used, as in the case of ovarian and orchic tissue, which is unobtainable from very young animals. Tissues from newborn animals possess high anabolic activity, and have had minimal exposure to environmental stressors. Atrophy, fatty infiltration, tissue degeneration and the accumulation of oxidative waste products (lipofuscin) are not observed in tissues from newborn calves. In contrast, the usual sources of most commercially available glandular products are glands and organs collected from different cattle carcasses of various ages, obtained from numerous slaughterhouses. Tissues are pooled, and processed with the resulting powdered preparation sold to manufacturers. As a result, physicians and consumers using such products have little or no detailed knowledge of their sources, such as the ages or health of animals harvested, or the degree of exposure to environmental stressors.

Why you may need Bio-Immunozyme ForteTM:  While the period of time from late winter to early spring marks the height of cold and flu season, it is important to maintain optimal immune function year round. The inhibition of viral transmission, and the immune modulating effects of certain nutrients, helps support healthy immune function. Bio-Immunozyme ForteTM is a unique, broad-spectrum formula which may be used in lieu of a general multiple vitamin. Why your healthcare practitioner recommends Bio-Immunozyme ForteTM: Bio-Immunozyme ForteTM consists of a variety of nutrients and factors which support immune function. Vitamin C and bioflavonoids have been well documented in their support of healthy immune function via the immunological activity of leukocytes, interferon, and inflammatory reactions to promote resistance to infection. Neonatal thymus gland concentrate is one of many nutritive components which support neutrophil production and cell mediated immunity. Cell mediated immunity is crucial in the body’s resistance to yeasts, fungi, parasites, bacteria, and most importantly, viruses, because it is a frontline defense that does not require antibody production. Zinc, an essential cofactor for over 70 enzymes, is of vital importance for the highly proliferating cells of the immune system, particularly monocyte and macrophage function, as well as affecting the number and activity of neutrophil granulocytes and natural killer (NK) cells. Vitamin A maintains a distinct action on cellular immunity. In addition to its role in the support of mucosal surfaces, it also aids in maintaining lymphatic tissues, and in antibody production, particularly that of secretory IgA. Another antioxidant with marked effect on immunoactivity is vitamin E, which in addition to its protective effects on gastric mucosa, has been shown to improve immune responsiveness, as evidenced by a decrease in lipidperoxidation, ie. PGE2. Other ingredients in Bio-Immunozyme ForteTM include L-Lysine, Echinacea, Capsicum annum, Chlorophyllins, methyl donors and Lactobacillus acidophilus (DDS-1). As always, you can count on Biotics Research to offer superior nutritional products supplying “The Best of Science and Nature”.  *This item may take longer to ship*

Neutrophil Plus® is a unique combination of vitamin, mineral, glandular and botanical constituents, along with RNA to support normal, healthy phagocytosis. Neutrophils, one of the three types of granulocytic white blood cells (leukocytes), are the hallmark of acute inflammation. They serve as key components in the defense against infection, and are the most abundant of white blood cells, accounting for ~60% of all leukocytes. They are primarily associated with acute bacterial inflammation, and their reaction time is immediate, typically within one hour of tissue injury. Neutrophils are phagocytes, capable of ingesting microorganisms or particles. All leukocytes have a minimal life span, thus have a high turnover rate. As such they are extremely vulnerable to mineral, vitamin and antioxidant deficiencies. The complex interplay between multiple cell types and intercellular messengers makes nutritional status both subtle and far-reaching, particularly when it involves immune activation. Chronic low-grade type infections, associated with neutrophil influx, are characteristic of number of disease processes, ranging from periodontal infections and asthma to cardiovascular disease, pulmonary complications and rheumatoid arthritis. Certain minerals play important roles in supporting optimal immune function. Zinc, copper and calcium are especially important in this role.

*This item is on Backorder* *This item will take a few extra days to ship* Sonne's #9 Intestinal Cleanser is a finely ground powder of imported psyllium seed and its husk. As it contains primarily fiber and no laxative or herbal stimulants, it can be used on a daily basis to assist normal bowel peristalsis. (In contrast, laxatives and herbal preparations stimulate the peristaltic muscles of the bowel, and, if used regularly create a "dependency" and weaken normal colon function.) Psyllium seed has a hydrophilic (water-loving) action that softens hardened mucous lining the bowel wall, facilitating its elimination. Psyllium seed can help you achieve a high fiber diet. Dietary fiber is a necessary component of the diet that is glaringly lacking in the typical western diet. Lack of dietary fiber can cause constipation. Psyllium is a rich source of soluble and insoluble dietary fiber. Taking psyllium on a daily basis can supplement the diet with high-quality fiber, and ensure at least one normal bowel movement every day.

How did Biotics Research become interested in glandulars? The development of Biotics Research glandular products was the offshoot of original research performed by our CDC-licensed, genetics-toxicology testing laboratory in the 1980’s. When Biotics Research developed the first mobile laboratory to respond to environmental contamination requiring a rapid assessment of possible chromosomal damage, fetal calf serum was required to culture human cells. When the supply of fetal calf serum became limited due to increased demand by biotech firms, Biotics Research had to examine newborn calves as an alternative source. Serum isolated from these animals, tested at the National Institutes of Health, matched the quality of fetal calf serum. The use of newborn calves as a source of high quality glandular tissues resulted from this research. Comparison of methods of preparation of glandular productions The aim in preparing glandular products is to preserve traits of the original tissue in as natural a state as possible, while providing long term stability and reasonable shelf life of the final product. Three basic methods are typically employed: lyophilization (freeze drying), solvent extraction or extraction with high concentrations of inorganic ions (salts). Because adult beef tissues are generally heavily infiltrated with connective and fatty tissues, many manufacturers also employ harsh organic solvents to extract fat. Many of these solvents also denature proteins in the process. High concentrated salt solutions exclude nonpolar, more lipophilic materials and membrane associated substances. These types of extraction are generally followed by heating to dry the glandular powder, typically utilizing high temperatures to remove the organic solvents or water, which can denature proteins, including enzymes. Glandular production at Biotics Research Biotics Research relies on low temperature treatment with mild solvents to dehydrate the preparations; conditions known to preserve enzyme, protein and polypeptide factors. Neonatal glands possess very little fatty tissue, which is trimmed by hand. Glandular preparations are then dried at mild temperatures to preserve activities of whole organs and glands. Tableting is accomplished under lower pressures than routinely used in the industry. Biotics Research’s quality control laboratory confirmed that tableting, under lower pressures as done by Biotics Research, does not cause any significant loss of fragile coenzyme and vitamin activities. Laboratory Assessment of Cytozyme-THYTM In promoting T cell maturation, thymosin binds to immature T cells, altering their surface properties so they form “rosettes” in vitro. Cytozyme-THYTM was assayed using a T cell rosette formation assay based on mouse peripheral blood lymphocytes (the Wara Ammann E Rosette bioassay) by an independent laboratory. Cytozyme-THYTM increased T cell rosette formation approximately 2-fold greater than that obtained by a competitor’s thymus glandular.
