They respond more quickly than the adaptive immune system comprised of B cells and T cells. Once activated, natural killer cell activity peaks in as quickly as several hours, providing rapid support and wide-range immune defense. EpiCor® is a fermentate of Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing various bioactive metabolites. These nutrient metabolites are produced in a specialized fermentation process and support immune cell production. In one cellular study, EpiCor® promoted natural killer cell activation, as well as that of B cells and T cells. In two randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials, EpiCor® provided statistically significant support for upper respiratory tract health and overall immune health.\u003cbr\u003eA separate open label, in-house trial indicated a strong potential for EpiCor® supplementation to enhance secretory IgA levels after 30 days. These various actions demonstrate the ability of EpiCor® to address both innate and adaptive immune responses. NAC (n-acetyl-l-cysteine) promotes endogenous glutathione production for antioxidant protection and provides lung defense mechanisms for healthy respiratory function. In a randomized double-blind trial involving mostly older individuals, NAC showed support for respiratory health. Quercetin and elderberry provide flavonoids that offer additional support for immune and respiratory function while vitamin C, vitamin D and zinc play important roles in immune cell activation.*\u003cbr\u003e• Helps support immune health*\u003cbr\u003e• Maintains upper respiratory health*\u003cbr\u003e• Made with hypoallergenic ingredients\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pura Vida Wellness Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67704517460159,"sku":null,"price":79.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0762\/2531\/5007\/files\/1000_front_623bcba7-24ac-43a2-8a8d-8ca4e0e17d8b.png?v=1792496005","url":"https:\/\/www.puravidawellnesscompany.com\/products\/pure-encapsulations-puredefense-w-nac-120-capsules","provider":"Pura Vida Wellness Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
