Immunity Take Care
FAQ's
Q: What is Immunity Take Care designed to do for me and my family?
A: Immunity Take Care is designed to enhance and provide for a more resilient state of
the immune system which is key to maintaining good health.
Q: Is Immunity Take Care a drug?
A: No. It is neither an OTC or prescription drug. New Chapter's Immunity
Take Care is a dietary
supplement. A type of food that you can take daily to maintain good health
for you and your family. Because of Immunity Take Care's regulatory classification, we
are able to tell you about its unique benefits to the structure and function
of your body. And, because of its breakthrough dose-to-dose reliability, we
are able to illustrate, in detail, how the product's blocking "mechanism of
action" works within your body to deliver these benefits.
Q: How can you claim that Immunity Take Care blocks up to 100% of virus entry and
hence replication?
A: Laboratory studies conducted by an experienced team of virologists,
biochemists and microbiologists show that when viruses are combined with
Immunity Take Care, it is possible to inhibit virus entry into host cells by up to
100%. Without the ability to enter host cells, viruses cannot replicate. The
researchers further established the concentration necessary to achieve this
effect and applied this information when determining the suggested serving
size of Immunity Take Care .
Q: How does Immunity Take Care block viruses?
A: Immunity Take Care contains optimized levels of bioactives shown in
laboratory studies to bind to specific surface proteins on viruses required
for host cell attachment and entry. When these proteins are coated with
Immunity Take Care bioactives, the viruses are blocked from entering human cells and
multiplying. Further studies using cutting edge technology known as DART
(Direct Analysis in Real Time) have allowed researchers to identify the
specific bioactives involved in this virus blocking action. These active
chemistries are part of a class of plant compounds known as flavonoids, and
optimized and consistent amounts are found in every serving of Immunity Take
Care.
Q: How does Immunity Take Care differ from other commercially available elderberry
extracts?
A: The elderberry extract in Immunity Take Care is created using a proprietary
extraction process which employs supercritical carbon dioxide extraction and
affinity chromatography. This innovative technology allows for the
production of a complex and complete herbal extract with over 1,000 natural
chemistries represented, including optimized quantities of the bioactives
identified as being responsible for elderberry’s virus blocking action.
Other commercially available elderberry extracts can have many fewer
bioactives and thus can be deficient in those critical for virus blocking.
Additionally, the unique extraction process utilized for the production of
NewChapter's Immunity Take Care allows, for the first time, the production of an herbal extract
that is consistent from batch-to-batch and dose-to-dose. Analysis of other
commercially available elderberry extracts shows a wide variation of bioactives represented, even from lozenges sampled from the same bottle.
Q: Dose-to-dose consistency had never been fully achieved before in the
herbal industry. How did the makers of Immunity Take Care do it?
A: First, a fingerprint of the desired extract, one with optimized levels of
the active virus blocking bioactives, had to be created. This was only
possible through use of a supercritical carbon dioxide and affinity
chromatography extraction process and the use of a cutting edge technology
known as DART (Direct Analysis in Real Time) to verify the chemical
composition. The extraction process was then optimized to generate the
defined fingerprint every time, yielding for the first time a dose-reliable
product.
Q: Does Immunity Take Care contain isolated plant constituents?
A: No, it is a whole herb/fruit extract delivering more than 1,000
constituents present in whole elderberry. Other commercially available
elderberry extracts can contain many fewer constituents and thus fail to
deliver the full potential therapeutic intelligence of this herb.
Q: How quickly does Immunity Take Care start working?
A: A human bioavailability study with Immunity Take Care indicates that the virus
blocking class of bioactives are taken up into the bloodstream within
minutes.
Q: Does Immunity Take Care block entry of all viruses?
A: No. The blocking action of NewChapter's Immunity Take Care was originally discovered to block
"enveloped" viruses (such as influenza). Enveloped viruses are those which
have a coat (envelope) made up of lipids, phospholipids and proteins with
specific sugars attached to them on their outer surface. The bioactives in
Immunity Take Care , work by binding to these coat molecules with sugars, and, as a
result block the ability of the viruses to enter host cells.
Q: Is the research on Immunity Take Care published?
A: Not yet. Study findings have been summarized and these scientific
overviews have been submitted to several major professional journals and are
undergoing the customary "peer review" process prior to publication.
Q: Have human clinical trials being conducted on Immunity Take Care ?
A: A human pharmacokinetic trial examining the bioavailablity of the
bioactives in Immunity Take Care has been conducted. Additionally, a human clinical
trial examining NewChapter's Immunity Take Care's efficacy is being conducted by a major medical
institution in Asia.
Q: What is the suggested use for Immunity Take Care ?
A: Take one lozenge daily to help maintain healthy immune cells and to
protect against enveloped viruses. If enhanced defense is desired, take two
lozenges daily.
Q: How does Immunity Take Care taste?
A: Immunity Take Care is a delicious all natural blueberry-flavored lozenge.
Q: Is Immunity Take Care safe to take every day?
A: Yes. In-vitro studies show that the extract in Immunity Take Care has an action
selective to viruses and does not demonstrate toxic effects on healthy
cells. In fact, elderberry has been used for centuries as a tonic for upper
respiratory maladies and is consumed daily in many European countries to
promote immune health.
Q: Are there any known side effects or drug interactions for Immunity Take Care
?
A: No, none that have been identified.
Q: Is Immunity Take Care safe for pregnant women, nursing women and children?
A: Yes. But as with any dietary supplement, we recommend that a pregnant
woman advise her health care practitioner of the use of Immunity Take Care .
Q: What is cyclodextrin and why is it in Immunity Take Care ?
A: Cyclodextrin is a carbohydrate compound derived from starches. It
possesses a unique ability to bind to fat-soluble compounds and make them
more water-soluble. It also serves to bind the ingredients in Immunity Take
Care together to form the quick dissolve lozenge. And it enhances absorption of
the fat-soluble bioactives present in the extract.
Q: Does Immunity Take Care contain any animal products? Is it suitable for
vegetarians?
A: Immunity Take Care does not contain any animal products and is fully suitable for
vegetarians.
