Glutathione is an antioxidant your cells make for themselves, and it is central to how the body handles oxidative stress. It is built from three amino acids: cysteine, glutamate and glycine. Cysteine is the scarcest of the three, which is why Immunocal supplies it in a stable, bonded form.
Glutathione is often called the body’s master antioxidant. It helps neutralize free radicals, supports the body’s natural detoxification processes and helps maintain normal immune function. Because the body makes it on demand, it depends on having enough of the building blocks, especially cysteine.
A glutathione precursor is a nutrient the body uses to make its own glutathione. Precursors focus on cysteine, the building block in shortest supply. Immunocal is a glutathione precursor: it supplies bonded cysteine rather than glutathione itself, and your cells do the rest.
The body makes glutathione itself, so the most direct approach is to give it the building blocks it needs, especially cysteine. Protein foods rich in sulfur amino acids, such as whey, eggs and poultry, contribute, along with good sleep, regular exercise and moderate alcohol. A glutathione precursor such as Immunocal supplies bonded cysteine in a form designed to stay intact.
Glutathione swallowed whole is largely broken down during digestion, so much of it never reaches your cells. That is why many people choose a precursor instead: it supplies cysteine, the building block in shortest supply, and lets the body make its own glutathione where it is needed.
Cysteine is the limiting building block of glutathione. The body usually has enough glutamate and glycine, so the amount of cysteine available sets how much glutathione it can make. Free cysteine is fragile and easily damaged by heat and processing, which is why Immunocal supplies it in bonded form, within a whey protein isolate.
Immunocal is a patented whey protein isolate made by Immunotec. It supplies bonded cysteine, the building block the body uses to make its own glutathione. A box holds 30 single-serve pouches, one per day, and the powder is fat-free and sugar-free.
Immunocal does not contain glutathione. It provides bonded cysteine, which the body releases during digestion and uses inside the cells to produce its own glutathione. In this way it supports the body’s natural antioxidant defenses and immune health.
Immunocal itself doesn’t work as an antioxidant. Instead, it gives your body what it needs to make glutathione, which then serves as the master antioxidant to help protect your cells. Learn more about Immunocal.
No. Immunocal is a whey protein isolate, but it is made with a patented process that keeps its fragile bonded cysteine intact. Ordinary processing can destroy this cysteine. That is what makes Immunocal a glutathione precursor rather than a general protein supplement.
Undenatured means the protein keeps its natural structure. Heat, acidity and high-speed blending can unfold, or denature, proteins and break the delicate bonds that hold cysteine together. Immunocal’s patented preparation is designed to preserve that structure, which is why it should be mixed gently into a cold drink, never a hot one.
Empty one pouch into water or another cold drink and mix gently. Avoid blending at high speed or adding it to anything hot, because heat and shear damage the protein structure the product depends on. Follow the directions on the current label on the product page.
There is no fixed timeline, and experiences vary from person to person. Immunocal supports processes that happen gradually inside the body, so it is designed for steady daily use. Judge it over weeks and months of consistent use rather than days.
Immunocal is a milk-derived whey protein isolate, and it is generally tolerated by people who avoid lactose. Anyone with a milk protein allergy should not take it. If you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication or under medical care, check with your healthcare provider first, and always read the current label.
Immunotec is a Canadian company that develops nutritional supplements, with Immunocal as its flagship product. Its products are sold through independent consultants such as Andre and Tami Popa. My Perfect Body is an independent consultant website, not an official Immunotec website.
Vitamin D contributes to the normal absorption and use of calcium, so taking them together makes more of the calcium usable. Calcium is needed for the maintenance of normal bones and teeth throughout adult life. See Calcium-D From Milk.
Yes. Seren-T uses alpha-casozepine, a milk peptide studied for relaxation, and magnesium glycinate instead of melatonin. If you prefer melatonin, Sleep Spray combines it with valerian root.
An adaptogen is a plant traditionally used to help the body keep its balance under everyday pressure. Rhodiola, ashwagandha and ginseng are the best-known examples. Rhodiola leads the formula in K-21+ Sugar Free.
