What is the
difference between a whey protein concentrate (WPC) and an isolate (WPI)?
A WPC is 80% protein, with approx. 6% fat. A WPI is 90% protein, with
approx. 1% fat. A full detailed explaination of traditional commercial whey
protein manufacturing can be found in David Marshall's What
is Whey?
What is the
best way to store ImmunePro Rx™?
In a cool, dry location. Refrigeration is acceptable.
What is the
best solution to mix it in and why?
Purified or any good drinking water, milk, semi-liquid dairy product or
dairy substitute is the best liquid to thoroughly mix ImmunePro Rx™. Use
a sealable container to shake it or a manual eggbeater. Do not use an electric
blender. Battery powered mixers are acceptable. The whey proteins are easily
denatured through heat and pH change. Mixing the whey protein with any other
types of food can induce a pH change and slow the transit time in the stomach
through its digestive response to the solid food. Liquids that are not neutral
in their pH can also denature the proteins, for example: most fruit juices,
coffee, and tea. By following the above guide the uptake of the undenatured
protein fractions in the upper small intestine is optimized. A small amount of
sweetener is acceptable if necessary for palatability. The initial uptake of
the undenatured proteins takes place in the mouth. Drink slowly and let it
circulate in the mouth for several seconds (15+) before swallowing.
How much should
one take and how often?
Servings can vary greatly for each individual. For many individuals it can be up
to 5 grams to 10 grams, one, two, three or more times per day. If you are
unaccustomed to this whey protein concentrate, and there's a possibility you
may be sensitive, we suggest that you begin with one measuring teaspoon
(approx. 1.5 grams) or less per day AM. Ingest on an empty stomach and no
food afterwards for 20 minutes. Ramping up slowly is advisable to avoid
possible uncomfortable responses. It is acceptable to alternate days of use
for sensitive individuals. Refer to our testimonials
page for more feedback. You may want to consult with your health care
professional regarding dosage.
Possible Whey
Protein Reactions:
Milk Allergies: People with this condition are aware of it. A specific allergy
to milk proteins, pasteurized dairy is the most allergenic, can make dairy
consumption a problem. If you can drink raw or pasteurized milk, but can not
handle this whey protein, then the problem is elsewhere. True lactose
intolerance presents itself as diarrhea and is rarely a problem. Lactose
content is 0.3g per 5 grams. For sensitive individuals the use of milk
digestant that contains lactase and renin can be helpful as well as a 7 day
previous and concurrent use of a quality probiotic.
ImmunePro
Rx™ per 10 grams contains: Lactoferrin 285
mg, Immunoglobulins 1.3 grams,
Bovine Serum Albumin 210 mg and a
broad spectrum of Active Peptides (specialized paired amino acids that
exhibit a beneficial information transfer factor effect on the immune system
as well as boosting intracellular Glutathione)
The potent combination of these immune boosting protein fractions may cause
some initial uncomfortable responses.
Glutathione:
This whey protein concentrate contains exceptional amounts of the precursors
required for Glutathione production. This is one of the many reasons this
product is so effective. The production of usable Glutathione in the cell has
several actions. It may liberate years worth of stored cell waste products
into the bloodstream. Additionally it is thought to help regulate dysfunction
in several different immune cells that has made them ineffective at locating
and killing pathogens.
