How Defend Works

How Defend works

Research completed with the active ingredient in DEFEND™ has shown that it:

-Supports the mucosal immune system, an important first line of defense against invaders

-Activates immune cells such as T-lymphocytes, B-cells, and natural killer (NK) cells as well as produces an anti-inflammatory effect.

% Activated NK Cells

Natural killer (NK) cells help protect the body from invaders.  The figure below demonstrates how well EpiCor® activates NK cells for specific markers called CD69 and CD25.

This evidence shows that EpiCor®, the active ingredient in DEFEND™, supports the body’s innate immune system, the first line of defense against invading pathogens.
