What
is AHCC?
AHCC is the acronym for “Active
Hexose Correlated Compound.” AHCC is clinically proven as
an effective immune booster and utilizes an organic blend
of medicinal mushrooms including Shitake, all grown in Japan.*
AHCC has been shown to significantly increase immune response*
by promoting enhanced macrophage and T-cell activity* and
maintaining peak Natural Killer (NK) cell function.* With
published research demonstrating AHCC’s ability to increase
quality of life parameters for people with health challenges,
it is no wonder over 700 hospitals and medical centers worldwide
recommend AHCC as part of an ongoing immune enhancement program.*
What
makes Pure Prescriptions AHCC different?
The Pure brand stands apart by
using 1,000 mg of proprietary AHCC per serving. For increased
health benefit and value, vitamin C and trace minerals are
included, which are necessary for energy production, protein
synthesis and enzyme systems required by the immune system. Additionally, we use a healthy vegetarian encapsulation process, not a cheaper bovine derived gelatin method.
Is
AHCC Safe?
Based on over 20 published studies and the clinical experience
of hundreds of hospitals and tens of thousands of consumers,
AHCC is shown to be safe. In the studies in which AHCC was
given to people with cancer, no side effects or drug interactions
were observed.
What are the physiological effects of AHCC?
Human clinical research suggests
that AHCC may have the following effects on the human immune
system function:
- Increases NK (natural killer) cell activity
- Increase cytokine (IL-2 and IL-12) production
- Increase CD4 + helper cells
Are NK cells important? You bet!
The
immune system is an intricate network of specialized tissues,
organs, cells, and chemicals. The lymph nodes, spleen, bone
marrow, thymus gland, and tonsils all play a role, as do lymphocytes
(specialized white blood cells), antibodies, and interferon.
One key immune cell-the NK (natural killer) cell plays a very
critical and highly specialized role to "seek and destroy"
threatening particles.
NK (natural killer) cells are the “sentinels” of the immune system. They are a specialized group of cells that play a critical role in immune surveillance, protecting the body from foreign invaders on first exposure.
The effectiveness
of NK cells is dependent upon their activity level. AHCC is
clinically proven to boost NK cell activity by several hundred
percent, making it a unique and powerful supplement.
