The Importance of the Synergy of Micro-Nutrients

His research has also demonstrated the importance of the Synergy of micro-nutrients. He is a firm believer that many of the micro-nutrients he includes in his formulas facilitate the function of the larger nutrients. This concept of Synergism is just a reflection of how the body works and what it can accomplish when provided with these essential macros and micronutrients that he includes in his well-balanced formulas.

Other Main Ingredients

He has a lot of prior experience and knowledge of the other main ingredients in this formula: MSM (methyl sulfonyl methane), Perna canaliculus, boswellic acid, egg-shell membrane glucosamine, and superoxide dismutase. Like the other Immune formulas, some of the immune active ingredients are in a much lower concentration.

Perna Canaliculus

Perna canaliculus is naturally sourced from New Zealand's green-lipped mussel. Perna has many beneficial health effects. The most well-known is the anti-inflammatory effects on arthritis. The presence of eicosatetraenoic acid (ETA) and glycosaminoglycans helps to block inflammation and alleviate joint pain.

Boswellia Serrata

Boswellia serrata is an Ayurvedic plant that contains triterpenoids called boswellic acid. Boswellic acid is a potent 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor with anti-arthritic and anti-inflammatory properties. Blocking this enzyme reduces the production of cellular inflammatory chemicals. Boswellia has also been shown in humans to have an anti-asthmatic effect, which could have importance for dogs with chronic bronchitis.

Humans with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis have shown improvement while taking Boswellia, which could relate to some of the inflammatory responses seen in inflammatory bowel disease in dogs. Boswellia also has anti-cancer properties. These would be anti-proliferation, improved cell differentiation, and stimulated apoptosis (cell death) of cancer cells. There are also studies showing the direct cytotoxic effects on cancer cells. These are all excellent reasons to include this ingredient in Dr. Ramaekers' formulas.

Hyaluronic Acid

He uses egg-shell membrane glycosamines because they are the most bio-available source of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is part of the glycosaminoglycan family; it's a complex carbohydrate vital to our well-being. Hyaluronic acid fastens onto our collagen and elastin and creates cartilage. It's found in every body tissue and is responsible for carrying out several vital functions. Hyaluronic acid assists in the distribution of nutrients to cells that don't possess a blood supply. Cartilage is one example of such cells. HA in those cells maintains the lubrication of joints and allows them to preserve water for other tissues. By retaining adequate water, our joints are less likely to become fragile and weak. HA also aids in the restoration of the skin by maintaining its elastin and collagen, encouraging a healthy appearance. Additionally, HA eliminates waste from cells and manages their movement. This results in activating our blood's white cells, reviving the immune system to decrease and combat unwanted bacteria successfully.
