Immune and gastrointestinal imbalances have been found to influence many immune and autoimmune conditions.
SBI and Immune Health
The GI tract acts as the gateway to the rest of the body, making the health of the gut barrier critical to overall health. Environmental triggers like poor diet, high stress and toxin exposure can lead to GI challenges. In practice, probiotics are a natural choice for supporting beneficial bacteria in the gut, but supplementation to eliminate unwanted microbes should also be considered. SBI has been shown to bind microbes and toxins, further enhancing microbiome balance and facilitating gut barrier strength. Broad-spectrum binding capabilities demonstrate the positive influence of non-allergenic forms of immunoglobulins. As seen in several studies, SBI has the potential to bind many types of microbes and toxins. This binding and elimination decreases microbe and toxin encounters by the immune system and resets immune tolerance.
Occasionally, the immune system becomes overactive and immune tolerance drops. When immune tolerance is lost, the checks and balances of antibody production can be affected. To reestablish immune tolerance and appropriate activation, the burden on the immune system must be reduced. Reducing the reasons to respond allows the tissue to maintain normal inflammatory balance and creates an environment for normal tissue repair and immune reconstitution.
The body constantly encounters foreign substances and creates a healthy response and memory for those encounters. One way the body establishes memory is through the production of immunoglobulins, also known as antibodies. These allow the immune system to act quickly and efficiently in the event of a repeat encounter. While the body naturally produces immunoglobulins, it can be beneficial to supplement with immunoglobulins for mucosal immune support within the GI tract. By taking immunoglobulins, the burden and overload of unwanted microbes and toxins can be bound and eliminated prior to immune activation. This can be beneficial when balancing a healthy immune response for those with immune and gastrointestinal challenges. Serum-derived bovine immunoglobulin concentrate (SBI) is a highly concentrated form of immunoglobulins that helps to reduce toxic burden and maintain microbial balance, which enhances an appropriate immune response. SBI Protect also contains transferrin, and iron-binding glycoprotein that facilitates iron absorption and protects against harmful organisms by depleting the environment of iron for microbial replication.
Overview
SBI Protect is the only purified, dairy-free source of immunoglobulin G (IgG) available as a dietary supplement. Serum-derived bovine immunoglobulins (SBI) provide the highest IgG concentration available for GI and immune challenges where allergens are a significant concern. Pure IgG helps to maintain a healthy intestinal immune system by binding a broad range of microbes and toxins within the gut lumen. SBI Protect provides 1,200 mg IgG in a one-scoop serving.
