Thorne Research IM-Encap
IM-Encap's unique combination of glandulars, botanicals, and
nutrients is specifically formulated to support the immune system.
Product Information
IM-Encap was one of the first formulas in the Thorne Research line
of dietary supplements. A time-tested immune system support formula,
it has been a consistent best seller.
IM-Encap contains bovine spleen, thymus, and lymph glandulars to
nourish and enhance the tone, function, and activity of these same
glands in humans.* The thymus gland can benefit many aspects of
cellular immunity, including maturation of T-cell precursors.*
Thymus extracts can naturally enhance several immune parameters.*
Spleen extracts support the production of white blood cells and
enhance the activity of natural killer (NK) cells.*
Zinc can affect multiple aspects of the immune system, including
promoting acquired immunity and macrophage function.* Vitamins A and
C promote the production and activity of white blood cells.*
Echinacea angustifolia, Baptisia tinctoria, Paeonia suffruticosa,
Sambucus nigra, Eupatorium perfoliatum, and Pau d'arco are
botanicals with immune-supportive properties.* Baptisia tinctoria
(wild indigo) has immune-supportive properties and is frequently
used in conjunction with Echinacea.* Paeonia suffruticosa has
numerous properties that benefit immune support.* Pau d'arco has
demonstrated effectiveness in immune support due to its antioxidant
effects.* The flavonoids in Sambucus nigra (elderberry) extracts are
effective immune enhancers.* Eupatorium perfoliatum (boneset) has
been used extensively to support respiratory health and is known for
possessing potent immuno-supportive properties.*
