ViralPro™

Potent antioxidant formulation that combats viruses including herpes

ViralPro™ is a potent antioxidant formula that contains BHT and a blend of 4 mushrooms known for their reported anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties. BHT is well known to be effective against viruses including the Herpes virus.

BHT is believed to work against the virus by potentially damaging the protective layer of the viral cell, in turn making the virus vulnerable to the immune system, which may result in preventing the virus from multiplying and causing outbreaks.

The mushrooms included in the ViralPro™ blend have been used in Asian medicines for hundreds, if not thousands of years. They have proven bioactive compounds to fight against infections, bacteria, inflammation, fungi and even cancerous cells.

A little ViralPro™ each day is a sure way to boost your immune function, lessen the impact of illness and in some cases, prevent it from ever taking hold.

Product Description

ViralPro™ helps to boost your body

It is essential to support our immune system, either by diet, supplementation, or both. This helps to prevent against unexpected sickness and support the immune system in recovering faster.

It can be difficult to make sure we always eat the right number of rich fruits and vegetables to supplement our bodies naturally; this is where ViralPro™ comes in.

Mushrooms included in ViralPro

Shiitake

  • These contain a unique nutritional and antioxidant profile
  • High in copper, Pantothenic Acid, selenium, zinc, manganese and Riboflavin
  • Also contain Lentinan – this is reported to fight both viral and bacterial infections (1),(2

Turkey Tail

  • An antioxidant superhero
  • Believed to contain over 35 different phenolic compounds that fight toxins, as well as Quercetin and Baicalein flavonoids. This profile has been seen to promote a healthy immune system
  • They also contain Krestin (PSK) and Polysaccharide Peptides (PSP) – both known for their ability to boost the immune system. China, Japan and other countries have used PSK and PSP as part of their front line cancer therapy programs due to their ability to boost immunity. .(3),(4).
  • Additionally, in-vivo studies have shown Turkey Tail extract to inhibit the growth of both Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella enterica bacteria(5)

Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum)

  • Has been studied extensively on both humans and animals
  • Specific cell studies have also taken place
  • All studies have shown that Reishi mushrooms have many positive effects on both the immune system and on the white blood cells(6),(7)

Gypsy (Rozites Caperata)

  • In-vivo testing has shown that the Gypsy mushroom contains a chemical that can fight the Herpes simplex virus
  • This same chemical, believed to be composed of a unique sequence of peptides, has also been shown to block common viruses such as Infleunza A, RSV and chicken pox.
  • This chemical has been patented and is known as RC-183 (8)(9)

What is BHT?

Used since the 1940s in food preparation, BHT, or butylated hydroxytoluene, is a potent antioxidant and preservative, used to prevent oils and fats from spoiling and going rancid. If you’ve ever wondered why the cereal you’ve had in the back of the cupboard for months is still good, BHT probably had something to do with it.

Since BHT’s discovery, an enormous number of uses have been found for this amazing preservative. It can be present in everything from food to cosmetics, even jet fuel, but more recently, in powerful antioxidant health supplements as well.

Its primary mechanism is the prevention of autoxidation, a free radical generating process caused by oxygen attacking unsaturated organic compounds such as fats. By preventing autoxidation and the production of free radicals, BHT keeps compounds stable for longer, preventing their breakdown and associated decay.

Is BHT safe?

One of the major questions around BHT’s use is its safety. Despite widespread scare tactics, there has been little proof that BHT is responsible for any incidence of human harm or mortality.

In fact, many of the criticisms levelled against BHT are spurious. The most common — that because of its wide uses in industrial applications it is inherently unsafe — is clear disingenuity: water is found in everything from pesticide to radiator fluid but few would argue its importance to health.

The few studies that have shown significant negative effects have tended to use very high dosage, far beyond what any normal person would consume, and really only prove the old axiom that too much of anything is bad for you.

Why is BHT good for you?

Contrary to reports featured in the press, BHT may have a wide range of beneficial health effects, and is the focus of a significant amount of research into antiviral and longevity science. Much as BHT is capable of preventing autoxidation in oils present in the foods we consume and the products we use, it is also able to mitigate the damage caused by autoxidation within our bodies.

Studies have been conducted on BHT’s application in medical treatments since the 1970s and there is a growing body of evidence to indicate that it is not only safe but also beneficial. One of BHT’s major health benefits is its action upon lipid-coated viruses such as herpes, hepatitis c, and influenza. BHT disrupts the lipid membrane that surrounds these viruses, damaging them and their ability to penetrate the walls of human cells. Because of this, BHT has been used off-label as a herpes treatment to great effect, particularly following the publication of John A. Mann’s and Steven Fowkes’s groundbreaking Wipe Out Herpes with BHT.

BHT’s antioxidant effect may also have antiaging properties.  By mitigating the oxidative stress that the body undergoes via general metabolic function, BHT may lengthen the life of cells, promoting greater health and potentially, life span.

What is oxidation?

Oxidation is a common chemical process you can see all around you. When a cut apple turns brown, a steel pipe becomes rusty, or an old copper coin develops a furry green surface, these are all the products of oxidation. But did you know that the same process occurs inside your body?

Oxidation is what occurs when substances interact in a way that results in the loss of electrons, such as when oxygen reacts with iron to create iron oxide or rust. While this is not always a damaging process, and is in many cases essential to normal body function, too much oxidation can have a harmful effect on your health.

This is because these electron-losing reactions between substances often cause the release of free radicals, new compounds that can cause powerful chain reactions that can lead to damage or death within the body’s cells.

What do antioxidants do and how can they help?

Antioxidants inhibit the oxidation of other molecules in the body by being oxidised themselves. They terminate free radical intermediaries and inhibit oxidative reactions.

This process reduces oxidative stress on the body significantly, and limits the subsequent damage this can cause, including physical aging. Using ViralPRO™ can help to slow down the aging process whilst boosting the immune system and other bodily functions, as well as helping to prevent other diseases and degenerative conditions from occurring.
