Muno-IgY™
Muno-IgY™ is a natural set of ultra-purity IgY protein antibodies extracted from hen egg yolks. These antibodies, akin to human IgG protective antibodies, aid in gut health by targeting and removing pathogens, sparing beneficial microbiota. This supports the body's natural immune system, alleviating overall stress. Muno-IgY™ finds application in various nutraceuticals and supplements, including daily immune health support, gastrointestinal support, and active nutrition and sports performance products. It's an ideal companion for gut support during travel, and it blends seamlessly with other ingredients for unique product offerings.

- HIGHLIGHTS
Muno-IgY™ supports a healthy immune system through passive immunity.; Clinical study demonstrated improved immune function with a 60% reduction in duration, severity and incidence of URTI.; Contains specific antibodies to certain detrimental pathogens such as E. coli, Salmonella, H pylori, and gliadin protein.; There is a long history of using IgY to support healthy human immune systems.; IgY has several benefits compared to human and other mammalian antibodies like IgG, primarily IgY does not trigger the complement immune system.; Muno-IgY™ is produced from a proprietary technology to isolate the IgY resulting in greater concentration and effectiveness, and less volume.
- Storage Condition
Room Temperature (i.e. 25 + 2-degree C) and normal humidity conditions (30 + 5% RH).
- Applications
Nutraceuticals & Supplements (Capsules); Daily immune health support; Gastrointestinal support; Active nutrition/sports performance products; Gut support while traveling; Combines well with other ingredients to create unique product offerings
- Packaging Information
- Packaged in HDPE Containers
- Sample availability: 100 - 400g
- Difference
The only yolk-based antibody product derived from a unique manufacturing process resulting in a 35% purity compared to 1% or less for whole egg powder based products.; Higher purity allows for greater efficacy while providing longer shelf life.; High purity allows for a smaller volume of ingredients used in finished products.; Combines well with other ingredients such vitamins, minerals, herbals, probiotics and prebiotics to create unique products and synergistic offerings.
