What
is Primal Defense?
Primal Defense is a natural whole food probiotic blend of HSOs (Homeostatic
Soil Organisms) designed to optimize the health of the human digestive tract and
immune system. Primal Defense is produced using the Poten-Zyme process
and the Microflora Delivery System. Primal Defense contains the same
nutrients that have been used for thousands of years by some of the healthiest
and longest living people in the world.
Why do
we need Primal Defense?
Beneficial soil and plant based microbes used to be ingested as part of food
grown in rich, unpolluted soil. However, for the last 50 years we have been
sterilizing our soil with pesticides and herbicides, destroying most bacteria
both bad and good. Our modern lifestyle, which includes antibiotic drug use,
chlorinated water, chemical ingestion, pollution and poor diet, is responsible
for eradicating much of the beneficial bacteria in our bodies. A lack of beneficial
microbes often results in poor intestinal and immune system health, contributing
to a wide range of symptoms and illnesses. The following symptoms may result
from a lack of probiotics:
- Gas,
Bloating and Indigestion
- Diarrhea
and/or Constipation
- Bad Breath
and Body Odor
- Candida
Yeast Infections
- Chronic
Fatigue and Fibromyalgia
- IBS (Irritable
Bowel Syndrome)
- Skin
Problems such as Acne, Eczema and Psoriasis
- Delayed
Development in Children
- High
Cholesterol Levels
- Frequent
Colds and Flu
What
are HSOs(Homeostatic Soil Organisms)?
The main component in Primal Defense is the HSOs, which have been
used for over 22 years by thousands of health practitioners. The naturally occurring
colony arrays of probiotics are non-mutated from the original cultures found
in unpolluted soil and plants and are now cultured in U.S. laboratories using
the discoverer's proprietary methods.The HSOs are in a substrate of nutrient
rich superfoods providing vitamins, minerals, trace elements, enzymes and proteins.
The probiotics are then made dormant using the Microflora Delivery System,
which protects the probiotics and delivers them directly to the GI tract where
they multiply and flourish.
How do
HSOs Work?
Impervious to stomach acids and the digestive process, the microorganisms move
through the stomach to the intestinal tract where they form colonies along the
intestinal walls. HSOs multiply in the intestines and actually compete
with harmful bacteria and yeasts for receptor sites, crowding out the pathogens
and taking up residence. Once established, the organisms quickly begin producing
the proper environment to absorb nutrients and help to re-establish the proper
pH. According to early research and anecdotal evidence the following is a summary
of the actions of HSOs.
HSOs work from the inside of the intestines dislodging accumulated decay
on the walls and flushing out waste.
HSOs break down hydrocarbons, a unique ability to split food into its
most basic elements allowing almost total absorption through the digestive system.
This increases overall nutrition and enhances cellular development.
HSOs produce specific proteins that act as antigens, encouraging the immune
system to produce huge pools of uncoded antibodies. This increased production
of antibodies may significantly boost the body's ability to ward off diseases.
HSOs are very aggressive against pathological molds, yeasts, fungi, bacteria,
parasites and viruses.
HSOs work in symbiosis with somatic (tissue or organ) cells to metabolize
proteins and eliminate toxic waste.
HSOs stimulate the body to produce natural alpha-interferon. Alpha interferon
is a potent immune system enhancer and a powerful inhibitor of viruses.
HSOs provide critical Lactoferrin supplementation. The microbes produce
lactoferrin as a by-product of their metabolism. Lactoferrin is an iron binding
protein essential for retrieving iron from foods.
What
is the difference between Primal Defense and other Probiotics?
Even if they manage to get through the destructive stomach acids, most probiotic
supplements can have a hard time implanting in colons that are pH imbalanced
or have too many harmful bacteria. HSOs are designed to implant in any
colonic environment. The Microflora Delivery System makes sure that the
probiotics colonize throughout the digestive tract where they can work their
magic. The probiotics contained in Primal Defense are grown and incorporated
into a living whole food substrate using the Poten-Zyme process. This
puts the bacteria into their home, if you will, allowing them to thrive on their
long journey through the GI tract. Most probiotics on the market today will
grow bacteria and then, in a centrifuge, separate them from their substrate.
We believe the substrate is as important as the probiotics themselves. Many
probiotics have included fructooligosaccharides (FOS) in their product. FOS
is an indigestible sugar that may cause digestive disturbances in certain individuals.
Primal Defense contains no FOS. Since most probiotic supplements contain live
cultures, they are temperature and age sensitive; therefore requiring refrigeration.
If room temperature can begin to degrade these probiotics, imagine what the
warm human body will do. The HSOs are dormant in the caplet and activated
by fluids. Primal Defense requires no refrigeration. Many probiotics on
the market measure their potency in colony forming units (CFU). In Primal Defense,
it's not the quantity of probiotics, it's the quality. The probiotics in Primal
Defense are hardy and are designed to resist heat, cold, stomach acid,
chlorine, fluorine, ascorbic acid and bile. The efficacy of a probiotic should
be based upon the ability of the product to "on ferment" foods. If
you want to test the viability of a probiotic product, simply drop a few caplets
in 2-4 ounces of milk and leave at room temperature for 24-48 hours. If the
probiotic is viable, the milk will change to a thick yogurt-like consistency.
This measures the ability of a probiotic to produce enzymes and break down or
pre-digest food. If a probiotic cannot pass this simple test, do you think it
will be capable of doing it's job in your body?
What
are Physicians saying about Primal Defense?
"I use quite a bit of Primal Defense for tough cases of bowel toxemia
and irritable bowel syndrome. My patients like it, and I attest to Primal Defense
being a superior product for gut metabolism." James Privatera, MD
"Almost
all people who consult me for the care of irritable bowel syndrome, candidiasis,
Lyme disease, or infections get their gut flora changed to healthier consistencies
by my prescribing Primal Defense for them. I am invariably using one of
the lactobacillus preparations, and the HSOs of Primal Defense are
the top of the line, the Cadillac' of lactobacilli." Seldon Nelson,
DO
"For
many years now I have been involved in alternative medical care and integrated
medicine. In the search for effective, safe remedies, I am constantly reviewing
product claims and anecdotal reports. More often than not they fail to meet
my expectations, that is, except for Primal Defense. This product generated
the most affirmative response I have ever seen." Charles Hamel, MD
Two Primal
Delivery Systems
Primal Defense comes in two easy to use forms: Powder and UltraZorbe
caplets. UltraZorbe caplets utilize a proprietary technology which requires
no heat and fully preserves the delicate probiotics and enzymes contained in
the product. UltraZorbe caplets are designed to provide rapid disintegration
and dissolution to completely deliver the nutrients in a timely fashion. Just
drop a few caplets in water and see for yourself.
