EpiCor is an all natural, novel immune-supportive compound that fits into the unique category of being a high metabolite immunogen. EpiCor is a nutritive dried yeast fermentate that supports cellular metabolism and modulates immune function. In vitro laboratory data has shown that EpiCor beneficially influences cellular processes that impact immune health.

Information
Benefits
EpiCor is a unique and novel dietary supplement used for support of immune
health, with a fascinating history of discovery. In 1943, a company in Cedar
Rapids, Iowa called Diamond V Mills, Inc. began manufacturing and selling a
fermentation product from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the same yeast
used in bread and beer making. More information about Epicor

Caution
Numerous safety tests have been conducted on EpiCor, revealing an extremely safe profile. Animal studies performed by a leading toxicology laboratory showed no indication of any toxic effects of EpiCor. An acute oral toxicity study on 20 rats showed that the product was safe when given to rats at a single oral dose of 2000 milligrams per kilogram of body weight (equivalent to a human ingesting 280 capsules at once). After 2 weeks the rats showed no clinical symptoms, no deaths, no abnormalities in body weight, and no gross pathological changes. The same safety results were found in a subchronic toxicity study where rats were given up to 1500 milligrams daily for 90 days (equivalent to a human ingesting up to 210 capsules daily for 1.5 years). Again, absolutely no signs or symptoms of toxicity were noted in these animals.1,3
In addition, a standard bacterial reverse mutagenicity test (AMES test) as well as a mammalian cell mutation assay using mouse lymphoma cells revealed no evidence of any increase in mutation rates after exposure to EpiCor. EpiCor also showed no evidence of mitogenicity (inducing increased cell division) in a human lymphocyte proliferation assay. This suggests that EpiCor does not cause over-reactivity of cells1,3.
