The nutritional Science BEHIND IMMUNENCE
The articles presented in this page are from leading international medical journal resources, which is where Immunence got our nutritional science facts from to create our unique blend of superfood ingredients.
Our top priority when creating Immunence was to ensure that every ingredient used played a part in boosting the immune system and helps you to be feeling your best self.
This means they can be a little heavy to read, but it was important to demonstrate that the ingredients selected for IMMUNENCE come from real science and are not just antidotes or opinions (even if those opinions are from ‘experts’).
We have tried to select META-ANALYSIS studies wherever available. The National Institute of Health describes them as:
“A quantitative, formal, epidemiological study design used to systematically assess the results of previous research to derive conclusions about that body of research. Typically, but not necessarily, the study is based on randomized, controlled clinical trials.”
A plant-based diet and coronary artery disease: a mandate for effective therapy
A 1999 autopsy study of young adults in the US between the ages of 17 and 34 years of who died from accidents, suicides, and homicides confirmed that coronary artery disease (CAD) is ubiquitous in this age group. The disease process at this stage is too early to cause...
Plant-based vegetarian diets are associated with lower cholesterol
A new dietary review of 49 observational and controlled studies finds plant-based vegetarian diets, especially vegan diets, are associated with lower levels of total cholesterol, including lower levels of HDL and LDL cholesterol, compared to omnivorous diets. The...
Oral turmeric/curcumin effects on inflammatory markers in chronic inflammatory diseases: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Turmeric extract or active component curcumin may have anti-inflammatory effects in people with chronic inflammatory diseases. The effect of turmeric or curcumin on a wide range of inflammatory markers has not been evaluated in a systematic review. We performed a...
Efficacy of Turmeric Extracts and Curcumin for Alleviating the Symptoms of Joint Arthritis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials
Although turmeric and its curcumin-enriched extracts have been used for treating arthritis, no systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials (RCTs) have been conducted to evaluate the strength of the research. We systemically evaluated all RCTs of...
A Meta-Analysis of the Clinical Use of Curcumin for Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
