THYMUS FACTOR
THYMUS FACTOR is a dietary supplement containing a unique composition of peptides from calf thymus from New Zealand, as well as selenium, zinc and vitamin C. The appropriate proportions of these ingredients create a synergistic composition supporting the proper functioning of the immune system and protecting cells from oxidative stress. Lyophilisate from thymus extract preserves the intact, natural profile of ingredients, which promotes the synergy of the original peptides and proteins. The supplement was developed in the form of enteric capsules, thanks to which it bypasses the action of stomach acids, releasing active substances at the place of their intended action.
- Thymus extract strengthens the immune system and helps activate the organism's defense mechanisms
- Our capsules contain an extract of high-quality calf thymus imported from New Zealand
- Optimal effect in an enteric capsule
IMMUNITY
The thymus is a key element responsible for the maturation of T lymphocytes. It is T lymphocytes that are the human body's effective weapon in the fight against bacteria, viruses and harmful microorganisms.
CALF THYMUS EXTRACT
Calf thymus, unlike beef thymus, is much more active because it has a structure and biochemical composition that better corresponds to the properties of the human thymus.
THYMUS EXTRACT FROM NEW ZEALAND
Thymus Factor contains an extract of high-quality calf thymus imported from New Zealand.
LYOPHILIZATE FROM CALF THYMUS
The lyophilisate from thymus extract preserves the intact, natural profile of ingredients, which promotes the synergy of the action of the original peptides and proteins.
INGREDIENTS
The type and proportions of ingredients have been deliberately selected to best utilize their biological potential. Thymus Factor contains calf thymus extract from New Zealand, vitamin C, selenium and zinc.
ENTERIC CAPSULES
The supplement has been developed in the form of enteric capsules, which release active substances at the place of their intended action and at the same time protect the preparation from the action of stomach acids.
MODE OF ACTION
THYMUS FACTOR works by supporting complex processes that the organism uses to maintain homeostasis both within the thymus and the entire immune system.
The thymus produces a family of hormone-like peptides, which include numerous polypeptides, and the most important include:
- - Prothymosin α
- - Thymosin α1
- - Thymosin β4
- - Thymulin
- - Thymopoietin
These biologically necessary peptides have a multifaceted effect on the immune system:
- - They stimulate the differentiation and maturation of T cells,
- - They activate NK cells (Natural Killer) and dendritic cells (DC)
- - They induce the release of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines.
THYMOTHERAPY
Thymotherapy is a treatment using thymosins – peptides from the thymus. The thymus is an internal secretion gland and at the same time a central lymphatic organ, responsible for the production and release of thymosins – peptides with a hormone-like effect that affect the differentiation and maturation of T lymphocytes, i.e., cells of the immune system, and modulate the immune response dependent on them. It is T lymphocytes that are an effective weapon of the human organism in the fight against bacteria, viruses and harmful microorganisms. Many years of research on thymus preparations show a wide spectrum of its action. The level of thymus hormones decreases with age, it drops already between the ages of 20 and 30, disappearing completely between the ages of 50 and 60. The decrease in its activity is influenced by, among others, the aging process, sex hormones (during puberty), chronic stress, poor nutrition, environmental stimuli and finally the influence of various drugs (chemotherapy, hormone therapy and radiotherapy), which is not without harm to the organism. Numerous scientific projects confirm the validity of using thymus peptides for systemic support of immunity.
Research on biologically active calf thymus extracts initiated in the 1960s resulted in the isolation of preparations that demonstrate an integrated effect on the immune system. Moreover, thymus preparations can contribute to the alleviation of side effects after taking medications such as anti-inflammatories, antibiotics and hormones, while supporting the functional renewal of the immune system.
In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Polish Hospital Federation published the report “Handbook of COVID-19 Prevention and Treatment”, as a result of research conducted by Chinese scientists. On page 56 of the english version of this document there are listed recommendations for treating critical COVID-19 infections with thymic peptides. read more
Frequent inflammations can be a sign of weakened immunity. Thymus peptides are one of the factors that can support the body by restoring balance, and therefore reduce the frequency of inflammations and infections.
COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
1. Raw material
The raw material from which THYMUS FACTOR is produced comes from carefully selected calf thymus from a qualified supplier from New Zealand, working in the GMP standard, which guarantees the safety and high quality of the product. The production process is controlled at every stage in accordance with HACCP requirements. The raw material is free from antibiotics.
Calf thymus, unlike bovine thymus, is definitely more active, because it has a structure and biochemical composition that better corresponds to the properties of human thymus.
The thymus in our preparation is in the form of a lyophilisate, and therefore retains an intact, natural profile of ingredients, which promotes the synergy of the action of original peptides and proteins.
2. Production technology
Thymus Factor is manufactured by the company that is responsible for introducing the drug TFX® (Thymostimulinum) to the market. In the production of the THYMUS FACTOR supplement, the company uses the experience, knowledge and raw material used in the production of the drug TFX.
3. Optimal effects in an enteric capsule
The supplement has been developed in the form of enteric capsules, which are resistant to hydrochloric acid and do not dissolve in the stomach. Active substances are released only in the small intestine, which affects their better absorption by the body.
INGREDIENTS
The type and mutual proportions of ingredients have been consciously selected in such a way as to best use their biological potential.
Thymus extract is a biologically active ingredient supporting the immune system. The thymus plays a key role in the maturation of T lymphocytes, which are responsible for the body’s immune response. Thymus extract provides immunomodulatory peptides that support the functioning of the immune system and help maintain its balance. Calf thymus, unlike bovine thymus, is definitely more active because its structure and biochemical composition better correspond to the properties of the human thymus.
Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) as a strong antioxidant protects the body against free radicals and reduces cell damage caused by diseases and aging processes. Improves the functioning of the immune system by increasing the activity of NK (natural killer) cells and B and T lymphocytes.
Selenium was used in an organic form, i.e., L-selenomethionine, which has a much higher bioavailability than the synthetic one, which means that the organism absorbs and uses it better. Selenium in this form supports the immune system, protects cells from oxidative stress, supports the functioning of the cardiovascular system and the proper functioning of the thyroid gland.
Zinc in the preparation occurs in an organic form, i.e., zinc gluconate. It has a direct effect on the activation of the thymulin hormone secreted by the thymus, which significantly affects the immune system. Deficiency of this element can cause atrophy (loss) of the thymus and lower resistance to infections.
