Think of the immune system as a symphony orchestra. Like an orchestra, the immune system has different sections consisting of cellular and chemical components. These sections work in harmony to rid the body of entities harmful to your health.
Just as the orchestra contains individual instruments with different functions, so too does the immune system. The chemical section, for example, has nine known types of antibodies with unique structures and functions. The antibodies circulate through the blood and body fluids seeking out foreign invaders, attacking them directly or marking them for later attack by immune cells. The cellular section is composed of a variety of unique immune cells that find and destroy foreign invaders.

The immune system functions to maintain a healthy balance in our bodies – producing immune proteins and antibodies that help control the growth and development of harmful bacteria. NuVim® is instrumental in supporting a healthy immune system by providing the body with the patented prebiotic fiber NutraFlora®. This innovative ingredient works in harmony with the body’s own beneficial bacteria to help you maintain a strong immune system and overall well-being.

NuVim® contains whey protein, which is a naturally complete protein that has all of the essential amino acids required in the daily diet. Essential amino acids are the building blocks for healthy muscles, skin, nails and other body tissues. Whey protein is a rich source of branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), containing the highest known levels of any natural food source. BCAAs are important for athletes since unlike the other essential amino acids, they are metabolized directly into muscle tissue and are the first ones used during periods of exercise and resistance training. Whey protein helps replenish depleted levels of BCAAs to help repair and rebuild lean muscle tissue.
