Catimune™ is a unique combination of rainforest botanicals that nutritionally support the immune system. It combines ancient wisdom and secrets of rainforest healers with new technologies and methods of extraction and standardization of active and beneficial phytochemicals and nutrients. The formula is based on a 5-step method for better immune function. Step one is provided by Cat's Claw and Suma, which are direct immuno-supportive herbs documented to increase phagocytosis and provide a general immune stimulating effect. This naturally helps killer cells attack invading bacteria. The second step is accomplished by Pau d'Arco and again by Cat's Claw, which provide additional natural anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-parasitic action by fighting bacteria directly. Lymphatic system function is an important aspect in immune system support, which is provided by Carqueja and Sarsaparilla in this important third step. The fourth step in the process, provided by several herbs in Catimune, nutritionally supports the blood and circulatory system. This step helps flush out toxins once the process is completed. The fifth step flushes and detoxifies the liver and kidneys and helps them eliminate toxins from the body.

THE POWER OF CAT'S CLAW
Cat's Claw, also referred to as "Una de gato" and "Sacred Herb of the Rainforest," is the new leader in naturally occurring immuno-supportive agents. All Cat's Claw utilized in Life Plus products is of the highest quality and is harvested in the Peruvian Rainforest in a sustainable ecological friendly manner. Six oxindole alkaloids have been isolated from the inner bark of this wonderful plant and have been proven to provide a general boost to the immune system. These oxindole alkaloids also have a profound effect on the ability of white blood cells to engulf and digest harmful microorganisms and foreign matter. This natural process is called phagocytosis. Other alkaloids and phytochemicals present in Cat's Claw have been shown to provide natural support against many viri. When included in the diet, they naturally support normal blood pressure and help prevent inflammation as well as act as anti-mutagenic agents.

The Cat's Claw in Catimune is the highest quality available worldwide and is standardized to an alkaloid content of 4% utilizing a new proprietary process. This provides a full 8 milligrams of pure oxindole alkaloids per tablet - over 2 to 8 times more than standard Cat's Claw capsules sold today! Why settle for standard Cat's Claw capsules when you can get more from Catimune, plus the added benefits and actions of the other synergistic Rainforest botanicals in this powerful immune formula. In addition to the standardized Cat's Claw extract, two more powerful standardized extracts are included, Pau d'Arco and Suma. These high quality standardized extracts guarantee the potency of the extracts and provide the highest amount of researched and documented beneficial phytochemicals available to provide an extremely potent and highly beneficial formula.

FIVE-STEPS TO BETTER IMMUNE FUNCTION
The Catimune formula is based on ancient and traditional methods employed by the indigenous tribes of the Rainforest. This, combined with the technology and science of today, guarantees potent standardized extracts. Using highly potent standardized extracts like Cat's Claw containing 4% oxindole alkaloids and Suma containing 5% ecdysterones, plus saponins to increase our natural defense mechanisms is just the first, but an important step.

The second step is to provide herbs and herbal extracts with natural anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-parasitic actions that kill viri and bacteria directly. Cat's Claw and Pau d'Arco have been traditionally used for this purpose. Modern science has shown them to be highly effective, which validates their indigenous use. Pau d'Arco's anti-viral properties have been attributed to a set of phytochemicals called naphtoquinones and Catimune provides a guaranteed potency of 3% of them in each tablet. These important components in standardized extract form guarantees the potency and benefits of the herbal ingredients in Catimune.

The lymphatic system, much like a second circulatory system, is responsible for moving infection fighting killer cells from the blood stream into all other body cells. There is no pump to control lymphatic fluid flow like the heart does in the blood circulatory system. Lymphatic flow depends on the contraction of muscles close to the walls of the lymphatic vessels when we move. In other words, the lymphatic vessels are "massaged," which causes the lymphatic fluid (lymph) to flow. Carqueja and Sarsaparilla, two herbs indigenous to the rainforest, are included in Catimune to support this important third step.

The immune system's lymphocyte killer cells and the resulting debris from their work is contained in the bloodstream. The fourth step provided by several herbs in Catimune, is to nutritionally support the circulatory system to help them find and attack invading bacteria. Then, it is important to flush the resulting debris and toxins from the bloodstream. Carqueja is well-known in tribal medicine for its circulation and blood fortifying abilities. Sarsaparilla and Pau d'Arco have also been used for centuries as blood detoxifiers.

The final step is to detoxify both the liver and kidneys to cleanse them completely. Chanca Piedra, also called "stone-breaker", is world renown for its liver, kidney and gall bladder detoxifying benefits and is included in Catimune for this benefit.

HEALTH FROM THE RAINFOREST

PRESERVING THE RAINFOREST
