A novel botanical complex designed for full-spectrum immune support

Spectramune is a patented, synergistic combination of ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) and Haritaki (Terminalia chebula). This combination was selected from a screening process that examined 40 different botanicals known to have immune support properties.

Ashwagandha

Ashwagandha is an evergreen shrub in the nightshade family that grows in India, the Middle East, and parts of Africa. The plant, particularly its root powder, has been used for centuries in traditional Indian medicine.

Haritaki

Haritaki is a species of Terminalia, native to South Asia from India and Nepal east to southwest China (Yunnan), and south to Sri Lanka, Malaysia, and Vietnam.

Rhodiola rosea

Rhodiola rosea is a plant native to remote Arctic climates in Asia, Europe and North America.

Clinical Study Demonstrates Full-Spectrum Immune Support

In a 4-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, healthy male and female subjects with low immune status took 500 mg/d of Spectramune or a matching placebo. The study assessed both biomarkers and perceived immune status.

Lymphocytes and IgG
Spectramune improved markers of cell-mediated and humoral immunity.

T Lymphocytes
Spectramune improved T lymphocyte populations and the ratio of helper T cells and cytotoxic T cells. Spectramune significantly increased total T cell population, CD4+ T cells, and improved CD4/CD8 balance compared to placebo.

Innate Immune Factors and Immune Function

Spectramune increased IFN-γ and improved Perceived Immune Function.

Spectramune supplementation significantly increased serum IFN-γ compared to placebo. Perceived Immune Status improved from baseline in both groups, but the improvement in the Spectramune group was significantly better compared to placebo.

Clinical Study: Spectramune Provides Broad Spectrum
Immune Support

In a four-week trial, healthy male and female subjects (35-60 years of age/) who self-identified with low perceived immune status consumed 500 mg/d of Spectramune versus a placebo. showed significant improvements across a broad range of immune cells – targeting innate, cell-mediated and humoral immunity.

ORIGIN STORY

An intensive search of traditional botanical medicine

The development of Spectramune Immune Defense Complex started with a few simple questions: “how can we create something new in the immune health space that is based on botanicals rather than traditional polysaccharides or other fibers from fungal sources?

Support Immune Function

Researchers at PLT innovation partner Laila Nutraceutical began a screening process that examined forty different botanicals known from scientific literature or traditional medicine to have the ability to support immune function.

Evaluation of Plant Extracts

The plant extracts were evaluated for:

IL-2 production
IFN gamma production
Lymphocyte proliferation in primary human peripheral blood cells

The list of plants was narrowed down to the four with the best activity in all three assays.

Ashwagandha and Haritaki

The research examined botanical extract synergies and evaluated which combination of these showed the best potential. At the end of the process, it was a 1:1 ratio of ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) and Haritaki (Terminalia chebula).

Clinically Backed, Full-Spectrum Support

Immune support is top of mind for consumers in all walks of life. But many of the ingredient solutions on the market have failed to address emerging pain points in the immune supplement space. Spectramune® Immune Defense Complex is a proprietary, botanical ingredient complex that brings something new and exciting to the immune health space. The unique Spectramune combination was shown to support immune function in an experimental immunosuppression model. Impressive results and an excellent safety profile prompted the ingredient to be taken into randomized controlled trials in humans, where its efficacy was further validated.

Formulators of immune health products can use Spectramune as a foundational ingredient or in combination with existing formulas to address a wide range of a consumer’s immune health needs.
