Dr. Citrolo shared a unique perspective on Kyowa Hakko's innovative postbiotic, "IMMUSE™, which is a patented strain of Lactococcus lactis that provides clinically researched immune support is unlike any other immune support ingredient, by activating plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), key leaders of the immune system, IMMUSE™ provides more comprehensive immune support."

IMMUSE™, discovered by Kirin Holding Company Limited, a pioneer in fermentation technology and parent company to Kyowa Hakko Bio, acts uniquely by activating a key leader of the immune system and to activate pivotal cells such as NK, Killer-T, Helper-T, and B cells. Dr. Citrolo explains, "We believe this may be the most comprehensive immune activator on the market today. With 26 published studies, these studies are repetitively and consistently demonstrating the benefits in immune health in healthy subjects."

According to Dr. Citrolo, "There is emerging evidence that has shown oral intake of LC- Plasma activates pDC and provides immune support. This novel approach to enhance the immune system positions IMMUSE™ firmly in the competitive immune health space as immune health remains top of mind."

Validated by eleven human clinical studies consisting of nine efficacy studies and two safety studies, IMMUSE™ is a science-based ingredient that functions to get the immune system ready, supporting year-round health when taken regularly.* A series of safety data including in vitro, in vivo and in human have been collected. Deemed stable in a wide variety of applications including tablets, capsules and gummy formulations, IMMUSE™ is an innovative dietary supplement ingredient delivering a breakthrough approach for immune health.
