Why is the sterolin such an important part of the natural sterol/sterolin formulation?
In nature, plants never contain sterols only. The sterols are always associated with their glucoside, namely, the sterolin. When we tested the Moducare Sterols/sterolins in vitro for their activity on immune functions, we showed quite clearly that: (a) the proliferation of T lymphocytes was enhanced maximally only when both Moducare Sterols/sterolins are present. Test result demonstrated that the sterols, in the absence of sterolins and vice versa, do this minimally. The blend of Moducare Sterols/sterolins (ratio of 100:1) have maximum effect on the proliferation of the T lymphocytes. (b) similarly the natural cell killing ability is maximised with the blend of Moducare Sterols/sterolins. Both of the above observations are published in the International Journal of Immunopharmacology 1996, 18, 693-700. In vivo data further showed that the blend is necessary for activity: studies showed that the blend of Moducare Sterols/sterolins exhibited the best immunomodulatory activity.
