END OF SUMMER EVENT
The entire inside of the body (along the mouth, nose, sinuses, lungs, gut, and urinary/reproductive tract) is lined by a thin membrane called the mucosa. It forms the barrier between the bloodstream and everything we inhale and ingest from the outside world. These mucosal barriers play an integral role in health. They provide structural defense, host the microbiome, and house 80% of the body’s immune cells.
The Barriers
A healthy mucosal barrier is one that is in balance, allowing the body to absorb essential nutrients while also keeping out harmful substances from everything we breathe, eat, and drink.
The gut mucosal barrier is comprised of 4 layers:
Gut Cell Barrier, Mucous Layer, Microbiome, and Immune Cells and Antibodies.
But modern living impairs immunity at the mucosa. Each day, our bodies are bombarded by a host of disruptive things that weaken this line of defense. Air pollutants, pesticides in the food and water supply, medications, stress hormones, refined carbohydrates, processed food, and micronutrient deficiencies, among other factors, disrupt the architecture and make the barrier more penetrable. This makes it easier for harmful particles to get inside, including viruses, bacteria, molds, allergens, and environmental toxins.*
Gut Cell Barrier
This layer of cells should be tightly sealed and create a wall that allows your body to absorb healthy nutrients, while keeping harmful particles out. Colostrum's peptides strengthen this barrier for a high-integrity gut wall.
Mucous Layer
Think of this as the scaffolding that the microbiome can stick to and live on. Colostrum supports this layer for a thick matrix to support optimal microbiome health.
Microbiome
The population of microorganisms in the gut help us break down food, produce and regulate hormones and brain chemicals, and impact immune, brain, gut, hormonal, and metabolic health.
Immune Cells & Antibodies
Patrolling this wall are immune cells and antibodies that can bind and intercept harmful particles for an additional layer of protection.
Modern living breaks down the barrier, ARMRA Colostrum® helps build it back.
ARMRA’s proprietary colostrum contains bioactive nutrients that help build a stronger barrier and support a healthy microbiome throughout, to naturally enhance immune and whole body health.
