Description

I
A COMPOSITION
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to a composition which will assist operation of the immune system.
BACKGROUND TO THE INVENTION
In the wake of new biological discoveries and molecular developments, which at the time were thought to be to the benefit of mankind, there are now a number of problems that have been found. With the production of seemingly any new molecules, it was thought that we could manipulate life. The associated problems have impacted on the ecological environment, by causing a deviation from normal biological processes, as well as the immune response processes of animals and humans. The negative side effects on biological processes appear significant. This is particularly the case with domestic animals raised for human consumption on supplements, such as growth stimulants and medicaments, including antibiotics. Chickens are one example of such animals. In this case, the birds are affected by a syndrome characterized by deficient immune system response.
The syndrome referred to is complex in chickens and is first triggered by the vertical transmission of pathogenic bacteria to the egg yolk as it travels down the Co
Eg Wo oviduct before it is covered by the cuticle. During incubation and in the whole embryonic development stage all new dividing cells are subjected to these bacteria. This is also the case with the evolving immune system. These bacterial cells are now seen as “normal self biological cells” and this sets the platform for acquiring tolerance to these bacteria. For the rest of the animal's lifespan it will not be able to launch an immune response to this pathogen and is now an active carrier of this disease.
Throughout the whole process these bacteria keep their capsules intact without revealing there surface antigenic determinants. This is why these cells coupled to the la Antigen, a receptor on the membrane surface, can pass through the cytoplasmic membrane of the macrophages and lie dormant in the cytoplasm without any danger of phagasome and lisosomatic digestion.
During any form of stress, especially associated with factors that suppress the immune system, these bacteria shed their capsules and become active. They leave the macrophage cells and adhere again to cells with the la Antigen, in this case B lymphocytes and all red blood cells as well as the red blood cell precursor cells in the bone marrow. As part of the cytoplasmic membrane of the red blood cell, this bacteria membrane complex now functions as a hapten complex.
Because these bacteria cells are now, for the first time without the capsule protection, an immune response can be launched. This reaction gives rise to the formation of a Type Il immune response and ends in the full-blown auto-immune haemolitic anaemia with subsequent haemolysis of red blood cells and ends in severe anaemia with ultimate congestive cardiac failure and death.
OBJECT OF THE INVENTION
It is an object of this invention to provide a composition which will at least partially alleviate problems with operation of the immune system.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In accordance with this invention there is provided a composition to assist immune response comprising a combination of oils selected from Thyme,
Marjoram, Lavender, Rosemary, Cinnamon, Basil and St John’s Wort oils together with Humic Acid. :
The invention further provides for the composition to include amino acids; preferably Arginine and/or Ornithine; and for the Humic Acid to be natural Humic
Acid.
Further features of the invention provide for the oils to be deposited on the Humic
Acid; and for the oils to be dissolved in a solvent, preferably Ethanol, and sprayed onto the Humic Acid.
Further features of the invention provide for the composition to be administered as a food additive or as a water soluble solution added to drinking water. The composition may also be provided and administered as capsules. The dosage is * calculated at 3 to 5g per 100 Kg live body weight per day.
In accordance with another aspect of this invention there is provided a use of the above defined composition in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of an immune response deficiency.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The composition in accordance with this invention is made up of a combination of natural essential oils and natural Humic Acid. The oils are selected from Thyme,
Marjoram, Lavender, Rosemary, Cinnamon, Basil, and St John’s Wort oil. The composition will preferably include all of these oils. This combination is formulated to cover aspects of anti-inflammation, anti-bacterial, anti-parasitic,
anti-viral as well as anti-depressive effects that may arise from the immune suppressive syndrome already mentioned.
The oils are dissolved in an alcohol, preferably 96% Ethanol, and sprayed onto the granular Humic Acid. A residue of the oils remains on evaporation of the
Ethanol. Amino acids in the form of Arginine and Ornithine are then also added.
The composition can be used in any animal type as well as in humans to stimulate and activate a normal immune response after a period of suppression, and to help normalize the DMI (dormant macrophage index).
The Humic Acid in combination with some of the oils has the ability to activate immune cellular response. In particular, it can rectify and normalize cellular responses in T-helper cell function in some cases and again T-suppressor cell function in other cases. The trigger for either T-helper or T-suppressor cell stimulation will be determined by the specific etiology of the immune system : suppression and to reinstate and rectify normal immune responses. There is normally a balance between effector cells and imbalances occur when either the
T-helper function on the one hand is stimulated out of proportion, and again when T-suppressor function is over stimulated. The T-helper 2 cell is active in determining either T-helper or T-suppressor at a specific time, and it is this function that can be influenced by Humic acid/oil combination.
The amino acids aid the fatty changes associated with this syndrome of deficient immune response to rectify normal bone marrow cellularity as well as the restoration of the normal response. In other words, the fatty changes associated with this syndrome are reversed.
The administration of the treatment can either be as a food additive or as a water soluble solution added to the daily intake of water. Alternatively, the composition é may be provided and administered as capsules. The dosage is calculated as 3 to : 5g per 100 Kg live body weight per day.
The DMI (dormant macrophage index) in the bone marrow, which is explained in more detail below, can be used to determine the efficacy of the composition in the treatment of immune suppressed animals.
The method as it is herein described has been carried out on chickens. Bone marrow is taken from the proximal end of the femur head area. This area is used because the anatomical blood supply here is limited. Accordingly, it would host the largest amount of bacteria. The relative low oxygen supply to this part of the bone area through the nutrient artery gives facultative anaerobic bacteria a greater chance to grow and survive.
Using glass slides, microscopic blood smears are made. The smears are stained with any Romanofsky stain to differentiate and identify the different bone marrow cells. Lying freely in the bone marrow are all the different red blood as well as the white blood cell precursors and mature blood cells. Also present are effector cells as part of the immune system. These cells have the ability to engulf the bacteria.
Because the bacteria in question have not been opsonified by antibodies previously produced by the immune system, they are not eliminated through the process of lysosomal enzyme breakdown in phagosomes. The bacteria lie dormant within the cytoplasm of these cells, in this case the macrophage cells.
This complex cell is now called the DMI (dormant macrophage index), as referred to previously, within the bone marrow and represents the grade of the dormant infection within this organ system.
The normal value of these DMI cells can be from 5 to 8%. Anything higher than this value indicates a dormant infective state. Samples from a population can thus be used to test for improvements from treatment with the composition.
Activation of the pathogens referred to will normally only be triggered when the bone marrow is subjected to any stress situation. This is thus also a tool to predict a potential future infection when the bone marrow is under a stressful assault. Without looking at such a sample it would not be anticipated that there is anything wrong in the bone marrow or that there may be the potential of elevation to an infective state. That is why up to now erratic infections would appear from nowhere and without any explanation to the origin of the infection, and generally after a period of stress.
The composition of this invention is directed mainly to rectify and reinstate normal biological processes into the immunological system and eradicate previously induced abnormal chemical entities. The unscrupulous chronic use of antibiotics and totally erratic immunization procedures all add up to totally suppress the immune system and leave it susceptible to infection. It is therefore important to normalize physiological biological systems, through the use of natural organic preparations, and reinstate normal standards of the self ability of all living organisms to launch an immune response and rectify the intrusion of infective agents.
