Neovite

BUY NOW

The sports nutrition market is finally waking up to the benefits of Neovite.  Proven to work for athletes wanting to optimise recovery, build dense lean muscle and maintain the health of their immune system, Neovite contains the hightest quality colostrums.  Neovite is available in limited quantities only, and has been extensively reviewed and researched.

Neovite is dairy protein from milk taken in the first 48 hours after calving and includes colostrum.  Colostrum is probably the first thing you ever tasted!  It is high in protective agents, antibodies and repair factors, including lactoferrin, IGF-1 immunoglobulins and PRP.  It is also rich in glutamine, which has been shown to enhance the immune system and help muscle repair.  It is produced exclusively from New Zealand herds, all of which are certified free from BSE.Colostrum has received a lot of attention as a dietary supplement since the 1990s when it became commercially available.  For thousands of years across many cultures colostrums and first milk have been prized sources of nourishment.  British dairy farmers have given the surplus first milk to their families for hundreds of years, either drinking it straight from the cow or making it into a traditional dessert called "Beestings Pudding".  Elite athletes around the world take colostrum to help their recovery.

Benefits:

  • Supports immune system
  • Helps build and preserve lean muscle
  • Supports digestive health
  • High protein, low carbs & fat (low lactose version available)
  • Assists recovery from exercise
  • Genuine high-quality certified colostrum

Who uses it?
Neovite is currently used thousands of people, but some may be recognisable - such as pro cyclists Gustav Larsen (Team Saxo) and Dan Lloyd and Dan Fleeman (Cervelo), as well as the English and Welsh rugby union squads, Northampton and Sale rugby clubs, and many international rugby players, runners, cyclists and triathletes.

What does it contain?
Colostrum has two groups of components: immune system factors and growth factors.  The key elements in these groups are:Immunoglobulins (A, D, E, G and M) - the most abundant of the immune factors found in colostrum.  IgG neutralises toxins and microbes in the lymph and circulatory system; IgM destroys bacteria while IgE and IgD are highly antiviral.Lactoferrin - an antiviral, anti-bacterial, iron-binding protein with the therapeutic effects in HIV, Cytomegalovirus, herpes, Chronic fatigue syndrome, Candida albicans and other infections.  Lactoferrin helps deprive pathogens of the iron they require to reproduce and releases iron into the red blood cells enhancing oxygenation of tissues.  Lactoferrin also modulates cytokine release and receptors have been found on blood cells such lymphocytes, moncytes, macrophages and platelets.Proline-Rich Polypeptides (PRPs)  these are hormones or hormone-like substances that appear to help regulate some functions of the thymus gland. They appear to stimulate an underactive immune system or inhibit an overactive immune system in autoimmune conditions such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, scleroderma, chronic fatigue syndrome and some allergies and hyper-reactive conditions such as asthma, urticaria and allergic rhinitis (hay fever). 

Growth Factors
Epithelial growth factor (EGF) Insulin-like growth factor-I and II (IGF-1 and IGF-II) Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) Transforming growth factors A & B (TGF-A and B) Growth hormone (GH)  These all help stimulate cell and tissue growth by stimulating DNA formation. Genetically engineered versions of IGF-1 and GH are now marketed as longevity and AIDS drugs. They are found naturally and in high concentrations in colostrum. Several studies show that these growth factors are capable of increasing T-cell production, accelerate healing, balance blood glucose, reduce insulin need, increase muscle and bone growth and repair while metabolising fat for fuel. Studies have also shown that dairy colostrum can increase the serum levels of IGF-1 in male athletes. As it has been shown that IGF-1 in colostrum is only absorbed into the blood stream in fragmented segments, it is likely that this increase in serum IGF-1 levels occurs via the combination of training, conditioning of the digestive tract and possible enhanced stimulation of human IGF-1 synthesis via the intestinal mucosa. 

Leukocytes
stimulate the production of interferon which slows viral reproduction and penetration of cell walls.

Enzymes
lactoperoxidase-thiocyanate, peroxidase and xanthine oxidase destroy bacteria by releasing of hydrogen peroxide.

Lysozyme
a hydrolysing agent and immune system booster capable of destroying bacteria and viruses on contact. This compound destroys the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls leading to the death of such organisms (both gram positive and gram negative organisms are affected). 

Cytokines
interleukins that regulate the duration and intensity of the immune response, are responsible for cell to cell communication, boost T-cell activity and the production of immunoglobulins. Interleukin-10 is strongly anti-inflammatory, especially in connective tissue disorders such as arthritis. 

Trypsin and Protease Inhibitors
prevent the destruction of immune and growth factors in colostrum from being broken down in the GI tract; they also prevent Helicobacter pylori from attaching to the walls of the stomach and can have a beneficial role in the treatment of peptic ulcers.

Lymphokines
hormone-like peptides produced by activated lymphocytes that mediate the immune response.

Oligo-polysaccharides and Glycoconjugates
attract and bind to major enteric pathogens such as Strep., E. coli, Salmonella, Cryptosporidia, Giardia, Entamoeba, Shigella, Clostridium difficile Toxins A & B and Cholera preventing them from attaching or entering the mucous membranes.

Orotic Acid
stops the formation of pyrimidine nucleotides and prevents haemolytic anemia.

Other Immune Factors
some of the documented immune factors include secretory IgA, IgA Specific Helper, B Lactoglobulin, Lactalbumin, Albumin, Prealbumin, Alpha 1-Antitripsin, Alpha 1-Fetoprotein, Alpha 2-macroglobulin, Alpha 2-AP Glycoprotein, C3, C4 and Orosomucoids.
