Healthy Origins EpiCor 500 mg, 60 Veggie Capsules - Featuring Clinically Studied Dried Yeast Fermentate - Supports Immune Function, Seasonal Wellness & Healthy Respiratory Health - 2 Month Supply

UPDATE: 1/2/18 - IT HAS BEEN SEVEN YEARS WITHOUT COLDS OR FLU. Healthy Origins EpiCor has no additives - I have been told it is more difficult to encapsulate without flow agents. Thank you Healthy Origins for continuing to produce your 500 mg EpiCor - additive-free! EPICOR IS AMAZING! EpiCor balances, rather than boosts the immune system. Have seen it do wonders in many areas - the kind of side effect we can all use - where the body improves in other ways than expected. At the time of this posting, have not had a cold or flu since I happened upon a product containing EpiCor 3+ years ago, and other issues seem to be improving, as well. I am thankful the competitive market has brought it into the realm of affordability for the majority. One site advertises "EpiCor acts like a multiple vitamin for your immune system". With consistent, continuous EpiCor supplementation - if one contracts anything - it is more of a whimper, instead of a debilitative bang. My first time taking an EpiCor product, I was experiencing flu-like symptoms and then suddenly swollen and suffering with an infected tooth. I had the product with EpiCor, and not feeling well enough to venture out - I decided to see if the supplement on hand I took some, went to sleep - upon wakening I could feel a difference. I took EpiCor 3x day, and after about 72 hours, all signs of the flu and tooth infection were gone - WITHOUT any medications or dental treatment. Everyone's body is different, but this was my experience. It was so remarkable - I called the company which produced the product to learn more. EpiCor improves us in areas we do not expect and the benefits are innumerable - there are no known side effects, it does not interfere with over-the-counter medications or any of the tested prescriptive medications. It has been shown to aid digestion (even IBS disappears), strengthen the skin and mucous membranes (the body's first lines of defense), lessen tissue damage and inflammation. If one has ANY type of ailment, especially those associated with the immune system - EpiCor may help. Do not expect overnight results with a long term illness, as it gradually builds within the system. Since EpiCor activates the NK cells, it seems reasonable it may help fight cancer. I know of one who used it with chemotherapy for liver cancer - with EpiCor they were able to continue working during treatment - and the results were positive. Perhaps the EpiCor protects the healthy cells, while the chemo sets about destroying the cancer cells. Everyone I know who has taken EpiCor - for various health issues - claim benefit in either avoiding illness, or, eventually conquering it. It is remarkable because one capsule daily balances, rather than boosts, one's immune system. Our routine is to use EpiCor with a Vitamin C/Bioflavonoids 500mg supplement (as everyone needs C, and Bioflavonoids are necessary for C assimilation), plus 15mg Zinc - supportive nutrients, since our combination product is no longer available. Not saying this is necessary, but it is what we do in this household - extended family members use EpiCor without the extra supplemental support. XPC, the farm animal supplement which preceded EpiCor, is known to increase animal survivability. Many know the story of the XPC supplement dust, which kept the plant manufacturing workers so healthy the insurance provider began making inquiries as to "why"? Glad they asked - as we now have EpiCor. The longer one takes EpiCor their health continually improves, likely in ways we do not even realize. I am impressed with the story about a man who worked in the XPC manufacturing facility for 30+ years. He was born with RP (retinitis pigmentosa), but after going to work in the plant - his eye disease never progressed. Unfortunately, during this same time span, his twin sister, born with the same RP, gradually lost her sight. THIS SUPPLEMENT IS WORTH TRYING ! It is impossible to prove exactly why one does not become ill, yet, these capsules are now about 25 cents each on Amazon - isn't the potential of protecting one's health, and balancing one's immune system worth the nominal cost? P.S. One may find information regarding EpiCor's seven clinical trials at Embria Health Sciences' site.

I have suffered for years with IBS. I have tried so many things to settle it down that I have lost count. Nothing has worked like this product for settling everything down. My only complaint is that because I am now digesting food better, I gained a little weight. But that is a small price to pay to have intestinal peace and quiet. I read everything on the company website, so I assume it will also help keep me healthy, but for me that is icing on the cake. I am taking it 2-3 times per day, or at the first sign of intestinal upset. It quiets things down in about 30 minutes. Addition 12-13-14 I am going to elaborate on the above. Not only have I have been suffering from intestinal tract problems for my entire life, since my childhood, I have had multiple recurring ear infections as a child and bladder infections as an adult. I have been diagnosed with IBS, fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, I have MTHFR mutations, and in May, 2013 found out that on top of all that, I was suffering from Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome, aka, mold illness. I have suffered for years from all kinds of food intolerances and allergies, Mast Cell Activation Disorder, and have lived on antihistamines from my early 30's (I am now 63), taking the high doses that are characteristic of people with MCAD, to the point that the pharmacy programs would flag me as taking too much antihistamines, but it was the only way I could live. I have had to be so careful with my diet not to eat anything that would upset my system, and it is frankly impossible to do. There's always something to set off my touchy intestinal tract. I have tried all kinds of stuff, butyrate, colostrum, all the active form B vitamins for the MTHFR mutations, chromium, selenium, TMG, DMG, Wobenzym, ALA, Astaxanthin, Bromelain, Quercetin, GABA, Glutathione, Immune XL, Iodine, magnesium, molybdenum, carnitine, black cumin seed extract, phenibut, royal jelly, propolis, CD, all kinds of digestive aids, CSM/zeolite/charcoal for mold illness, all kinds of probiotics, colon hydrotherapy, liver cleanses, meditation, biofeedback, energy balancing sessions, hypnosis, Kalcker's worming protocol... and that's not even a complete list!I have an entire cupboard stuffed with things that I tried that really did not help me. Nothing has given the sense of well being I have gotten since starting Epicor less than two weeks ago, and nothing has gotten at the intestinal tract problems like EpiCor. EpiCor shuts it down, I mean, just shuts down the intestinal tract problems. No more waking up at 3 am with a roiling intestinal tract, not being able to get back to sleep, in part due to corresponding knee and leg pain I would get with the intestinal roiling. I have suffered from insomnia, too, for several years. It feels like EpiCor is reordering my intestinal biome. I am eating things again that I thought I could not eat again (which as I mentioned is a minor problem because I have gained a little weight). The maintenance dose of Epicor is 1 500 mg capsule per day. I am taking 3-4 caps per day, one with each meal and at bedtime. Initially I was taking one in the morning and if I had any intestinal roiling or gas, I would take an EpiCor and within 20-30 minutes it would be gone. But then I started taking it on a regular basis with each meal and at bedtime, and now I don't get any intestinal roiling or gas. I told the young clerk at the co-op today that I hoped she would feel as good today as I do, because I feel great! I feel better, have more energy and am sleeping better, and taking less of the prescription sleep aid I have had to take to get any sleep, and am taking less antihistamines. I slept through the night all last night until 6:30 am on only half of the prescription sleep aid. Epicor is so much more than promised on the company website or any of the other testimonials or material I have read about it, because none of that material mentioned the intestinal benefits I have experienced from it and amelioration of all kinds of other problems I have had. It is dealing with issues for which I have not found anything to work in years of trying about everything I could. Oh, and it stopped my hot flashes cold. I have always suspected that part of the cause of the hot flashes was intestinal, part hormonal. I found something to deal with the hormonal part of it recently when I had a Zyto reading, that recommended Palmarosa essential oil for me. There is nothing in the literature to support this, but for me, it has balanced my hormones, and it reduced the hot flashes. But I was still waking up sweating, and even if I managed to sleep all night and not wake up, as soon as I would wake up in the morning, within a few minutes I would sweat. The EpiCor has stopped that. No more hot flashes. Obviously, my results may not be indicative of yours, but if you have any of the issues I have (and I have a bunch) it would be worth a try. There are a lot of people whose reviews I have been reading not only on Amazon but other sites that sell Epicor that are very happy with this product, and that now certainly includes me. If I could give this product 6 stars, I would. I am now sending it to someone with Crohn's, and to a relative with many of the same issues I have, to see if it will help them, too.

Have been taking product for years. Trying this brand because it was cheaper.

I have never written a product review ever, have not been offered free products and am not an employee or friend of the makers of Epicor. My sole reason for writing this review is to share with you my personal experience. Last Saturday I came down with a very severe case of a viral cold and my nose would not stop dripping no matter what I did. I spent Saturday and Sunday in bed, used antihistamines, zinc lozenges hoping I would get better but without success. I wasn't sure how I was going to work on Monday so Sunday evening at 8:30 pm I looked up in my supplement cabinet and found a bottle of Epicor that I had purchased in 2015 and took one with my dinner. 2 hrs. later my nose stopped dripping and I felt better, just like it says on the bottle. Never before I have taken a supplement and found it to work like that. Monday morning when I got up I still had some nose drip but not like the days before. I took one more Epicor with breakfast and went to work. By Monday afternoon I felt better still and at night took one more with dinner. Tuesday morning my nose was dry as if nothing happened unlike the past where the cold aftermath would linger for a week with headaches, sinus pressure and sore throats. I have used many different supplements for various conditions in the past 20 years. No other supplement even comes close to fulfilling its claim like Epicor does. I have now decided to keep taking one a day to build my immunity so I don't have to suffer like this in the future.

Love, love, love!

I first began taking this when it was in it's original form, known as "Diamond V - XPC", and when it began being produced in capsule form, switched to "Pure Immune Plus", and now, to EpiCor. I had been diagnosed with CLL (Chronic Lymphacytic Leukemia in 2005, and now am told my Leukemia is in "total remission", so much as to be "non-existent", according to my doctor. Will continue taking EpiCor for as long as I can get it.

Great....
