Vital Immune is a unique anti-microbial peptide compound of amino acids, which have the properties necessary to fight bacteria without damaging normal cells. Until now, the reasons why crocodiles avoided wound infection were unknown.

On May 31st, 2000, a documentary aired on BBC entitled The Secret Life of Crocodiles, which was the origin for the discovery of a unique anti-microbial peptide in crocodiles. Jill Fullerton-Smith, a senior producer in the Science Department at BBC, decided to investigate, however, she couldn’t find any scientists in the world working on the immune response of the crocodile and was on the verge of abandoning the idea. She then saw a newspaper article about a biologist who noticed that a frog in his lab has lost a limb and yet within in few days had healed. The biologist now owned a multi-million dollar research company developing the antibiotic they had found in the frog. Jill rang him, and on his advice decided to hire an American microbiologist to look for a particular particle in the blood of the crocodile. Nobody had ever looked for these peptides in the reptile before. Michael Mosley, Executive Producer of Living Proof, agreed to fund a film following the collection of the blood from wild Australian crocodiles and the search for the peptide. An amazing new anti-microbial peptide was discovered in the blood, and the BBC and the university are lodging patent rights. Greg Dyke personally announced the discovery to the world’s press.

This quote from BBC Director-General Greg Dyke describes the manner in which a unique anti-microbial peptide was discovered: "Tonight I can reveal that Living Proof, our science documentary on BBC ONE, has done something very unusual: they’ve actually helped find and isolate a protein which kills resistant bacteria and which could form the basis of a new antibiotic. On a trip to film salt-water crocodiles in Australia, our producer noticed something that surprised her; despite the horrendous injuries the crocs inflict on each other, their wounds rarely get infected. She discussed this with a young croc expert who agreed that it would be interesting to try and find out why. So they set off together to collect blood samples from wild crocodiles. After many adventures they got their blood samples and last week a leading research institute isolated, from these samples, what I’m told is a novel anti microbial peptide. In tests this substance kills strains of virulent bacteria that are resistant to all standard antibiotics."

This quote from Dr. James Perran Ross, a croc researcher at the Florida Museum of Natural History, describes the commonplace occurrence of crocodiles surviving traumatic injuries stemming from a unique anti-microbial peptide: “They can sustain the most frightful injuries. In territorial fights they commonly tear each other's legs off. They go away and sulk for a while and seem to heal up. You often find animals in the wild with missing limbs, missing tails -- what must have been very serious injuries. I found one in the wild with the whole of its lower jaw torn off, all healed up and swimming around. It was a bit skinny but had obviously survived that very traumatic event. So I think their inherent toughness is one aspect. They are also long-lived. They routinely live for decades.”

This statement from Animal Planet.com explains in real simple detail exactly why crocodiles don’t suffer from infections: Surprisingly, very few crocodiles seem to suffer from infections. We recently discovered the secret behind their remarkable ability — an anti-microbial peptide in their blood. Crocodiles have one of the most efficient immune systems of any animal we know, which is a real advantage for them living in bacteria-filled water and mud. Wounds are common from fights or injuries from prey, and being able to fight off potential infection is clearly very important. The only time crocodiles suffer from infections is when they become stressed as their health declines. This affects their immune system and they can suddenly become susceptible to common bacteria they would normally shrug off. This can be seen in captive crocodiles kept in poor conditions, or wild subordinate or injured crocodiles unable to secure a territory and enough food to survive.

ANCIENT CULTURES & THEIR BELIEFS

Ancient cultures especially pygmies believed that to eat an enemy or powerful creature which they hunted for food would endow them with the power of the enemy or creature so devoured. This barbaric practice of eating one’s enemy would not be tolerated in this modern world of today but, the inbuilt instinct of these ancient cultures were not so very far from the truth.

With modern scientific technology the truth of these ancient cultures and their beliefs are laid bare by modern science. By scientifically extracting these properties and their proteins from the blood of creatures such as the Australian Salt Water Crocodile (Crocodylus Porusus) all sorts of modern natural proteins are being discovered which can protect human beings from diseases that are kept active by deadly viruses and bacteria in the body also enabling faster healing of wounds.

The amino acid protein configurations (which protect these creatures in virus and bacteria infested environments) are then concentrated by the use of a special catalyst to increase the multiplication ratio of the protein thereby resulting in a powerful yet natural protein for human application.

Vital Immune does not require a prescription or medical consultation before being taken as it is a natural alternative to Antibiotics or drugs which have failed to kill the virulent viruses or bacteria that have developed an immunity to the current antibiotics and drugs produced by modern medicine.

There are Good and Bad proteins circulating in many forms on this planet of ours. Take for instance the Bad protein carried by a bird in 1918. That bird transmitted the protein content to a human being who then mutated the protein inside the body and transmitted that same protein in its mutant form to other human beings resulting in the death of some 20 million people.

Hard to believe? Absolutely true if, one cares to check out the records for that period. That is why the world scientists of today are so very worried about the SARS epidemic currently being spread by birds developing or mutating into a similar bad protein culminating into a similar epidemic like 1918.

The FDA makes us tell you that, Dietary suggestions offered are not meant to substitute for medical diagnosis and physician management. Micronutrients, i.e. nutraceuticals are not intended to be used to treat, cure or ameliorate a disease or abnormal condition. However, the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 states that optimal nutrition has been shown by scientists to be essential for good health, to prevent disease and to restore health. Thus, normal biochemical synthesis of structure/function compounds by the cells of the body under the control of genes is supported by dietary supplementation. While micronutrients are virtually non-toxic food substances, there can be allergies and hypersensitivity to virtually any substance taken into the body. If an untoward response is experienced, dietary supplements should be discontinued. Please, Do not buy this product if you give the FDA any Credence!
