Health Care

ANTI-VIRALS

METHISOPRINOL

Evidence exists to support the hypothesis that the mechanism of action of methisoprinol involves enhancement of the host cell mediated immune respnse during active viral infection.

Methisoprinol causes an alteration in polyribosomal structure (inner cell) and function in manner that enhances established macromolecular biosynthetic expression of the polyribosomes and impairs the acceptance of foreign messenger material.

Stated simply, methisoprinol enables the bodys immune systems to better withstand viral attack and impeeds viral infiltration of your body's cells.

Clinical experience indicates that methisoprinol acts against all diseases of viral etiology. In a recent article in Time magazine, Time stated that there is hope that amoung other anti-virals methisoprinol can limit the growth of HTLV III, though it is not a cure.

Methisoprinol is extremely safe and has no contraindications. However, patients with a history of gout or impaired renal function should use with caution as inosine, the purine moiety of the drug, is catabolized to uric acid.

Methisoprinol can result in elevation of uric acid in serum or urine.

IMMUN-AID

A unique combination of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and Viralsene designed to work in conjunction with your immune system to suppress viral growth. To get your 100 all natural tabs., mail ck. or m.o. for $19.95 pp. to: Fitness Labs, 70 Greenwich Ave, Suite 327, Dept. A, New York, NY 10011
