A novel probiotic strain from Japan, KP08, promotes the balanced production of interferon-, which supports a healthy immune response. This unique probiotic formula provides highly synergistic immune system effects. Reg\u0301Activ IMMUNE &#038; VITALITY also contains essential B vitamins, vitamin C, and a vegan-derived vitamin D to support immune health, balanced metabolism, and promote energy production.<\/p>\n<p>Together, these synergetic ingredients promote a balanced immune response and help maintain energy levels on a cellular level. No other product on the market today approaches immune health in this way.<\/p>\n<p><b>Is <i>Lactobacillus fermentum<\/i> ME-3 a probiotic and what is its function in strengthening the immune system?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>Lactobacillus fermentum<\/i> ME-3 is a patented strain of beneficial bacteria that contains a Glutathione-boosting probiotic that is the cornerstone of the entire Reg\u2019Activ line of supplements. ME-3 releases the \u201cMaster Antioxidant,\u201d Glutathione, directly into the intestines, bypassing the normal digestive breakdown and ensuring the availability of more Glutathione to the body.<\/p>\n<p>Researchers recognize the significance of Glutathione\u2019s role in cell detoxification and renewal, which helps reinforce the immune system. However, until Reg\u2019Activ, glutathione supplements of the past have been only minimally effective since Glutathione degrades during ingestion. It\u2019s much more effective to take Reg\u2019Activ and allow the process of generating Glutathione within the body.<\/p>\n<p>ME-3 works as a glutathione activator that boosts the production of the antioxidant and helps the body use it more efficiently. Regular use of Reg\u2019Activ products offers the best option for promoting and preserving healthy glutathione levels in the body.<\/p>\n<p><b>What is <i>Lactobacillus Brevis<\/i> KP08, and why is it added to the Reg\u2019Activ Immune &#038; Vitality formula?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>Lactobacillus brevis<\/i> KP08 is a strain of probiotic bacteria that provides unique immune system-supporting properties. Studies report that KP08 promotes interferon-alpha production and the activity of 2-5 synthetase. Both functions are potent activities in the immune system\u2019s handling common day-to-day challenges.<\/p>\n<p>KP08 also supports natural killer cells\u2019 regular activity (NK). Natural killer (NK) cells are an essential part of the body\u2019s frontline immune response\u2014addressing common challenges outside the body and maintaining healthy cellular apoptosis within the body.*<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/sandonspaldingstaging.com\/DirtDr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Reg'Activ_Immune-Vitality-Box-Amazon.png\"><\/p>\n<p>As of 2016 there are 15 publications on the various functions and benefits of KP08 (KB290) that appear in the PubMed database. When searching for information about this species on your own, it is helpful to know that the official name of <i>Lactobacillus Brevis<\/i> KP08 is &#8220;<i>Lactobacillus Brevis<\/i> subspecies <i>coagulans<\/i>.\u201d It is also sometimes referred to as KB290. Sometimes a bacterial strain will have more than one commercial name. Both KP08 and KB290 refer to <i>Lactobacillus Brevis<\/i> subspecies coagulans.<\/p>\n<p>KP08 was discovered in Japan and is quite popular due to its proven immune system-supporting properties. Reg\u2019Activ Immune &#038; Vitality formula is the first probiotic product outside of Japan to utilize KP08.*<\/p>\n<p><b>Why does Reg\u2019Activ Immune &#038; Vitality contain only 4 billion ME-3 bacteria per daily dose (2 capsules), whereas Cardio Wellness and Detox &#038; Liver Health provide 6 billion ME-3 bacteria per dose?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The lower ME-3 dosage in the Immune &#038; Vitality formula \u201cmakes room\u201d for the added KP08 strain. It was determined this was appropriate for the Immune &#038; Vitality formula since KP08 adds powerful synergistic support for immune system activity.*<\/p>\n<p>Original page: <a href=\"https:\/\/essentialformulas.com\/newsletter-explanation-regactiv-immune-vitality\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/essentialformulas.com\/newsletter-explanation-regactiv-immune-vitality\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><\/body><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"dirtdoctor-library":[],"class_list":["post-14235","library","type-library","status-publish","hentry","category-e","no-post-thumbnail"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Explanation of the Science Behind Reg\u00b4activ\u00ae Immune &amp; Vitality\u2122 - The Dirt Doctor<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Explanation of the Science Behind Reg\u00b4activ\u00ae Immune &amp; Vitality\u2122 - The Dirt Doctor\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Reg\u00b4Activ Immune &#038; Vitality Explanation of the Science Behind Reg\u00b4Activ\u00ae IMMUNE &#038; VITALITY\u2122 By Ross Pelton, RPh, PhD, CCN Scientific Director, Essential Formulas Ross Pelton Reg\u2019Activ\u00ae IMMUNE &#038; VITALITY combines the glutathione-producing probiotic Lactobacillus fermentum ME-3 with Lactobacillus brevis KP08.
