What is RM-10?
For thousands of years people have used herbs to promote healthy immune
system function and ward off many diseases. RM-10 is a combination of
10 certified organic medicinal mushrooms synergistically balanced with
Aloe Vera and the healing herb Uncaria tomentosa (Cat's Claw). These
unique nutrients have been specifically chosen to feed and nourish the
immune system. Each of the powerful ingredients in RM-10 have been
pre-digested using the Poten-Zyme process of bio-fermentation,
enhancing absorption and utilization while also providing beneficial
probiotics and enzymes. RM-10 was formulated by Jordan S. Rubin,
N.M.D., for his grandmother who had been diagnosed with metastatic
cancer (see testimonial section). Garden of Life believes that RM-10
is creating a new standard in immune system supplementation.
An Imbalanced Immune System results in the following:
- Frequent Colds and Flu
- Viral Disorders
- Allergies and Asthma
- Inflammatory Bowel Disease
- Chronic Fatigue
- Hepatitis
- Fibromyalgia
- Cancer
- Candida Yeast Overgrowth
- Diabetes
- Parasitic Infections
- Multiple Sclerosis
- Psoriasis and Eczema
- Aids
- Rheumatoid Arthritis
- Lupus
Why take RM-10™?
Medicinal mushrooms have been used traditionally for thousands of years
for their remarkable healing potential and are now being validated by
medical science for their tremendous therapeutic value. Preliminary
laboratory studies have shown that RM-10™ improves the performance of
natural killer cell and macrophage activity. In addition, test results
indicate that RM-10™ enhances innate immunity and exhibits anti-tumoral
properties. According to these studies, medicinal mushrooms and their
extracts:
- May have powerful immunomodulatory
activity
- May increase overall energy and
enhance immune system function
- May have potent anti-tumor activity
and inhibit the growth of existing tumors
- May help lower cholesterol and can
prevent and treat cardiovascular disease
- May have anti-viral and anti-bacterial
properties
- May protect against harmful effects of
radiation
What's in RM-10™?
Ganoderma lucidum (Reishi): Appearing in ancient
Chinese herb texts more than 1500 years ago, this unique herb was
considered to be the "mushroom of immortality" and the
"great protector". Reishi appears to vitally aid in the immune
system and have a strong effect against tumors and cancer. A potential
treatment for arthritis, it has been further shown to enhance the
cardiovascular system and is found to prevent and treat hardening of the
arteries, angina, and shortness of breath associated with
coronary heart disease.
Cordyceps
sinensis:
Commonly used for impotence and fertility, Cordyceps sinensis greatly
improves immune system function and strengthens the body's resistance to
bacteria and viruses. In addition, it has been used in China as a tonic
for the lungs and kidneys to relieve excessive fatigue, anemia, and
depression.
Coriolus
versicolor:
Considered to be a very powerful antioxidant, anti-bacterial, anti-tumoral,
and immune system enhancer, Coriolus versicolor has been helpful in
treating and decreasing the recurrence of gastric cancer and
significantly inhibiting the growth of leukemia cells.
Lentinula edodes (Shiitake):
Extracts from this mushroom have been shown to be effective against Type
1 Herpes Simplex virus, depressed immune system function, cancer, AIDS,
environmental allergies, candida infections, as well as frequent colds
and flu. Shiitake has been used in the Orient for prevention of high
blood pressure, controlling cholesterol levels, and as a potent kidney
and liver tonic.
Agaricus
blazei: Has
amazing immune enhancing effects on the body as well as anti-tumor,
anti-viral, and blood sugar lowering properties. It also helps to form
the enzyme tyrosinase which is used by the body to synthesize the
protein melanin. Melanin gives color to the skin and is a vital
component of skin and semen.
Grifola frondosa
(Maitake): In
Japan, the Maitake mushroom is called the "king of the
mushrooms", and many researchers believe it has anti-tumor effects.
In the feudal era of Japan, Maitake was exchanged for its weight in
silver by local lords who in turn offered it to the Shogun. Maitake can
be used on a daily basis to promote healthy metabolic function and
maintain vibrant immunity.
Hericium
erinaceus:
Commonly prescribed in traditional Chinese medicine for stomach ailments
and for prevention of GI tract cancer, Hericium erinaceus has also been
shown to be effective as an immune enhancer, nerve tonic and a support
for respiratory system function.
Poria cocos: This herb
is valued for its easy assimilation, helping the body shed surplus
fluid, and aiding digestion. It is further used to strengthen the spleen
and stomach, eliminate phlegm, calm the heart, and lower blood sugar
levels.
Tremella
fuciformus: A
highly prized health food commonly prepared as a soup to strengthen the
lungs, restore physical vitality, improve mental acuity, and replenish
body fluids. It is recommended in China for weakness after child birth,
constipation, abnormal menstruation, gastritis, and to reduce fever.
Polyporus
umbellatus: In
a Chinese clinical study of 146 patients, Polyporus umbellatus was used
to decrease the recurrence of bladder cancer by nearly 50%. It has been
useful in the treatment of urinary tract infections and may limit
leukemia cell proliferation. It is also a potent immune enhancer,
antioxidant, anti-bacterial, and lung and respiratory strengthener.
Aloe Vera: Aloe Vera has been used by nearly every
civilization dating back over 6,500 years to the Egyptians. Aloe is
effective at reducing internal and external inflammation and helping to
regulate blood sugar levels. It is a powerful antioxidant, containing
anti-bacterial and anti-viral nutrients that support the immune system.
Garden of Life® uses only certified organic whole leaf, non-isolate
aloe vera gel that is never pasteurized or preserved.
Uncaria
tomentosa:
Herbal practitioners around the world have used Uncaria tomentosa (Cat's
Claw) to treat a variety of diseases and inflammatory conditions
including arthritis, AIDS, allergies, dermatological problems, ulcers,
colitis, irritable bowel syndrome, and Crohn's disease. It further helps
to lower blood pressure, reduce inflammation, and prevent the spread of
tumors and viral infections.
The Multi-Compound Approach
Many nutritional immune formulas primarily focus on a single compound
vs. a "multi-compound" approach. We believe however, that the
beneficial effects of these compounds are greatly enhanced when they are
used in combinations, permitting synergistic interactions to occur.
RM-10™ was
specifically created to be a multi-faceted support system for immune
disorders.
For much of the last hundred years
science has been searching for a cure for cancer, arthritis, and even
the common cold. Most of the research has been focused on finding a
"magic bullet" in the form of an antibiotic, vaccine or
anti-inflammatory. All the while, inside our own body lies the most
powerful cure for what ails us, our immune system. The immune system is
a person’s primary defense against disease.
