A.I. Formula®
What Is A.I. Formula?
A.I. Formula is a broad spectrum, synergistic combination
of concentrated extracts which inhibit the discharge
of histamine from activated mast cells or basophils
and maintain healthy leukotriene and thromboxane
production.*
Uses For A.I. Formula
• A.I. Formula offers a safe and natural way to regulate
histamine production and other immune modulators,
thus moderating the inflammatory response at the
cellular level.*
• Quercetin inhibits the synthesis of enzymes necessary
for the release and degranulation of histamine.*
• Bromelain inhibits the production of kinins and fibrin,
compounds that promote the inflammatory process.*
• Curcuma longa, or turmeric, maintains healthy histamine
release and immune cell response.*
• Ginger moderates leukotriene and thromboxane synthesis,
important mechanisms for cellular and tissue support.*
The Source of A.I. Formula
This formula contains: bromelain (2400 gdu/gram), a
proteolytic enzyme from the stem of the pineapple plant;
Curcuma longa(turmeric) extract standardized to contain
97% curcuminoids; quercetin, which is primarily derived
from the Brazilian botanical dimophandra; ginger extract
( Zingiber officinale) (root) (standardized to contain 5%
gingerols); vitamin C (ascorbyl palmitate) derived from
corn dextrose fermentation.

longa, which is not recommended for individuals
