Like Fleming's discovery of Penicillin, Dr. Gustavo Bounous looked to nature, where answers to complex medical problems are waiting to be found. After immigrating to the US to complete his medical residency, Bounous moved to Canada in 1963 and began a career that led him to dietary therapy research. His work earned him the medal of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, awarded in 1965. In 1978, now a leading scientific and medical expert in nutrition research, Bounos joined with a colleague and isolated a protein in milk whey that strengthens the human immune system. The resultant product, Immunocal "RM," is being used as a complement to treatments for AIDS, cancer, ALS, chronic fatigue syndrome and in conjunction with chemotherapy treatments. Breakthrough in Cell-Defense provides accessible medical insight into how the human immune system and Bounous' treatment work.

If you or anyone you know is coping with a chronic disease, Breakthrough in Cell-Defense will give you a sense of where your treatment came from, or where it should be going.
