Biothera Showcases Wellmune at Coach Conference

NASHVILLEBiotech company Biothera showcased its flagship ingredient, Wellmune WGP, at the Professional Baseball Strength & Conditioning Coaches Society (PBSCCS) 2012 Product Show & Symposium. The company focused on discussing the ingredient's benefits to strengthen athletes' immune system.

According the Biothera, Wellmune activates key immune cells to keep the body healthy, which is a primary concern of athletes. Hard workouts can temporarily weaken the body's immune defenses, making athletes vulnerable to sickness.

Clinical research with marathoners, cyclists and others enduring high physical stress demonstrated how Wellmune WGP can strengthen immune defenses before, during and after exercise," said Richard Mueller, Biothera chief executive officer. We believe Wellmune would benefit pro baseball players whose long seasons and extensive travel constantly stress their bodies and immune systems."

In October, the company presented Wellmune to dietitians at the Nutrition and Dietetics Food and Nutrition Conference.
