Phyto-Cyto is a unique herbal compound that activates cellular defense mechanisms in the presence of abnormal cell function. Its key herbal ingredients encourage an optimal metabolic, tissue and cellular response when the body is exposed to invading pathogens and environmental stressors that compromise the immune system. Phyto-Cyto works by supporting the body’s natural internal defenses with select ingredients classified as nature’s Biological Response Modifiers. The featured ingredient is an extract derived from the Pacific Yew tree, which contains a family of powerful compounds called taxanes. Interestingly, the drug Taxol, a popular chemotherapeutic agent, was originally derived from only one of the 27 taxanes found in the Pacific Yew.

Promotes Immune System Health
When cells are distressed and are no longer functioning in a healthy way, the immune system steps in to protect healthy cells from becoming damaged as well. Phyto-Cyto is designed to support the body’s natural immune defense against cells that are no longer functioning properly by promoting a healthy immune and lymphatic system. By promoting processes of elimination, it naturally assists the body in the disposal of cellular debris and can be considered a cleansing tonic.

Biologic Response Modifiers
The body’s normal and healthy internal defense response to harmful pathogens and abnormal cells involves a team of immune system defenders, including cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer cells. Phyto-Cyto contains natural Biologic Response Modifiers that support the body’s ability to defend itself from damaged cells and other immune system stressors. The formula increases these internal defenses and lends support to correct abnormal cell promotion or function. Specifically, these plant extracts help control mircrotubule stability, as well as normalize mitochondrial and cytoplasmic production of ATP (cellular energy).

2 ml (60 drops) in water or juice, 1-3x daily

Paw Paw
Paw Paw seed and bark is rich in complex compounds known as acitogenins. These compounds are derivatives of long chain fatty acids and are powerful inhibitors of mitochondrial and cytoplasmic production of ATP (energy) in cancer cells. Acetogenins have been found to induce apoptosis (cell death) mainly due to necrosis. They are also especially effective against multi-drug resistance.

Pacific Yew
The Pacific Yew tree has traditionally been used by many cultures for thousands of years for a variety of ailments. The Pacific Yew tree contains a group of unique alkaloids referred to as taxanes that are powerful supporters of immune system function. Modern research points to the value of taxanes found in this tree in improving the efficacy of taxane-based chemotherapeutic agents to which some tumors are resistant. Pacific Yew has also been shown to disrupt microtubulin formation in cancer cells.

Madagascar Periwinkle
Rosy periwinkle, often referred to as vinca rosea, has a long tradition in medicine, particularly for diabetes. The plant contains a group of compounds referred as Vinca alkaloids. Modern research has established these compounds as cytotoxics based on their anti-mitotic and anti-microtubule activity.

Mistletoe
Mistletoe is one of the most popular herbs used in Europe for hypertension. Traditionally, it has been employed as a nervine, antispasmodic and circulatory tonic. Modern research demonstrates mistletoe’s role in protecting and stimulating the immune system. Mistletoe also increases natural killer cells and has shown to be cytotoxic to a number of different tumor types.

Camptotheca acuminata
Research conducted on the unique properties possessed by this plants primary constituent, camptothecin, determined that it inhibits topoisomerase I, an enzyme needed for DNA replication. These findings greatly increased interest in this constituent as a possible anti-tumor agent thus it has become commonly referred to as the “Cancer tree”.

Poke Root
Poke root was one of the most common herbs used by the Eclectic Physicians as a lymphatic and alterative for glandular drainage. It also supports the body’s natural resistance to microscopic invaders, including viruses.
