ORDER IMMUNEXTRA®
Like nature, your body has the natural ability to protect and heal itself; it happens through your immune system. Research shows a healthy immune system helps prevent most common illnesses. However, stress, poor diet, lack of sleep and even medications can reduce your immune system’s ability to work at its best.
In addition, the immune system’s effectiveness increases from birth until the teenage years, but then undergoes a subtle decline throughout the rest of your life. This decline leads to impairment in coping with infectious agents that can cause disease and illness.
How all-natural ImmunExtra® with Proligna® supports your immune system.

ImmunExtra® is the only immune product containing patented Proligna®, a natural water extract of pinecones that has been shown to enhance the production of human dendritic cells 9 fold in 9 days. More recently, laboratory research has shown that Immunextra reduces the Th2 arm of the immune system while at the same time promoting the Th1 arm of the immune system.
The health benefits of pinecone extract were first documented in 500 A.D. by the Greeks. Since that time, the extract has been used in modern day Japan, where it has long been associated with an increase in health and longevity. Try it to stay healthy. It is one of the only supplements tested to be safe in human studies at three independent medical centers in the United States.

Press Release Details
11/7/2006 | Tampa Bay Research Institute's 25th Anniversary Coincides With Launch of Patented New Botanical Compound
Licensing Agreement with Allera Health Products, Inc.
Helps Bring Tampa Bay Research Institute’s ProLigna™ to Market
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – (Fall 2006) – This year, the Tampa Bay Research Institute (TBRI) marks its 25th anniversary and is also celebrating one of the Institute’s crowning achievements. Through a licensing agreement with TBRI, Allera Health Products, Inc. of St. Petersburg, Fla. is launching ImmunExtraTM, an all-natural supplement that optimizes immune cell activity. The active ingredient in the product is ProLigna™, a compound isolated from a pine cone extract that was researched and patented by TBRI over the course of 15 years.
“It’s incredibly fulfilling for everyone at the Institute to commemorate our 25th anniversary with the launch of a new product that features a compound we have worked so hard to study and develop,” said Akiko Tanaka, Ph.D., president and co-founder of TBRI. “The public can now benefit from the extensive work that went into the development of ProLigna™.”
The Beginning: Tampa Bay Research Institute
When Dr. Tanaka founded TBRI in 1981 with colleague Dr. Neihan Nonoyama, the Institute’s first president who passed away in 1995, they set out to scientifically examine the opportunities for optimizing the body’s natural immune system using a combination of conventional Western medicine and the natural remedies associated with Eastern medicine. TBRI is Florida’s first independent biomedical research facility, and it is housed in a 33,000-square-foot facility on Roosevelt Boulevard in the Gateway area of St. Petersburg, Fla.
“Herbal medicine is the oldest form of healthcare known to mankind,” pointed out
Dr. Tanaka. “In my homeland of Japan, people have used the pine cone extract as a natural remedy for centuries. It has also been documented that the ancient Greeks made use of its natural healing properties.”
Scientific Recognition
TBRI pioneered the discovery of the relationship between viral infections and cancer. The Institute holds a number of patents for its discoveries. In addition, the TBRI was awarded the first HIV/AIDS study grant in Florida.
First Commercial Product
ImmunExtraTM is the first commercial product based on ProLigna™. The product represents a great example of how the concepts of high technology and folk remedies can come together to create innovative new products. ImmunExtraTM will be sold initially online at www.immunextra.com and through direct response television ads. The product is being launched in the Tampa area because Tampa/St. Petersburg is the birthplace of the compound.
Looking to the Future
“We’re very proud of the contributions we’ve made to the progress of medicine over the past 25 years,” added Dr. Tanaka. “But we’re completely focused on the future and the new discoveries that await us. One of the reasons it’s so important to bring ProLigna™ to market is that it will mean additional funding for our research. We strongly believe this compound has other, very significant health-related applications.”
TBRI’s study of pine cone extract will continue as researchers determine its potential.
