Our LactORN is the only probiotic supplement in the market that specifically grows the ORNs

Our new LactORN probiotic supplement supports the restoration of an immune system compromised by stress, thereby increasing the ability of the body to fight infections.

LactORN contains the probiotic Lactobacillus casei grown in a way to retain its natural oligoribonucleotides. Plus it contains the prebiotic inulin derived from organic chicory root. Take one tsp 2 or 3 times a week for immune support.

ORNs set off a chain reaction of beneficial events, initiated through our immune cells, first in our mouth, and then small intestines, that upregulate our immune system. 30 AUs of ORNs is sufficient to upregulate the human immune system through the oral cavity. Our new LactORN provides 30 AUs of ORNs per one level teaspoon.

LactORN: Lactobacillus ORNs

This is the next generation probiotics. It fits within the probiotic family, yet it provides a very different function and prupose.

The focus of this product is the delivery of the Lactobacillus ORNs into the oral cavity.

LactORN provides Lactobacillus casei plus its oligoribonucleotides (ORNs). We added the prebiotic inulin (derived from organic chicory root).

What are the ORNs and why are they the "the next generation probiotic"?

ORNs are the RNA fragments of varying lengths that naturally resides within the cytoplasm of all bacteria. When a bacteria encounters a new environment like our mouth it releases its ORNs into the oral cavity. This sends a message to the releasing bacteria to immediately divide and multiply in this new environment. The ORNs themselves are stimulatory to our innate immune system in our mouth.

ORNs help our immune system to be more alert to possible invasion by viral or bacterial pathogens, but they also help protect our immune system for overreacting. They help in the restoration of an immune system compromise by stress.

The optimal amount of ORNs is around 30 AUs (roughly comparible to 900 micrograms). A cup of raw milk provides around 30 AUs of ORNs from the bacteria that is naturally present. By the way, this product plus all of our synbiotic products are totally dairy and soy free.

Now, why the next generation? As I said above when we grow probiotics organisms for supplementation, normally the supernatant is not retained. In the case of our Supernatant Synbiotic we do put back the supernatant but the ORNs are still damaged in the process so they don't have the same stimulatory effect as freshly released ORNs which is what the LactORN product provides.

We have stayed true to the pioneering work of Marshall (2007) who researched the beneficial use of Lactobacillus casei oligoribonucleotides for over 20 years in many families of animal groups, from shrimp to fish, mice, pig, cows, and humans.

ORNs are a very important new ingredient to be aware of for its powerful effect on the immune system.

We lack one of the most important nutrients in our diet.

Certain good bacteria, grown specifically to preserve its Oligoribonucleotides (ORNs), supply a missing important nutrient that stimulates our very immune system to be more alert and ready to protect us from possible pathogens; and accomplishing this without over-stimulating the immune system. What are these nutrient elements, ORNs, and why are they missing in our diets?

Oligoribonucleotides (ORNs) are fragments of genetic material, the RNA pieces (micro RNA) that reside within the cytoplasm of all bacteria. When we eat unprocessed, fermented foods (e.g., raw milk, vegetables etc.) in its natural state, bacteria and their ORNs comes along with the food. A cup of fermented raw milk may contain as much as 30 AUs of lactic acid bacterial ORNs. Since we do not ferment raw foods, and typically wash away the ORNs in the production of probiotics, this missing ingredient has been costly to our health. We need ORNs as a natural part of our nutritional makeup.

Arbitrary Units (AUs) are a unit of measurement to quanity ORNs. ORNs set off a chain reaction of beneficial events, initiated through our immune cells, first in our mouth, and then small intestines, that upregulate our immune system. 30 AUs of ORNs is sufficient to upregulate the human immune system through the oral cavity. Our new LactORN provides 30 AUs of ORNs per one level teaspoon.

How do ORNs "activate" probiotics and modulate the immune system of animals and humans?

The LactORNs replace a nutritional ingredient lost in the Western diet due to all the processing of foods that we eat. Our bodies have evolved with ORNs from bacteria as an important component of our diet. ORNs released in our mouth activate probiotics to grow and stimulates and balances our immune systems. This has been shown in the immune systems of all animals tested—from shrimp to fish, mice, rats, pigs, cows, and humans (Marshall, 2007).

As we have learned last week, our diets lack in sufficient amounts of ORNs because we do not eat fermented foods. Furthermore, most of the yogurts and fermented vegetables available to us lack ORNs. This means that we are seriously deficient in this important nutritional element that helps our bodies fight infection.

All bacteria contain ORNs. Marshall (2007) has discovered that ORNs are small fragments of RNA weighing <10,000 Daltons. They are released immediately when bacteria are transferred from acidic culture media into saliva or pH neutral buffer.

Mice fed free <10kDaONRs released by L. casei, prior to a lethal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) are protected from toxic shock death.

Exposure to <10kDaORNs stimulates innate and adaptive immune responses in hosts as diverse phylogenetically as teleosts and mammals.

In-vivo studies with shrimp and cattle show protection against infections when fed with <10kDaORNs released by Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) bacteria and yeasts.

The co-evolutionary release and immune modulation by exRNAs (external RNAs) appears to be well-conserved among the microbial and mammalian kingdoms.

Diets of pasteurized and processed foods do not provide sufficient amounts of GRAS organisms to release the exRNAs that modulate an immune response, nor do typical probiotics or commercial yogurts.

Since the discovery that eukaryotic cells release exRNAs that regulate expression of their genes as well as those of nearby cells, we felt it reasonable that a similar phenomenon might exist in bacteria and that the <10kDaORNs were exRNAs or transcriptional factors that control expression of their growth cycle genes.

Through co-evolution, mammalian immune cells adapted a response to them. In-vitro studies in humans as well as in-vivo studies in mice, shrimp, fish and cattle fed <10kDaORNs released by GRAS organisms significantly increased their protection against infection and the lethality of septic shock.

The L. casei doesn't have to be cultureable but remains viable but if it is and enters a human mouth with a neutral pH of 7 then the bacteria accomplishes two things: it will release its ORNs which stimulates the oral immune system to respond, and two, the release of ORNs causes an immediate cell division by those bacteria for whom the release of ORNs has occurred when they are returned to an environment rich in nutrients.

If all the bacteria have not released their ORNs in the mouth, those that didn't will release them when they again reach an area with an alkaline pH such as the small intestines. They start to divide and multiply with no lag time. If the pH of the mouth is more acidic than 5, only 1/3 of ORNs will be released. One can add the LactORNs to a baking soda drink (the formula can be found on the back of a box of Arm and Hammer baking soda and gargle to insure that all LactORNs are released.

There is no toxicity to the ORNs. They restore the immune system without causing chronic inflammation. The cytokines released are IL-1, IL-6, IL-4 and TNF alpha. To IL-1 and 6 control inflammation and IL-4 activates B-cells and antibody production. IL-6 seems to protect the body from too much inflammation. Overall low level of inflammation are incited to prepare the immune system for a more effective prevention of infection from bacteria and virus.

Dosage: Individuals taking prescription drugs should inform their doctors before taking LActORNS. A restored immune systme may be more sensitive to the drugs and the prescription might need to be changed. For example statins may be need to be lowered or eliminated and HBP medication may need to be reduced as well as blood thinners.
