Abstract focus
On the basis of numerous animal experiments, a pilot study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of undenatured, biologically active, dietary whey protein in 3 HIV-seropositive individuals over a period of 3 months. Whey protein concentrate was prepared so that the most thermosensitive proteins, such as serum albumin which contains 6 glutamylcysteine groups, would be in undenatured form.
Context from Dr. Gutman’s comments
This small study was the first trial of Immunocal in humans. Following successful experiments on animals with AIDS/ HIV, the Montreal General Hospital team felt confident enough to move up to clinical trials by collaborating with McGill researchers.
