• Its task is to
• improve immunity to civilization diseases improve immune system  
• destroy viruses and bacteria – effective against lyme borreliosis
• stimulate T cells – intensify action of scavenger cells (important in immunity control)
• liquidate tumor cells – immunity intensification
• reduce toxic effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy on healthy tissues
• counteract influenzal viruses
• reduce excessive reactions in contact with dust, pollen, feathers, some food and chemicals

Its beneficial effects on a human organism are significant:

• suitable for reducing or diabetic diet
• as a diet pulp accelerates flow of nutrients through digestive tract
• in the small intestine, works as a bifidogenic substrate and number of bifi-bacteria increases to the detriment of eventual pathogens; it also supports renewal of intestinal microflora, for instance, after taking antibiotics
• has preventive and currant effect on intestinal infections and stimulates organism immune system
• important for colon cancer prevention, as it avoids cell mutation; acts on decreasing the LDL cholesterol level
• increased absorption of some minerals, mainly Ca, Mg, Fe, P, Zn, was demonstrated with animals, which would be significant also for treatment of osteoporosis and anemia if this was demonstrated also with humans
• carcinostatic action on lacteal gland cancer was also demonstrated in animal experiments.
