Our Mission
To provide a path toward ageless, healthy, radiant skin, and a plan that will ensure long-term results.
Immupure sets itself apart from the rest due to its revolutionary use of colostrum, a nutrient found in the pre-milk produced by mammalian mothers in the first 24 – 72 hours after giving birth. Given to newborn babies so that their young bodies can build immunity, strength, and ultimately thrive.
The colostrum contained in Immupure comes from cows, which is 20 times more potent than that of humans. We select and care for our cows meticulously: all are raised free-range and are absolutely steroid-free and hormone-free. We observe the utmost care when nourishing our cows, so that the natural power found in their pre-milk can be utilized for our product and your benefit.
Immupure colostrum is cold sterilized with our special proprietary process that preserves the potency of the nutrient’s natural ingredients: a balance of vitamins, minerals, immunoglobulins (IgG, IgA and IgM – the body’s first line of defense), Lactoferrin (an antimicrobial/antibacterial providing the innate defenses of human infants), MSM (an infection fighting sulfur compound), proteins, amino acids, growth factors, hormones, enzymes, peptides and nucleotides. The formula is pure and natural: no Parabens, oils and fragrances. Though it comes from pre-milk, Immupure is lactose-free, and safe for pregnant women. No animal testing.
The result: Our colostrum not only will nourish and rejuvenate you, it also helps raise immunity all around. A non-invasive alternative to the use of botox, lasers and surgery, colostrum is perfect for men and women of all types of skin and all ages. It helps reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. Studies have shown that it renews collagen and elastin by up to 400%, and increases general skin cell turnover production. Your skin tone and texture will improve in the present, and your general skin health will improve for the future. Furthermore, Immupure has shown to help in being effective for improving acne, sun damage, psoriasis, neurodermatitis (eczema and rosacea).
The capabilities are truly miraculous. Hospitals are using colostrum to heal radiation burns, the ravages of chemotherapy, and to fight infections and diseases. Immupure is about nourishing and protecting your health, and returning it to a state of natural purity. Your skin will look new again on the outside, but even more vitally, it will appear younger from the inside and your whole body will be energized with Immupure’s immune-boosting powers.
Immupure Skin Perfecting System: The actively potent way to ageless skin perfection, straight from its natural source.
Company History
After several years as President & CEO of a major American pharmaceutical company, Detlef Fuhrmann started to study colostrum and its defensive properties. After 15 years of research and experiments, Mr. Fuhrmann ultimately developed a proprietary process to “bottle” colostrum’s benefits. The result is Immupure, the unique and revolutionary elixir that brings you ageless skin straight from its natural source.
That accomplished, Immupure is busy developing a wide range of products that harness the defensive healing capabilities and innate purity of colostrum, so that your skin may benefit the natural way.
Immupure is a natural complex obtained from colostrum and made in the USA. The delicate manufacturing conditions, under which Immupure is produced, result in crèmes rich in amino acids, vitamins, minerals and other essential nutrition factors.
Colostrum possess unique properties as the first sustenance a new born receives from its mother. The natural equilibrium between all these nutritional factors, makes Immupure an excellent treatment for all skin types concerned with anti-aging.

- Vitamin B3 (Nicotinamid): required for proper blood circulation.
- Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid): essential component in the production of coenzyme A, a vital catalyst that is require for the conversion of carbohydrates, fats, and protein into energy. It is also named the anti-stress vitamin.
- Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine): is required for the synthesis of the nucleic acids RNA and DNA: key function in the reproduction of the cells and cellular growth
- Vitamin B9 (Folic Acid): necessary for the production of red blood cells and for the synthesis of RNA and DNA. Helps with tissue growth and cell function: Folic acid is necessary for the production and maintenance of new cells
- Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin): this vitamin aids in cell formation and cellular longevity. It is considered to play an important role as an anti-aging nutrient.
Minerals
Mineral nutrients consist of two classes:
- the major elements such as calcium, phosphorous, magnesium, iron, iodine and potassium.
- the trace elements such as copper, cobalt, manganese, fluorine, and zinc.
Immupure contains a well-balanced amount of minerals, which act as the spark for many of the body’s cellular processes and keep them running efficiently.
Minerals present in Immupure: Sodium, Calcium, Potassium, Magnesium, Zinc, and Phosphorous.
Amino Acids
Amino acids are considered to be “building blocks” of proteins, the complex molecule present in all living things. All of the 20 amino acids have been identified from which of these are considered “essential amino acids” because they cannot be synthesized by the body.
The 8 essential amino acids: Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine, Methionine, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Tryptophan and Valin.
Taurine is a special amino acid with an important role in skin hydration and which is known for its energizing properties.

Preamble
Colostrum is produced in the mammary glands of all female mammals during pregnancy and in the first days after giving birth. It contains a high amount o essential elements which are only present in this concentrated, high-quality organic form 72 hours after the arrival of the mother’s milk. The composition of colostrum is determined by nature and contains an optimal balance of vitamins, trace elements, amino acids, immunoglobulins and growth factors.
International studies show that the contents of colostrum promote and support healthy skin. The following case study shows the positive effect of colostrum skin cream in relieving and regenerating skin irritations.
Test Results
Test criteria was psoriasis, neurodermitis and acne vulgaris which had not been healed by standard treatments. The results were collated over a period of 8 weeks with Immupure skin repair cream.
Material and Use
It is not possible to use colostrum in its raw state due to a high amount of fat. large molecular proteins and other undesirable substances. By way of newly developed, gentle biophysical production methods, fat, casein, albumin and other contaminants are removed. The active substances remain in their natural balance. lmmupure® skin cream from the German company (Manufacturer for Immupure LLC) was used for the pilot study. The processing is carried out in line with the regulations from GMP, DIN ISO 9001 and HACCP.
- The case study included 50 patients
- 15 suffered from psoriasis
- 20 suffered from neurodermitis
- 15 suffered from acne vulgaris
- The observation period was 8 weeks and was carried out in various doctors surgeries.
All patients had already received dermatological treatments. Despite previous treatments the patients were not free of their complaints. The results were looked at subjectively and objectively. The criteria was divided into: no improvement, slight improvement, significant improvement and completely healed.
7 of the patients experienced a degeneration at the beginning and decided to stop using the Immupure® cream after 2 days. They resumed after 4 days. The subjective and objective results were collated and recorded after 8 weeks. All other treatments were stopped. The patients applied the Immupure® cream to the affected areas in the mornings and evenings.
Discussion
The case study included 50 patients which were recruited from different doctors’ surgeries. The test criteria was psoriasis, neurodermitis and acne vulgaris which had not been healed by standard treatments. The results were collated over a period of 8 weeks.
In all test areas there is a significant improvement. All patients benefited from the colostrum as there was at least a slight improvement for all the patients. In all 3 test criteria the significant improvement is noticeable. In all areas there were cases of complete healing in particular for the acne patients.
The effect of creme can be justified in that ¡t contains a natural active substances system. In addition, the growth factors, amino acids, immunoglobulins and other anti-bacterial substances play an important role. It is possible to conclude that the number of patients who could experience complete healing would increase if the treatment were continued. Further results can be recorded after 3 months. It is not possible at the moment to make a statement about faster healing effects over a longer period of time.
Synopsis
In the case of allergen bacterial based skin irritations which have not been healed using standard treatments, the use of Immupure colostrum leads to a significant improvement within 8 weeks.
In addition, other positive effects were noted for injuries such as cuts, abrasions and burns. Such injuries were healed in a 1/3 of the time that it would normally take.
