Final Vision Statement
"MEGGA MIX is not positioned as a drug, but as an infection-protective nutritional food to protect the most vulnerable seniors—those receiving antibiotics—from C. difficile. It is delivered as a simple, nutritious egg-based powder, taken daily, and completed after discharge. Hospitals already purchase specialized nutritional formulas—MEGGA MIX is simply a targeted risk-reduction protocol. The result? Fewer CDI cases, shorter stays, lower costs, and safer hospitals."
Testimonials
""I had taken antibiotics to treat my diverticulitis. A few weeks later I was having diarrhea and thought it was another bout. I gave a stool sample and was diagnosed with C. Diff, which I had never heard of. They gave me another antibiotic to treat this, which set off 8 months of 7 recurrent infections. I took Immunimed’s oral antibody treatment and finally got better. It was simple to take and no side effects. If I’d known then what I know now about C. Diff and MEGGA MIX had been available , I would have taken it for sure." - Michael B., C. diff survivor
"I was given the antibiotic Amoxicillin/clavulanic Acid after laser prostate surgery in 2022. The pharmacist did note that C. Difficile could be a rare complication. Within days of completing the antibiotics, I developed severe cramping & diarrhea. I was now given another set of antibiotics to treat C. Diff. Unfortunately, several weeks later I again was suffering from C. Diff. Fortunately, I was put in contact with John Hare. He immediately had me enrolled in their phase 2 clinical trial treatment of Egg-derived polyclonal antibodies. In less than a week I was symptom free and the C. Diff never returned. Had I been given MEGGA MIX together with the initial antibiotics, I probably would have been spared the infection altogether, along with a lot of pain & discomfort. A preventive medicine for C. Difficile infection could be a life-saver." - Bernie Falk, C. diff survivor

We Employ Latest Research Technology
“I looked at the devastation of C. diff and asked, ‘Why are we waiting for the fire to start instead of fireproofing the patient?’ MEGGA MIX is that fireproofing, using nature’s most perfect defense system—the egg—to protect our elders. We’ve simply harnessed the targeted power of specific egg antibodies and directed them to the precise point of failure in a vulnerable gut. It’s elegant, natural, and profoundly effective.”
