AJ’s Story…

A.J. Lanigan has over 20 years experience in various disciplines of immunology. AJ attended to the University of South Carolina, College of Pharmacy from 1971-1975. Then decided to form hsi own company in 1980 with a focus on health-related fields. In addition to developing numerous audio and videotapes on health-related issues, he has written the Internet book, “Health in a Pill and Other Medical Myths”.

A Man of Many Talents

A.J. Lanigan is not just considered well-versed in immunology but a multidisciplinary expert with over two decades of deep-rooted experience in immunology, pharmacology, and natural medicine. Having attended the University of South Carolina's College of Pharmacy between 1971 and 1975, he laid the academic foundation for his future career. Over the years, Lanigan has carved a unique niche, excelling in driving research and product development, business entrepreneurship, and public health education.

Building a Worldwide Health and Information Network

In the early 1980s, Lanigan channeled his passion for healthcare into creating his enterprise company. The focus of this company was not merely confined to immunological research but extended to encompass broader healthcare topics, natural therapies, and wellness products. His business acumen and relentless drive to learn and teach led him to develop various educational materials, including audio-visual content and online publications, notably his Internet book, "Health in a Pill and Other Medical Myths."

Collaborations and Partnerships

While building his business, Lanigan also focused on forging valuable partnerships with healthcare professionals, medical institutions, major universities, and research organizations. These collaborations allowed him to gain more comprehensive insights into healthcare challenges and refine his solutions.

Ozone Therapy: A Leap Forward in Non-Traditional Treatment

Venturing into innovative therapeutic approaches, Lanigan introduced ozone generators in medical settings by the early 1990s. Industry professionals acknowledged his expertise, as he presented at various international conferences on the therapeutic applications of ozone. His work in ozone therapy demonstrated its effects on cytokine production, thereby showing its benefits on the human immune system. He worked alongside notable M.D.s and other healthcare professionals working with HIV, cancer, and other serious health challenges.

Influencing Policy and Public Opinion

His efforts continued beyond research. Lanigan also engaged with policy-makers, lawmakers, and medical professionals to promote safe, alternative therapy as a standard medical practice, advocating for its integration into existing healthcare systems for diverse treatment modalities. At one point, Lanigan's efforts prevented legislation that would have rippled anyone seeking or providing complementary offerings to the citizens of S.C.

Beta Glucan Research: Affordable Solutions for Immune Health

A pivotal moment in Lanigan's career was his groundbreaking research on Beta-1, 3-D glucan, a molecule critical for immune system function. While beta-glucan had always shown promise, its high production costs rendered it inaccessible to the average consumer. A problem-solver at heart, Lanigan developed relationships to create a new manufacturing method between 1995 and 1996 to synthesize highly pure yet economically viable beta-glucan. This achievement received scientific validation by the University of Georgia's Complex Carbohydrate Research Center (UGA CCRC).

Broadening Access and Public Awareness

Lanigan did not just keep his discoveries confined to the scientific community. Through educational seminars and product offerings, he made this potent immune-boosting substance available to the general public, fulfilling a significant public health need.

Leadership in Aloe Vera Research

Lanigan extended his research endeavors into the field of Aloe Vera in 1997. As an active member and contributor to the International Aloe Science Council, he investigated the various bioactive components of Aloe Vera that impact the immune system and overall health. His work in this area has led to the development of supplements that leverage the full potential of Aloe Vera, thus further diversifying his product range. He gives tremendous credit to the International Aloe Science Council (IASC), where Lanigan was a member for several years.

As a Public Speaker and Educator

One of A.J. Lanigan's most enduring contributions to public health is his role as a communicator. He has been a keynote speaker at numerous conferences, educating various stakeholders from corporations, medical institutions, and the academic world. He can uniquely break down complex immunological concepts into layperson's terms, making science accessible to all.

Open-Source Education

Lanigan has also made educational videos and articles freely available on websites and social media platforms to reach a broader audience. These resources aim to raise public awareness of various health issues and potential solutions.

Recent Advancements and Recognition

Lanigan continues to blaze new trails in the field of immunology. His sponsorship of rigorous, university-based research comparing different immune-boosting supplements has filled a significant gap in the market for evidence-based products. He has pushed for and promoted an impressive array of scientific articles in numerous prestigious medical journals.

Awards and Honors

Over the years, Lanigan has received multiple awards recognizing his contributions to immunology and public health. His work is a testament to his innovative thinking, scientific integrity, and commitment to community well-being.

At an internationally televised conference, Robert Scott Bell introduced A.J.  as "either the smartest funny guy or the funniest smart guy he had ever met." A.J. Lanigan is more than well-versed in immunology; he is a comprehensive healthcare solution provider. His lifelong mission is to offer reliable, evidence-based, affordable healthcare products and information as a beacon in today's often confusing health landscape. Whether knocking down barriers for pioneering research in immunology, creating high-quality and cost-effective health supplements, or delivering invaluable education to professionals and the general public, A.J. Lanigan's multifaceted contributions to healthcare cannot be overstated.
