The present invention provides methods for modulating the immune response of a subject to a therapeutic agent, the method comprising administering an effective amount of a triphenylethylene (TRIP) compound with an effective amount of the therapeutic agent. In particular embodiments, the TRIP compound enhances the immune response of the subject to the therapeutic agent. In some embodiments, the TRIP compound is administered in different dosing schedules to provide a biphasic immunomodulation effect.

Methods and formulations for batch-mixing flavonoid tinctures and infusing the flavonoid batch-mixed tincture into a food, beverage, cosmetic or drug products with minimal or no effect on the alcohol by volume of the product, and to precisely deliver the desired mixture concentration of the flavonoids, is provided. A batch-mixed flavonoid tincture includes an amount of at least two individual flavonoid tinctures, each flavonoid tincture being a mixture of at least a flavonoid and a solvent. The batch-mixed tincture is added to various food and beverages, or alternatively directly administered to a human or animal, to make a bioavailable amount of flavonoids to be absorbed and metabolized by the body providing demonstrated health benefits.
