" Would it be
 possible to find a "additive" that would stimulate
 Immune response"

This is easy enough to do.  You just need to feed any standard food you wish to feed and make sure it has a decent load of live bacteria and yeasts growing in it.  A hand full of garden dirt mixed in the feed would probably supply the needed microbes.  It would also help to have some toxins in the feed such as essential oils and perhaps even some alkaloids such as caffeine or nicotine.  You will then have simulated "natural" nectar resulting in immune system and detoxification genes being active.
