'Tis the season for colds and illness so let's be prepared to mount our defenses! The immune system is our body's natural defense against such challenges as changes in the weather, less sunlight and stress. When the immune system is strong and healthy, we can make our way through the world without worry about the people around us coughing and spreading bacteria and virus'.
We stock all of the following products!
Vitamin D
Consider taking this all winter long as majority of people don't even get the required amount of sunlight in the summer time, let alone in these darker, (colder..haha) days! 2-5000 IUs per day for maintenance. Vitamin D not only supports the immune system, but also mineral absorption, bone health and other cellular processes!
Congaplex
This fabulous specialty product is Whole food support for short term immune support. My family loads up on this if we feel anything coming on or if people around us are sick. It supports immune response and provides nutrients that support antioxidant activity. It specifically supports the thymus gland and contains RNA which the body uses to produce new cells! When I say load up, we will do 2 per hour until the worry has passed!
Andrographis Complex
Nature's Antibiotic...this herb has been used medicinally for thousands of years and now science is backing up traditional uses! It’s particularly good for sinus and upper respiratory infections.
Zand Echinacea and Goldenseal Tincture
This one is fantastic when you just feel a little tickle in your throat...I send this down the back of the throat and usually it will stave off the illness. Zand's Insure Herbal Echinacea and Goldenseal features the renowned American botanicals Echinacea root and Goldenseal root in a base of Red Clover flower, Burdock root, Ginger root, and other supportive herbs.
Multimune
This is more of your short term classic immune booster and specifically geared towards a bacterial infection. Nutrients such as Vitamin C, A and zinc along with a blend of colostrum, astragalus and green tea...I say throw the kitchen sink at whatever ails you!
VR-X
This would be the choice if you suspect more of a viral based illness. Similar to Multimune but includes Echinacea, Lysine, Olive leaf, Astragalus and Goldenseal plus more!
