'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 worrying about the people around us coughing and spreading bacteria and viruses.




We stock the following products!



Vitamin D

Consider taking this all winter long as the majority of people don't even get the required amount of sunlight in the summertime, let alone on 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!
