Immune Support Packets

Immune Support Packets offer five distinct immune system supporting formulations in one convenient packet. The combined ingredients in these products provide antioxidants, medicinal mushrooms, zinc, vitamin D, vitamin B6, and other vitamins, minerals and compounds to aid the body’s natural immune defenses.*

Immune Support Packets include:

Immunitone Plus™: contains herbs, botanical extracts and other plant ingredients used historically to support the immune system, such as astragalus, echinacea, elderberry and andrographis. This product also provides an array of medicinal mushrooms to help the body’s natural defense against pathogens, as well as lauric acid, a special type of fat that has these beneficial properties as well.* Also included is green tea extract, a source of the powerful antioxidant EGCg.

Vitamin D Complex: In addition to its role in supporting bone health and proper calcium levels in the body, vitamin D is indispensable for a healthy immune system. Vitamin D Complex provides this crucial nutrient along with the other fat-soluble vitamins (A, E, and K) because their roles in physiology may be optimized when taken together, the way they often occur naturally in food.

Stellar C™: provides vitamin C as ascorbic acid and extract of acerola fruit, a naturally rich source of vitamin C. This product also includes rutin, quercetin, hesperidin and other bioflavonoids from citrus fruits, which may work in synergy with vitamin C for supporting a healthy immune system. Vitamin C is essential for the synthesis of collagen, which is the most abundant protein in the skin. The skin is the body’s largest organ and the protective barrier it provides is one of the first lines of defense against unwanted pathogens.*

Zinc Supreme™: provides zinc, riboflavin, vitamin B6 and other ingredients to support immune function. These compounds can be obtained from the diet but certain situations may warrant supplementation with levels above that which would typically be gotten from food alone.

N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine (NAC): provides a generous dose (900 mg) of NAC, an important amino acid precursor. NAC is a source of the amino acid cysteine, which is a building block of glutathione, the body’s most powerful antioxidant.

Recommended Use: Take one packet per day, or as directed by your health care practitioner.

Consult your health care practitioner before using this product if you are taking Coumadin, warfarin, or other anticoagulant medications. This product is not recommended for use by pregnant or lactating women.

Quercetin + Nettles

 

 

This product is a combination of quercetin and nettles, two plant extracts that support the immune system and the body’s natural inflammatory response upon exposure to environmental allergens.

Quercetin: Quercetin has been called “king of the flavonoids” because of its powerful antioxidant properties and its ability to support a healthy inflammatory response in the body. It is found in many foods that are recognized for their health benefits, such as red onions, apples, olive oil, dark berries and grapes, capers, salad greens and culinary herbs such as dill, cilantro, watercress, and radicchio. (Quercetin contributes to the richly colored pigments in these foods.) A potent antioxidant, quercetin also works to balance a healthy inflammation response and helps regulate histamine. (Histamine is the compound responsible for some of the unpleasant symptoms associated with occasional and seasonal upper respiratory challenges.)

Nettles: The nettle plant (a.k.a. “stinging nettle”) has been employed throughout the ages and across the globe for a wide variety of uses. Documentation points to its use in ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, and among native peoples in North America. Nettle has been consumed directly, or made into soup, tea, and even brewed into beer. Its high content of vitamin C and iron underlies its immune-supporting effects. Nettle has traditionally been used for supporting respiratory and joint health. It is also a natural compound for benefiting the inflammatory response. Like quercetin, nettle is also a natural antihistamine. However, unlike many over-the-counter choices that regulate histamine, nettle does not cross the blood-brain-barrier, which means it is unlikely to cause the drowsiness associated with common OTC products that promote upper respiratory health.

Recommended Use: As a dietary supplement, take 3 capsules per day with meals, or as directed by your health care practitioner.

Immunoberry Liquid

 

ImmunoBerry™ Liquid provides immune support in a pleasant tasting liquid ideal for both children and adults. It is a comprehensive, synergistic formula that combines herbs, medicinal mushroom extracts and other natural compounds to help the body maintain a normal immune system response.* Its significant botanicals include extracts from elderberry, astragalus root, and wild cherry bark. In addition, ImmunoBerry™ Liquid includes a combination of shiitake and maitake mushroom extracts, as well as the soluble dietary fiber beta glucan, which have been shown to help stimulate the immune system.*

The immune system is an extraordinary, complex system comprised of specific cells, organs and other microscopic immune defense organisms. Together, they make up the defense system that protects the health and wellness of our bodies on a day to day basis. The standardized herbs in ImmunoBerry™ Liquid contain optimal and consistent amounts of their most active ingredients.

Elderberry (Sambucus nigra) Elderberry, commonly referred to as European elder, is grown in most parts of Europe, Northern Africa, West Asia, and now the U.S., and nearly every part of the plant is utilized medicinally, as dietary supplements, or for culinary purposes. The flowers and berries are used most frequently for their high flavonoid content, an antioxidant compound that supports healthy inflammatory and immune responses.* Of all the fresh fruits and berries, elderberry measures as one of the highest in total antioxidant capacity (TAC). Elderberry may help support the immune system of the upper respiratory tract, which is especially important during challenging seasonal times.

Astragalus root (Astragalus membranaceus) Astragalus is native to China and considered one of the most important and widely utilized herbs in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) to help the body adapt to occasional stress. In TCM, astragalus is commonly found in mixtures with other herbs as a tonic to support the immune system and a healthy inflammatory response.*

Wild cherry bark (Prunus serotina spp.) Traditionally, American black cherry has been used for hundreds of years as both food and medicine. It boasts a high content of polyphenolic compounds that possess a high TAC which may have a number of beneficial biological activities including supporting immune system health.*

Shiitake (Lentinula edodes) & Maitake mushroom (Grifola frondosa): Shiitake mushrooms have been cultivated for over 1,000 years and can be traced back to the Song Dynasty (960-1127 A.D.). Shiitake is one of the most popular edible mushrooms in the world and has rapidly grown for its use in supporting and promoting the expression of certain white blood cells for a healthy immune system response.* Maitake mushrooms, and particularly their beta-glucan polysaccharide (a type of fiber) constituent, have been associated with helping balance a healthy immune system.*

Beta-1,3/1,6 glucan Beta-glucan is a soluble fiber derived from the cell walls of algae, bacteria, fungi, yeast, and certain cereal grains such as barley and oats. It is commonly used to help healthy cholesterol and glucose metabolism to support body weight management.*. Beta-glucans have also been shown to support the body’s natural ability to heal wounds and a healthy immune response.*

Recommended Use: Take 1 mL (approx. 35 drops) per day, or as directed by your health care practitioner
