Having a healthy immune system is key to overall well-being and longevity. While there are some common immune boosters that are well recognised, such as vitamin C and zinc, there are numerous lesser known supplements that can powerfully support the immune system.
Organic Green Bee Propolis
Propolis has a long history of use in traditional medicine for its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, and has been shown to boost the body's natural immune responses, helping prevent and fight infections.
Green bee propolis has particularly high concentrations of flavonoids which can support immunity by reducing oxidative stress through their antioxidant properties. Emerging research suggests that green bee propolis may also aid immune system function by modulating immune cell activity.
Active Hexose Correlated Compound
Our High Strength Active Hexose Correlated Compound (AHCC) is an alpha-glucan rich blend of specially selected mushrooms to boost the immune system.
Preliminary studies suggest AHCC enhances the activity of natural killer cells which are vital to defending the body from infections. Furthering this, some research has suggested that AHCC can help modulate the immune system and increase the production of the proteins responsible regulating the immune response.
Quercetin
Quercetin is a great option to consider when looking for an immune boosting supplement and is recently gaining attention for its ability to support the immune system.
Quercetin is a naturally occurring flavonoid that is known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties making it suitable for helping maintain a balance immune response. Research also suggests that quercetin may support the function of numerous immune cells including T-cells and macrophages. Quercetin may further support the immune system by increasing the bioavailabily of other immune-boosting nutrients.
L. Reuteri
Lactobacillus Reuteri is a probiotic strain naturally present in the human gastrointestinal tract that has been suggested to have powerful benefits for the immune system. Research shows that this strain can help maintain a healthy gut microbiota which is linked to healthy immune system function as roughly 70% of the immune system resides in the gut. L. Reuteri may also stimulate the production of antimicrobial peptides which defend the body against harmful pathogens.
Tiger Milk
Tiger Milk has been used for centuries to support respiratory health and improve lung function, which is closely linked to immune system function, making it of interest for promoting the immunity particularly in relation to respiratory health. Recent research suggests that Tiger Milk may work as a potent immunomodulator.
