Treating Cold & Flu is best accomplished with early and aggressive measures to stimulate a healthy immune system response. Here is a list of my "Go To" solutions.
Adults |
Viracid
Anti-viral element combination of key nutrients and botanical extracts that boosts immune defenses by providing nutrients such as L-lysine vitamins A and C, pantothenic acid, B12, and zinc. Viracid includes the synergistic blend of botanical extracts black elderberry, astragalus, echinacea, and andrographis, all of which have been used traditionally for their clinically effective immune- modulating properties. It increases the activity of your natural "Killer cells" that destroy virus.
Andrographis (Virographis) **contraindicated in pregnancy**
In clinical studies, andrographis was shown to decrease severity and duration of upper respiratory tract infections including influenza flu virus. It also relieves the inflammatory symptoms of sinusitis. Laboratory studies have found that andrographis increases white cell and natural killer cell activity and reduce symptom severity in people with the common cold.
Moducare
Comprised of plant sterols that work to increase the responsiveness of the immune system. Natural killer (NK) cells in our immune system hunt down invading infections and devour them Moducare increases the activity of Natural Killer cells to enhance surveillance and also reduce inflammation.
WholeMune
We recommend that you use this specific product anytime you are on an antibiotic to improve the effectiveness of the antibiotic kill rate. This specific beta glucan was proven in human clinical trials to prepare and protect the immune system from repeated and ongoing stressors. This product contains 75 % pure beta glucan and is considered the most effective single nutrient to naturally prime immune cells and significantly boost immune defense.
Argentyn 23
A silver nanoparticle product that has broad anti-microbial spectrum for virus, fungus and bacterial elements. It can be taken into the body via multiple routes.
Vitamin C A baseline "absolute must"
Vitamin C is strongly supportive of our immune function and has been shown to reduce the occurrence of colds and even shorten their duration. Vitamin C increase production of white cells and killer cells that attack infections. It also modulates prostaglandin synthesis decreasing inflammation.
Vitamin D3
High dose vitamin D has been used in controlled studies and shown to be exceedingly safe and remarkably effective. It up regulates naturally occurring anti-microbial peptides that attack infection. It’s like your own internal antibiotic. We make vitamin D when our skin is exposed to the sun so clearly we are deficient during the winter months.
Reboost
A homeopathic nasal spray used for the relief of nasal congestion, sinus headache and pressure, and cold/flu nasal symptoms. Does not contain ingredients known to cause drowsiness or rebound effect.
