We've been obsessed with immunity lately -- we're ensconced in the height of the flu season and with the holiday season in full swing, there's a lot of germ-sharing going on! All that can add up to trouble, if you don't ensure that you give your immune system the best chance to fight off all those infections lurking like a hunter behind a tree. We've looked at natural immune-boosting techniques like getting enough sleep, drinking enough water, cutting out sugar and generally eating well. Let's look at the whole food supplements that can help boost your immune system, along with all that good work you’re doing yourself.
New Chapter Probiotic Immunity Immune Support -- $17.97
This product contains ten live probiotics, delivered in a whole food supplement media. The ingredients are freeze-dried - one of the most effective ways of preserving benefits and extending shelf life. Elderberry, spinach and oregano are some of the ingredients.
New Chapter Host Defense -- $48.97
This 15-mushroom blend has been extremely popular -- most likely because of scientific studies showing that it increases killer T cell activity in test subjects by up to 300%. It comes in simple vegan capsules with freeze dried ingredients in whole food form.
New Chapter Immunity Take Care -- $23.97
New Chapter has a special focus on immune-boosting herbal supplements … in case you couldn't tell! These are fast dissolving lozenges rather than capsules, so the immune boosting factors are in your bloodstream within minutes, rather than hours. If you've just had a snotty child cough in your face (common scenario at my house!), you'll appreciate this aspect! They have a pleasant blueberry flavor.
Garden of Life RM-10 Ultra -- $37.77
This is a broad-spectrum immune support formula, and should be taken regularly as a preventive as well as general health-booster. It contains tonic mushrooms, betaine, vitamin B12, folic acid,methionine, L-theanine and others.
New Chapter C-Food Complex -- $32.97
No, not "seafood" -- C-Food! Vitamin C has many immune benefits (Captain Cook used sauerkraut as a source of it on long voyages, due to the scarcity of fresh food), and is most effective delivered in this whole food supplement form.
