3 REASONS TO BOOST YOUR IMMUNITY WITH SUPPLEMENTS

Like 90% of people, you may not be getting the recommended amount of important nutrients from food alone. 

Your immune system is complicated.  It consists of complex cells, processes and chemicals that are in a fighting mode against foreign invasions: viruses, toxins, bacteria.  Keeping immunity system at its best means eating nutritious foods, getting enough sleep, exercising.

Research has shown that supplementing with certain vitamins, minerals, herbs, and other substances can improve immune response and potentially protect against illness.

3 good reasons for supplements to boost immunity:

Vitamin C is super important, and we need A LOT of it.

Vitamin C supports the function of various immune cells and enhances their ability to protect against infection.  Supplementing with vitamin C has been shown to reduce the duration and severity of upper respiratory tract infections, including the common cold in adults and kids.  Upper daily limit for Vitamin C is 2000 mg.  That’s almost 40 lemons.

Zinc is essential to decrease infection risk, but 30% of older adults are considered deficient.

A deficiency in this nutrient significantly affects your immune system’s ability to function properly, resulting in an increased risk of infection and disease, including pneumonia.  Zinc deficiency affects around 2 billion people worldwide and is very common in older adults.  Numerous studies reveal that zinc supplements may protect against respiratory tract infections like the common cold.  What’s more, supplementing with zinc may be beneficial for those who are already sick.

80% of immunity cells live within your digestive system, that’s why your gut is at the heart of immunity.

It is absolutely key that it absorbs all nutrients and vitamins from food correctly and completely. It’s a good idea to support your gut’s healthy function making sure it’s microbiota (good gut bacteria) is balanced.
