Cold and Flu Provisions
Are you ready for cold and
flu season?
T
here are a myriad of products available
and deciding what to take it can be quite
confusing. Simplify by breaking it down to
two approaches, prevention and treatment.
Treating symptoms almost seems easy; the big
question is how to prevent. First things first,
take a Comprehensive multivitamin-mineral
formula. Any nutritional deficiency can put a
strain on your immune system and increase
susceptibility to infection. Comprehensive
multivitamin-mineral formulas contain the
most nutritional bang for the buck because
you’re getting the maximum amount of all
the essential nutrients.
Our own
Willvite Multivitamin-Mineral
Formula
is one of the best for quality and
value. Second, take extra Vitamin D! Think
about it. Summer fun in the sun is over, days
are getting shorter and we’re spending more
time indoors. Deficiency in vitamin D is
associated with increased susceptibility to
infection as well as increased autoimmunity.
Research suggests that the safe upper limit for
Vitamin D is 4,000IU/day. For moderate
supplementation, a 1,000-2,000IU dose of
vitamin D3 should be sufficient. Third,
Probiotics! Insuring healthy intestinal
microbiota is one of the best ways to support
your immune system. Around 70% of human
immunity is located in the gut, making it the
largest immune organ. The gut acts as a
barrier preventing the absorption of any
unwanted microbes or toxins. Probiotics
colonize the lining of the gut adding
additional protection as well producing
antibiotic and anti-inflammatory materials.
Lastly, use an Immune Symptom Formula.
Products that contain combinations of
immune supporting herbs and nutrients can
be very effective for both prevention and
treatment. Examples of immune formulas
are:
Wellness Formula by Source Naturals
,
or
SystemWell Ultimate Immunity by
Nature’s Way
. Medicinal mushrooms are an
important category in immune support. Two
mushroom formulas to try are
