Willner Chemists: The Nutritional Supplement Professionals
Important Notice: The information given here is designed to
help you make informed decisions about your health, and the
proper use of dietary supplements. It is not intended as a

that may have been prescribed by your doctor. If you have a
medical problem, you should seek medical help. Products
described herein are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or
mitigate disease.
This is the time of year when we are especially concerned
with our immune system. Colds, flu, coughs–we want to
prevent these conditions and, if we do succumb, we want to
shorten their duration and severity.
There are many things we can do. We can try to avoid
exposure to pathogens. We can eat healthy, avoid temperature
extremes and too much stress. But these measures, and others,
often fall short. Some of us get colds and/or the flu every
season, sometimes more than once, while other’s seem to
have an inherent resistance.
We all have some degree of inherent resistance. Our
immune system is designed to protect us from these infections
when working properly. Repeated, or chronic infections,
including mild cases of colds and flu, can be signs of a
weakened or compromised immune system.
In this short article, I am going to list some of my favorite
“herbal remedies” for enhancing immune function. Choosing
herbal supple- ments, when so many choices are available,
can be daunting. I will break them down into categories, such
as “prevention,” “treatment,” and specific health conditions.
(Please note that my use of the terms “prevention” and
“treatment” are not intended to imply medical actions. Only
drugs, as per the FDA regulations, can be said to cure, treat,
prevent or otherwise mitigate disease. I am using the terms
only to clarify the nature of their effect on the immune
system).
I will provide several choices, when appropriate, and you
choose the supplements that seem best for you. In general, I
will list combi- nation products first, and then single herbs
afterwards. For more information on each supplement, please
refer to the more detailed information provided in the Phyto-
Tech™ Product Reference Guide. Indexes located on pages 5
and 110.
