Deep immunity references that not only does it strengthen initial immune response via circulating white blood cells in the blood, but it also stimulates white blood cells in the lymph which are secondary and a deeper immune response. It strengthens the immune system, protects against microbial invasion and attacks microbes that have taken residence in the body. Immune Acute Complex can be used for those wanting to avoid getting sick or those trying to push an illness out of the body. It has broad- spectrum effects that stimulate immune activity, modulate the immune system, fight bacterial and viral conditions, and open up nasal passages. It is also an excellent tonic for those who are prone to getting colds and flu, and can be used in acute situations when the immune system needs an extra boost. It can also be used by those with chronic infections to strengthen and rebuild the immune system and protect against further immune breakdown. Astragalus, Maitake, and Shiitake are well known for their ability to stimulate deep immunity. They are great for those prone to getting sick or those who have chronic immune deficiency that needs support. Astragalus contains polysaccharides, saponins, flavonoids, and phytosterols which contribute to its immune enhancing affects. It increases the number of stem cells in bone marrow and lymph tissue and encourages their development into active immune cells. One of the most active constituents in Maitake and Shiitake mushroom is believed to be a beta glucan polysaccharide that powers up the immune system. Beta glucan, which can also be derived from yeast, acts as a “biological defense modifier” to stimulate and modulate various immune responses. It has been heavily researched for its immune enhancing properties and its ability to activate macrophage immune cells, NK-Cells, T-Cells, B-Cells, and cytokines. A study from Harvard Medical School found animals treated with beta glucan were more resistant to bacterial, viral, and fungal inundation. Beta glucan treatment stimulated proliferation of white blood cells and increased phagocytic macrophage activity. A concentrated beta glucan extract is added to Immune Acute Complex to further increase the formula’s immune enhancing properties. Echinacea excites the immune system to fight off microbes before they dominate an organ system and create illness. Numerous studies show Echinacea to have positive effects for colds, flu, and upper respiratory tract infections. It stimulates phagocytosis and helps ward off oncoming infections. As a long-term tonic it can boost immunity and help rebuild a healthy immune response. Forsythia Fruit, Honeysuckle Flower, and Isatis Root are traditional Chinese herbs used to help the body to resolve illness and clear toxins. These herbs are powerful anti-virals and are extremely effective in the early stages of colds and flu. Licorice is added as an expectorant to thin mucus in the lungs to clear congestion. It brings down inflammation and soothes sore throats. Colloidal Silver has been used throughout history as an antibiotic and disinfectant. It destroys the enzymes responsible for oxygen metabolism in bacteria, viruses, and fungi, thus cutting off oxygen to these harmful pathogens and suffocating them. Colloidal Silver kills bacterial, viral, and fungal organisms upon contact, yet leaves the good bacteria in the body unharmed. Garlic also acts as a natural antibiotic and antiviral agent. It fights chronic or recurrent infections and is indicated for those with low resistance to infection. It has a long history of relieving the symptoms of upper-respiratory illnesses, and can bring down inflammation in the mucus membranes of the nose and throat. Eucalyptus Oil and Menthol Crystals are airborne aromatics added to the formula to clear the sinuses and open up breathing. Their soothing vapors stimulate the opening of respiratory and nasal passages, improving airflow and encouraging the release of mucus.

And neither do those doctors involved in the following study. T his report is a follow-up two years after the end of a 10-year study published earlier. The initial trial followed 443 Swedish men and women, aged 78 to 85 at the start, who took 200 mg of CoQ10 plus 200 mcg of selenium per day for the first four years. Doctors also followed a similar group of 222 individuals who did not take supplements. After 12 years, chances of having died from a heart or circulatory event were 41 percent lower for the CoQ10-selenium group compared to the non-supplement group. Discussing the findings, doctors said the results at 12 years validate the findings at 10 years; that even eight years after stopping supplementing, people who had taken CoQ10 and selenium were much less likely to have died from heart and circulatory factors.

P eople with diabetes often have circulatory and inflammatory conditions. In this study, 64 men and women with type 2 diabetes took 500 mg of hesperidin per day, or a placebo. After six weeks, while the placebo group had not changed compared to the start of the study, those taking hesperidin saw systolic blood pressure decline to 119 from 122.7 mmHg. Doctors also measured average arterial blood pressure, which declined to 91.8 from 94.2 mmHg. Measuring inflammation, levels of interleukin-6, an inflammatory marker, decreased to 7.4 from 8.3, and another marker, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, dropped by 42 percent to 1.1 from 1.9. Meanwhile, total antioxidant capacity increased to 0.82 from 0.74. Discussing the findings, doctors said the bioflavonoid hesperidin, primarily found in citrus fruits, may help blood vessels function better and reduce inflammation in type 2 diabetes.
