Immunity For The Winter Season
During the winter months your immune system will be challenged by lack of
rest, stress, and cold weather conditions that lead to decreased sunlight and
physical activity, as well as increase in exposure to persons with contagious
illness.
With vaccines offering limited protection, as well as being scarce in times of
high demand, we must support our immune systems naturally in order to stay
as healthy as possible when we are most vulnerable.
Three main areas of immune support during these months include exercise,
stress management and nutritional supplementation.  The following is a list of
potentially beneficial vitamins/minerals/herbs/nutrients to help boost immunity:

~Vitamin C                                                ~Probiotics
~Vitamin A                                                ~Essential Fatty Acids
~Vitamin E                                                ~Olive leaf extract
~Beta-Carotene (Mixed Carotenoids)       ~Grape seed extract
~Vitamin B6 & various folates                   ~Andrographis
~Zinc/Copper/Manganese/Selenium         ~DHEA & more...

Although there is no better substitute than nutrients in their natural form, the
reality is most of us do not obtain levels sufficient for immune support on a
regular basis.  That being said we must supplement our diets with some of the
above nutrients along with maintaining appropriate exercise levels, rest, and
stress management.
Talk to your health care provider about which nutrients and what dosages
would be appropriate for your individual needs or contact our facility for
consultation regarding immune enhancement.
