INGREDIENTS
KEY INGREDIENTS:
Vitamin C
Vitamin C has a free radical scavenging effect that protects cells from reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by the body to control infections. It may also have antiviral activity that can relieve cold symptoms due to the function of ROS on the surface airways and lung epithelium. Vitamin C contributes to the improvement of innate and adaptive immune function. Its deficiency is associated with immune problems such as impaired collagen synthesis for barriers, as well as impaired production of performance-enhancing free radicals. The recommended daily intake of vitamin C is 75 to 90 mg.

Vitamin D
Vitamin D is required for phagocytic activity, limits the inflammatory response mediated by specific T cell subtypes, and promotes wound healing. Vitamin D deficiency is associated with immune problems such as decreased B cell proliferation and decreased immunoglobulin production. Additionally, decreased overall T cell proliferation such as TH1 cytokines were decreased, while TH2 cytokines and regulatory T cells were increased. It is recommended to get vitamin D naturally by getting 5-30 minutes of sun exposure 2 times a week. Taking it in the form of D2 (ergocalciferol) and D3 (cholecalciferol) supplements, you would need 600-800 IU. Replenishing would make the recommended intake 1,000-4,000 IU.

Magnesium
Magnesium keeps the immune system strong, helps build muscles and bones, and supports many bodily functions, from heart to brain function. Magnesium also helps reduce tiredness and fatigue. It contributes to electrolyte balance, normal energy-yielding metabolism, and normal functioning of the nervous system.

Zinc
Zinc is necessary for immune cell development and communication and plays an important role in the inflammatory response. A zinc deficiency significantly affects your immune system’s ability to function properly, leading to an increased risk of infection and illness, including pneumonia. Additionally, zinc supplementation may be beneficial for those who are already ill.

Selenium
Selenium has free radical scavenging effects as it promotes the limited production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to fight infections. It also stimulates general immune reactivity such as T and B cell activation, as well as cytokine release. Deficiency is associated with immune problems such as loss of host defenses against free radicals, decreased white blood cell and NK cell function. The recommended daily intake is 20-55 ug/day.

N-acetyl L-cysteine
promotes healthy mucus viscosity, which in turn helps maintain normal breathing patterns and promotes healthy lung function.

Elderberry
Black elderberry (Sambucus nigra), long used to treat infections, has been shown to enhance the immune system's response and may help shorten the duration and severity of colds, as well as reduce symptoms associated with viral infections.

Turmeric Root Extract
Curcumin is the main active compound in turmeric. It has powerful anti-inflammatory properties and studies indicate it may help improve immune function.
