The immune system actively seeks out and intercepts foreign invaders – whether they are inhaled, consumed, or absorbed through the skin. In general, your body does an excellent job mediating he immune response – however there are some scenarios where the immune system may be overwhelmed, or simply go a bit overboard. See our Helpful tips for good immune health.
A healthy immune system
To support your immune system, make sure you are:
- Including a variety of colourful vegetables and fruit everyday – these contain important vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
- Staying well hydrated.
- Getting a good night’s sleep every night.
- Managing times of increased pressure – consider supporting yourself with adaptogens or a functional mushroom during these times.
- Practicing basic hygiene like washing your hands after being out and about.
Taking supplements can also support a healthy immune system.
When should I take immune support supplements?
There are certain times of the year, and scenarios which highlight the need for immune support:
- Before and during winter ills and chills.
- To support your body’s response to pet hair, dust, and pollen.
- If you have a young child starting day-care.
- When you’re going through a time of increased pressure or have a lot on your plate.
- If you are regularly exposed to air-conditioned environments, particularly at work or during travel.
- If you have an uncomfortable skin condition that appears to come and go depending on your current state of health.
Herbal immune support
There are some fantastic herbs that support the body’s defences and a healthy immune response. Favoured herbs are:
- Echinacea
- Olive Leaf
- Garlic
- Astragalus
- Andrographis
Scientific studies have shown that Garlic extract for example, can support immune cell function and Echinacea supports a normal, healthy recovery.
Key supplements for immune support
Our bodies have an amazing ability to adapt to the constant change of environmental threats, and we are extremely fortunate to have such a wide variety of natural health products to support a healthy immune system and immune response.
- Vitamin C is a commonly used supplement for support during winter ills and chills. It comes in many different forms and strengths, such as Liposomal, Ester-C, Ascorbic Acid and Citrus Bioflavonoids to name just a few. They are often combined with other immune support ingredients for extra support.
- Zinc is a mineral that plays a very important role in supporting a healthy immune response.
- Probiotics support a healthy gastrointestinal tract – which in turn supports immune system function. A probiotic is the ideal supplement for young children starting day-care.
If ills and chills make it to your lower respiratory tract, then take some immune supporting supplements from the Lung Support range. Choose Seasonal Allergy Support during pollen season.
