Benefits Of Each Ingredient
|
|
Vitamin C
|
-
May support immune, cardiovascular, skin, cognitive, fat burning, and digestive health (97, 98).
-
May support immune health via increased oxidant, free radical scavenging, and fueling neutrophilic (immune cell) activity in chemotaxis, phagocytosis, and microbial killing (97,98).
|
|
Vitamin E
|
-
May support immune function, cognitive health, cardiovascular health, and bone health (204,205,206,207,208)
|
|
Zinc
|
-
May support immune function, skin health, cognitive function, and vision (172,173).
|
|
L-Glutamine
|
-
Glutamine is utilized by immune cells at high rates during catabolic conditions (post-surgery, sepsis, burns, and extreme exercise (18).
|
|
Elderberry Extract
|
-
May support antioxidant function, cardiovascular health, and may aid as antiviral agent (231,232,233,234).
-
May support antioxidant function due to polyphenolic content, increased free radical scavenging ability, and reduced inflammatory cytokines (231,232,233)
-
May support antiviral activity against pathogens via flavonoids that bind to and reduce H1N1-type IV infection (234).
-
May support antimicrobial effects via reducing bacteria that cause upper respiratory tract infections (Gram-positive bacteria Streptococcus pyogenes and group C and G Streptococci) (234).
|
|
Echinacea
|
-
May support increased antiviral, anti-microbial, antioxidant capacity, and increased immune system (159,160).
-
May support immune health via decreased proinflammatory markers (cytokines IL-6, IL-8, and TNF) (159,160).
-
May support adaptive and innate immunity via increased monocytes, neutrophils, natural killer cells, and CD8 T cells (159,160).
|
|
Garlic
|
-
May support cardiovascular health, immune health, joint health, reduced inflammation, gut health, and enhanced antibacterial activity (161).
-
May support cardiovascular health via reduced hypertension, reduced total cholesterol, reduced arterial stiffness (hardening of arteries), and markers of atherosclerosis (161).
|
|
Turmeric 95% curcuminoids
|
-
May support antioxidant, cardio-protective, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, nephro-protective, hepato-protective, immunomodulatory, and anti-rheumatic effects (123).
-
May support reduced inflammation via decreases of inflammatory markers such as c-reactive protein, interleukin 6, tumor necrosis factor, and decreased cytokine production (123).
|
|
Lactobacillus Acidophilus
|
-
May support athletic performance, enhanced gut microbiome, increased muscle mass, immune health, reduced cortisol levels, digestive health, cognitive function, and improved allergy symptoms (103,104, 107, 108, 109).
-
Supports 70% of gut-immunological axis (gut immune system) via enhanced mucosal immune response (toll-like receptors), and upregulation of genetic markers associated with macrophage (gut-immune cell) activity (108, 109).
-
May support digestive and immune health via decreased irritable bowel symptoms, suppression of helicobacter pylori growth (pathogenic bacteria), reduced histamine (reduced allergic response), and reduced gut inflammation (103,104, 107, 108, 109).
-
May support athletic performance via reduction of respiratory tract infections, reduced muscle damage, improved body composition, reduction lactate induced exercise (muscle burn), and body composition (108).
