As the seasons change and temperatures drop, it is more important than ever to focus on supporting your immune system. Many of us view our overall health and wellness as a single issue – when in reality it breaks down into many different components like diet, exercise, and lifestyle choices.
While taking steps that may help support your immune response may seem overwhelming, there are helpful strategies that you can utilize to optimize your efforts. Uncovering the power of these age-old approaches that have been used for generations can ignite the energy within that encourages true health and well-being.
Our Immune System in Cold Weather
When temperatures drop and the weather gets colder, we are more susceptible to illness. One of the main reasons for this is that the cold air causes a temperature drop in the nasal tissue causing our immune systems to weaken by almost half. *†
Viruses and bacteria (like rhinovirus) often spread more quickly in colder temperatures due to our increased susceptibility. *†
Ways to Support the Immune System Naturally
Natural solutions are proven to be effective in building immunity and preventing illnesses and diseases. One way to support the immune response is to eat a healthy diet high in antioxidants and other nutrients. Some specific foods that are known to support the immune system include fruits and vegetables and nuts and seeds.*†
Another way to support the immune system is through supplements. There are a number of supplements that can help support the immune response, including vitamin C, vitamin D, quercetin, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids.*
Quercetin Phytosome (Quercefit®) with enhanced Phytosome technology offers up to 20 times more bioavailability vs. standard quercetin.* Pair this with Pure Albion® Zinc as Glycinate Chelate, considered to be the Gold-Standard in quality minerals, for maximum bioavailability.*
Using age-old nutrients
Age-old nutrients are a form of nutrition that has been used for centuries and is typically found in traditional diets. They come from foods that have existed for a long time and have been consumed by humans for generations.*
These ancient ingredients are also full of dietary fiber and antioxidants which promote healthy digestion as well as provide essential components for proper body functioning and overall wellness.*
Things like Quercetin, Turmeric, and Vitamin C are all examples of time-tested nutrients designed by nature to help support the body’s optimal state.*
