Propolis Extract

Propolis has been used for thousands of years by ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans for its multiple medicinal properties and remarkable safety profile. Assyrians put it on wounds and tumours to fight infection and help the healing process. Egyptians used it to embalm mummies. Greeks used it to treat abscesses.

Science only recently started to rediscover its powerful healing potential.

Researchers have identified more than 300 compounds in propolis. The majority of these compounds are forms of polyphenols. Polyphenols are antioxidants that fight disease and damage in the body. 

In modern history propolis is known for it’s antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties

Olive Leaf Extract

In the early 1900’s, a bitter compound from the leaf of olive trees was discovered, it was called oleuropein. It was determined to be one of the plant’s most powerful disease fighting compounds. 

Olive Leaf has traditionally been used for: Natural antibiotic, Anti-fungal, Anti-viral, Immune booster, Relief from the common cold, and MANY more.

In 1962 researchers found that oleuropein could lower blood pressure and increase blood flow in the coronary arteries, relieve arrhythmias, and prevent intestinal muscle spasms.

In the late 1960s, researchers showed that elenolic acid, another powerful compound found in the olive leaf, could kill many kinds of viruses, bacteria and parasitic protozoans.

Olive Leaf is also effective against antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains, yeast strains and other fungi that contribute to chronic fatigue syndrome.

A 1993 study reported that olive leaf extract treatment provided relief from Herpesvirus symptoms.

A 1994 experiment found that oleuropein inhibited the oxidation of low-density lipoproteins.

According to Dr. Morton Walker (Author of more than 60 books and over 1800 clinical papers) “there is not a known pathogen that olive leaf is not effective against”

Pelargonium sidoides 

Pelargonium sidoides has traditionally been used for: Acute bronchitis, headache, fever, fatigue, cough, chest pain while coughing, sputum in the lungs, 

rhonchi (coarse rattling sound associated with mucus in the airway, similar to wheezing and crackles) and nasal dripping.

Studies have found that up to 60% of patients suffering from acute bronchitis fully resolve their symptoms within a week of Pelargonium sidoides supplementation.

Evidence suggests Pelargonium sidoides can reduce the duration of the common cold, while treating symptoms. 

It may also provide benefits for people suffering from lung disorders.

Pelargonium sidoides have anti-infective properties.

Helps fight viruses and stimulates the immune system to hunt down invaders.

Pelargonium sidoides may also reduce the replication of the herpes simplex virus

Vitamin C

One of the most well known supplements must be Vitamin C

Vitamin C is a powerful micronutrient and crucial part of the diet. From reversing skin ageing to reducing cholesterol levels, studies have found that vitamin C benefits many aspects of health, from the inside out.

Getting enough may help ward off illness and infection, enhance iron absorption, and even reduce the risk of painful conditions like gout. Vitamin C has also been shown to be effective in supporting the mind against depression.

Vitamin C acts as a natural antioxidant in the body, preventing the buildup of free radicals to protect your body against disease.

One of the most well-known benefits of vitamin C is its ability to improve immune health. In fact, loading up on vitamin C foods is often used as a first line of defence during cold and flu season.

Studies have repeatedly confirmed the immune-boosting benefits of vitamin C. A review published in the Annals of Nutrition & Metabolism showed that getting enough vitamin C may help reduce symptoms and shorten the duration of respiratory tract infections, such as the common cold. 

Vitamin C may also help decrease the incidence of other conditions like pneumonia and diarrhoea as well.

Rose Hips extract

Rosehips are extremely effective in treating a wide variety of health conditions.

Rosehips contains vitamins, minerals and organic compounds like; vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin E, B-complex, calcium, iron, selenium, manganese, magnesium, phosphorous, potassium, sulphur, silicon, and zinc.

Furthermore, the organic compounds, such as lycopene, pectin, lutein, beta-carotene, are also very powerful and essential to the body.

The antioxidant components, which include flavonoids, phytochemicals, and carotenoids also contribute to the health benefits. 

Rose hips have an impressive amount of natural vitamin C, which is one of the best methods to boost the immune system. Vitamin C stimulates white blood cells and is also essential in the prevention of 

asthma and the general health of the respiratory system. This also can be seen in the reduction of respiratory conditions such as colds and flu's through the intake of rose hips and its high levels of vitamin C. 

Echinacea Purpurea extract

Echinacea is a native North American purple coneflower that was discovered and used as a traditional herbal remedy for more than 400 years by the Great Plains Indian tribes. Technically classified as an herb, several species of the echinacea plant are used to make medicine from its flowers, leaves and roots.

Prior to 1950 and the introduction of antibiotics, echinacea held an esteemed medicinal status. As the health care industry shifted, antibiotics became the rage, and the now famed herb lost much of its esteem.

The University of Maryland Medical Center reports that the portion of the plant that grows above ground is the most effective. In Germany, dietary herbs are regulated by the government, and above ground parts of the Echinacea purpurea species are approved as natural remedies for urinary tract infections, upper respiratory tract infections, colds and slow-healing wounds. 

The University of Connecticut performed a meta-analysis study that evaluated 14 studies and determined that:

Echinacea cuts the chances of catching a common cold by 58 percent.

Echinacea reduces the duration of the common cold by almost one-and-a-half days.

Craig Coleman, Assistant Professor of Pharmacy Practice and lead author of the study, added that, “The take home message from our study is that echinacea does indeed have powerful cold prevention and cold treatment benefits.”

Vitamin D3

Also known as the “sunshine vitamin”, Vitamin D is an essential fat-soluble vitamin. 

It can either be obtained in the diet, through food and dietary supplements, or synthesised in the skin upon exposure to sunlight.

Vitamin D plays a role in calcium and phosphorus balance important in bone health, and nerve and muscle activity.

It also regulates blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, immune function, cell production, and insulin secretion.

It plays a potential role in prevention and therapy of cancer and chronic conditions such as autoimmune disorders, cardiovascular disease, and infections.

Supplementation with this vitamin has been shown to improve muscle strength, balance, and physical performance.

Studies indicate that this vitamin is important for brain development and its deficiency is associated with a wide range of psychiatric and neurological diseases.

It may protect brain cells through detoxification pathways. Furthermore, it also helps synthesis of proteins necessary for survival of brain cells in ageing and neurological diseases.

Epidemiological studies show that low concentrations of vitamin D are associated with: impairments in cognitive functions such as memory and orientation, diagnosis of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, higher rates of psychotic experiences and schizophrenia, depressive symptoms, and low mood.

Studies have shown potent effects of vitamin D on both innate and adaptive immunity.

It has the potential to influence a wide range of immune disorders, particularly infectious and autoimmune diseases.

Vitamin D may be beneficial for inflammatory bowel disease and celiac disease

N-A-C

N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine NAC has the ability to reduce mucus secretions and phlegm, as well as to reduce coughing, wheezing and trouble breathing. This makes it helpful in treating conditions including chronic bronchitis (defined as the presence of chronic productive coughs for more than three months in two consecutive years), as well as colds and the flu.

In addition, there’s evidence that it can be an adjunct treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (the fourth-leading cause of death in the United States) and emphysema.

Quercetin

Quercetin is a natural antihistamine and an anti-inflammatory, making it effective for naturally lowering the effects of season and food allergies, plus asthma and skin reactions. Histamines are chemicals that are released when the immune system detects an allergy or sensitivity, and they are what account for uncomfortable symptoms we face whenever the body has an allergic reaction.

Quercetin can help stabilise the release of histamines from certain immune cells, which results in decreased symptoms like coughs, watery eyes, runny noses, hives, swollen lips or tongue, and indigestion. In fact, it’s so effective that it is used in ancient Chinese herbal formulas created to block allergies to certain foods (such as peanuts), known as food allergy herbal formulas. Studies show that quercetin is equivalent at fighting allergies to some prescription medications, all with little to no side effects.

Astragalus Extract

Astragalus enhance the immune system by increasing the production of white blood cells, which are crucial for fighting off infections.

Astragalus has anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce inflammation and may be beneficial in conditions like arthritis.

Zinc Picolinate

Zinc picolinate is considered one of the most easily absorbed forms of zinc, making it effective for addressing zinc deficiencies.

Zinc is crucial for maintaining a healthy immune system. It helps the body fight off infections and supports the production and function of white blood cells.
