Kick Those Winter blues and Support Your Immune System

Winter is officially upon us and with so many bugs and illnesses around we definitely need as much help as we can get to prepare ourselves for these cold months. Our immunity is key to this preparation and we need as much help as we can get from nutritional supplements to prepare us.

It is known that particular vitamins such as Vitamin C, Vitamin D3 help support overall immunity and minerals such as Zinc but it’s hard to always know which product to use or why that product would be beneficial. We’re sure that everyone has experience some sort of cough or flu at a time in their lives and this often brings very annoying symptoms such as runny nose, headache and high temperature. Here, we will discuss the top nutritional supplements to take during these cold months which aid in boosting our immune system

Wellness formula is a powerful combination of herbs, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals which may help boost your well-being and immune system. Wellness Formula is high in vitamins A and C which have been authorised by the Commission Regulation (EU) 2012, to contribute to the normal functioning of the immune system. Wellness Formula also contains vitamin D and copper which have also been authorised to help the normal functioning of the immune system.

As we all know that during the winter months we are more likely to be depleted of our vitamin d storage and therefore require a supplement in the form of vitamin D3. Studies have shown that taking a vitamin D3 supplement can aid in boosting the immune system and fighting off those winter blues. Research has shown that vitamin D3 supplements play a key role in boosting the immune system. The Commission Regulation (EU) 2012 has authorised that Vitamin D contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system. Nature’s Answer vitamin D3 4000IU is a high quality source with 240 sprays per bottle which nearly last a whole year!!

Probiotics are live microorganisms which are naturally found in certain foods from sauerkraut, kimchi, live-cultured yoghurt to fermented vegetables. Within our body we have our own community of foreign bacteria which are critical to our health and well-being as we are mostly made of bacteria; in fact bacterial cells outnumber our own cells.  The majority of these bacteria cells are found within our digestive system and are vital to our health and immunity. Probiotics are a source of good bacteria which can help fight off bad bacteria within your gut and boost your immune system. As the season changes in October, a high potency of probiotics such as Jarrow’s Ultra J-Dophilus 50 billion should be taken for at least two months.

Remember nourish your body with nutrients!
