4 Effective Supplements To Support Your Immune System


Maximize your body’s immunity EVERY DAY!

It’s important to give your immune system all the nutrients it needs to create a powerful and natural resistance to invading bacteria and viruses.

These four Healthy Goods products will ensure your immune system functions at its optimum level — they work cohesively for both long- and short-term immune support.

1. VRL Shield and the Immune System

  • Excellent for those experiencing a chronic viral challenge.
  • Supports immune function and resistance.
  • Promotes the body's natural immune defenses, liver function, and detoxification.
  • VRL Shield contains Selenium, an essential trace mineral that acts as an antioxidant to help defend against excessive free radicals.
  • It contains the plant extracts Dionea, Astragalus, Milk Thistle, Phylanthus Amarius, Uvaria, and Olive Leaf to help maintain a healthy reaction to immune challenges.
  • It contains amino acids L-Lysine and N-Acetyl Cysteine to promote optimal defense for seasonal immune challenges.

2. Glycophagen GI Wellness for Gut-Immune Support

  • Over 70% of the body's immune activity originates in the gut, specifically at the lymphatic ducts lining the intestinal wall.
  • Glycophagen GI Wellness combines prebiotics, probiotics, and gut-lining nutrients that work together to support a balanced microbiome and healthy gut tissue.
  • Excellent for long-term immune challenges.

3. ImmunoZinc with Quercetin and Immune Support

  • ImmunoZinc with Quercetin promotes zinc delivery into the cells.
  • Supports the body's innate resistance to pathogens.
  • Maintains a balanced inflammatory response.
  • ImmunoZinc contains quercetin and EGCG which act as zinc ionophores. An ionophore promotes zinc delivery into the cell where it can support the body’s innate resistance to pathogens and overall immune health.
  • Bromelain is an enzyme found in pineapple stem and provides immunomodulatory effects and promotes normal inflammatory levels.
  • This formula was developed in 2020 based on studies examining the harmonious synergy between Quercetin, EGCG, and Zinc.

4. Lysine C and Immune Support

  • Lysine is an amino acid that supports the immune system’s viral defenses, particularly regarding the replication of viruses such as herpes simplex, supporting overall immune health.
  • Lysine and Vitamin C are needed for collagen production. This is important for wound healing, skin integrity, and maintaining healthy tissues that are part of the immune system's physical defense against infections.
  • Vitamin C enhances the body's ability to fight off pathogens, while lysine directly helps inhibit viruses. Together, they provide a robust defense, making the immune system more resilient against infections, particularly viral ones.
  • Take Lysine C daily for powerful long-term immune support.
  • Take higher doses for acute infections.
  • Lysine C is a tasty powder you can mix with water, a smoothie, or juice, and it provides an effective dose of both nutrients.

Please let me know if you have any questions about these potent and effective immunity-supporting blends.
