So you need your immune system operating well?? Who doesn't? But a healthy immune system is most important when there are dangers of viruses or diseases lurking about. IF by chance, you get a virus, you want your body operating at its very best. You want it to have access to all the nutrients it needs. You want it not to be bogged down by toxins and extra

Immunity
I'm just rushing to get this information out there, so I don't have as much detail as I'd like, but here's the basics:
A healthy immune system can often (not always, but often) detect an intruder and within 30 minutes be able to send attacker cells to get rid of the intruder.
- In order to do this, several systems need to be supported, not just the immune.
- Also certain nutrients need to be readily available to the body for use. Nutrients like amino acids, antioxidants, minerals, omega 3's, enzymes, and vitamins play a huge role in so many processes. We can't be deficient, or else we compromise a system.
- Also, at the same time, if the body is under attack, or under stress, various nutrients might rapidly deplete and must be reintroduced.
- Cellular protection is vital to a cells vulnerability to external oxidative factors or threats. Protecting cells at the very basic cellular level is key.
Let's go over a few key supplements that help the body support itself.
1) As mentioned above, Carotenoid Complex. An INSANE antioxidant and protector of cells, these fruit and vegetable nutrients are a key player and fundamental support to the body. See above 3 benefits. Take 3-6 per day.
2) PhytoDefense. This product not only has 3 Carotenoid Complex capsules, but additional Flavenoid Complex and Cruciferous Plus tablets that provide additional antioxidant nutrients, protecting fat-based cells and water-based cells. This trio has been known to help suppress auto-immune diseases, as well as fight back cancer growth. Taking 1-2 packets per day would be a super power support.
3) Basic Multi-vitamin (found in ProVitality) - the body needs a variety of minerals and vitamins. Some of these nutrients being water-soluble, its important to get them each and every day in a very absorbable form for the body to use. Take 1-2 packets per day.
- If you want to take a liquid supplement, take LiquVite. Great for children. 1-2 tsp per day. Also includes Tre-en-en and Flavenoids.
- If you want to take individual nutrients, consider:
- Vitamin A (from fish liver oil) - super immune helper
- Super B - a full spectrum of B vitamins, needed during stress
- Super C - threshold controlled for time release, with bioflavenoids
- Vitamin E (all 8 parts, water miscible, from a non-GMO source)
- Cal-Mag with 1000IU Vit D - chelated, correct ratios, from natural seashell source, very bioavailable, supports blood pressure and nerve function
- Multi-Min -chelated wide range of minerals, including chromium and zinc and selenium
- Magnesium complex (3 forms of magnesium, needed for over 700 processes in the body)
- Tre-en-en - essential grain oils needed for cellular nutrient absorption and waste removal
4) NeoLife Shake - free form amino acids form a very real and serious need for the body. Amino acids are needed to every hormone, every enzyme (not to mention every muscle, hair, nail cell). It is a key part to the immune system. 1-2 shakes per day gives a wide variety of all 22 amino acids for the body to use. Don't limit your protein intake to just your regular protein sources. Get a broad spectrum of all 22 with each serving, along with 22 other vitamins and minerals. No artificial anything in this shake. Also, a great "drink" for the weak and weary, dehydrated, etc.
5) Zinc - known for its ability to support the immune system and help quick recovery, be sure to get a good supply of this mineral. Found in ProVitality and Multi-Min, and chelated Zinc. Don't overdo it, though.
6) Garlic Allium Complex - a powerful concentrate from garlic, leeks, and the allium family that literally kills bacteria and viruses. Stories have included people taking up to 6 per day, along with a complementary Acidophilus Plus (probiotic) to rebuild gut flora as you go.
7) Super C (tablets) or All C (chewables)- A super antioxidant and a must-have for immunity. All C has the equivalent of 4 oranges in each tablet.
8) Salmon Oil Plus - complete omega 3 supplement from wild fish (no mercury, no toxins - tested for over 200 toxins with zero allowed). A powerful antiinflammatory nutrient needed for so many processes, including cardiovascular, mental, development, hormonal, immunity, etc.
9) Tre - A polyphenol-rich nutritional drink that's super powerful for helping all the body's defenses.
10) Magnesium complex (3 forms of magnesium, needed for over 700 processes in the body)
