Frequently asked questions:
Q1 How does this formula support the immune system?
A1 The benefits of Vitamin C on the immune system are
well-known. Vitamin C supports a healthy skin function,
so viruses and bacteria can’t enter our body through
the skin; and stimulates immune cells to attack and
kill microbes more efficiently.1
The body does not store vitamin C. This means it needs to
be consumed daily to ensure adequate levels. A deficiency in
vitamin C may result in a higher susceptibility to infections.2
Research shows that supplementing with vitamin C can help
to both prevent and relieve symptoms of respiratory tract
infections and systemic infections.3
Q2 Why has zinc been added to this formula?
A2 Zinc supports the immune system and low levels can
increase susceptibility to viruses and bacteria.4 Zinc can
stop the rhinovirus (the virus that causes the common
cold) from binding to cells and replicating.5 Research shows
that supplementing with zinc can shorten the duration
of a runny or blocked nose, a scratchy or sore throat and
cough significantly.6,7
Q3 What are the health benefits of elderberries?
A3 Elderberry is the fruit of the elder tree. Native Americans
and European herbalists have used elderberries for their
health benefits for centuries, as they are high in vitamin C.
Each 100 gram fresh berries contains 35mg vitamin C.
This adds up to 60% of the recommended daily intake of
vitamin C.8-10
Elderberries have a long traditional use in relieving the
symptoms of the common cold and flu. Clinical studies
have shown that they can help reduce the severity and
duration of the common cold and flu.11-14
