With the continued threat of the next "super flu pandemic" it is always a good time to keep our immune system at maximum strength. Immune systems are complex and evolving to keep us healthy from a trillion hazards.

Thankfully Enzogenol has a powerful cleansing action that is known to be beneficial to the liver and immune system. Antioxidants in general are very good for our immune systems and the liver is the most important organ in the body for assimilation and distribution of antioxidants and cleansers to the cells.

Enzogenol® contains more than 90% of all known polyphenols. Scientific evidence has established that polyphenols are essential to proper human nutrition and may play a role in preventing degenerative conditions by enhancing the immune system. Recent studies provide evidence that increased consumption of polyphenols can reduce the risk of prostate, breast, lung and digestive cancers.

In addition Enzogenol® can stimulate phagocytosis, an immune system response in which cells ingest and eliminate harmful micro-organisms and foreign heavy metals.

Research has also shown the amazing ability of this aqueous extract Enzogenol to inhibit the oxidation of low lipoproteins, the so called "bad cholesterol" involved in arterial heart disease. Therefore it is very important that the liver be kept in very good condition, as its main function is to decrease toxins in the blood stream.

Your Immune System is a Battleground Building A Strong Immune System

When we start to think about colds and flu, and how to survive another winter season are we already too late?

The immune system needs attention in the allergy season too!  In fact, building a strong immune system should be part of everyone's daily health and wellness program!

Ben Franklin said, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”.  But you may ask, how do I prevent?

It’s a great question with a short answer; by keeping your immune system strong and healthy.

Here’s how it works...the immune system is like the security system in your home, this system is continuously monitoring the environment for anything that is out of place, and when an unusual situation is detected, it dispatches the most appropriate defence mechanisms.

The immune system as paraphrased by one scientist, “... is the sixth sense, it recognizes viruses, bacteria, fungi, microbes, germs, free radicals, mutant cells…” and we then have a variety of “ soldiers ”, each with it own weapons and methods of attack to destroy these invaders.

Strengthening the immune system tends to be an after-thought

When our immune systems work well, we rarely take notice. However, when we get sick, we realise our body's immune system is getting worn down, realise our immune system has been neglected and start to look for ways to strengthen it. 

• Certain antioxidants play a big role in keeping the immune system strong and vital.

• Did you know, the immune system does a lot more than fighting off colds and flu?
  
   

Anti Ageing And The Immune System

Today, enlightened thinking is that the ageing process is more closely related to the functioning of the immune system than the passage of time.

A weakened immune system results in an increased susceptibility to virtually every type of illness.
Common signs of immune system weakness include

• Fatigue

• Listlessness

• Repeated infections

• Inflammation

• Allergies

• Slow wound healing

• Chronic diarrhea

• Infections that represent an overgrowth e.g. vaginal yeast infections, oral thrush, Candida
