How to Ignite Your Body’s Astonishing Immune System
If you want to avoid a cold, flu or worse infection this year, then it’s more than a matter of staying warm and dry and not breathing in when someone near you sneezes. No matter how clever your evasive action, if you’re run down and your immune system is suppressed with high levels of stress, insufficient sleep and good-quality nutrition, it’s only a matter of time before you pick up a bacteria, virus of fungi from a random surface –– be it coins, dollar bills, door knobs or counter tops.
Your body’s natural immune defences –– in good times able to swiftly identify, surround and kill the pathogen, then create additional antibodies to remember the enemy in future –– are too weak to do their job properly, and the symptoms of infection emerge. The redness of inflammation, additional mucus as white blood cells fight the multiplying invaders, swollen lymph glands and certainly tiredness as your body’s energy is sapped during the struggle, all ensue.
Added to the burden of your immune system’s daily fights are the toxins that you and nearly every other American carry. It’s not just the natural cellular wastes from last night’s pizza, wine or beer, although these can slow down the detoxification process.
There is perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), used in creating non-stick cooking utensils, now leached into our major waterways and bloodstreams; bisphenol A (BPA), a plastics chemical that mimics the natural hormone oestrogen and is blamed for the epidemics of infertility and breast, prostate and ovarian cancer now besieging developed countries; not to mention mercury in dental amalgams and fish and the whole range of crop pesticides and fertilizers our bodies were never designed to resist day after day.
When you think about it all, it’s a wonder we aren’t sick more often but it isn’t so amazing that so many of us are sheer-bone “tired all the time”. That’s the bad news. But the good news is...
You Can Protect Yourself and Minimise the Impact
of Everyday Toxins & Nasty Bugs
Resting and building up your immune system with plenty of rest, exercise, fresh air and food and fluids will help –– so will Lymph Support. Lymph Support helps the lymphatic system efficiently transport immune cells and the casualties from infection fighting around the body for removal. Lymph Support is based on the known cold and flu virus fighters vitamin C and zinc, but has the special proprietary ingredients of freeze-dried lymph tissue, shiitake and maitake mushroom extracts, bee propolis, astragalus root and bitter melon extract.
Shiitake and maitake mushooms are popular in traditional Japanese medicine for their immunological benefits and their antitumor activity is now being researched scientifically; propolis is the antibacterial resin bees make from treebuds for their hives; astragalus is China’s Echinacea – used to boost the immune system against viral infection. Bitter melon has been used as a tonic in Asia, Africa and Latin American for centuries and its antiviral properties are now under investigation in laboratories around the world.
Together, these ingredients lubricate and tone your lymphatic system so it can support immune cells on the battlefield of infection, carry off the wounded, and ‘reload’ the body so it’s fit and well to further enjoy life.
