EXTREME Immune Boosting Herbs YOU NEED NOW More Than EVER

EXTREME Immune Boosting Herbs YOU NEED NOW More Than EVER

This “flu” season has been going on for way too long!  However, you can safely and effectively use high antioxidant herbs and high-quality supplements to naturally increase your immune system without the nasty and unknown side effects of the current pharmaceutical options.

More than ever, people are starting to conduct their own research for natural and safe alternatives due to the uncertainty surrounding these times.

To avoid catching colds and flu this winter, use these natural, safe alternatives to boost your immune system:

 

Maritime Pine – the extract contains bioflavonoids and catechin, caffeic acid, ferulic acid, procyanidins, and taxifolin. It has some of the most abundant polyphenolic substances in the plant kingdom. These are called Oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs)

Jacques Cartier, a French Explorer, led a winter expedition up the St. Lawrence River in New York in 1534. His crew soon found themselves trapped by ice and were forced to survive on hard biscuits and salted meat. They then began to show signs and symptoms of scurvy long before anyone knew what caused it. By chance, a surprise meeting with a Native American showed them how to make tea from the needles and bark of pine trees.  To their surprise, the men got better and survived.

Maritime Pine contains a potent antioxidant, anti-mutagenic, anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral activities.

Maritime Pine’s benefits are currently used for antioxidant therapy; asthma; diabetes; cholesterol reduction; chronic venous insufficiency; and leg ulcers.  As well as hypertension, gingival bleeding/plaque, oedema, retinopathy, sunburn, and to reduce the risk of thrombotic events from long-haul flights.

It is shown to have antioxidant activity in several in-vitro, in-vivo, and human studies. The extract reduces lipid peroxidation and oxidation of LDL (the bad cholesterol).   It increases the supply of alpha-tocopherol to cells and protects them from oxidative stress.

 

Sweet Wormwood – Extracts of sweet wormwood have been used in traditional Chinese medicine and are used for many infectious microbial and viral diseases worldwide.

Artemisinin, the extract of Sweet Wormwood, is a potent antimalarial.  Its various synthetic derivatives are among some of the most widely used malarial drugs in the world.

In 2015, the Nobel Prize was awarded to researchers who created treatments for some of humanity’s most prominent diseases, including malaria, river blindness, and other parasitic infections.

The award for the development of Ivermectin as a parasitic treatment was shared with William Campbell and Satoshi Omura.  They shared the price with Youvou Tu, who isolated artemisinin and demonstrated its effectiveness against malaria.

There may be more to sweet wormwood than just the derivative of artemisinin too.  A clinical trial showed that a decoction of sweet wormwood effectively eliminated symptoms and dramatically lowered parasite burden in adults with chronic malaria.  The cure rates were, on average, 74% despite providing far lower levels of artemisinin than are used as an isolated drug.

Ongoing work is still needed to identify all the synergistic compounds in sweet wormwood. In 2021, an in vitro study found that sweet wormwood extracts inhibited SARS-CoV-2 (the infectious substance of COVID-19) infection. The extracts’ active component(s) was likely something besides artemisinin (or combining elements) that block the virus’s entry into the body.

AndrographisThis herb has a very long history of use for bacterial and viral infections. Effective for treating symptoms of colds, including sneezing, nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat, hoarseness, cough, chills, and fevers.  An essential scientific finding was that a dose of 6gms daily of Andrographis is equivalent, if not better, than paracetamol to treat sore throats and fevers.  Especially in upper respiratory tract infections.

Zinc – Needed for over 200 enzymatic reactions in the body is crucial for the normal development and function of white blood cells.  A deficiency of Zinc will dramatically reduce your ability to fight viruses and bacteria.  Zinc is essential to produce the antibodies your body requires to remember previous infections and protect you against them in the future.

Vitamin C – In reasonably high doses, Vitamin C increases the activity of infection-fighting white blood cells.  It is most effective when given at the same time as Zinc.  Most of your Vitamin C is held in your Adrenal Glands, which are essentially the stress glands of your body.  Suppose you have been under stress or impaired health for a considerable amount of time. In that case, chances are that your Vitamin C stores have been depleted.

Vitamin D3 – High Doses of Vitamin D3 are responsible for your immune system. It can help to push auto-immune disorders into remission.  It helps protect against respiratory conditions, aids in regulating calcium and phosphorous for bone health, lifts your mood by supporting your neurotransmitters’ production, builds your immunity against foreign pathogens in your body, and helps cognition.  Vitamin D3 also soothes inflammatory conditions in the body, suppresses renin to lower blood pressure, and assists in the growth of new cells.

Nature’s Temple’s Extreme Forte Immune-Boosting Tonic contains the highest strength of these powerful immune-boosting herbs in one 240ml bottle!  The pure, high quality herbs we use are:  Andrographis, Astragalus, Elderberry, Maritime Pine and Sweet Wormwood.
