These high -strength supplements which come in AM and PM formulas provide 24-hour immune system support. All ingredients have been carefully researched, dosed and combined in this two-part formula to allow the key essential minerals to work in the most optimised manner. The AM formula supports the immune system and at the same time provides an energy and nutrient boost with Vitamins D + K2, C, A and E. It contains ICF™ (Immunity Co-Factors) Compound, a beneficial partner to Zinc and also Zinc Picolinate, proven in a placebo-controlled trial to be the most bioavailable form which actually increases Zinc levels recorded in the body. This formula benefits from a Live Culture and Prebiotic together with organic Astragalus, Ginger, Liquorice and medicinal Reishi mushrooms, super- beneficial to the body's immune system. Of course the PM formula supports the immune system too but goes one step further to support the body's response to inflammation via an FSC™ (Full-Spectrum Curcumin) Compound (containing Organic Turmeric, Pure Curcumin, & Piperine). This allows Curcumin to work most effectively couched within its source herb Turmeric and enhanced with Black Pepper Piperine for maximum absorption. The PM formula contains a strong Iron dose, which is so helpful for periods of tiredness, fatigue and oxygen transport support, as well as B-Vitamins, known for their immune-supporting and energy-producing roles.

We believe our Immune System Boost is the strongest formula for immune system support available globally, as it has some of the best evidence-based, immune-supporting nutrients in the best form obtainable at the highest and safest amounts.” Immune System Boost is £65 for one month’s supply (120 capsules) is available from www.beimmune24.com Note: As a huge fan of vitamin and mineral supplements, I have been taking these Immune System Boost AM and PM formulas for a while now and I truly feel that they are beneficial. Soo much so, that I don't hesitate to give them a 10 out of 10 rating. (The company sent me samples to try in return for an honest review)  Flu season is here and those eligible are being urged to get the flu jab to prevent extra strain on the NHS. However, GPs have warned of a potential shortage in flu inoculations due to increase in demand as talks around immunity continue to dominate headlines.
It’s therefore safe to say health is at the front of our minds which raises the question, what can we do to support our immune system in a pandemic in winter? How do I know my immune system is low? You are more likely to have frequent or prolonged colds. Have you ever worked tirelessly to meet a deadline, to be met with flu or a cold after submission? This is due to stress. According to the NHS website, stress can take its toll on your body and your immune system. Similarly you might find that cuts take longer to heal or you are suddenly plagued by digestive problems. What can I do to strengthen my immune system? Getting the right nutrition is key to fighting off illness. The World Health Organisation’s research has shown that sufficient vitamin D in your diet can reduce your risk of experiencing at least one respiratory infection, including the common cold, influenza or pneumonia by a third. The Mayo Clinic also reported that lack of sleep can affect your immune system. “During sleep, your immune system releases proteins called cytokines, some of which help promote sleep. Certain cytokines need to increase when you have an infection or inflammation or when you're under stress." Sleep deprivation may decrease the production of these protective cytokines. How much sleep should I get? Research suggests most adults need 7 to 8 hours of good sleep each night. Teenagers need 9 to 10 and primary school aged children may need 10 or more hours. It’s worth mentioning that more sleep isn’t always better. Adults sleeping more than 9 to10 hours each night may result in poor quality, broken sleep. What natural supplements can I take? Opting for a natural plant based supplement when feeling run down could reduce your reliance on pharmacuetials and stop a cold in its tracks before it really takes hold. Echinacea is recognised as one of the most powerful medicinal plants in this area and should be a staple item in your kit of winter health essentials. Research shows it can reduce the chance of developing a cold by 58% and speed up recovery by 1.4 days. Eleven per cent of the 252 drugs the World Health Organisation considers essential is derived exclusively from flowering plants and up to 50 per cent of drugs approved over the past 30 years have come directly or indirectly from natural products. Potter’s Herbals Echinacea Tincture is a herbal medicinal product used to relieve symptoms of the common cold and influenza type infections. The specific combination of traditional herbal ingredients including certified organically produced Echinacea makes this product one of the most potent formulas on the market. Research from Potter’s Herbals , the UK’s leading proven, natural healthcare found that:
What else can I do? After every use, wash your reusable mask. Hand washing, disinfecting surfaces and not touching your face are all vital to stopping the spread of any virus.
