Immune Health
Your immune system is your body's 'department of defence'. It protects you from potentially harmful 'invaders' (nasties that cause illness) by recognising and responding to them as threats.
The secret to staying well is building a healthy and resilient immune system that can act as your army against illness. Your Practitioner can provide advice on diet and exercise and prescribe supplements that are specifically designed to build immune resilience, reduce the length of time you're sick, and may help to prevent an infection from recurring.
Building Immune Health
The Metagenics Immunity Range has tailored products to help keep your immune system healthy, helping to manage symptoms of common immune challenges.
Immune Maintenance
Our immune systems are complex networks of cells, tissues & organs that work in synergy to keep us fighting fit. Our immune system is tested by lifestyle factors (nutritional deficiencies, sleep, stress, diet and exercise). Practitioners can provide advice on keeping your immune system healthy and test your nutrient levels.

Fighting Infections*
During illness, our bodies may need more assistance to help combat symptoms and aid with recovery. Winter brings an increased risk of contracting the common cold infection and upper respiratory tract infections as the weather cools down and our immune systems are left more vulnerable.

Allergy Relief
Allergies result when your immune system over-responds to external factors (pollen, dust mites, particular foods, or pet dander). People with allergies have an immune system that perceives these factors as threats and initiates an immune response to eliminate them.

Andrographis
Andrographis is a herb with a long history of use for viral and bacterial infections.
Andrographis is well-researched in managing common cold symptoms, including sneezing, runny nose, nasal congestion, sore throat, cough, hoarseness, chills and fever.
Medicinal Mushrooms
Certain medicinal mushroom extracts (e.g. shiitake, reishi, coriolus, etc) have a powerful effect on the immune system by enhancing the activity of protective white blood cells.
These mushroom extracts can be used to provide relief from acute infections.
They can also be taken daily as a remedy to maintain good immune health.
Zinc
Zinc is a crucial mineral for normal development and function of your white blood cells. It also plays a role in the production of antibodies, which remember previous infections and help you fight against them. Therefore, zinc deficiency can reduce your ability to fight bacteria.
Zinc supplementation has also been shown to reduce the severity and duration of colds and sore throats.
Your Practitioner can check your body's stores of zinc using a simple taste test. If your zinc levels are low, your Practitioner may give you a supplement. Look for an easily absorbed form of zinc that has fewer digestive side effects, such as zinc bisglycinate (Meta Zn®).
Vitamin C
Vitamin C is well-known and widely used in supporting immune health.
Vitamin C works by increasing the presence of white blood cells and reducing the incidence of the common cold.
Vitamin C has been shown to work best when given with other nutrients such as zinc.
Probiotics
Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that live in your digestive system, also known as 'friendly or good bacteria'.
These beneficial bacteria help keep your digestive system healthy, help you digest your food and keep your immune system in tip-top condition.
Lactobacillus rhamnosus (LGG®), Lactobacillus plantarum (HEAL 9), (8700:2) are well-researched strains of probiotics that have been proven to help support healthy immune system function.
