ACTION:
Immu-Guard is designed to support optimal immune system function. Contains a special proprietary blend of Chinese herbs & other nutrients specifically chosen to support the immune system. The immune system is the complex defense organization in the body that controls abnormal cell development, overcomes infection of all types, regulates cell division, and holds pathogens (bacteria) and viruses in check. The homeostasis (state of balance) of the cells is monitored and primarily regulated by the action of the immune system. The efficiency of the immune system tends to drop off in the mid 40's and by age 70 the immune system is much less effective. The competency of the immune system can, in fact, be aided by proper health care and nutrition support. While there is considerable debate, it does appear that feeding nutrient-specific vitamins and minerals to the immune system will enhance its effectiveness in older age and can help the body bounce back faster after an immune system-draining sickness like pneumonia, etc. There has been a flow of information as well as extensive worldwide research done on Chinese herbs and their traditional uses. It may be entirely possible that specific herbs might, in fact, feed different aspects of the immune system. Unlike other natural supplements with one ingredient isolated for one purpose, this natural formula contains a powerful blend of interactive ingredients which support both a primary organ or body system and also a related secondary organ or body system.

Obtaining Optimum Results:
For optimum results the key word is commitment. Unlike prescription and OTC medications which may cause an immediate response in the body, herbal and nutrient therapy can be a slower process. Commitment to a regular daily supplement schedule is vital, as well as a commitment to taking supplements over a period of time, which could be anywhere from several weeks to several months. This allows enough time for the nutrients and herbs to facilitate change and repair in the body at a cellular level and bring about the desired results.

How the Body Heals:
When taking certain products, you may feel worse before you begin to feel better, and this is more likely with Detox Products. As you move towards balance by adding herbal and nutritional supplements to your lifestyle, healing begins to occur. As part of the healing process, and to set the stage for regeneration, the body could begin to eliminate toxic residues which may have built up over many years. As the nutrients and herbs promote optimum cellular function, old tissues are replaced with new. During the initial phase of healing, as your body begins to clean house (detoxify), you may experience headache, flu-like symptoms or fatigue. This can be relieved by DRINKING LOTS OF WATER and, if necessary, cutting back on your supplements to allow the body to adjust more slowly and comfortably.

The ENZYME DELIVERY SYSTEM™ is a proprietary blend of enzymes (Amylase, Protease, Lipase, and Cellulase) which has been added to this formula. Enzymes are energized protein molecules which play a necessary role in virtually all of the biochemical activities that occur in the body. By harnessing the power of enzymes the body improves its ability to absorb vitamins and key ingredients. These products are formulated to work the same way the body works - as a dynamic system. Maximize the body’s potential for total health with enzyme-enhanced supplements.
