Why Your Immune System Weakens…
Doctors and even naturopaths often express frustration when they see headlines promoting 'immune boosting' supplements.
The reason? You can't really achieve super-human immunity.
Our immune system either functions properly or it doesn't work effectively.
Do you eat foods that have the vitamins these five do?
As we age, our ability to fend off allergens, viruses, common colds, and other bacteria naturally declines...
That is, if our diet doesn't include immune-supporting vitamins like those found in these oils...
As most of us grow older, the quantity and quality of B and T cells produced in our bone marrow diminish.
Without delving too deeply into science, these cells are the producers of your cytokines.
Your cytokines are the ‘soldiers’ of your immune system, standing guard outside your body’s castle gates, ready to attack foreign invaders.
“Some 60-year-olds have the immune system of a 40-year-old, some are more like an 80-year-old,” says Shai Shen-Orr, an immunologist at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology.
Why do some older people have ‘younger’ immune systems?
According to Dayong Wu, a nutritional immunologist at Tufts University in Boston, the answer is vitamins & minerals!
These are important nutrients like:
- Vitamin A - The inflammatory support found in Pumpkin Seed Oil
- Vitamin B - The metabolism helper found in Flax
- Vitamin C - Fennel contains a lot of this well-known vitamin
- Vitamin E - Found in Pumpkin Seeds… and critical for T cell production
- Vitamin K - Necessary for bone and blood health, also found in Coriander
- Zinc - Helps fight infections and also found in Coriander
Let's not forget the rock star of immunity, Black Cumin Seed Oil.
Packed with thymoquinone, a potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant compound, this elixir supports immune cell function like natural killer cells and T-cells, while its antimicrobial properties fend off harmful pathogens.
Rich in essential vitamins, minerals such as B-vitamins, zinc, and iron, and Omega-6 and Omega-9 fatty acids, it fortifies immune cell membranes and promotes gut health, where a major part of your immune system resides.
Additionally, Black Cumin Seed Oil balances immune responses and regulates histamine, alleviating allergy symptoms and ensuring your immune system functions optimally.
Unleash the natural defense-boosting power of this ancient remedy and keep your immune health in top gear!
Like all of our products, these are stored in a special UV light-protected miron glass and can store for a long time without going rancid.
That means this is also a great time to stock up - or have some on hand to offer someone you care about when they need it most.
