Nutraceuticals: Immune Enhancers and Herbal Products

The immune system is rather like a car battery, "quickly rundown but the recharging process takes much longer." We are focused on maintaining immunity levels through the use of water and fat-soluble antioxidants and also in the application of herbal products, which may be adaptogens, immune enhancers or have a role in supporting the mucosal system. Due to the complex nature of the immune system, we believe is better using a combination of herbal extracts, which will address the requirement for macro- phage stimulation by elevating immunoglobulin levels and also in developing killer T cells. People with a good immune system will perform better, the stimulation of the immune system in a disease situation, reduces the availability of nutrients for normal growth. There are vast range of chemicals found in plants, which include bioflavonoids such as polyphenols, alkaloids, carotenoids and tannins. Some play a defensive role whilst others are more supportive.
