Maximize your body’s immunity EVERYDAY!
It’s important to give your immune system all the nutrients it needs to create a powerful and natural resistance to invading bacteria and viruses.
These four Uckele products will ensure your immune system functions at its optimum level — they work cohesively for both long- and short-term immune support.
VRL Shield and the Immune System
- Excellent for those experiencing a chronic viral challenge.
- Supports immune function and resistance.
- Promotes the body's natural immune defenses, liver function and detoxification.
VRL Shield Ingredient Details
- VRL Shield contains Selenium, which is an essential trace mineral that acts as an antioxidant to defend against excessive free radicals
-
It contains the plant extracts Dionea, Astragalus, Milk Thistle, Phylanthus Amarius and Uraria and Olive Leaf to help maintain a healthy reaction to immune challenges.
-
It contains amino acids L-Lysine and N-Acetyl Cysteine to promote optimal defense for seasonal immune challenges.
- Pair with Immuno Comp when extra “oomph” is needed to fight off acute infections.
Immuno Comp for Immune Support
- Proactive support for everyday immune system strength and resiliency.
- Excellent for acute immune challenges.
Immuno Comp Ingredient Details
-
Immuno Comp has very high levels of Thiamine (B1) to promote strong immune support and help maintain the body's ability to withstand stressful conditions.
-
It contains key immune support nutrients including Vitamins A, C, and E, Echinacea, Zinc and 14 other ingredients.
-
It contains Thymus to support the thymus gland, the specialized primary lymphoid organ of the immune system where T cells, critical to the immune system, mature.
-
Immuno Comp contains the amino acid Lysine for added immune support and a healthy, normal resistance to immune challenges.
Liposomal Vitamin C and Immune Support
- The Bi-lipid layer delivery system protects Vitamin C from breakdown in the digestive tract.
- This highly absorbable form delivers more vitamin C to the tissues and cells.
- The liposomal form of vitamin C eliminates nutrient destruction from free-radicals, enzymes, digestive juices and other absorption barriers.
- Take daily for powerful long term immune support.
- Take higher doses for acute infections.
Glycophagen and the Immune System
- Glycophagen supports immune issues originating from the GI tract.
- 70% of the immune system is in your gut, which makes the gut a first line defense against foreign substances.
- Take daily for long term general immunity.
Glycophagen Ingredient Details
- Glycophagen contains probiotics such as Lactobacillus and Bifido Bacterium, which help re-establish beneficial gut bacteria by reducing pathogenic bacteria and their toxins.
- Glycophagen contains prebiotics such as Mannanoligosaccharides, Fructooligosaccharides and Arabinogalactan, which serve as food for the beneficial bacteria in the gut. These bacteria support and balance digestive health, acid base balance, detoxification and gut related immune function.
- Arabinogalactan, isolated from the bark of the Larch tree, is an immune modulating form of fiber with positive benefits on digestive function. It has well documented prebiotic effects on probiotic organisms by acting as a food supply to friendly intestinal bacteria. Like the well-known fructooligosaccharides (FOS), Arabinogalactan is considered a prebiotic.
- Combining Arabinogalactan with Prebiotics and Probiotics provides potent support for the immune system at the site of the gut lymphatic ducts, and can help repair gut tissue, re-inoculate good microflora and replace the needed enzymes for proper GI balance.
- BioActive Whey is a specific fraction of whey protein isolate that supports immune function and detoxification.
- Beta Glucan is a yeast extract that supports immune function, specifically supports NK (natural killer) cell activity, and nutritionally activates the immune response through the macrophage immune cells.
- N-Acetyl Cysteine is an amino acid that supports immune function, detoxification and the management of excessive free radicals from immune oxidative stress.
- L-Glutamine is an amino acid that supports healthy gut function by supporting the structural integrity of the gut cells.
