Enhancing natural immunity
In autumn, the immune system can weaken due to changing weather, shorter daylight hours, and lower vitamin levels. To boost your immune defenses during this time, it's important to focus on nutrition, lifestyle, and additional protective measures. A balanced diet should include foods rich in vitamins C, D, and zinc. Probiotics are also essential for supporting gut health, which plays a critical role in immunity. Maintaining a regular sleep schedule and reducing stress through relaxation, meditation, or hobbies can also be beneficial. Regular moderate physical activity—like walking, yoga, or swimming—helps strengthen the body and stimulate the immune system. Additionally, taking immunomodulators and getting an annual flu vaccine are recommended.
Immunomodulators are biologically active substances that influence immune function. While they don't directly target pathogens, they can modify the immune response. These can be natural (plant-based) or synthetic, and either single-component or multi-component.
One product that supports natural immunity is Imunoprash, which contains: Emblica officinalis fruit (345 mg), Withania somnifera root (25 mg), Ceylon cinnamon bark (25 mg), Tinospora cordifolia stem (25 mg), Zingiber officinale rhizome (25 mg), Adhatoda vasica leaа (10 mg), Asparagus racemosus root (10 mg), Piper longum fruit (10 mg).
Emblica officinalis is rich in phenolic compounds with immunomodulatory activity, increasing the synthesis of gamma-interferon. It also has antipyretic, antimicrobial, adaptogenic, and antioxidant properties. Withania somnifera helps alleviate cold symptoms and nasal congestion while boosting physical endurance. The bioactive substances in Zingiber officinale and Piper longum reduce inflammation and have fever-reducing effects. Tinospora cordifolia and Asparagus racemosus also contribute anti-inflammatory benefits. Additionally, the antioxidant properties of Zingiber officinale, Asparagus racemosus, and Piper longum help neutralize free radicals.
Imunoprash is recommended for enhancing natural immunity, increasing resistance to infections, supporting overall health during cold seasons, and speeding up recovery after illnesses.
