Magnesium Glycinate 125.. a truly magical mineral

Dr. Shippy hand selected this unique combination of minerals, vitamins, and herbal formulas for a comprehensive blend of potent immune support at a cellular level. Magnesium helps facilitate over 300 chemical reactions in the body. It’s no wonder that magnesium supports cardiovascular health, muscles, nerves, bones, mood, brain health and metabolism. The truth is that most people are deficient in magnesium and would benefit from supplementation. They aren’t getting enough from their diet alone, mostly because soil quality has become increasingly depleted over the years (leading to a depleted food supply). And many have increased needs for magnesium because of toxin exposures or health issues Special formula. Magnesium glycinate and dimagnesium malate are both forms of magnesium that are well absorbed. Glycine (from glycinate) is a calming amino acid that supports brain health, digestion, joints and promotes sleep. Malic acid (from malate) supports energy metabolism and antioxidant systems in the body.

The many benefits of Zinc Glycinate...

Zinc is an essential amino acid and mineral that serves many important roles in the body. More than 300 enzymes depend on zinc for their normal activities in cellular metabolism.
Immune Protection - Zinc supplementation has been studied for years, with clinical focuses ranging from how it impacts incidence of infectious disease, growth, pneumonia, diarrhea and other illnesses. Zinc is also one the first supplements I recommend to help boost the immune system. Zinc’s role in supporting immune function includes regulating T lymphocytes, natural killer cells, CD4 cells, and interleukin. The body has no specialized system for storing zinc, so daily intake and absorption is essential. One of the greatest reasons for making sure you have sufficient Zinc – is helps maintain the structural integrity of your cell membranes. Zinc protects your cells from invaders, and oxidative damage. This is why zinc is such an important element in fighting disease. To check your levels of Zinc, consider ordering my do-it-yourself Nutrient Panel.
Sensory Role - Zinc also supports healthy vision, especially as we age. Zinc’s role in sensory perception extends not only to vision but also to normal taste and smell acuity. The endocrine system relies on adequate zinc status to assist in the regulation of insulin activity and the conversion of thyroxine (T4) to the active thyroid hormone triiodothyronine (T3).
Better Absorption - This formula combines 20 mg of Zinc with glycine for better absorption across the intestinal wall and into the bloodstream.

D3 5000...Vitamin D: not just for bone health.

Since it was discovered more than a century ago, vitamin D has been widely researched and found to play many important roles in the body. Vitamin D receptors are found on tissues in most organs in the body–having optimal levels supports the health of these organs. The heart, colon, prostate, and lungs all benefit from Vitamin D.
Vitamin D supports immune function - Studies show that vitamin D promotes the production of antibodies – which helps to strengthen the immune system. Lower vitamin D levels are also linked to an increased susceptibility to infection and higher levels may protect against auto-immune diseases.
Respiratory health - For many years, scientists and medical professionals have noted that respiratory illnesses are highest during the winter months, when the sun is less intense. A recent study suggests that there is an association between vitamin D deficiency and an increased risk of mycobacterial infections, respiratory viral infections and asthma.
Promotes positive mood and brain function - Just as vitamin D receptors reside in organs and tissues throughout the body, they also exist in the tissues of the brain, contributing to brain development and function. Once study found that high doses of vitamin D over the course of a year improved depression in subjects with low serum 25(OH)D levels.
Optimal levels of Vitamin D can help prevent or improve:

• Osteoporosis
• Hypertension
• Some forms of cancer
• Respiratory infections
• Auto-immune diseases
• Prostate, colon and heart health
• Infections/Immune health

Viramax... a powerful combination of key nutrients and botanical extracts.

Viramax boosts immune defenses by providing nutrients such as L-lysine vitamins A and C, pantothenic acid, B12, and zinc. Viramax includes the synergistic blend of botanical extracts black elderberry, astragalus, echinacea, and andrographis, all of which have been used traditionally for their clinically effective immune- modulating properties.
Our body’s immune system is a complex and dynamic defense system that comes to our rescue at the first sign of exposure to an outside invader. The dynamic nature of the immune system means that all factors that affect health need to be addressed in order for it to function at peak performance. The immune system is very sensitive to nutrient deficiencies.
While vitamin deficiencies can compromise the immune system, consuming immune enhancing nutrients and botanicals can support and strengthen your body’s immune response.
