Relief - Flu, Cold and Virus Protection

I M M U N E *

The world is an exceedingly hostile place. Everywhere we turn we are constantly bombarded by microbes, germs, viruses, environmental and chemical assaults. We survive because Nature has provided us with an Immune System that guards and protects us in this daily battle. But sometimes it is not enough and when this system is impaired, we become ill. Nature has also provided us with ways to stimulate and fortify our Immune Systems. The proper use of these natural nutriceuticals can reduce the number of occurences as well as their length and severity,

Vitamin C is probably the most recognized nutritional substance in the world. It has a beneficial role in so many biological functions that it is virtually impossible to enumerate them. It has been clinically linked to immune response, viral infections, collagen formation, skin integrity, cellular and antioxidant protection and numerous degenerative conditions involving everything from joints to eyes.

Bioflavonoids. While many companies have declared that they were the firs to introduce these potent nutriceuticals, a quick glance at a VM catalogue from the 1940's will show that VM pioneered their inclusion in formulas decades before most of these companies even existed. We were the first to recognize not only their importance but their synergistic relationship with Vitamin C especially as it applied to circulatory health.

When using high amounts of Vitamin C maximum uptake is obtained by decelerating the release over a period of time to allow receptors to absorb the Vitamin C. These receptors are located in a specific area of the digestiive tract at the beginning of the small intestine. Ingested nutrients pass this point about four hours after ingestion. All Vitamin C must be available in this time frame. Thus time release mechanisms of 8 or 12 hours simply waste half or two thirds of the Vitamin C. All of VM decelerated release products ALWAYS attain full release within the body's proscribed limits.

For almost 40 years Vitamin D has been neglected and ignored. Recent research is linking increases in a number of serious health problems to Vitamin D deficiencies. Termed a vitamin, it is more accurately a hormone, activating over 70 receptor sites, essential for innumerable metabolic functions.

Besides its most recognized role in osteoporosis and calcium metabolism, the lack of Vitamin D is directly linked with higher incidences of dangerous viral infections, especially influenza. Vitamin D is essential for proper thyroid and parathyroid function and conditions affecting those systems are now under careful study.

It is now generally agreed that current recommended levels and daily intake are woefully inadequate. Minimal exposure to sunlight and the universal use of UV sun blockers has left us Vitamin D deficient.

	30 minutes of sun exposure naturally creates 20,000 IU of Vitamin D, an indication of your body's normal demand.
	Dietary intake of Vitamin D is very limited, often less than 400 IU per day.
	2D+ for increased resistance to viral exposure, depression, osteoporosis, decreased thyroid and parathyroid function.
