Vitamin C An essential nutrient that has antioxidant properties. Helps to ward off pesky free radicals that cause colds, sniffles, and other unnecessary harm to the body. Your body does not make or store vitamin C, so eating a vitamin C rich diet or taking supplements is a necessity.
Vitamin D Essential for immune function. A deficiency in Vitamin D increases chances for infection, influenza and a number of other upper respiratory infections. The body gets a large amount of needed Vitamin D from sunlight; however, many need additional dietary sources of vitamin D to avoid deficiency.
Vitamin E Needed to boost the immune system to fight off invading bacteria and viruses. Vitamin E helps to widen the blood vessels to keep your blood moving.
Probiotics Good bacteria that keep the bad bacteria away. Probiotics are like a little army fighting away harmful bacteria and viruses; the more you have, the stronger the army.
Zinc Zinc affects how your cells respond to infections. In your immune system, Zinc activates enzymes that break down proteins in viruses and bacteria so they are less likely to spread. Taking Zinc during a cold or flu has shown to shorten the length of illness.
