If there’s one thing that the global health crisis has taught us all, it’s that you can’t always control the external factors that pose a threat to your health and wellness. What you can control is how well you look after your immune system to keep it in optimal shape.
It’s incredible to think that there’s an entire army of natural defense mechanisms in your body constantly working to protect you from illness-causing germs, and easy to assume that the immune system can be left to care for itself. But, as we’ll look at here, taking a few simple steps to protect and support your immune system can make a big difference in how well it’s able to protect and support you.
Your Body’s Best Fighters Can Still Be Vulnerable
The last time you got a papercut, you probably weren’t worried about developing a severe infection. Likewise, your most recent case of the common cold most likely didn’t warrant a trip to the hospital. Small, daily threats like these that the immune cells patrolling our bodies help us easily parry really put into perspective just how crucial immunity is to overall health, and how easy it is to take for granted.
When immune cells are weakened or damaged, so too is their ability to protect us. Suddenly, the viruses, bacteria, and toxins assaulting us daily gain an upper-hand, with health and wellness suffering as a result.
For all the health superpowers that immune cells possess, they also have a major kryptonite. Research in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition shows that immune cells are particularly sensitive to disruptions caused by free radicals naturally present in the body and in the environment.1 What sounds like a complex threat can actually be easily defended with one amazing ingredient.
The Power of Antioxidants
The best weapon in the fight against immune cell damaging free radicals is a powerful antioxidant. Aronia Berry, grown in the fertile soils of America’s breadbasket, has been called the “Heartland Miracle” because of the incredible amount of protective compounds it contains.
Aronia doesn’t just rank among the most antioxidant rich superfoods on Earth; it contains the most powerful types of antioxidants needed to prevent oxidative damage caused by free radicals. One USDA study found that Aronia had the greatest concentration of anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins of all berries tested, while a second European study highlighted its remarkable polyphenol content.2,3
Simply put, Aronia is an indispensable ally for anybody looking to defend their immune system so it can better defend them. Before free radicals damage your immune cells, neutralize them with a powerful antioxidant.
Don’t Just Defend Immune Cells, Nourish Them
One of the most important elements of the immune system is the body’s supply of Natural Killer (NK) Cells. A pretty intimidating name, but well earned - NK Cells are the first line of defense against tumor cells and viral infections. Their importance is clearly exemplified by the fact that individuals with an NK deficiency are more susceptible to viral infection.4
Echinacea root has long been a popular herbal remedy for combatting and reducing the duration of the common cold, even outselling super-ingredients like turmeric. While that’s interesting on it’s own, what’s truly fascinating is the scientific reasoning behind why Echinacea is a powerful immunity booster.
It’s nourishing effects on the immune system are twofold. Research shows that Echinacea not only blocks the effects of prostaglandins - harmful compounds that can weaken NK Cells - it also stimulates the production of more NK Cells within the body.5 When it comes to strengthening natural defenses, there’s not much more you could ask for than a natural ingredient that delivers a one-two punch: both fortifying and multiplying your body’s frontline defenders.
A Different Kind of “Core Strength”
It might seem counterintuitive to think that bacteria are actually a key piece of a strong, responsive immune system. And yet, science continues to shed light on the crucial role that the good bacteria in your gut play in overall immunity. “A huge proportion of your immune system is actually in your GI tract,” says Dan Peterson, assistant professor of pathology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine - a surprising insight into an easy to overlook aspect of immune support.6
Pomegranate is hugely popular in health circles because of the nutrients and powerful plant compounds it’s packed with, but research also shows that pomegranate can help stimulate healthy gut flora in the digestive tract.7 Researchers at Johns Hopkins are fascinated by the link between good gut bacteria and immunity, highlighting that “certain cells in the lining of the gut spend their lives excreting massive quantities of antibodies into the gut”.6
A superfood like pomegranate doesn’t just address immune strength at its core - it also contains antiviral, antibacterial vitamins like C and E, and is packed with three times more antioxidants than green tea and red wine. 8
