- Used in Herbal Medicine to help maintain a healthy immune system.
- Helps to relieve the symptoms and shorten the duration of upper respiratory tract infections.
- Provides antioxidants.
Vitoli® IMMUNITY is recommended for the prevention or for the onset of cold or flu symptoms. Prevention should be considered in the Spring & Fall seasons and may be extended for the Winter period for those at higher risk, or experiencing many episodes of infection. Prevention can also be applied during in the risk of infectious outbreaks. Regarding symptoms, it is recommended to use Vitoli® IMMUNITY for a period of 14 days when you experience the first signs of a cold or flu.
The overall condition of the immune system can be considered as a marker of biological age and an indicator of longevity (Ponnappan and Ponnappan, 2011). As people age, the oxidative level increases, which is harmful to its proper functioning. The immune system becomes less efficient and the levels of inflammation increase, making people more susceptible to infections and less receptive to vaccination (Ponnappan and Ponnappan 2011). Zinc and vitamin D3 are important nutritional factors for the immune system as we age (Prietl et al., 2013; Haase and Rink, 2009).
- Astragalus extracts contain polysaccharides and cycloartane triterpene glycosides responsible for biological activity (Ren et al., 2013). Modulation of the immune system comes mainly from polysaccharides (Liu et al., 2010). They stimulate T cells (CD4 and CD8) and reduce inflammation (NFkB, IL-1β and TNF-α) (Roxas and Jurenka, 2007).
- Echinacea extracts can be effective, but several analyses have shown poor quality of some marketed products. The compounds found in the different species, as well as in different parts of the plant, are not all equivalent (Barnes et al., 2005).
- A recent meta-analysis (2015) of 2,458 patients concluded that echinacea is effective in reducing the risk of recurrent infections and complications. This effect could be attributed to the modulation of the immune system, antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects. These effects would be particularly beneficial for individuals at risk (Schapowal et al., 2015).
Provitol®, Olive Extract (Olea europaea, fruit)
The health benefits of olive oil are mainly attributable to its polyphenols (Ghanbari et al., 2012) and more particularly to their inhibitory effects of the metabolic pathways of aging (Menendez et al., 2013). The formulation of the Provitol® Complex (2 capsules) is equivalent to 100% of the required hydroxytyrosol dose for the permitted health claim by EFSA in Europe.
Astragalus Root Extract
Astragalus is a Chinese legume plant whose root is widely used to support the immune system. It contains a large number of active molecules and its modulating properties of the immune system come mainly from its polysaccharides.
Echinacea Root Extract
Echinacea is a plant native to North America. The different species contain different molecules. It is a plant well known for its effects on the immune system and one of the best-selling plants worldwide.
Vitamin D3 and Zinc
Essential for many biological processes, vitamin D3 and zinc are particularly important for the proper functioning of the immune system as we age.
Non-Medicinal Ingredients
Magnesium stearate,
Microcrystalline cellulose.
A non-medicinal ingredient would be considered as any substance added to a natural health product to confer the desired consistency or form on the medicinal ingredients. It is therefore a filler, facilitating the capsulation process. They do not influence the health benefits of the product.
