The Benefits of Immune System Support

Maintaining a healthy immune system helps the body defend itself when faced with challenges. Inflammation is a key part of the immune response by reacting to stimuli and responding accordingly. Increased cytokine production is part of a normal inflammatory response. However, consistently elevated cytokines in the absence of a trigger can lead to an overactivated immune response.*

In cell culture studies, Immuplex® was shown to affect cytokine production, including IL-8, IL-10, TNFα, and IFNy, indicating its role in mediating T-lymphocyte inflammation.¹

How Immuplex^® Works to Support Your Immune System

Immuplex^® contains several micronutrients that function to support the body’s normal inflammatory response.* They also work synergistically in the immune response, and many are critical for antibody production.

These micronutrients include zinc, selenium, vitamin C and vitamin E. They exhibit antioxidant properties which may help support oxidant-mediated inflammation^2-3 and are essential players in a healthy immune system response.^4-6

Vitamins B₆, E, A, and C — also found in Immuplex^® — may support healthy white blood cell function. White blood cells are vital components of the immune system.^7,8
