Boost Your Body’s Defense All-Year Round with Immune Support

It’s almost New Year and it’s once again time to write your New Year’s resolutions. Can you remember which ones you were able to follow and which ones remained resolutions? In any case, it wouldn’t hurt to include the unfulfilled 2009 resolutions again for 2010, especially those that are related to improving your health.

Unfortunately, it’s so easy to fall off the healthy living wagon. Sugar and processed foods can be so tempting, and a less than optimal diet tastes better. Sleep can be taken for granted. Stressors are lurking in every corner. Opportunities to exercise may be few and far between.

These, among other factors, all play a part in weakening your immune system, your body’s natural defense against disease. So what can you do to boost your immunity?

Eat right, get enough exercise and sleep and stay away from stress – these things are all easier said than done. While there are no shortcuts to good health, it pays to have a “friend” who’s there to support you while you’re slowly working your way to your ultimate goal of healthy living.

Dr. Joseph Mercola introduces this new friend, one of the most important and powerful natural health supplements created in recent times: Immune Support.

Immune Support: 10 Powerful Agents in a Single Supplement

Dr. Mercola’s Immune Support helps boost your immune system by combining the health benefits of 10 natural and organic ingredients in one convenient and power-packed capsule.
         1. Boneset Powder – an herb widely used by Native Americans for its ability
             to help your body sweat, support respiration and form white blood corpuscles
         2. Elder Flower Extract – the Elder plant’s berries and flowers are rich in
             vitamin C and a number of flavonoids like anthocyanins and quercetin
         3. Olive Leaf Extract – helps contain viral infection and stimulate cells to
             ingest harmful microorganisms and foreign matter in the body
         4. Oregano Oil – helps fight skin infections and digestive problems, reduce
             pain and inflammation, enhance joint and muscle mobility, and improve
             respiratory health
         5. Peppermint Powder – helps retard the growth of bacteria and fungi, and
             encourages sweating
         6. Propolis Gum – helps stimulate your immune system to release substances
             that protect against normal cell deterioration
         7. Vitamin B16 or DMG – helps detoxify your body and enhance your
             cardiovascular and muscular systems
         8. Vitamin C from Organic Acerola Extract – the Acerola berry is the richest
             source of natural vitamin C or ascorbic acid in the world
         9. Vitamin D3 – is the most potent type of vitamin D, and is the same vitamin D
             produces when sunlight strikes your exposed skin
         10. Yarrow – an herb which helps encourage perspiration, increase blood
             circulation, and enhances the waste removal process in your body

Taking an Immune Support supplement saves you money and time because you don’t have to go to your local supermarket or a natural health store to find these 10 different preparations. It’s impossible to have a perfect immune system; your body’s defenses will get tested from time to time. It pays to have a backup plan.
