Immune Support: Save Money While You Prepare for Winter

With shorter days and cold wet weather on the way, this is a good time to prepare for the cold and flu season. At Evergreen Nutrition we have something for everyone – even your dog.

Many people turn to VITAMIN C when the weather turns cold. Viral and bacterial infections increase our need for this antioxidant vitamin which can help prevent, reduce the severity of, and speed recovery from cold, flu and herpes (simplex and zoster) viruses as well as inhibit Streptococcus pneumoniae. Evergreen has vitamin C to suit everyone. In addition to tablets and capsules, we have pure ascorbic acid and buffered C powders, 100% food-sourced, sustained-release, liquid, and chewables. (Be good to your teeth and rinse after chewing vitamin C.)

ECHINACEA is beneficial to the immune and lymphatic systems, increasing properdin which activates our immune defenses and helps destroy foreign cells. Again, we have several forms to choose from: capsules, liquid extracts and flavored alcohol-free glycerites for kids. It is also a component of many immune formulas.

Most people at this latitude could use additional VITAMIN D from autumn through spring. It can help prevent colds and flu because it enhances immune function by influencing a variety of immune cells. From low-dose baby drops to 5000 IU doses, there is a wide selection of the sunshine vitamin at Evergreen.

Gaia Black ElderberryELDERBERRY is a potent antioxidant that activates the immune system, prevents viruses from replicating, and can decrease the severity and duration of flu symptoms. In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, SAMBUCOL, an elderberry syrup, was effective against 10 different strains of flu virus (in vitro). Elderberry is available in capsules, powder, liquid extract, sugar-free liquid concentrate, as well as tasty syrups and convenient lozenges. BLACK ELDERBERRY liquid-filled capsules from Gaia will be ON SALE in November for $16.89 and on our ONE-DAY SALES it will be reduced further to $15.00 – quite a savings since they are regularly $22.50.

The medicinal mushrooms CORDYCEPS (Cordyceps sinensis) and MAITAKE (Grifola frondosa) have been studied extensively and found to have immune enhancing benefits. They are antibacterial, antiviral, and are especially effective for respiratory ailments. We also have numerous mushroom blends including New Chapter’s BREATHE and IMMUNITY and Fungi Perfecti’s STAMETS 7 and MYCOMMUNITY. Eclectic Institute’s MUSHROOM IMMUNE ESPRESSO is a powder that makes a delicious broth when mixed with hot water. ALL MEDICINAL MUSHROOMS are ON SALE for 20% OFF in November.              

Garden of Life introduced a new line which includes three immune formulas containing Vitamin Code food-chelated vitamin C, vitamin D, zinc and selenium. IMMUNE BALANCE DAILY adds in a variety of mushrooms and herbs, I.B. RAPID has andrographis, and I.B. RAPID LOZENGES contain Bacillus coagulans and S. salivarius. The entire new line will continue ON SALE through the end of December                          

Boiron’s OSCILLOCOCCINUM is a fast-acting homeopathic remedy with proven effectiveness in reducing the duration and severity of flu-like symptoms (fever, chills, headache, that rundown achy feeling). It is a natural product without side effects or contraindications and it is convenient to take since it dissolves quickly under the tongue without water. Be sure to keep plenty of Oscillo on hand since it works best when taken as soon as symptoms occur. We have it in 3-, 6-, 12- and 18-dose boxes as well as 3- and 6-dose CHILDREN’S OSCILLOCOCCINUM. Children’s Oscillo will be ON SALE in November for 20% OFF and regular Oscillo at our special EVERY DAY LOW PRICE (EDLP) at least through December. Oscillo has a five-year shelf life so take advantage of our great deals and stock up now.

Don’t forget your “best friend.” We have several new products from Actipet including their chewable immune formula DOGGY DEFENSE which contains colostrum, echinacea and bioflavonoid complex. The entire Actipet line is 10% OFF through the end of October.

And, finally, good news for you bargain hunters. SAVE EVEN MORE with manufacturers’ DOLLARS-OFF COUPONS for NEW CHAPTER’s mushrooms and multies; Oscillo and other BOIRON products; and GARDEN OF LIFE’s new line including the above-mentioned immune products. And, as always, CLUB MEMBERS get an ADDITIONAL DISCOUNT, even on sale items and when coupons are used. So it’s a great time to prepare for winter at Evergreen Nutrition.
