Achieving and maintaining

great health is all about honoring

our body and giving it what it needs to thrive.

Overview:

Maintaining a healthy immune system is one of the best things you can do to ward off disease, including infectious diseases such as colds and flu. What we eat and drink—in particular—but also

how well we take care of our body, mind, and spirit, including making time for exercise, rest, and play, connecting with others, spending time in nature, and handling stress, all factor into immune health.

The COVID-19 pandemic has shown us how important it is to attend to immune health; without it, we won’t be able to effectively weaken the action of pathogens in the body. Experts tell us that potentially 80% of us will be exposed to this virus. So it’s smart to be prepared. This is why Natural Longevity has created our Immune Health Kit. While the immune system remains somewhat of a mystery to scientists, we do know that it’s a complex, interconnected system that incorporates many organs and functions. That’s why we have provided a broad spectrum of support.

Building a strong immune system is within your control! The supplements in this kit provide an excellent foundation for immune health, but positive lifestyle choices are a must. Consuming a health-promoting diet, rich in fiber, is your No. 1 defense, as 70-80% of the body’s immune cells are found in the gut. Incorporate the following recommendations and you will quickly notice amazing improvements in your energy, sleep, mental clarity, and overall functioning.

Key Lifestyle Recommendations:• Eat an anti-inflammatory—mostly plant-based—Mediterranean diet. • Significantly reduce or eliminate saturated fats and oils from your diet, including vegetable oils.• Eat more fiber! • Drink lots of water, including some alkaline water in the morning. • Get enough sleep, and more when you need it.• Wash your hands frequently! • Disinfect your toothbrush regularly.• Exercise. • Consider intermittent fasting.• Stop smoking. • If you drink alcohol, limit your consumption.• Reduce stress. • Take good care of yourself (in the spiritual sense).

Natural Immune SupportTM

Natural Longevity’s Natural Immune SupportTM is an herbal formula designed to support healthy immune system function during cold and flu season, times of stress, and beyond. It contains herbs that support normal natural killer (NK) cell activity and the balance of cytokines, which are the regulatory proteins released by immune cells as part of a normal immune system response. Some of its significant botanicals include echinacea, astragalus, elderberry, and green tea that is standardized to a very high level of its key active component epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg), which increases the production of regulatory T cells—a type of white blood cell that protects the body from infections and cancer cells. It also contains an impressive combination of the immune-supportive mushrooms cordyceps, shiitake, maitake, and reishi—all of which are supremely beneficial to the immune system and in the treatment of various other illnesses from cancer to heart disease to depression.

Natural ZincTM

Zinc is a fundamental mineral that can be found in almost every cell of the human body. Its beneficial effects are extensive: healthy skin, proper growth and development, healthy

reproduction and metabolism, including healthy blood sugar levels, plus hearing and visual acuity. When it comes to immunity, zinc is

a powerhouse. It is known to play a central role in multiple aspects of the immune system, including skin structure and

gene regulation within lymphocytes (white blood cells). One thing is for sure: If you are deficient in zinc, you are

susceptible to a variety of pathogens.

Natural Longevity’s Natural ZincTM offers chelated minerals formulated for optimal absorption. These

minerals are combined with other nutrients such as vitamin B6 and taurine to

provide superior results.

Natural NACTM

N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine (NAC) is an amino acid and precursor to glutathione—the body’s most powerful antioxidant. NAC promotes optimal detoxification—which is key to immune function—and supports liver, lung, and brain health as well as muscle recovery. NAC’s support of immune health is critical: As an antioxidant, it neutralizes free radicals that cause cellular damage, which can lead to diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer’s, heart and lung disease, diabetes, and others linked to oxidative stress. Some researchers believe NAC may even contribute to longevity. NAC is such a powerful detoxifier that it is used in hospitals in the case of acetaminophen overdose and to protect and restore the body before and after exposure to certain chemicals, including radioactive dyes used during an MRI.

Natural Vitamin D CompleteTM

Vitamin D has several important functions: two of the most vital are regulating the absorption of the crucial minerals calcium and phosphorus and facilitating both aspects of immune system function—innate and adaptive immune responses. Innate immunity is the baseline immunity

present in the body while adaptive immunity is the protection created by the body in response to exposure to a foreign substance. More than half of all Americans—regardless of age—are low in vitamin D, so supplementation is essential. A deficiency in vitamin D is associated with increased autoimmunity as well as increased susceptibility to infection.

Natural Longevity’s Natural Vitamin D CompleteTM features 2000 IUs of vitamin D along with effective amounts of the other fat-soluble vitamins—A, E, and K. While there are many beneficial health attributes associated with vitamin D alone, it is extremely important to keep it in balance with these other vitamins. Research is emerging on the important synergistic interrelationships between these fat-soluble vitamins, which is why we’ve put them together here.

Natural Vitamin CTM

Vitamin C—a highly effective antioxidant—contributes to immune health by supporting various cellular functions of both the innate and adaptive immune systems. It protects the body’s cells against reactive oxygen species that are generated by immune cells to kill pathogens and it stimulates both the production and function of white blood cells including neutrophils,

which attack foreign bacteria and viruses. Supplementation with vitamin C appears to be able to both prevent and treat respiratory and systemic infections.

Natural Longevity’s Natural Vitamin CTM is rich in vitamin C and plant bioflavonoids, which are known for their immunoprotective properties, meaning they can guard the body against toxins and foreign substances. In addition to supporting healthy immune function, this symbiotic combination of nutrients has been used historically for applications such as maintaining healthy veins, capillaries, skin, hair, and nails by supporting normal collagen production and repair.

Natural GlutathioneTM

Glutathione (pronounced “gloot-a-thigh-own”) is produced inside every cell in the human body. Because glutathione is the single most protective antioxidant produced by the body, it is the most critical for staying

healthy, slowing the aging process, and preventing diseases including cancer, heart disease, dementia, and more. Glutathione is also necessary to treat everything from autism to Alzheimer’s disease. Sometimes referred to as the “Mother of all antioxidants,” it is most highly concentrated in hardworking organs, such as the pancreas, kidneys, and liver.

Glutathione is essential to immune function for two key reasons: It protects the body’s innate immune cells through its antioxidant mechanism, and it provides the optimal functioning of white blood cells and other cells of the immune system. It is also crucial to facilitating effective detoxification processes in the liver. Detoxification, which is necessary for strong immunity, helps remove harmful compounds that enter from the outside as well as those our bodies generate internally from normal, healthy metabolism.

Natural Longevity’s Natural GlutathioneTM is a unique form of glutathione that does not break down in the gastrointestinal tract, and, therefore,

reaches the cells intact. This makes it much more effective. Our special formula also includes N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) and vitamin B6, both of which are important for the production of glutathione.

Natural B ComplexTM

B-vitamins, which include eight different forms of vitamin B, play a vital role in maintaining good health and well-being throughout life. As the building blocks of a healthy body, B-vitamins have a direct impact on energy levels, brain function, and cell metabolism. Because B-vitamins unlock the potential of various enzymatic reactions in the body—and thus support healthy metabolism—their importance cannot be understated. Without adequate B vitamins, many of the body’s chemical processes become slow and inefficient. As it relates to immunity, the body uses vitamin B to recognize bacterial infections. Specifically, vitamin B6 helps the body make new red blood cells, which carry oxygen throughout the body. B6 is also vital to supporting biochemical reactions in the immune system.

B-vitamins become depleted for many reasons: Our modern refined diet is high in sugar, alcohol, and devitalized foods. Stress, many medications, and the aging process may also lower levels of vitamin B. This is why supplementation is critical. Natural Longevity’s Natural B ComplexTM is a combination of the eight vitamins which form the B-complex—Thiamin (B1), Riboflavin (B2), Niacin (B3), Pantothenic acid (B5), Pyridoxine HCl (B6), Biotin (B7), Folic Acid (B9), and Cyanocobalamin (B12). This very powerful B-vitamin combination formula supplies most of the B-vitamins in their coenzymated forms, so the body does not have to alter them before using them in biochemical reactions.
