In recent weeks, we’ve all come to realize the importance of a strong immune system. As I’ve stated in recent COVID-related articles, building our immune strength requires nutrient-dense food, a healthy dose of sunlight, adequate rest, sufficient exercise and good hydration. And for many of us, it also means enhancing our already healthy lifestyle with professional grade supplements. But how do we know which supplements our bodies need, what brands offer the most bioavailable nutrients, and where to purchase them while practicing social distancing measures.

Because of the increased need my clients have for the best quality products, I’ve added a second electronic dispensary store to my website, drsusanfox.com. Here you can purchase practitioner-grade products from WholeScripts, a family-owned nutraceutical company owned by XYMOGEN, an American independent health sciences company that has provided exclusive professional formulas to licensed practitioners for over a quarter century, and introduced numerous innovations to the functional medicine community.

The following products are not available in stores, however, as my client, you can purchase these on my site and have them delivered straight to your door.

Perhaps you know what your body needs, or perhaps you would feel more comfortable having a conversation with me before you buy. If you have specific questions related to your health, please schedule a 20-minute video consult through my scheduling system HERE. It’s easy to do, and we can have face-time communication to ensure you get only what you need.

 

What I Use

In addition to the traditional immunity boosting regiment of Vitamin C, Vitamin D, and Zinc, I’ve recently added Beta Glucans, provided in a product called ImmunotiX 250. Without overstimulating the immune system, beta glucans act as a first line of defense against stressors and invaders. They prime the body to be aware of viral threats by tagging immune cells and neutralizing pathogens before they replicate. Beta glucans stay alert in your system for 48 hours, so a dose every other day is sufficient.

I’ve also added anti-viral herbs, provided in the proprietary product Viragraphis, a formula especially helpful in supporting cytokine balance and respiratory function.  These work best when taken at first sign of infection, so having a bottle on hand is a good idea.

With regard to the “cytokine storm” implicated in the severe viral infection we are now battling, I offer the following information:  While glutathione, short-chain fatty acids, vitamins A and D are all key supplements in helping to modulate the immune system, which controls the release of cytokines, turmeric, as found in Apex Energetics Turmero, and resveratrol, as found in Apex Energetics Resvero,  are the key ingredients that have been shown to down regulate the self-amplifying loop of NF-KappaB which contributes to the cytokine storm. These products need to be prescribed by me for your first order, so please let me know if you’ll like me to place that order for you.

Again, if you need help with setting up your accounts to purchase these products, let me know.  I can be reached at susan@drsusanfox.com.
