When winter hits, everyone scrambles for the Corenza C, thinking they’re getting a helping hand. What they don’t realise is that its main ingredient is paracetamol! We prefer to take supplements that boost our natural immune systems, giving our body a long-term boost, as well as fighting off the nasty colds and flu that do the rounds this time of year.

What we propose for daily protection:

1 x Quercetin Complex daily
1 x Zinc Picolinate daily
2-4 x EsterVit C daily (Available as Super-Cee or Scorbi-Cee)
1 x Vitamin D3 1000iu
Optional: 1 x Selenium daily (100 or 200mcg)
Optional: 1 x Vitamin K2

When we begin to show symptoms:
We take the following for FIVE DAYS ONLY, then revert to the protective measures:

1 x Quercetin Complex 3 x a day
1 x D3 Premium 2 x a day
2 x Zinc Picolinate daily (don’t do this for more than 5 days)
4+ Ester C daily (or Scorbi-Cee 1 teaspoon, or Super-Cee 1 teaspoon)
1 x Bear Paw Garlic 1-3 x a day
1-2 x Olive Leaf Extract 3 x a day till feeling better

After 5 days, we revert to the protective measures.

We also have an Immune Pack available here or browse our shop for the full list of Immune Combos
