Spring Health Supplements
Spring Health
Spring is finally here and with it comes the usual ailments. As the weather gets lighter and the buds start budding it’s a beautiful time of year to enjoy. The last thing you want is to have a turn of the season cold,cough or the start of hayfever. Immune boosting herbs like echinacea and olive leaf are popular choices to help support the body’s defences. Increasing Vitamin C intake by eating plenty of berries, citrus fruit, and green vegetables and the supplementation of a quality Vitamin C such as BioCare may help the body ward off illness. Vitamin C is also known as ascorbic acid and is a water-soluble, antioxidant vitamin that plays a role in more than 300 bodily functions. It is essential to help support health and wellness and requires daily replenishment. Unfortunately, human beings – unlike most other animals – cannot manufacture vitamin C. Nor can they store vitamin C to any appreciable amount. Instead, the kidneys, acting as regulators, excrete vitamin C causing the need for regular replenishment. In addition, vitamin C is destroyed during food preparation. Vitamin C’s primary function is to help maintain collagen, a protein necessary for forming skin, ligaments, bones and teeth and for helping to maintain the strength of blood vessel walls. High levels of vitamin C are also essential for the metabolism of white blood cells, which are critical components of the immune system. In addition, vitamin C plays an important role in the absorption of iron, which is necessary for the formation of red blood cells and in the utilization of folic acid, one of the B-complex vitamins. Bioflavonoids work together with vitamin C to build strong capillaries and serve as antioxidants and as anti-inflammatory agents.

The mineral Zinc is essential to immune function and can be found in eggs, fish, pumpkin & sunflower seeds, legumes and mushrooms. Eating plenty of garlic ( yummy hummus) helps to stimulate the immune system and is great for heart health too!
Elderberry liquid is a delicious tasting tonic that has plenty of Vitamin C and antioxidant activity. It’s well known for helping reduce the length of flu viruses and very effective at mopping up coughs. Sambucol is a big hit with both big and small kids and now new Gel Caps are available too.

Hayfever suffering is on the rise with more and more people complaining of runny nose, itchy eyes and volatile sneezing. Quercetin is a natural anti-histamine and may be effective at reducing hayfever symptoms. Quercetin normally has Bromelain with it which is an enzyme from pineapple and works as a natural painkiller, great for hayfever headaches and sinus pain. For many people taking Quercetin early, to ensure it gets into the system works as a preventative measure alongside eating a teaspoon of local honey each day.
Eating wholesome and nutritious foods provides the platform for good health. Regular exercise, plenty of good quality water and herbal beverages will enhance wellness. Supplementing the diet with proper vitamins, minerals and herbs from reputable producers may help to further enhance the bodys’ health.
