Are you committing one of these common health crimes against your own body that can cost you the immunity you’re meant to have?
Stop right now!
Check out this list and see if you’re sabotaging your immune system in any of these ways… Only when you recognize these for the menace they are, will you be able to move forward to find your total solution.
Health Crime #1: Are you eating sugar and processed foods? Sugar decreases the function of your immune system almost immediately, and as you likely know, a strong immune system is a crucial key to keeping you healthy. Be aware that sugar is present in foods you may not suspect, like ketchup and fruit juice.
Health Crime #2: Do you fail to get enough rest each night? Just like it becomes harder for you to get your daily tasks done when you're tired, if your body is overly fatigued, your immune system could be functioning less-than-optimally.
Health Crime #3: Is stress running your life? We all face some stress every day, but excess stress could have serious adverse effects on your immune system.
Health Crime #4: Do you forget to exercise on a regular basis? A comprehensive exercise program is one of the BEST strategies to improve your immune response. When you exercise, you increase your circulation and your blood flow throughout your body. Your immune system has a better chance of performing at its best. I’ve written extensively about this on the site.
Health Crime #5: Do you ever leave the bathroom without washing your hands? Washing your hands is key to helping your immune system to function at its best. Be sure you don't use antibacterial soap for this -- antibacterial soaps are completely unnecessary, and they cause far more harm than good. Instead, identify a simple chemical-free soap that you can switch your family to.
Health Crime #6: Do you eat a “balanced” diet without understanding your nutritional type and how to eat for your personal needs? Just as it is obvious that you differ tremendously with respect to your outward physical appearance, you also have a unique biochemistry and genetics. You process foods and utilize nutrients in a way that is unique to you. Therefore, when you adopt a diet based on your specific "nutritional type," it will help you achieve optimum health.
Health Crime #7: Are you failing to look after your digestive tract? Scientific research shows 80% of your immune system actually lives right in your digestive tract. The best way to look after your digestive tract is via a high quality probiotic. It’s one of the few supplements I take every day. I even carry a bottle with me when I travel out of the country.
These are just a few of the mistakes you can make which can cause your immune system to function less than optimally. And I recommend you make every effort to make the changes above in order to prepare your body for winter because...
Your immune system is a complicated, interesting and amazing defense system which keeps you healthy and strong, protecting your body from environmental stressors.
However no matter what you do (or how closely you follow the plan above) sometimes your immune system gets tested. That’s why you also need a backup plan.
All great athletes know this. They train hard so their bodies stay healthy and they can perform at their best. But they still have physiotherapists and health professionals on call because they know sometimes life just throws a curve ball.
That’s why they always have a back-up strategy in place in case of emergency. So...
Listen, many “positive thinkers” might consider this approach negative. But I think it’s just being prudent, realistic and sensible. After all, no matter how confident Edmund Hillary was when he set off for Mount Everest, do you think he left without tools and backup supplies?
Of course not. And you shouldn’t be heading into this winter without a tool to “back up” your immune system either because you need...
Free radicals are unstable, destructive molecules that lack electrons. And while they form naturally as a result of normal metabolic processes like breathing, they can increase due to things like stress, poor diet and environmental stressors.
In a nutshell, free radicals have the ability to keep your immune system from functioning optimally, as you can see below...
Just like the knight above, a healthy |
Until when least expected, free radicals keep your immune system from functioning at top form. |
So what can you do to promote your immune system and protect against environmental stressors? Well, your body already produces antioxidants to neutralize free radicals. But as we grow older, the levels of antioxidants drop significantly. It is estimated that by age 40 your antioxidant level is at 50%, and by the age of 60 to 70, it is down to around 5% to 10%. So you need to get your hands on a healthy supply of antioxidants to "mop up" these scavenger molecules as soon as they start to pose a threat.*
Please don't make the mistake of sticking your head in the sand like an emu and hoping everything will be okay. Remember, there's a huge difference between earned and justifiable optimism and dangerous optimism.
And while you can do everything in your power to give your body the immune support it needs over the winter months, just like leading athletes, you also need to make sure you have a "Plan B" in case life throws you a curve ball.
In your heart, you know there must be a solution: an effective way to help protect your immunity when it gets tested.* But knowing what to take and who to buy it from (so you actually get what you pay for) can be an absolute nightmare.
I'm here to provide you with a better way: An astonishing breakthrough which my team and I have been working on.
I hope you're ready -- because I'm about to hand you THE ULTIMATE NO-NONSENSE TOOL for your body to boost your immune system.* And it's...
NOT zinc supplements
NOT echinacea
NOT synthetic isolated vitamin C
NOT designed to be taken every day, it's ONLY to be taken when you need extra immune support.
And for your convenience, it's all based on taking one little capsule...
And there's a few reasons for this. First off, for your convenience everything is included in the one capsule which means you can...
Boost your immune system in just a few seconds because 10 ingredients are power-packed into this concentrated little capsule.* |
Instead of taking ten different supplements and driving yourself crazy to give your immune system the boost it requires.* |
Now I'll tell you about the second reason in a minute. However before I do, there's some important groundwork we need to cover...
If you've been a subscriber to my newsletter over the years, you'll know my mission is to investigate and report on deceptive and fraudulent practices that can impact your health.
Now in the past I have been primarily focused on the FDA and the drug industry as the biggest offenders. But we also need to look at vitamin supplement manufacturers who shortcut the process and sacrifice your family's health in order to line their pockets with greater profits.
And you shouldn't doubt vitamin suppliers can be just as rotten as the cheats, crooks and liars in other industries. The reality is the supplement industry has grown in leaps and bounds over the last decade. And wherever there is money to be made, there is also a level of corruption.The reality is the same dark underbelly in the supplement industry as what you've seen in corporate America in recent years.
These massive rip-offs are just the tip of the iceberg. And they exist in every industry, including supplement manufacturers with slick marketing who are looking to get their hands on a bigger slice of the pie...
Remember, all vitamins and minerals are NOT the same. And you should not gamble with your health by just looking at the packaging, seeing that it contains a certain ingredient and taking their word for it.
That's a recipe for disaster. And I'm about to show you why by pointing out some of the biggest flaws in the manufacturing process most of the big supplement companies don't want you to know...
Flaw #1: Using synthetic alternatives to whole foods known as isolates
Let's say you purchase a bottle of vitamin C. Did you know that this vitamin bears little resemblance to the vitamins and minerals found in whole foods? The reality is isolating nutrients and delivering them in an unnatural way changes your body's response to them and can upset its natural balance, often causing more harm than good.
Flaw #2: The information they leave off the packaging
Let's face it. No vitamin manufacturer is going to outwardly tell you all their faults. And you're not going to read anything like this on their labels:
Our ingredients are NOT natural or organic
Our products have not been tested for purity and potency confirmation
Of course, nobody's going to tell you that, which is why finding a supplement you can trust can be an absolute minefield.
NSF GMP stands for National Science Foundation certified Good Manufacturing Process. And NSF International is an independent, not-for-profit organization that has gained a reputation as the most respected independent certification company in existence today.
In a nutshell, when manufacturers have this certification, it ensures that their practices have been audited. Part of the audit includes an inspection of whether the manufacturer processes its products in a manner that removes potential impurities.
So let me ask you a question...
After all, it's going to help them sell more products as it demonstrates a strict adherence to quality.
So why don't all supplement manufacturers get this certification? Quite simply, it's because there are very tough criteria. Often the certifiers will spend days at the supplement manufacturers plant and trawl through everything from their equipment to their books to ensure they are doing everything thoroughly.
And a company who has any question marks about their quality control, processes or facilities is unlikely to volunteer for this sort of scrutiny.
Listen, the reason I can tell you all of this is because in my early years of researching supplements I was fooled more times than I can remember with slick marketing from companies trying to get me to buy into their poorly made and damaged supplements.
The reality is it's hard to know who to trust. And when it comes to having a "plan B" for your immune system, it's certainly not the sort of thing you want to leave to chance.*
That's why, after years of research I have discovered ten totally natural ingredients that (when used together) can help you boost your immunity like never before.* I paid a certified research team a lot of money to research and mix these ingredients together and make them into one powerful, safe powder called Immune Support which can be taken in capsule form.* And this little capsule, in my opinion, is the best formula for boosting immunity in the entire world.*
My family has used it. My friends have used it. My staff has used it. And of course, I have used it myself.
The materials we use in Immune Support are the best we can buy.* And we have invested many hours into carefully choosing a highly qualified and certified manufacturer who is NSF GMP certified for your peace of mind.
Now how your vitamin was created is too important a matter to take for granted. Your family's health is on the line and there is a vital difference in the manufacturing of different supplements. What you really get for your money is determined by this process and the purity of the ingredients. Never forget that.
Now let's look at the two most important features of Immune Support: how it was made and the purity of the ingredients.*
I chose the manufacturer of Immune Support very carefully and personally visited their premises to ensure they offered the best manufacturing facility available.* I selected and insisted on the best quality ingredients available. And one of my partners observed every stage of the manufacturing process.
And of course, the company we use is NSF CGMP certified and has been through the requirements that are recognized worldwide for quality control and management of all aspects of the manufacturing environment from raw material control to finished product release as well as employee training, validation of testing equipment, product traceability and facility maintenance.
Quality control is a key focus with this product.
Phone calls were made across the country to ensure we could get our hands on the best products available. Multiple tests were conducted. We ensured the manufacturing facilities were in full compliance with local and international government standards. And I tested the product on myself, my family and my team before letting you know about it. What's more...
The ingredients in Immune Support are completely natural and the highest quality available.* Each dose is chock-full of essential vitamins, minerals and ever-important antioxidants. But the supremacy of Immune Support has been gained by the fact of its absolute purity -- all natural, has organic ingredients, is free of ALL major potential allergens, and is absolutely free of ANY additives.*
Purity is very rarely sold as a quality in supplements, because it is very expensive. And that is why it is so rare.
But what does it matter how good the ingredients are if they are not pure? If they are unhealthy, or not designed so your body can actually absorb them? If it actually ends up doing more harm than good?
Over the years, my team and I have developed a reputation for distributing some of the purest supplements in the world so you get all of the goodness without the harm. And as you can see from the ingredients listed below, Immune Support is no exception...*
These little fruits called acerola, are rich in vitamin C and were sourced from family owned farms in Brazil, thus transforming many rural lives as farmers move to a higher income status.
Organic Acerola Extract:
The Acerola berry comes from naturally grown trees found in parts of North and South America. It is like a bright red cherry, and mature fruits are soft and pleasant tasting.
The ingredient is USDA certified organic which means this ingredient isn't 'spiked' or altered with cheaper ingredients. And we have full traceability to the fact all the vitamin C you are receiving is naturally occurring from the fruit, which is all natural grown, on small family owned farms in Brazil (not the man made chemical compound of vitamin C otherwise known as ascorbic acid).
According to one study, Acerola contains 1,000 to 4,500 mg per 100g in the edible portion of the fruit as compared to 50mg per 100g which you'd find in peeled oranges. At least twenty times the amount.
It is by far the richest natural form of vitamin C on the planet.
And in order to ensure you get the maximum dosage of vitamin C, the Acerola fruit is picked when it's just peaked (the green to yellow stage) before it turns red and the content of vitamin C diminishes. There is a total of 400mg of acerola extract in each capsule providing you with more than six times the daily value of vitamin C.
An oregano bush from which the oregano oil is sourced.
Oregano Oil:
Ancient Greeks were the first to recognize oregano oil for its health-promoting qualities.*
It is known to promote a healthy immune response.* And has very high levels of carvacrol at 70%, an important component which has recently attracted much attention.
Note: We had to search all over the United States, make dozens of phone calls and have several in-depth conversations to find this very rare source of oregano oil.
Propolis Gum:
Propolis means 'before the city' or 'a defense' when you translate it to ancient Greek. Many, including myself, consider it one of the most potent and useful natural substances to acutely support your immune response.*
It is a plant resin collected by bees in and around the hive.
“Stimulate the immune system,” according to Professor S. Scheller, “and it is possible to control the aging process.* Propolis holds the key to this form of inner rejuvenation.”*
And has been used to help build immunity and resistance to stress, as well as supporting periodontal health and healthful aging.*
In fact, in the first double-blind placebo controlled study of this food, Professor S. Scheller, heading a team of four other doctors at the Institute of Microbiology at the Medical Academy in Sabrze-Rokitinea, Poland, discovered that propolis... directly stimulates the immune system to release substances that protect against normal cellular deterioration... and boosts your immune defense.*
How?
Because it contains phagocytes (white blood cells) that initiate the activity and cleansing action to protect your white blood cells.*
Many hospitals, clinics and universities throughout Europe are now testing propolis for its immunity benefits.* One report alone, recently translated by two doctors in America, shows that propolis has been successfully used in more than 70 different studies over the last 17 years.
But you shouldn't just get propolis from anywhere because there are a lot of people cheating the system. The propolis in Immune Support is a high end, concentrated propolis, whereas many companies are watering down and substituting the substance.*
Yarrow helps to encourage perspiration and assists in removing waste products.*
Yarrow:
Yarrow is widely employed in herbal practice, and works by dilating capillaries and increasing blood circulation.* It has long been used to encourage perspiration which can cool your body and assist in removing waste products through your sweat glands and kidneys.*
Its Latin name is Achillea mille folium and legend has it that yarrow was used by Achilles to stop the bleeding of his wounded men in the Trojan Wars.
The peppermint plant supports immune function and helps encourage sweating*
Peppermint Powder:
This magical little ingredient is used for far more reasons than its great flavor. It has a long history of use as a natural remedy and today, scientific research has confirmed the value of peppermint in supporting the immune function by retarding the growth of many fungi and bacteria.* The powder also contains menthone, menthyl esters, and menthyl acetate which helps encourage sweating.*
Boneset Powder:
This Native American remedy was adopted by early settlers to America for its ability to help your body sweat. It also supports respiratory health, and helps the formation of white blood corpuscles in your body and therefore kick starts your autoimmune system.*
Boneset has been widely used by Native Americans and in homeopathic remedies to treat all kinds of ailments.
DMG:
DMG (otherwise known as vitamin b16) is a metabolic enhancer in that it improves the function of your cardiovascular system, your immune system and your muscle performance.* It also helps to detoxify your body, protecting your cells from reactions caused by free radicals.
In 1981, important research on the effects of DMG was published in a prestigious health journal.
The elderflower has been used support health naturally for decades.* They are rich in vitamin C.
In a double blind study on 20 humans, they found a positive response as compared to controls, concluding that DMG enhanced the immune system.*
Elder Flower Extract:
The flowers and berries from the common elder are have been traditionally used in medicine to support health.* They are rich in vitamin C and a wide range of valuable flavinoids, including anthocyanins and quercetin, which many people attribute health promoting properties.*
What's more, they have been used as a tonic to boost immunity for years.* Recently, Israeli scientists tested a standardised extract of the berry on 40 people and found that it caused a significant improvement in immunity in approximately 90 percent of cases within two or three days, compared to six days for a control group.*
It is widely known to promote lung and bronchial tract health.*
Vitamin D3:
Vitamin D is the world's single most common vitamin deficiency and an estimated 85% of people in the US are vitamin D deficient. But you may not have been aware of the study from Winthrop University Hospital, Mineola, New York who published their findings in a peer-reviewed medical journal, stating that vitamin D3 stimulates "innate immunity."*
WARNING: If you're taking additional vitamin D3 supplements, you'll need to be careful. As you know, I do not recommend taking vitamin D3 for extended periods as it can have side effects. That’s why Immune Support is only designed to be consumed over periods of time of less than 10 days giving your immune system the short term support it needs.*
Olive Leaf Extract:
Derived from the leaves of the olive tree, recorded evidence of olive leaf's traditional use goes back thousands of years. Ancient Egyptians and Mediterranean cultures used it for a variety of health-promoting uses and it is widely known as a natural, non-toxic immune system builder.* It is a concentrated immune supporter without other known side effects.*
Ancient Egyptians and Mediterranean cultures have been using olive leaf to support health for centuries.*
You don't realize it but this product is coming to you as a result of many hours of painstaking research. In my opinion, there is simply no other immune support supplement that even comes close.
My team and I have a reputation for creating products that have the highest quality ingredients and most thorough quality control procedures. The millions of products we have sold online through the years has given us experience.
And that's why just like all of our products, Immune Support is produced according to the highest quality standards and best process that we know.*
Ask for an immune supporting supplement at your natural health food shop, and you'll get a supplement which suits the retailer. He may be more concerned about his profit than your health.
Ask for Immune Support and you'll get what I believe is the best immune supporting supplement available.*
Then see how my immune supporting supplement compares to some of the leading brands...*

One... you can do nothing, bury your head in the sand and hope for the best. But that's just going to keep your immune system from functioning at its best. Remember, your immune system is your body's bodyguard. Don't you think it's worth giving your personal bodyguard every advantage you can?*
Two... you can purchase all of these supplements separately from your local supermarket or health food shop. But you'll end up paying through the roof for it and going through the hassle and expense of taking ten different supplements...
Even if your immune system functions at its best* -- even if you send it back to us after it has expired -- you can return it at anytime and we'll give you every cent of your money back.
How can I make such a generous offer?
In a single word, confidence.
I can confidently assure you that there were quite literally thousands of hours of research performed by a large number of our staff and consultants before creating Immune Support.* I personally rejected many dozens of alternatives as I diligently sought out, in my opinion, the absolute best product to support your immune system.*
There's been a thorough analysis and testing process -- and absolutely no guesswork. Some of the smartest minds in the business have invested their time on creating this one formula. All materials were selected after careful analysis of the most immune supporting natural ingredients available. For instance, there are only two suppliers of propolis in the country. And we had to jump through hoops to get our hands on the rare quality of oregano oil we were looking for.
Quality and effectiveness has been the chief aim of Immune Support. Every ingredient has been combined exactly as it should be.* This process is what gives me confidence.
I'm also confident that if you like this product as much as I believe you will, you'll tell your friends about it, and you'll help them to take control of their health.
Of course, if you're not 100% satisfied, simply return "Immune Support" and you'll owe nothing, minus shipping and handling.*
I urge you: Get your 'PLAN B' in place before you need it, because when you need extra immune support, time is of the essence and you will be glad you have this extra help at your fingertips.*
