My Favorite Immune Support Products
Sick and tired of being sick and tired?
Let me tell ya something…
Lately, I have ne-ver gotten so many DM's asking for sick / cold / flu / ill remedies.
Either you're sick, your babies are sick, or you know someone who's recently been down with these mystery illnesses.
I'm coming in hot with my favorite tools for combating illness.
These are the products I personally have stocked in my medicine cabinet for these unexpected moments of feeling blah.
You never know when sickness will strike so I recommend you stock up! Here are my faves:
Astragalus
Olive Leaf
Essential C Complex
On Guard
Vitamin D
NAC
Colostrum
Oscillococcinum
These are my heavy hitters when I need extra immune support! But let me tell you a little more about each product and specifically how it can support your immune system:
Astragalus
A powerful adaptogen known for its ability to support the immune system by boosting the production of white blood cells, which help fight off infections. It also helps your body adapt to stress and has anti-inflammatory properties.
Olive Leaf
This one is a go-to for its antiviral and antibacterial properties. Olive leaf helps protect the body from illness by supporting the immune system and fighting off harmful microbes. It's also great for reducing inflammation.
Oscillococcinum
This homeopathic remedy is widely known for its ability to reduce flu-like symptoms, such as chills, fever, and body aches. It's a great natural alternative to use at the first sign of feeling under the weather.
I prefer to get both of these products through Supreme Nutrition. Spoiler: I actually love all of their products! It's a super great brand for single herb supplements. You can shop Supreme Nutrition and Boiron for Oscillococcinum below!
Essential C Complex
Vitamin C is essential for immune function, and this one from PaleoValley is particularly potent because it contains a combination of organic, whole food sources like acerola cherry, camu camu, and rose hips. This blend helps to improve absorption and offers long-lasting support for your immune system.
On Guard
A blend of essential oils that includes clove, cinnamon, and wild orange, On Guard is known for its powerful antibacterial and antiviral properties. It helps support your immune defenses and can be used to disinfect surfaces or even to boost your immune system internally.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D is crucial for activating your immune response. It plays a key role in reducing inflammation and enhancing your body's ability to fight infections. Especially important during the colder months when sun exposure is limited.
NAC (N-Acetyl Cysteine)
A potent antioxidant that helps your body produce glutathione, a powerful compound that supports detoxification and immune function. NAC is also known for helping to break down mucus in the respiratory system, making it a great support during colds and flu.
Obviously I shop these through my own supplement brand, Female Formulations! When creating my own supplement line, I knew I wanted to include super high-quality immune support. It just so happens that NAC also has hormonal and fertility benefits, too.
Cowboy Colostrum
If you have a dairy intolerance, this isn't the best product for you! However, if you can tolerate dairy well, colostrum is rich in antibodies and growth factors, colostrum is your immune system's first line of defense. It’s fantastic for enhancing your immune function, supporting gut health, and even promoting recovery after illness.
I really hope none of us have to use these products but like I said, I've seen so many of you in my DM's saying that you've caught the bug and didn't have any immune support products on hand. Although we don't anticipate getting sick, again, we never know when it'll strike! Stock up your medicine cabinet with these high quality products!
