Uses For Aller-Essentials
Immune Response: In a randomized double blind trial
involving 75 individuals, Tinospora cordifolia provided
significant support for a healthy immune response by
maintaining normal nasal function as well as healthy
neutrophil and eiosinophil activity. Beta-1,3/1,6-glucan,
a natural polysaccharide extracted from the cell wall
of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, has demonstrated the
potential to support overall immunity and to maintain
healthy cytokine balance. A randomized double blind,
placebo-controlled trial involving apple polyphenols
reveals support for maintaining a healthy nasal lining
and nasal function. Quercetin, hesperidin and vitamin C
provide additional support for stabilizing mast cells
and maintaining healthy histamine production. Nettle
leaf offers a history of clinical and traditional use for
maintaining healthy immune response in response to
environmental triggers.*
