Cold & Flu Defense
Nature's Powerful Defense System
Occasionally, we need a
good cold or flu to stimulate the body's cleansing processes.
Maybe there is a good reason for us to get a
cold or flu every once in a while. While we admit it is no fun to be laid up
in bed, aching, feverish and nauseous, your body might actually be doing
something that is terrific for your long-term health. One line of thought
posits that when we become feverish our body is actually doing much more than
simply vanquishing a single pathogen but actually cleansing the tissues of
many pathogens and even cancer cells. Thus, an occasional cold or flu is your
body's natural cleansing and detoxifying response. When we take antibiotics or
prevent this process altogether, we may actually be weakening our health by
not allowing the body to go through this cleansing.
Supporting the Cold & Flu Healing
Process
"We understand that rather than slowing down this very natural
process-that, in this case, the best 'defense' is never to attack the
pathogenic invaders, but instead to provide your immune system with the most
powerful whole food nutrient concentrates that nature has to offer,"
notes Garden of Life founder Jordan Rubin, N.M.D., C.N.C. This is the
philosophy that led to creation of Cold & Flu Defense™ from Garden of
Life, of Jupiter, Florida. "The key is to assist the body as it goes
through a very useful and necessary process. Cold & Flu Defense purifies
the blood and increases circulation; promotes sweating and reduces fever; and
supports immune functions critical to this process. In such cases, we don't
necessarily want to 'normalize' the immune system response but rather we want
to see it operating at high intensity so that its manifold immune cells
perform a thorough housecleaning."
The unique herbal, root and bark concentrates
in Cold & Flu Defense contain powerful immune building compounds that have
the ability not only to neutralize pathogens, but to also boost immune
function.
Each caplet supplies the following herbs
(organically grown) in therapeutic amounts:
In addition, the herbs in Cold and Flu Defense
are predigested (fermented) with a proprietary natural process called Poten-Zyme™
that creates and liberates valuable medicinal compounds, greatly enhancing
bio-availability and absorption, a necessary food processing step lost to modern
society but even more important during times of illness and weakness.
Prescription
for Healthy Cold & Flu Healing
We think of an occasional bout with colds or flu as a time to rest, relax and
heal. As soon as you are feeling better the world will be waiting for you and
you will be grateful for your return to health. In the meantime, support your
body's processes so that it can do what it needs to do to detoxify and cleanse
your system.
Dosage-Because we believe that in an immune-compromised condition such as
during colds or flu, when your body needs a potent jumpstart, it is important
that you saturate your system for a full seven-day period to ensure adequate
healing time, and to regenerate and strengthen your whole body immune response.
To that end, we suggest three caplets three times per day on an empty stomach
for maximum absorption. If however you are a sensitive individual whose body is
more fragile, we then suggest that you try taking Cold & Flu Defense with
your meals.
