Let's Talk Germs
Spring is here, and like most people, we’re so excited about the warmer weather. But one thing we are not excited about is sickness. YUCK. Whether it’s cold and flu season or the common cold any time of year, being sick gets in the way of family plans, training, sports, work—it’s really like an unwelcome guest at the holiday party.
You might be wondering how you can get ahead of the germs and stay on track to hit your health and wellness goals. We know how important it is to supplement your immune system to give your body the performance boost it needs. So now is definitely the time to stock up on your supplements, essential oils, tea, and local honey. One supplement you should consider adding to your regimen is Previnex Immune Health PLUS®.
One of the unique things about this product is that it uses a blend of medicinal mushrooms—maitake, shiitake, and reishi—to support your immune system and help ward off the harmful germs. It may seem strange to think of mushrooms as medicine instead of something you have to sneak into your kids’ food, but they’re actually incredibly beneficial to your immune system—especially during flu season! So, what makes these little fun guys (get it—fungi) so great? First of all, they’re rich with beta glucans, which help prime your immune cells to respond to nasty little invaders that make you sick. Each of these mushrooms have specific benefits, so let’s break it down:
Maitake Mushrooms
These mushrooms help you maintain a healthy blood pressure and support overall immune function. Historically, this mushroom is called the Dancing Mushroom and has been used to support the spleen. They’re chock-full of beta glucans and polysaccharides, which have been linked to healthy cell growth. Maitake mushrooms are also rich in antioxidants, vitamins B and C, amino acids, and more—lots of the good stuff your body needs in the colder months to take up arms against those nasty germs!
Shiitake Mushrooms
The primary benefit of Shiitake mushrooms is to support your cardiovascular health. They also support liver function, overall immunity, and maintain cholesterol—not to mention some studies have shown they can protect against cancer. They’re loaded with B-vitamins that help modulate blood sugar and support a healthy inflammation response, reducing inflammation altogether. Basically, they’re little powerhouses! During the Ming Dynasty in China, Shiitake mushrooms were called “elixir of life” because of their healing properties. These guys are full of the good stuff you need to have a healthy heart and immune system!
Reishi Mushrooms
These little guys are known to benefit your sleep! Taken over time, they can also support your overall immune function. Not to mention their ability to support a calm mind, decrease restlessness and reduce occasional stress. They support lung health, respiratory health, and balanced blood sugar levels. Basically, Reishi Mushrooms are little powerhouses that can help ward off flu season yuckiness.
