Herbs to boost immune system

Your immune system is the keystone to optimal health.

Our immune system is constantly under siege from toxins, processed foods, stress, EMF’s, infections and more. This causes the immune system to progressively weaken, leaving you completely exposed.

Along with regular exercise, eating organic fruits and veggies, and cleansing toxins from the body, one of the best ways to restore the immune system is with herbs.

Below are the best remedies to help build up your immune system.

Medicinal Mushrooms

When it comes to healing the immune system, mushrooms are superstars. They have compounds that ease inflammation, balance the immune system, and even help fight infection. Only medicinal mushrooms like shiitake, chaga, turkey tail, tremella, maitake, and cordyceps will work.

Echinacea

Echinacea can support the immune system by activating innate immune cells—the body’s first line of defense against infection.

CBD Oil

Evidence suggests that the CBD Oil found in hemp can stimulate what’s called the endocannibinoid system (ECS). Among its countless other tasks in the body, the ECS controls how the immune system behaves.

Elderberry

Elderberry is also rich in quercetin, an antioxidant with anti-inflammatory properties that helps to block compounds involved in allergies. It will also help to normalize the production of cytokines.

Adaptogen Herbs

Stress can weaken your immune system. When you’re subjected to stress, the hormone corticosteroid is released, actively suppressing the immune system and making it more likely you’ll get sick.

Learnhow to effectively manage stress levels is the first thing you can do but also using ashwagandha, eleuthero, holy basil, and rhodiola rosea help the body respond to stress.

Olive Leaf Extract

My favorite as its antioxidant, anti viral, anti inflammatory.
