Our September 2019 Specials

Are your seasonal allergies back in full force? Let’s face it. If your sinuses are acting up, you just can’t function like you normally do. Fall weather is lovely, however it can present a few challenges. Warm temperatures and high winds at the tail-end of Summer can kick up pollen more than usual.

Weed allergens are also at an all-time high during this time. The most common are ragweed, sagebrush, pigweed, and tumbleweed among others. Mold is another major factor. Fall leaves are pretty and fun for kids to rake up and jump into. But when it rains, water collects in the leaf piles and mold will grow.

Don’t let the season of pumpkin spice lattes set you back. Here are some natural supplements that can help neutralize the effects that environmental allergens can have on you as part of your integrative medicine in Springfield Missouri.

These Natural Supplements Are 10% Off This Month

D-Hist

Natural D-Hist is a targeted blend of flavonoids, antioxidants, proteolytic enzymes and botanicals designed to provide comprehensive support for seasonal challenges caused by common environmental allergens. Natural D- Hist includes quercetin, a powerful flavonoid, to support healthy histamine levels.

Bromelain enhances the absorption of quercetin and supports mucosal tissue health. Stinging nettles leaf balance hyper-immune response and N-acetyl cysteine clear the airways by promoting normal viscosity of mucus. This powerful combination actively promotes healthy nasal and sinus passages for individuals with elevated histamine and respiratory irritation.

40 or 120 count. Also available in convenient blister packs.

Sinatrol

Optimal sinus health requires adequate mucus flow and clearance throughout the nasal cavities. The sinuses are hollow cavities branching from the nasal passages. While the nasal passages are often colonized with bacteria, the sinuses are typically sterile under healthy conditions.

The sinuses and nasal passages are lined with soft tissue, called mucosa, that feature thin, hair-like projections called cilia. Specialized cells of the mucosal tissue, known as goblet cells, secrete a thin layer of mucus to absorb microbes and allergens, such as dust, dirt, pollen, and mold, inhaled through the nose. Working together, cilia “beat” to move mucus and waste out of the sinuses and nasal passages.

Upper respiratory challenges may impair this process, known as mucociliary clearance, and contribute to fluid entrapment within the sinus cavities. Sinatrol contains a synergistic blend of nutrients and botanical ingredients to quickly boost immune response, decrease mucus build-up and increase mucociliary clearance during upper respiratory challenges.

Sinatrol is a unique nutrient and botanical formulation providing effective support for upper respiratory challenges. Standardized botanical extracts and nutrients support sinus health by reducing the viscosity of mucus, clearing airway passages, and promoting nasal microbial and inflammatory balance. Also available in convenient blister packs.

N-Acetyl Cysteine

N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) is an amino acid that boosts antioxidant function and is commonly used as an agent to help clear sinus and airway congestion caused by mucus overproduction. NAC is a source of the conditionally essential amino acid L-cysteine and is a precursor to the tripeptide glutathione, an essential intracellular antioxidant, and therefore supports antioxidant and cellular detoxification pathways in the body.

In addition, a growing body of research also highlights the role of NAC in supporting neuropsychiatric health. Each capsule of N-Acetyl Cysteine provides 500 mg of this versatile amino acid.

N-acetyl cysteine is one of the few antioxidants found to raise glutathione levels. Glutathione is an important antioxidant used in many different metabolic processes within the body. Maintaining adequate levels is important to maintaining the health of the respiratory, hepatic and immune systems.

It is also important in supporting antioxidant protection of lipids and proteins and supporting the normal response to inflammation.1-7 Glutathione is not well absorbed by the body when taken orally, so it can be difficult to sustain adequate glutathione levels.

NAC has been shown to significantly increase glutathione levels. NAC is also capable of reducing the viscosity of mucous and is also used to support respiratory and pulmonary health.

InflammaCORE

InflammaCORE is an advanced nutritional formula built to address immune challenges, maintain normal inflammatory balance and strengthen gastrointestinal barrier function. InflammaCORE is an all-natural, fructose-free formula featuring 19 g of easy-to-digest brown rice protein per serving and soothing, flax-based fiber. In addition, InflammaCORE provides high amounts of L-glutamine and glycine, amino acids crucial for intestinal reinforcement and mucosal cell regeneration. InflammaCORE is available in vanilla chai, chocolate mint, and strawberry flavors.

Inflammation is a natural part of the body’s immune response, a cascade triggered to protect the body and maintain normal tissue repair. Acute inflammation is the body’s initial response to harmful stimuli in which plasma and immune cells are relocated from the blood into injured tissues. This movement is followed by a cascade of biochemical events which advance the normal inflammatory response. When inflammation is prolonged, it leads to a progressive shift in the type of cells present at the site of inflammation and is characterized by simultaneous destruction and healing of the tissue. It is essential to maintain normal inflammatory balance to achieve optimal health.

IgG Protect Powder

IgG Protect Powder is a highly concentrated (40%) immunoglobulin G (IgG) formula that provides essential nutrition for improved immune health. The immunoglobulin and growth factors in colostrum extract can promote passive immunity, or the transfer of immunity from one organism to another.1

IgG Protect Powder’s pure and high-concentration formula provides improved immune modulation and strengthens the gut-immune barrier. Consistency in potency and purity of colostrum extracts is a primary concern for clinicians; advanced filtration and purification techniques make IgG Protect a superior clinical tool. IgG Protect Powder provides 2,000 mg of IgG and 4 g of protein per serving.

Traditionally, colostrum is considered the “first food” of newborns because it is easily digestible and enhances the immune system. More recently, colostrum has been shown to regulate the immune system and provide vital growth and healing factors.2 An optimally functioning immune system prevents unwanted toxins and molecules from disturbing the body’s natural homeostasis.

Colostrum naturally includes immune factors, amino acids, nucleotides and growth factors which provide several benefits to human immune health by functioning against microorganisms. There are five main immunoglobulins, but the most common is IgG, which accounts for 75-80% of all serum antibodies in the body. IgG plays a major role in immune system function, as it defends the body against foreign substances.
