Supradyn IMMUN 15 effervescent tablets

Especially in the cold season, our immune system is challenged around the clock by changing temperatures, professional or private stress and the climate in closed rooms. A sufficient supply of micronutrients helps to positively support our immune system during this time.

Supradyn® IMMUN was specifically developed to support the immune system. With vitamins C, D and zinc, it contains micronutrients that particularly contribute to a well-functioning immune system. Supradyn® IMMUN are available as effervescent tablets for adults and as fruity gummies for children aged 4 and over.

• With vitamin C, D and zinc
• With high doses of vitamin C
• For adults
• Only 1 effervescent tablet daily
• Suitable for diabetics

Our immune system

The immune system is a complex system that protects our body against external invaders and foreign substances. A distinction is made between the innate, non-specific immune defense and the acquired, specific immune defense.

Furthermore, one can also speak of three lines of defense: The first two are the physical barriers (skin and mucous membranes) and the non-specific cell reaction (e.g. immune cells). These belong to the innate, non-specific immune system. The third line of defense is the specific, acquired immune defense (e.g. antibodies). You can find out more about the function of the immune system here.

The micronutrients vitamin C, vitamin D and zinc contained in Supradyn® IMMUN complement each other ideally in their function of supporting the immune system.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is an important vitamin that is known to have a great positive influence on the immune system. In fact, it is also involved in numerous metabolic processes that are of great importance for the immune system. It is also an important antioxidant and is needed, for example, to build connective tissue (collagen formation). It therefore helps to keep the skin and mucous membranes intact and thus supports the immune system's first line of defense.

Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin and therefore cannot be stored in large quantities in the body. Regular, controlled intake is therefore particularly important.

Vitamin D

In addition to vitamin C, vitamin D is also known for its importance for the immune system. It plays an important role in many defense reactions and, above all, influences various immune cells. For example, it improves the mobility of certain immune cells and also their phagocytic properties. In this way, it supports the function and activity of these important defense cells and thus the second line of defense of the immune system.

The body can produce vitamin D through the skin itself. However, this requires sufficient sunlight. In the winter months in particular, there is usually not enough of it. The intensity of the sun's radiation is not sufficient during this time to produce enough vitamin D. 40% of the European population has a vitamin D deficiency*.

Zink

Zinc is one of the vital trace elements and is involved in numerous metabolic processes. It contributes to protection against oxidative stress and is important for an intact immune system. Zinc is also important for cells that divide quickly. This also includes immune cells. It is also involved in the production of antibodies and thereby supports the third line of defense of the immune system.
