September 22nd officially marked the beginning of autumn. Across the country, temperatures are cooling, the days are getting shorter, the nights are getting longer, the sun is out less often, and the air is brisk. Given these factors and the coming winter, now is the time to take extra precautionary measures to ensure that one’s immune system is getting all the attention and health boosts possible!
A Look at the Statistics – Illnesses and Ailments by Season
It’s not just folklore that the common cold and various forms of the flu are more likely to occur during a specific time of the year. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, flu season begins in October, increases dramatically in December, peaks in February, and declines in March.
With October just around the corner and that month being the official start of the cold and flu season, people should make a dedicated effort towards supporting their immune health right now.
Vitamins D3 & K2 – Supplements for Enhancing Your Body’s Immune Response
Vitamin D3 has important roles above and beyond boosting bone health. Without getting into technical jargon, vitamin D3 is taken in by different immune system cells, which allows those cells to function better. Vitamin D3 is also absorbed by illness-fighting cells, and those cells are further strengthened as a result. This is particularly beneficial for people with autoimmune diseases. Quoting one research paper on the subject:
- “As immune cells in autoimmune diseases are responsive to the ameliorative effects of vitamin D, the beneficial effects of supplementing vitamin D deficient individuals with autoimmune disease may extend beyond the effects on bone and calcium homeostasis.”
Vitamin K2 is also immensely beneficial to the immune system. Last year, Dutch researchers found a correlation between COVID-19 positive patients and patients with deficiencies in vitamin K2. This is a far more recent finding. One could safely surmise that ensuring one is not deficient in vitamin K2 would help improve their immune function, especially during cold and flu season.
Immune Solution’s Vitamin D3 & K2 in Pumpkin Seed and MCT Oils are the perfect blend of all-natural vitamins D3 & K2, a potent boost to immune health right when you need it most.
Liposomal Vitamin C – The Most Potent Boost of Healthful Vitamin C Possible
It’s not just an old wive’s tale that vitamin C is good for immune health. There are peer-reviewed scientific studies that show how taking vitamin C while ill with a common cold can not only help reduce the severity of illness symptoms, but taking vitamin C while one is ill can even reduce the number of days they are sick.
The benefits of vitamin C are almost too many to count concisely. One scientific paper summarized the benefits as such:
- “Vitamin C is essential for the development and maintenance of connective tissues. It plays an important role in bone formation, wound healing, and the maintenance of healthy gums. Vitamin C plays an important role in a number of metabolic functions. It is an antioxidant that protects the body from free radical damage. It is used as therapeutic agent in many diseases and disorders. Vitamin C protects the immune system, reduces the severity of allergic reactions, and helps to fight off infections.”
While any vitamin C supplement is better than none, the problem with most vitamin C supplements is that they simply are not potent enough. That’s why our experts at Immune Solution created a proprietary vitamin C supplement called Liposomal Vitamin C. It’s believed to be about 8-10 times more effective than IV vitamin C, which itself is already far more potent than tablet or capsule vitamin C. Not only can this product help improve immune function during the cold-weather season, but it also has a host of other benefits. Click on over to the Liposomal Vitamin C page to learn more.

Acquiring Knowledge + Taking Responsibility = A Healthier, Happier You!
Creating a healthy lifestyle does not just happen overnight, and it’s not just something that people can “do.” Being healthy means more than just “doing” all of the right things, like eating right, getting enough sleep, and exercising. Being healthy means acquiring knowledge and then making the personal commitment to implementing that newfound knowledge into one’s day-to-day life.
First, one has to learn how to be healthy. Then it becomes a matter of implementing day-to-day health habits into one’s life.
At Immune Solution, our goal isn’t just to provide our customers with top-quality health products, natural supplements, vitamins, and essential nutrients and superfoods. We also seek to help educate and inform the public on matters of health and wellness.
With education, information, and the best health supplements at the forefront of our business model, we believe that life is just better when you’re healthy, fit, and living in physical comfort, mental peace, and engaging in the raw life force that comes from healthy living. Please give us a call at our office at (727) 768-4688, or send us an email to sales@immunesolution.com if you have questions or would like to request more information.
