Summit Nutritionals - Cold and Flu Support

SUPPORT

This formula was developed to assist you just when you need it the most. The unique combination of ingredients in this product may actually help to reduce the severity and duration of a cold! It may be wise to take this nutritional support product during the cold and flu season, when you are likely to be exposed to others who are ill.

Echinacea is expected to be a part of any cold / flu formula as a strong immune system booster, and it is a part of this one. Yet, Echinacea alone is not enough. With the onslaught of colds and flu that exist and even seem to grow every year, this product is an important part of your regimen. That is why we introduced such potent herbs as Andrographis, Elderberry, Astralagus and Chinese Skullcap.

Swedish studies show that Andrographis is effective in reducing the duration and severity of the flu. It has also been shown to be a strong anti-viral and anti-bacterial herb. Elderberry has been studied extensively and has demonstrated strong, anti-viral effects. Astralagus is a potent herb that helps the body's immune system gear up to fight and defend against invaders. Last but not least, this sophisticated formula has the Chinese Skullcap Root extract. Not only is this a potent anti-inflammatory, it is also a strong anti-viral, anti-microbial, and anti-fungal herb. Scientists at Rutgers University and the University of Utah stated that it was one of the strongest anti-virals against rhinovirus (the virus that causes the common cold) that they have ever tested.
