Nowadays there seem to be constant fluctuations in the normalcy of our world.

I’d like to say “don’t worry about it,” but I know it’s still affecting everyone to some degree.

My concern is that this emotional rollercoaster may cause a lot of stress, which can have a direct effect on your immune system.

Here’s how:

When you become stressed, your body releases the stress hormone corticosteroid, which reduces the number of lymphocytes (white blood cells) in your bloodstream.

We have 2 types of lymphocytes:

B cells that produce antibodies which are released into the fluid surrounding the body’s cells to destroy the invading viruses and bacteria.

And T cells. If the invader gets inside a cell, these (T cells) lock on to the infected cell, multiply, and destroy it.

During the winter, when illness becomes more common, you want to ensure that both those cells are working as hard and efficiently as possible.

Excessive stress can cause other problems too:

  • It can trigger emotional imbalances,
  • Cause unrestful sleep,
  • Lessen your appetite,
  • And disrupt the balance of your Three Treasures

In life, having a strong, concrete foundation is key to growth and building yourself up. Although your foundation is at risk of becoming damaged with a weakened immune system.

However, there are steps you can take to help defend yourself.

One key ingredient in a healthy immune system is reducing excessive stress:

  • Take some time away from the internet and the news cycle
  • Read a book, or make time to enjoy a personal hobby
  • Play a game with your family.

Additionally, if you need some extra support, we’re here to help.

We have a special formula that was created with the specific goal of protecting and preserving your Three Treasures – the Great Guardian!

The potency of this product comes from the harmonious blend of many superior tonic herbs, including Reishi, Schisandra, Astragalus, and Gynostemma.

Each of these ingredients helps to maintain your internal balance, keep your emotions uplifted, and nourish the strength of your immune system.

In fact, a variety of studies over the years have demonstrated these benefits!

Here’s what we know:

Reishi has the potential to modulate the genes in white blood cells, which are critical parts of your immune system. (1)

Reasearch suggests that Gynostemma extracts can support the activation of B-cells, cytokines, and T-cells to encourage ones immune response (2)

Astragalus roots contain active compounds which may help strengthen the immune system and also potentially reduce inflammation. (3)

If there’s one thing that will never change, it’s the stability and strength of a sturdy foundation.
