Immune Boosting Programs

Many Chinese tonic herbs have profound immune boosting characteristics. Frankly, any program of high quality Chinese tonic herbs will help to build the immune system so that your resistance is improved. This is, of course, of fundamental interest to those who wish to build radiant health, which is defined as "health beyond danger." Those who desire to specifically address their immune capacity have a great many wonderful options among the Chinese tonic herbs.  More information...

Immune Boosting Formulations

There are numerous formulations that improve immune functions. Taking a consistent program of Chinese tonic herbs will rarely fail to fortify immune functioning. Formulas like Supreme Protector, Protector 2000, Ron Teeguarden's Super Pill and Four Kings (100 Caps) $36.00 are all extremely potent and yet perfectly safe for every member of the family.

Discussion

In the Orient, the Chinese tonic herbs and herbal formulations are believed to strengthen the body and mind, enhance immunity, improve functioning of the various organs, relieve stress and generally improve well being and even to lengthen life if consumed regularly over a long period of time. It is imperative that the immuno-compromised individual realize that it is not enough to eliminate the virus and other microbes if health is to restored. The Jing must be protected and rebuilt, Qi-production must be encouraged and all functions of the body must be fortified and harmonized, even if the virus is otherwise eradicated. Tonic herbalists in America use the Chinese tonic herbs to enhance normal functions. The herbs used are very safe, having been used for thousands of years and their safety has been further verified by modern studies in Japan, China and elsewhere.

Take Reishi and Astragalus every day as a routine part of your health program. These two super-tonics are unmatched as immune potentiators. Dragonherbs uses the highest quality Reishi and Astragalus in the world to make its Reishi Capsules and Astragalus Capsules. Take both these herbs every day, and even more when you travel or are exposed to ill people and large crowds in closed rooms (such as packed subways, malls, concert halls and airplanes). I recommend at least 1500 mg. of each concentrated powder a day. You may take 3000 mg. a day of each, and you may double that when you need to. These are very safe herbs.

A primary formulation you should consider is Supreme Protector, which includes Reishi, Astragalus and Cordyceps. This is one Chinese tonic herbalism’s supreme combinations of immune boosting supertonic herbs. It extremely effective and absolutely safe.

Consider adding other specific tonic herbs that have been shown to have powerful immune potentiating activities. Cordyceps, Codonopsis, Gynostemma, Ginseng, Tibetan Rhodiola, Ant, Agaricus mushroom, Maitake mushroom, and others, have profound immune modulating activity which will help build the immune system. Remember, you do not want to wait to become ill and then have to take medicinal ("inferior") herbs like Goldenseal or Echinacea. That is too late. Each time you get sick, you are damaging your body and shortening your life (not to mention lost work and play days).

Protector 2000 is as potent an immune system protector as you can find. It contains the three strongest immune modulators known to Chinese herbalism, which is saying a lot. Agaricus mushroom is now known to be the most potent immune modulator in the world. Reishi spores are 7 times more potent as an immune system modulator than Reishi mushroom extract (and Reishi mushrooms are one of the strongest immune modulators in the world). Lycium polysaccharides have been demonstrated to have very potent immune potentiating action. This formula will build your immune system. Similar (but less potent) formulas based on Reishi spores are being sold in Hong Kong and Japan for over $500 for a month's supply.

Ron Teeguarden Super Pill is a blend of the extremely potent immune modulating herbs. This formula is also a potent adaptogenic formulation.

Ginseng and Astragalus Combination, Complete Ten Supertonic Formula, and Ginseng Nutritive Combination are classic formulations that have proven themselves as major immune strengthening formulas. They are widely used in clinical settings throughout Asia to build energy and fortify the immune system. Any one of these may be your first choice as a daily immune-boosting tonic formula. They are unbeatable at building the immune system back to optimum strength. These formulas are suitable for all individuals who wish to build and maintain their resistance. They are also primary formulas for those suffering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, HIV and other immune deficiency conditions. They may be safely used along with drugs, under a doctor’s supervision.

Immunity Booster is designed to boost immunity and build strong resistance. It may be used in conjunction with Supreme Protector. It contains eight of the most potent immune enhancing herbs in the Chinese tonic herbal repertoire. It is suitable for any one experiencing depressed immune responses or may be exposed to infectious situations.

Four Kings (100 Caps) $36.00 is a blend of the four great "longevity mushrooms" combined into one extraordinary elixir. All four herbs (Reishi, Agaricus, Cordyceps and Maitake) are known for their powerful tonic and protective benefits. These are the four most powerful immune stimulating mushrooms in the world, and certainly among the most powerful immune stimulating herbs. These mushrooms are all very excellent tonic herbs which protect the body and help the body to aggressively ward off invasion.

Minor Bupleurum Combination is frequently used to prevent relapses of colds and flus. It is used as an immuno-stimulant. It is used as a tonic by those with upper respiratory allergies and by those who are prone to sore throats. It is used as a tonic and preventive by those with upper respiratory allergies. It is also considered to be a major Liver tonic. Minor Bupleurum Formulation is one of the primary agents used in Japanese medicine for the treatment of chronic hepatitis. It has been found to be effective in the treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. In these and other disorders it has been shown to regulate the immune response in order to effect an optimum healing response. A slightly modified version is now widely used in HIV programs in Japan. It should be used along with major immune building herbs like Reishi, Astragalus and Cordyceps.
