Key Ingredients and their Functions

The PureDefense formula is based on nutrients and compounds with well-documented functions in the body, always within the regulatory framework of the EFSA:

• Vitamin C: contributes to the normal function of the immune system and protects cells from oxidative damage.
• Vitamin D: contributes to the normal function of the immune system and the absorption of calcium.
• Zinc: contributes to the normal function of the immune system and protects cells from oxidative stress.
• NAC (N-acetylcysteine): a precursor to glutathione, it helps maintain the body's antioxidant defenses and supports lung function.
• EpiCor: a yeast fermentate that stimulates the adaptive immune response, contributing to a balanced defense.
• Quercetin and Elderberry Extract: flavonoids with antioxidant properties that help modulate the immune response.

This combination of ingredients acts synergistically to offer comprehensive support for the immune and respiratory systems.

Benefits for the Immune and Respiratory Systems

The immune system is our first line of defense against external aggressions. PureDefense with NAC is formulated to:

• Strengthen innate and adaptive immunity: vitamins C, D, and zinc are essential for the activation of immune cells such as lymphocytes and macrophages.
• Support respiratory health: NAC helps maintain lung function by helping to thin secretions and protect lung tissue from oxidative stress.
• Provide antioxidant defense: flavonoids (quercetin, elderberry) and NAC reinforce the body's antioxidant system, neutralizing free radicals.
• Stimulate adaptive response: EpiCor promotes the production of immunoglobulins (IgA) and the activity of natural killer (NK) cells.

These benefits are based on the physiological role of nutrients, as recognized by the EFSA. They are not curative claims, but rather aim to support normal bodily functions.

How to Take PureDefense with NAC?

The recommended dose is 1 capsule per day, preferably with a meal to facilitate absorption. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. This supplement is indicated for adults who wish to strengthen their defenses, especially during periods of increased exposure to viruses or seasonal changes.

Important: Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced and varied diet. Maintaining a healthy diet and proper lifestyle habits is essential for overall well-being.
