What to do if our immune system goes on strike in winter?
High susceptibility to infection, severe and long courses, constant relapses, as well as tiredness, lack of energy, recurring herpes infections, poor wound healing, etc. More and more people are causing problems.
The trio zinc, vitamin C and vitamin D3 (also in combination with vitamin K2 + vitamin A) is ideally suited to get our immune system going again.
These 3 biofactors can strengthen both the cellular and the humoral defense system, prevent infections and shorten and mitigate illness courses.
Older and weakened people, children and chronically ill people should therefore prevent. Not only a fresh food rich in vital substances can help, but also to take certain vitamins and minerals or trace elements, also as infusions.
🧬 Functions of zinc in the body:
Cofactor of over 3000 enzymes in the body -> important for immune defense, bones, muscles, mucous membranes, skin, hair, nails, wound healing and many other body functions
🥦 zinc in food:
Insights and red meat, shellfish, poultry and fish, dairy products and eggs, legumes, cereals, nuts, etc. in particular vegetarians, vegans and people with multiple intolerance cannot absorb enough zinc through diet.
💊 Dosage of zinc:
Preventive 10 - 25 mg preventive daily than zinc acetate, zincorotat, zinc sulfate or zinc gluconate. Short -term increase in the dose to 45 to 100 mg daily is advisable for an existing infection. Take not together with selenium and not for eating! Zinklutch tablets are particularly recommended for children, especially with existing viral infections, since they already work locally over the mucous membranes + strengthen the defense. The lollipops can be distributed throughout the day. Intravenous gifts are possible, also in combination with vitamin C.

🧬 Functions of vitamin C in the body:
Important for immune defense, antioxidants, antiviral effects, metabolism, connective tissue, bones, gums, cell protection and much more.
🥦 Vitamin C in food:
Especially in fruits, vegetables, herbs
💊 Dosage of vitamin C:
It is best to take 200 mg several times a day (depending on the tolerance, 1000-1500 mg with existing infection). The bioavailability is then 100 %, whereas higher individual doses over 200 mg can have up to 50 % loss.
With intravenous vitamin C therapy, on the other hand, you can quickly achieve higher plasma concentrations, particularly useful for severe viral infections such as covid (according to Uwe Gröber, pharmacist + micronutrient expert). The dosage would then be 7.5 to 30g depending on the body weight. In China, early vitamin C infusions on the intensive care units led to improvements in respiratory infections, shortened ventilation period and fewer accompanying complications such as sepsis.

In the end I don't want to forget, again on the Importance of vitamin D3 To point out! The German Nutrition Society still recommends only 800 i.E. daily. As a rule, this dose is far too low to compensate for a deficiency. In general, it is advantageous to know your vitamin D status to take the right dose every day. Please address the treating doctor / therapist to it and have a laboratory test done if necessary!
👉🏼 Here is a dosage recommendation by Mr. Pharmacist Uwe Gröber:
Preventive for young people, adults and seniors 40 - 60 IE vitamin D per kg body weight.
