4 Immune Boosters for Cold & Flu Season
Now that we're officially in cold/flu season. What better timing than to share with you products I used to combat common colds. If you've been following me for years, especially on Snap Chat, a couple of times during the fall/winter months I was notorious for getting a cold, and I honestly just got tired of it. I quickly educated myself about products that could assist me with combating cold and flu season. Most of these products I've used for almost two years, and I always try to keep them on hand. I'm big on eating my fruits and veggies, so of course, I have plenty of oranges as well, in addition to drinking my warm lime or lemon water in the mornings, and when I have ginger on hand. I make warm ginger water as well. This year I plan on adding to my list. So make sure you stay tuned to my social media accounts. All of the items, I'm sharing below. I've taken as directed.
4 Immune Boosters for Cold & Flu Season
Kick-Ass Immune
Kick-Ass Immune is a product that I initially purchased for travel. I loved this product because it could be taken without water. They recently changed the packaging (not sure if they changed the formula) and it now has to be mixed with water which I'm a little disappointed about. I will say that this was my favorite out of all of the immune boosters, and it's really fast-acting.Herb Pharm Daily Immune Builder
Herb Pharm Daily Immune Builder is my second favorite. Love the size of the bottle, you could actually fit it in your pocket if needed. I typically keep this on hand with me. This has to be mixed with water. However, It's super easy to use, and it works.
Effer-C™ Elderberry Packets
I tried the Effer-C™ Elderberry Packets for the first time last year, and I was hooked. They come in Togo packets which is really handy to have on hand, and they're actually great for immune support and energy. I love the flavor of these packets, and they actually don't take that much time to mix.
Emergen-C
I started using the Emergen-C almost seven years ago. It's great to keep on hand, especially for the cold and flu season. What I love about this product is that you can pretty much find it at any of your favorite stores, and you only have to mix it with water.
Do you take any immune boosters?

I need to try these out. I do not have time to be sick and I hate when others in my family get sick. I do not deal with vomit well.
ReplyDeleteAlways looking for ways to not get sick or at least make it short lived if possible. These alls sound very helpful and will check them out closer.
ReplyDeleteoh wow i def needed this today bc my kids are sick- def will have to take a look at getting a few for my own home! thanks!
ReplyDeletewe do take immune boosters. Right now we are using Sovereign Silver everyday and Copaiba as well
ReplyDeleteThese sound like some great products for people to look into through the cold and flu season. It can, after all be utterly miserable when you are feeling poorly.
ReplyDeleteWe have relied on elderberry products to help strengthen our immune systems over the last few years and I'm very satisfied with the results. You can never be too careful when it comes to germs.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if it is an immune booster, but I've had good luck with Cold Ease in the past.
ReplyDeleteElderberry is so popular for immune boosting these days. I haven't heard of the Effer-C elderberry before though.
ReplyDeleteWe recently started using elderberry. I love it. Anything that keeps away the germs gets an A from this super mom!
ReplyDeleteI do elderberry syrup! So over Christmas, my sons and husband who got the flu shot, got the flu. During that time when I knew they were sick and when I had a seven year old coughing in my face a lot of the time, I would take about 5 teaspoons of the stuff! I felt remnants of being sick shortly after my husband got sick, so I upped the anty on the elderberry and only had one day of fatigue and a slight runny nose! I am now a believer in that stuff!!
ReplyDeleteI hate getting sick so I would try them all. I love the Kick Ass name!
ReplyDeleteMy husband loves Emergen-C. I drink ginger tea during this time of the year and it keeps me away from getting sick.
ReplyDeleteI don't take any immune boosters for moment. But thank you sharing this helpful information.
ReplyDeleteIt's obvious I need to do more research on different immune boosters. I only knew about one of them on this list. I will use whatever I can to defend myself from sickness this winter.
ReplyDeleteGreat post! Yes it's that time of year when everyone gets sick. Thanks so much for the tips and boosters!
ReplyDeleteI don't actually take anything, but I'm sure I should. I've tried Emergen-C before and liked it. I need to pick some more of that up. I keep hearing about how great it is.
ReplyDeleteI take Emergen-C to stave off any chance of getting sick. I also take Vitamin C and Vitamin D. It's that season, always best to be proactive.
ReplyDeleteI have heard great things about Elderberry. I will look for the Emer-C packets. Thanks for the tip!
ReplyDeleteI take Energen_C but others I don't know I am going to check it out.
ReplyDeleteVery informative post that needed right now specially if you are with kids its so hard to get sick. Thanks for sharing.
