Biomed is highlighting three different immune support formulas, each with its own unique benefits - now is the perfect time to strengthen and support the immune system of your patients.
Bio Boost - Immune Booster, Cold, Flu, Upper Respiratory
Bio Boost is a powerful homeopathic remedy that acts to increase the body's natural defenses against viral and bacterial infections.
It relieves symptoms of colds and is particularly useful for influenza, viral infections and recurrent infections of the respiratory system. Bio Boost also promotes lymphatic drainage. It works on the non-specific immune system, increases
the phagocytic function of leukocytes, stimulates granulopoiesis, and increases bactericidal activity of the blood cells.
Acute dosage recommendations at the onset of symptoms (or the feeling like one is getting sick) are 40 drops every four hours until signs of improvement. After symptoms improve or for prevention, take 20 drops three times daily.
Pleo Ut 'S' (Utilin 'S') – Immune Stimulation, Upper Respiratory, Lungs, Chronic Conditions
Pleo Ut 'S' (Utilin 'S') is a strong immune modulator and was historically used in pulmonary tuberculosis. It is used
for conditions of the respiratory tract and the lungs. Clinically, it has proven useful for pneumonia, chronic lung disease, extra pulmonary TB, autoimmune conditions, and chronic fever with debility and weakness. It works by raising the immune
system response capacity through non-specific stimulation and specifically stimulates lymphocytes.
Dosage recommendations are 5-10 drops once daily (either rubbed on skin or taken orally) for one month. Break for one month and repeat if necessary.
Vitamin D3 Drops – High Dose Vitamin D for Adaptive Immune Responses
Biomed's Vitamin D3 drops provide a quality high dose with 1000 IU per drop, with a natural lemon flavour in healthy MCT (Medium chain triglycerides) oil base. Vitamin D is essential for the immune system and deficiency is associated with increased autoimmunity and susceptibility to infection. It works by modulating the innate and adaptive immune responses in the body, through enabling production of over 200 antimicrobial peptides to fight off a wide range of bacterial and viral infections.
Dosage recommendations are 1 drop once per day during the winter/low sunlight season.
