10 Immune System Killers To Avoid
The best way to avoid getting a virus (or to combat one you already have) is to boost your immune system.
Everywhere I turn there are news stories of the rising death toll from the coronavirus. 100 people. 500 people. Now, over 2,000 dead worldwide with over 74,000 people infected—including hundreds of doctors.
Cruise ships are being quarantined. Entire cities shut down. Airplanes grounded. Scary stuff!
They just cancelled schools in our district, just this morning.
While it’s most widespread in China, additional cases have been identified in a growing number of international locations, including the United States.
And although there’s no cure yet for this scary virus, which causes severe upper-respiratory tract illnesses, you may be wondering why some people “get” sick with the virus and others don’t.
Well, it really comes down to one thing…
The strength of your immune system.
And right here, in this article, I want to help your immune system in a big way!
But first off, did you know that 70% of your immune system in your digestive tract? It’s true.
And as you may know, the #1 priority of your immune system is DEFENSE.
Its job is to identify and protect your body from getting sick by fighting off “foreign invaders”, which actually enter your body constantly.
It’s hard to believe that every minute of every day there is a battle raging inside of your body between the cells of your immune system — the GOOD GUYS — and the BAD GUYS, such as viruses (like the cold, flu and coronavirus), allergens, toxic substances and other foreign invaders (like pathogenic bacteria, parasites and fungi).
The stronger and more supported your immune system is, the better able you are to remain healthy and protected.
However, there are many things in modern life today that can harm immunity and make people more prone to getting sick, such as:
- Improper hygiene (like not washing hands enough)
- Unhealthy diet, such as excess sugar and processed foods
- Excess alcohol
- Excess stress
- Insufficient sleep
- Environmental toxins (in the air, water, on food, etc.)
- Poor gut health
- Sitting too much / not exercising enough
- Not drinking good quality water and drinks
- Not eating immunity boosting foods
So, the key to a healthy immune system is limiting your exposure to foreign invaders… making healthy lifestyle choices… and supplementing with the most powerful nutrients — the “ammunition” — to best support your immune system so it can protect you against those foreign invaders.That, of course, begs the question…
What exactly is that best immune-supporting “ammunition” — the nutrients you’ll most want to supplement with to best protect you?
The answer… PROBIOTICS. (But only if you use the RIGHT kind.)
You see, over 70% of your immune system resides in your gut. And one of the most effective ways to rapidly support a healthy gut is by supplementing with a high-quality probiotic.
Not only do these “GOOD GUYS” help get your gut microbiome balanced, they also support a powerful immune system by helping reinforce gut barrier function… supporting a healthy inflammatory response… promoting immunomodulatory activity… and enhancing antimicrobial activity, which is a fancy scientific way of saying they fend off “BAD GUYS.”
Not surprisingly, multiple studies have shown that probiotics help prevent episodes of upper-respiratory tract infections.
Now, when it comes to supplementing with a high-quality probiotic, let me spare you both time and money.
Today, you don’t have to GUESS if you’re getting a premium probiotic, and you don’t have to spend hundreds and hundreds of dollars to best protect yourself.
I’d like to introduce you to BioTRUST’s Pro-X10™ — This premium probiotic is simply light years better than any product out there.
Why is that? Because with many brands, most of the probiotics are DEAD before they reach your gut. You see, probiotics are delicate, and they die easily if they are exposed to light, heat or an acidic environment.
Fact is, they’re either dead in the bottle (and you’re swallowing dead probiotics), or they die from the harsh gastric juices of your stomach.
Meanwhile, Pro-X10 features the revolutionary acid-resistant, microbe-protectant Micro-Encapsulation Technology.
Our proprietary Micro-Encapsulation Technology surrounds our probiotics and creates a natural barrier that protects them along their journey — like a professional bodyguard protects an A-list celebrity.
Science shows that Micro-Encapsulation Technology significantly improves the viability and delivery of live probiotics. In other words, you get far more living probiotics — the “GOOD GUYS” — right where you need them to help your immunity.
Fact is, our probiotics in Pro-X10 don’t die in the bottle or in the acidic environment of your digestive system. They get to where you need them most to protect and serve you.
What’s more, Pro-X10 contains six “SUPER STRAINS” of probiotics, including a unique blend of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium probiotics along with heat- and acid-resistant soil-based probiotics — all essential to powerfully support a robust immune system.
And using Pro-X10 is so simple. You just take two capsules a day and then take a deep, calming breath knowing that you’re supporting your immune system as best you can — and be sure to order enough for your family too.
