Vitamin Depot Online.com has combined two of the finest all-natural medicinal extracts in an effective herbal product called Immunity Boost I, using only premium quality plant extracts. Echinacea Purpurea and Golden Seal Root have been carefully chosen as immuno-stimulants, which support the body's natural defenses against invasive infection and kill the germs that cause disease. The immune system is a complex one whose chief function is to identify and eliminate destructive foreign substances, such as harmful bacteria and viruses, etc., before they damage healthy cells and cause disease and illness. Since germs cause many disorders, strengthening the body's ability to fight against bacterial and/or viral infections will not only help repel disease, but also to recuperate more efficiently. The herbal supplements in Immunity Boost I act as natural antibiotics that not only destroy viruses and bacteria, which help to ward off simple colds and flu, but also stimulate the production of white blood cells that surround and digest harmful invading organisms that can cause life threatening disease and serious invasive infection. A healthy immune system is the key to maintaining optimum health.

Thought to be Nature's best immune system enhancer, Echinacea Purpurea is believed to be the most powerful natural antibiotic. It helps stimulate the body's resistance to infection, diseases, fever, blood poisoning, common colds and flu. Echinacea Purpurea works by helping to crank-up the immune system to ward off disease and infection. There is evidence that it may mimic the action of interferon, a natural chemical in the body that is capable of shielding cells from viral invasion. Considered an antiviral and antibacterial, Echinacea not only kills bacteria and viruses but also actually strengthens immunity by increasing the number of white blood cells in the blood stream.

Goldenseal is immensely popular in alternative medicine as an immune booster and antibiotic that is taken at the onset of a cold to help prevent further symptoms. Often called echinacea's partner, Goldenseal, is said to help stimulate the body's resistance to infection. Goldenseal has long been used in alternative medicine as an immune enhancer and a body cleanser that promotes healthy glandular functions. In laboratory studies, the berberine in Goldenseal was thought to increase blood flow to the spleen and stimulate the activity of macrophages, the important immune system blood cells that engulf and digest invasive infection.
