Hello, and welcome to Invite Health Radio. I am doctor Amanda Williams. Happy Saturday morning to everyone out there. This is a very exciting time for all of you New Yorkers. Got both of your teams in the playoffs, and I'm excited as a Detroiter because the Tigers have made it. So it will be a day of baseball and ball for me today. We've got the matchup of Michigan and Washington this evening, so I will be tuned in to all of my sports. But before that all happens, I
want to talk about nutrition. And we are having a really fun event right now at Invite Health, and we are having a fall savings event, so everything in our product line is on a buy two, get forty percent off, which is a really wonderful thing because perhaps you are running out of something and you need to swing by Invite Health, Well, everything is on sale, which is great
for you and great for your health. Now, the other fun fact is that any of the products that I talk about today, those are actually on a buy one, get one free, so savings across the board. So if I don't mention one of your favorite products today nowhere, it's still on special on that buy two, get forty percent off. But everything that I discuss, as far as the science of these different nutrients today, those are all
a buy one, get one free. So if that leads to any confusion, just go to our website and you'll be able to see which products are on a buy one, get one free and which ones are on a buy two get forty percent off. Or give us a call and our sales team will be happy to walk you through any of the questions that you may have. And as I always say, tap into that resource of being able to go in and speak with one of our
nutritional experts, because that's a free service. And I always say anytime you can get anything for free, that's wonderful.
But when you can actually go in and talk to a nutrition expert and you don't have to pay anything, definitely take advantage of that because often people feel like they're kind of lost, especially when it comes comes to your health and you're looking for ways to improve upon maybe your energy, your immune system, and you're kind of wading through the water and you're not exactly sure as to what the right supplement you should be taking. Well,
reach out and ask those questions. Because we like to personalize things, so it's very much so geared towards your specific needs. And being that we have such an extensive product line, it's very important that we hear from you and we understand what your goals are, what your needs are, so that we can identify the proper product for you specifically,
so that that really makes such a difference. I'm always kind of shocked when I see people, you know, perusing the aisles out of Walgreens, you know, looking at the vitamins and supplements, and I always want to walk up and tap them on the shoulder and say, you know,
what exactly are you looking for? You know, I don't work here, but and of course I would not be getting my products from there because I am very much in the world of you know, science and nutrition based supplements, and hence this is why I'm with Invite Health, because this is what we are rooted in, this is what we are grounded in. But I do always want to ask those questions like do you even really know what you're shopping for and why you would be using this
particular product. So at Invite Health, you always have that opportunity to ask those questions before you buy anything, and that's a wonderful service. And our nutritionists are available seven days a week, so you don't have any excuses. Maybe your week is incredibly hectic with work and other obligations that you may have, and you say, I just I don't have the time make time for your wellness. I always say that, you know you have to be proactive.
I use that term a lot. But the reason why I use that term is because I see the end game and the goal is to age gracefully. We always want to do whatever we possibly can to achieve that. We can't stop the aging process, but what we can do is we can take appropriate steps to make sure that we still have good energy and that we feel peppy as we're growing older. At least that's what I want to do. So and I know Jerry Hickey too.
You hear Jerry, Jerry's got tons of energy. But that's because he's making the right choices each and every single day, from you know, the foods that we eat to our exercise routines. And sometimes people hear the word exercise and they say, oh gosh, I'm not going to a gym. I I do not want to exercise whatsoever. That's okay, you don't have to, you know, go and pump iron in order to categorize that as exercise. There's a lot of different things that you can be doing that get
you up and moving. So if you need assistance with that, once again, reach out to one of our nutritional experts. That is what they are there to do, is to guide you through that process. So for today, I want to talk about some different products that are beneficial for a variety of different reasons. What's nice about all of
our formulations is they have so many different crossovers. You know, you may be using our green TTX, which is our liquid tincture green tea formulation for your immune system, and which is trust me. This time of year, this is when you want to start using the green TTX because we know it's cold and flu season right around the corner. We don't want to, you know, be sick for a week. So if we start using that green TTX, that allows those powerful catechins that come from the green tea to
really enhance our immune defense. And that's what the goal is at the end of the day. So but when you look at the green TTX and you say, Okay, well, I'm using it for my immune system, but I had no idea that this is so beneficial for my brain and it's so wonderful for even my joints. So when I talk about these different that's what I'm referring to. I'm referring to how these nutrients can enhance the way our joint mobility is, how it can enhance our brain connectivity.
All of these wonderful ways that these powerful antioxidants and nutrients are working to really support our overall health. So today I'm talking about some different formulations that are clearly beneficial when it comes to our immune defenses. Because this is the time of year that you want to be proactive. You don't want to wait until you feel like you're coming down with something. So hence we start take making
those immune supporting supplements now. And so we have our beta immunity, which I'm going to talk about, our probiotic HX, which is now available in that sixty count We have the green TTX as well as the black seed with rosemary and cordyceps, and that particular product is one that I turn to so frequently for folks who deal with
seasonal allergies. Now, this is a big thing down here in South Florida because there's so many different things that are blooming year round, and a lot of folks struggle with you know, maybe they have a sensitivity to a particular tree pollen, or you know, there's many different types of grasses down here in South Florida. So I have folks who I speak to on a regular basis, and once they start using that black seed with rosemary, they say, oh,
my goodness, I cannot believe the difference. You know. I used to always every year, you know, during my seasonal allergy time, I'd run off and go get whatever over the counter anti histamine from the drug store. I don't have to use that anymore, and you know I can speak for uh, not only those individuals, but for myself because I have in the past been exposed to mold.
I probably have mentioned this on this program before, but many, many years ago, I was working in a private practice and unfortunately my office had been overrun with black mold, and I was getting sicker and sicker and sicker, and they kept telling me, no, no, no, everything's fine in your office, and I'm like, no, that this is not right, Like I can tell. And I would drive home from work and I would just be in full hives. And so clearly I knew, you know, well something, I'm being exposed
to something. And come to find out, you know, money months later, it was black mold that was actually behind my desk, growing up the wall. It was really quite gross. It was fascinating to everybody else in the office. They were coming in and taking pictures and they're like, well, no, wonder why you feel horrible. But it was affecting me neurologically. I mean, I was starting to get different sensitivities, even
when it came to the nervous system. So for me, I knew right away, you know, different things that I need to turn to right now to support my immune system and to try and help my body to rid itself from all of those different mold spores was to turn to black seed because black seed has this really powerful way to target the inflammation. It's a powerful antioxidant. And then when you look at the rosemary extract which is added into this formulation, this helps to regulate the
histamine response. Now, unfortunately, back when I had this mold exposure, I was not working at Invite Health, and I did not know about the black seed, rosemary and cord aceps formulation. But since that time and since now being with Invite Health, this is a product that I continuously turn to, especially if I'm working with anyone that I know is dealing with mold sensitivity. So whether it's a tree pond, whether it's you have a sensitivity to grass dust, doesn't matter.
The black seed with rosemary extract along with that cord acep's mushroom because remember cord aceps. Whenever we're looking at mushroom extracts, we know that they are very impressive in terms of their immunomodulatory properties. So what the heck does that mean? It means the way that it allows the immune system to have a better control over these different foreign substances that can invade the body, whether you're looking
at a virus or bacteria, fungal overgrowth. We know that mushrooms are incredibly powerful, so you should if you're eating, you know, a Mediterranean style way of eating, you should include mushrooms because they are just loaded with all of these power powerful antioxidts, including ergothianine. So looking at the cordyceps mushroom, this has a high amount of ergo thianine, this very potent antioxidant that does a wonderful job in
regulating the immune system response. And your mushrooms are a natural source of vitamin D, so we know vitamin D is incredibly important for the immune system. So you take this product that contains the black seed extract, which is black kumin, and that works to target inflammation so if we have even joint inflammation. And this is another one
of those lovely examples of a crossover. I will have folks who start to use the black seed with rows mary product and they're taking it because they're dealing with a sinus issue and dealing with seasonal allergies, and they'll say, you know, it's amazing. I was having a little bit of knee pain. I started using the black seed because you know, I was sneezing and having all these problems, And within a week I can really see a noticeable difference in terms of the mobility in my joints. So
we know the power of this particular formulation. Now, how do you take it? It really depends. I Oftentimes when someone's in more of an acute situation, you're you know, sneezing, have runny eyes, all of that fun stuff that goes along with seasonal allergies. I go with the two by two by two rule, which is two capsules twice a day for two weeks, and then you can scale back to maybe perhaps two capsules per day throughout the rest
of that season. But once again, because we're all unique, the best way to use any of our formulations is to speak with one of our new tritional experts so that they can guide you as to how to get the most out of these different formulations. So I do need to squeeze in a quick break the black seat with Rosemary. That's on a buy one, get one free, so do take advantage of that. I have a ton more to cover with you, so stick around. I will
be right back just after this. Our mission for over twenty five years is to bring you the most accurate information on nutrition and health.

Happy Saturday morning to everyone. Hopefully your day is off to a lovely start. Sounds like you're gonna have some nice weather up there, which is great. We're in for a super soaker down here in South Florida for the next week, is what they're predicting. There's some type of a system out in the golf, so
we shall see. It's gonna be traveling, But I'm not going to complain, because Goodness gracious, those poor people throughout all of those many states North Carolina. I mean, just to see the pictures coming out of Ashville. You know, you just really hope that they can bounce back from that, because I mean, who would think that a hurricane coming through Florida would you know, have a bigger impact up in the mountains. But yeah, just the power of weather.
You can never take that for granted. Now, I want to talk about beta immunity. Beta immunity a CHEX is a formulation that Jerry Hickey put together many years ago. I think probably about five or six years ago now that we've had this particular product, and I remember having conversations with him in regards to this, because there is a registered trademark Nutrent that Jerry put into this formulation.
It's called beta villa and this is a very powerful LG extract, and then he partnered that with elderberry extract because elderberry has been used for hundreds of years for a variety of different conditions, but predominantly when most people think about elderberry extract, you're thinking of the immune system in upper respiratory issues. This is where many people will turn to elderberry extract. But it's loaded with all those powerful pro anthocynodins. But the beta via this unique algae
extract is the science behind this formulation. And I remember when he was, you know, looking into this and looking how he wanted to put this product together, and we had those conversations about the impressive science behind this really unique,
uniquely sourced algae extract. And one of the things that we both found incredibly impressive was not only was it supporting the immune system and this was clear based on the science, but the way in which it was doing how it was working to kind of create this symbiotic relationship within the microbiomes. And when we're thinking about our natural intestinal bacteria, it was working to kind of shape that microbiome make it healthier, and that in and of
itself is incredibly impressive. So say you're using the probiotic HX to help lay down good, healthy bacteria back into
the intestines, and then you're taking the beta immunity. That beta immunity is going to work synergistically together with the probiotic to help to protect and create this gut barrier healthy intestinal integrity, which is really important not even just for the immune defenses, but for folks who are dealing with conditions such as irritable bowel or leaky gut, because we know it's that breakdown of the intestinal integrity, the lining of the intestines that creates this kind of opening
up for all of these harsh things to start to occur,
including you know, systemic inflammation. A lot of times people don't correlate the amount of destruction that can happen if we have gut dyspiosis, if we have an imbalance of healthy bacteria compared to bad bacteria, If that bad bacteria starts to run over the good bacteria, this leaves this big door open for inflammation to start to drive up, and that inflammation may not even be affecting you symptomatically wise, as far as you know, having gas and bloating or
any type of digestive or gi issue, perhaps that is occurring in your brain, perhaps that is occurring in your joints. So this is why you know this particular product, it's so incredibly impressive. And of course because of you know, this is the kind of the start, the launching one could say of cold and flu season. We know that if we incorporate the beta immunity, this really gives us this heightened layer of immune system protection, which is really important.
So looking at the actual science of this formulation, we can see that the beta via this unique algae that is in this formulation. Just based off of the scientific studies with this, there was seventy percent fewer upper respiratory tract infections in individuals who were taking this powerful algae extract. And I mean you're looking at other you know, symptoms
that go along with that. You're talking sneezing, sore throat, scratchy throat, coughs, hoarseness, exhaustion, headaches, all of these different symptoms significantly were warded off because these individuals were supplementing with this powerful formulation. So then we say, okay, well, if we just had that alone, that would be wonderful.
But then when you add in the elderberry extract, and we know that from many, many years of looking at the research on elderberry extract and how effective it is at targeting those upper respiratory symptoms. We can go all the way back. That's from twenty nineteen in the Complementary Therapy Medicine Journal, where they looked at the effects of
elderberry extract when it came to treating upper respiratory symptoms. Now, in this particular study, this is quite interesting because this was a meta analysis of randomized controlled clinical trials and what they actually found in this particular study was that the individuals who had regular supplementation of elderberry extract had limited symptoms even in the setting of coming down with
a common cold or with influenza. And we know that this is a much safer alternative to prescription medications when it comes to things like the common cold as well as the flu. A lot of times people will go into you know, your local drug store and you get a prescription medication filled from your doctor for some type of a viral infection. Well, you know, how effective is that? This is always the question because you always have to look at the side effect. You know, what is the
risk reward to that same thing. With any of the over the counter cold and flu medications, they come with significant and potentially very detrimental side effects. So through this meta analysis, looking at all of these many different clinical studies on elderberry extract, we can see just how powerful
this extract is. So when Jerry made this product many years ago, this is why he said, you know, not only do I want to put this beta via this powerful algae, I want to partner that with elderberry extracts. So when people are supplementing with this, the immune system really gets this power boost of key nutrients that have been shown time and time again to enhance the way
that the immune defense system works. And in the Journal of Nutrients they looked at the beta via this LGA extract and this was a randomizedb bline placebo controlled trial. What's unique about this extract is it contains a high amount of beta glue can. Now, beta glue cans are known to be able to evoke this powerful immune system response.
So when we're consuming things that have natural beta glue cans such as your mushrooms, will kind of default back to mushrooms, but we can see how the beta glucan
helps once again has that immunomodulatory effect. So through this study that was conducted with the LG extract that produces this high amount of beta glue can, they said that provided the evidence that supplementation with this powerful nutrient had the ability to fend off upper respiratory infections and for those who were currently dealing with symptoms, that actually limited the symptomatic effects of those different viral as well as
bacterial infections. So I wanted to talk about that product today because we are into the cold and flu season. As much as we don't want to, you know, admit that, but we are a lot of times we look at cold and flu season as being January February, but you have to look at October and how a lot of this starts to get fast tracked in October. So with that being said, we don't want to wait until January or February before we start to care about our immune system.
We want to start to take action today. We want to say, well, I don't want, you know, the holiday season to come around and here I am, you know, in bed sick with the flu. When if I would have just started to take my beta immunity along with my probiotic HX, and I'm taking my GRIPX, taking two full droppers of that, sipping on that throughout the day. My immune system is going to be very, very happy. And this is all based off of these many clinical
research trials. So this is a wonderful formulation and sometimes it gets overlooked in our very extensive line of products. For those of you who have been Invite Health customers for so many years, first we thank you, but secondly, you know we have a very extensive line. We have so many formulations, and if you're on our website and you're looking, you know, based off of you know, the
different categories. If you're looking at the immune system formulations, you may kind of skim over beta immunity and not understand the real power that this particular product can give you. So this is why when we're looking at this time of year, we say, well, what should I be doing proactively Beta immunity excellent choice. One capsule a day. It doesn't matter if you take this in the morning or
if you take this in the evening. Just the fact that you're taking it allows the immune system to get that wonderful exposure to those beta glue cans along with the power of that elderberry extract, which has been shown time and time again to really pack a punch. And remember not that the elderberry is only for upper respiratory symptoms. That elderberry extract has also been shown to help the body with daily detoxification, so for liver health. Also really
wonderful for brain health. Those powerful antioxidants can cross that blood brain barrier. So when you're supplementing with these products, I always like people to understand the many different ways that these nutrients are working to enhance so many different systems,
because everything is interconnected. And I always like to point that out because if you're thinking in the traditional medical setting, doctors always like to break things down as though they are isolated, like well, your cardiovascular system doesn't have anything to do with your skeletal system, or that your skeletal system has nothing to do with your liver. That's not
the case. All of those cells in the body, the trillions of cells in the human body, are all working in a sense together, and so there are different pathways in different signals, and everything needs to be working as one. So if we are dealing with a cardiovascular condition, well, no wonder why we can have effects outside of the heart, outside of the blood vessels. This is why you can have problems when it comes to brain health because we have a heart condition. Why we can have problems with
our kidneys when we have a heart condition. So we always want to be proactive in all of these different areas for cellular stability, in cellular energy production. So using these different formulations you do get that cross over, which is a wonderful thing. So, speaking of cardiovascular health, I do want to talk about the CARDIOHX. I know baseball is today and so you've got the Yankees and the Mets on tap, and that may drive up your blood pressure.
So I want to talk about the CARDIOHX and how beneficial that can be for your system and what's actually contained in this wonderful formulation. But I do need to squeeze in a quick break, so stick around with me. I will be right back just after this.

dot com and welcome back to Invite Health Radio. I am doctor Amanda Williams. Got baseball on tap, which I'm so. I'm over the moon for the Detroit Tigers. I don't know what's going on up there in Detroit and Lions. Last year, you know, doing so good, and we're looking pretty good this year and now the Tigers, so exciting time for me to be a Detroit sports fan. But I know that I'm talking to New Yorkers and I know that you guys have your Yankees and your Mets.
So it's a good day for all of us. Hopefully it'll be a good day for all of us fans at the end of the day because our teams all win whoever you're rooting for, and if not, there's always the next game. But in any event, we know that being a fan can come with those highs and the lows, and sometimes this can drive your blood pressure up. Well. We know that cardiovascular disease and hypertension, high blood pressure major problem in this country. Now what's interesting about high
blood pressure? And myself as well as Jerry Hicky, we'll both you know, say this, you know if you have extremely high blood pressure, because we have people reach out to us all the time and say, you know, what do you guys have that I can take? There are times where a prescribed medication is truly warranted. So let me just put that out there into the universe. I get it. I get why people don't want to take
those medications. Totally understand. We know all the many side effects, the nutrient depletions, all of the dreaded things that go along with that. But when it comes to hypertension, this is one of those areas where you just don't want to play around with it because you don't want to have uncontrolled high blood pressure and then that leads to vask their damage and leads to a stroke or a
heart attack. So you know, you always have to, you know, seek out your advice of your physician if you do find that your your blood pressure is incredibly difficult to control. But what also is quite interesting about high blood pressure is a lot of this is very controllable. We can look at diet, we can look at exercise, we can look at just getting basic nutrients into our system and how effective those nutrients can actually be to regulate our blood pressure. So let's take a step back and let's
just say what are the things that we know. Well, we know that carrying excess weight is an independent risk factor for high blood pressure. We also know that close to fifty percent of the US population is clinically obese, So this is a big problem. So that you have being overweight and then you have obese. Well, if you have close to fifty percent of the US population being clinically obese. Well, we know we have a lot of individuals who are overweight and that's at risk for high
blood pressure. So if we say to ourselves, well, if I can get my weight in check, this can help stabilize my blood pressure. Yes, we know this. We know that foods can make a difference. If you're adhering to a Mediterranean diet, that means that your cells are getting the proper nutrients to facilitate blood pressure and heart rate.
They're not getting over sodiumed As an example, if you're eating an ultra processed diet, which is what most Americans do unfortunately eat, this is not ideal for your circulatory system or for any aspect of your health. We know all of these different things. We know that stress is a major driver, which is why brought up you know, watching being a fan, watching a game being stressed out. There is a difference between good stress and bad stress.
We understand this, but sometimes there's a fine line between being excited as a sports fan or a fan of whatever you're doing and having that kind of teeter over into a bad stress environment for your system. So what do we do well, we take the right steps. We make sure that we are doing, you know, exercises that are heart healthy. What types of exercises we're talking just walking? I mean that's really good for our circulatory system. Going
up and down flight of stairs very beneficial. It's getting the blood moving, getting that oxygenation out to the tissues very helpful. We look at our diet, we say what changes can I make you? Am I adhering to a Mediterranean diet on a regular basis? Or am I just eating healthy two days out of the week. What can I do each day that'll help my blood pressure? And then if I have stress, how do I best manage that? What mindfulness techniques can I use to decompress? Do I
need to turn to different formulations such as elthianine. Remember that's that powerful amino acid that comes from green tea that helps to release gabba, which is your calming neurotransmitter. Do I need to start taking elthianine because I have too much stress? So there's a lot of things so we can do to get our blood pressure regulated without having to, you know, just succumb to the fact that we need to be on a prescription medication, So always
keep that in mind. But we also have our wonderful cardio HX formulation. This particular product. Jerry made this so many years ago and it remains one of our most popular formulations, and there's a reason why justly so. It contains magnesium, it contains tourine, and it contains hawthorn extract. Now, this trio of nutrients allows the body to best regulate the way in which the heart is pumping and the
way in which our blood pressure is regulated. So we start to look at the scientific research on these different nutrients. Now let's look at touring, because touring is such a critical and important amino acid. It's very key for any of the excitable tissues in our body. When we think about excitable tissues, we always think about the heart and
the brain. So having touring on board is not only great for heart rate and for circuittory function, but also for brain connectivity and the way in which the brain cells communicate with one another. That's important because if we want to have good memory, good focus as we get older, we need touring. So this is one of those cross functional supplements once again, because it's not like you take cardiohacks and the tourings only making action within the heart
and the circulatory system. That touring is also crossing the blood brain barrier to support your brain health. We know that touring, being an amino acid, has many different functional roles, one of which which is really quite impressive, and this was published in the Nutrients Journal in twenty twenty, that touring itself has really profound anti inflammatory effects on the
circulatory system. What is one of the major problems with heart disease, with hypertension, it is that chronic, low grade inflammation. It's the inflammation that's occurring within those blood vessels that's a big problem. And we know that touring, which is found in high abundance in our brain and our muscles,
even in your eyes, in the retina. But if we don't have adequate touring because of diet, because of chronic inflammation that's withering that toring down, then we're kind of left on our own to be able to fight off this inflammation. So looking at its anti inflammatory effects, looking at how effective it is in blood pressure regulation, how it can actually protect against coronary heart disease, these are all things that we know about this natural amino acid.
So hence, this is why touring is in the CARDIOAHX formulation, and then magnesium. I mean clearly, we know magnesium is that one mineral that when it comes to our intake of we just fall short. And that's a problem for pretty much every single system and every function in the body, because we know that magnesium is required for over three
hundred different pathways and different signals in our system. We know that close to seventy five percent of Americans do not get adequate magnesium in their diet each and every single day. So if you have magnesium insufficiency or inadequate magnesium intake, and we need magnesium to allow our blood vessels to remain relaxed and dilated so we get good blood low through those vessels. If we have a lack of magnesium, what happens to those vessels They start to
tighten up, they get constricted. Well, the more constricted your blood vessels are, the more force it takes for that blood to be able to push through, and hence this is hypertension. So you can see that direct correlation between low magnesium intake coming from your diet and a concurrent problem with regulating blood pressure. So once again, this is why magnesium is so incredibly critical and then you have hawthorn extract, and hawthorn in and of itself is so
incredibly impressive. It is known as a cardiotonic, it's an herb, and this has been studied extensively and it's still used actually in many European countries as a prescribed medication for heart failure. So it can help the contractility, the ability for the heart itself to pump, and looking at hawthorn in the treatment of different cardiovascular disease states has been studied throughout many different decades. And what we know about hawthorn extract is not only how effective it is, but
how incredibly safe this is. And once again we can kind of default back and say, well, if you look at certain prescription medications and they come with all of these different risks, then it makes a lot of sense that we use this herbal extract that's been studied extensively and shown to have these powerful abilities within the circulatory system the cardiovascular system in general, and we partner that
with magnesium, and we partner that with touring. This is what makes cardio such a wonderful blended formulation and why people have been using this product from us for the better part of two decades now because it's effective and when they're using it, they can see the difference in terms of their blood pressure reads. And this is another little fun fact. You should always be testing your blood pressure. This is one of the ways to help regulate your
blood pressure. A lot of times people have a fear of knowing what their blood pressure is. So this is part of that regulation of the sympathetic nervous system which can be on overdrive and kicking that parasympathetic nervous system back into gear. So test your blood pressure at home, that's key, and then take your CARDIOHX. Now, once again, how do I take this product. It depends on your specific needs. It might be that you take two day, but it also could be that you need to take
two twice a day. So going in and talking to one of our nutritionists, if you have a little diary of what your blood pressure reads are, it might be that your blood pressure is always pretty good in the morning, but come afternoon your blood pressure is a little bit more out of control. Then you may find that taking your CARDIOHX at lunchtime and then again at dinner is
going to yield you the best support. But go and talk to one of our nutritionists that we can give you that personalized advice as to how to get the most out of these formulations. So I do need to squeeze in one more break, so stick around with me. I will be right back just after this.

We have to be proactive to our immune system. We can partner that with that probiotic HX now available in a sixty count We have the black seed with rosemary and cords ups, another really great way to enhance our immune defenses. And if you deal with seasonal allergies by all means, this is an excellent product for you to
turn to have the green tea TX. Now understanding the power of EGCG, which is at b gallo kadokin gaylight for those of you who want to have a word of the day, that can be your word of the day is EGCG. And we know that EGCG is much more than we often give it credit for. As I mentioned earlier in today's show, we clearly can see how green tea and this powerful constituent, this katakin within green
tea works to kind of stabilize our immune system. And it's not only through its action as an antioxidant, but one of the other things that we know about EGCG is that it actually can turn off something known as HMGB one. So when HMGB one is on a high status in the body, this can lead to a high
amount of inflammation. Which is why when you start to look at the really diverse ways to which green tea has been shown to be effective in the human body, this is why it's so powerful because it can actually turn off that switch, and in doing so, it can lessen inflammation in your knee, it can lessen inflammation in your gut, it can lessen inflammation in the brain. This is what makes green tea so incredibly powerful, But let's just say we're looking at it in the setting of
the immune system. I always go back to a study that was conducted many years ago, and it was done in a nursing home, because whenever you're in close proximity to others. You see this on military basis, you see this in hospitals. You know, I always say hospitals are not always the healthiest place to you know, just hang out.
A lot of bugs at hospitals. So one of the things that we recognize is that EGCG can actually coat the back of the throat when we're taking it in this oral liquid form, and in doing so it can help when you think about the different respiratory viruses you breathe that in, and this is where the effective process begins.
So what they did in this really profound nursing home study is they had individuals start to gargle with green tea and then they were assessing, you know, their risk of getting the flu, because you know, as the flu starts to circulate, this is you know, obviously a high
risk population. And they found that individuals who were in this group that were gargling with green tea were not getting the flu, and so this obviously the researchers were like, well, I guess this once again reinforces that, yes, the power of green tea truly is far reaching. It is a means to allow the immune system to have a higher response rate. It is a means to allow the joints to have less inflammation. So when you're taking the green te TX and I always advise using two full droppers,
not a single drop. So like when you squeeze up on the green tea, use two full droppers. Add that in with anywhere from four to six ounces of water, just kind of depends on how bitter. Some people like to have that bitter bitter taste. But if you want it more water down, that's fine. It's not like you're washing away the power of those catkins. You're not. I mean, you can add it to twelve ounces of water, you're
still getting those catkins. But the main thing with this is we want to be able to get those catkins into our system so that it can lead to a higher response that if we're out, you're going to the Yankees game, you're going to the Mets game, You're going to be around people and they're coughing and they're sneezing, that your likelihood of catching whatever it is that they
have can be minimized. And this is why we have formulations like beta immunity, why we use the probiotic HAX, why we have the green TTX and the black Sea These are all to support the overall immune defenses. Now, finally, I also have because I'm thinking, you know, it's the fall, but as I also mentioned, I just heard what your weather's going to be like today, so and it sounds like it's going to be quite balmy, but you know a couple of days from now it could be cold
and you might feel like winters right around the corner. Coco, we want to start thinking about the coco ahax because the cocohax is a powerful blend of Coco flavinols partnered up with these fruit extracts. So it's if it was just coco flavanols alone, that would be great, but of course Jerry wanted to make it even strong, so this is why it has this added blend of anthosygnans into it. The reason I like talking about Coco during this time of year is because you do get some of those
chillier days or you know, cooler evenings. This is a great product to turn to. Add a scoop of that coco HX and you can add that in with some you know, almond milk if you'd like, you can put that in with you know, just water. You can add it in with yogurt. But because we're thinking, you know, the cooler weather, usually if you want to sip on that as a hot beverage, I encourage you to do so.
Once again understanding the many different ways that those powerful flavi and als are working to support brain health and heart health, even blood sugar regulation. And this is always kind of one of those areas where people are like, really, I can take cocoa and it helps with my blood sugar. Yes, because we're not talking milk chocolate folks, We're not talking
about a sugar ladened candy bar. We're looking at the actual coco flavinols, and those cocoa flavonols really work to allow the body to have a quick response to any spike in blood sugar. So the cocoa HX that's on special today as well as digestive HX. This is important as well because our digestive system we know as we grow older has a tendency to not be as efficient as when we were younger. So as we you know, start to head into the cooler months and maybe your
diet is going to change a bit. This is why we add in that digestive HX to help to support an aid in digestion.
