There are lots of good formulas out there for immune boosting and supporting your body! Formulas that contain: Elderberry, Vitamin C, Zinc, Echinacea, and NAC target different areas of the immune system and can be beneficial during cold and flu season.
While it's important to note that depending on your medical history, these may or may not be the most effective for you. Make sure to talk with your PCP about therapeutic dosing and drug-herb interactions.

Supporting the immune system is not an identical approach for everyone. There are many health factors to consider for each individual before supplement recommendations. Generally however, there is good research on vitamins C & D, minerals zinc & selenium, quercetin, beta glucans from various medicinal mushrooms, probiotics and botanicals.
Supplements are not natural! Food is natural. Raw juicing offers the very best source of immune support! Get a juicer (not a blender) and get creative with juicing. Or visit your local fresh juicing bar (such as jamba juice). Eliminate coffee and all processes and/or fake sugars!
Probiotics- the intestine is where the Natural Killer T Cells thrive. They are your immune system. The cells need Vitamin B12 to thrive. 1000 micrograms daily then weekly then monthly. Water soluble.
Making teas from herbs such as parsley, basil, rosemary, turmeric, garlic, onions, horseradish is a simple way of improving your immune system. You should also make sure your Vitamin D levels are in optimal levels vs just being "in range." Vitamins/minerals that can also help with immune function are Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Vitamin B12, selenium, zinc. The forms that these vitamins and minerals also play a role on how effective it will be. Be sure to discuss it with your doctor especially if you are taking prescription medications.
