Imugen 30 tablets YAMAMOTO

Yamamoto® Research Imugen - Food supplement containing vitamin C, zinc, and Echinacea extracts (3 different types of extracts in the form of Ekina3®), which supports the body's natural defenses and respiratory tract function.

Yamamoto® Research Imugen is a food supplement containing Vitamin C, zinc and Echinacea extracts.

Zinc contributes to normal cognitive function, while vitamin C contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Their combined action contributes to the normal function of the immune system and the protection of cells from oxidative stress. Furthermore, Imugen contains Echinacea extract, which can support the body's natural defenses and respiratory tract function.

In detail, Imugen contains a blend of Echinacea extracts called Ekina-3®, a patent consisting of three different forms of Echinacea: Echinacea purpurea L. Moench roots and aerial parts, Echinacea pallida Nutt. roots and aerial parts, Echinacea angustifolia DC. roots, which provides a complete and powerful phytocomplex. Echinacea, one of the most sought-after and widely used medicinal plants in Italian herbal medicine, and whose use dates back to the Native Americans of North America, is known for its immunostimulant properties: several pharmacological studies support its ability to increase resistance to infections. It has proven particularly useful in treating influenza and preventing colds.

With the arrival of autumn, or rather the change of seasons and the colder months, come the first unpleasant seasonal ailments. Many of us will therefore need vitamins or supplements that can help prevent their onset (or alleviate their symptoms). Echinacea, which has proven highly effective in supporting the body's natural defenses, offers a valuable aid.

The active ingredients found in different Echinacea species may vary, but in general, all three main plants contain: flavonoids, caffeic acid derivatives, stimulant-promoting polysaccharides, polyphenols, glycoproteins, essential oils, and polyenes. Echinacea root, in particular, contains many flavonoids, natural antioxidants that support the body's defenses, thus helping to resolve those unpleasant colds and other respiratory issues.

The formulation of our supplement is also completed, as listed above, by the presence of Vitamin C and zinc.

Vitamin C (or ascorbic acid) is a water-soluble vitamin that must be consumed through diet. It participates in numerous metabolic reactions, strengthens the immune system, and helps the body prevent disease. It is best known for its antioxidant properties, which are essential for neutralizing free radicals.

Zinc is a trace element, a mineral present in the body in small amounts. It is a component of hundreds of metabolic reactions and is necessary for the function of several hormones (cofactor). It is essential for a healthy immune response, wound healing, and tissue repair. Some studies have also shown that zinc supplementation helps increase T-lymphocyte levels, thus reducing the duration and severity of infections.
