Immune System Defense
Vitabase
Overview
Vitabase Immune System Defense combines several ingredients recognized for their immune-supporting roles. Vitamin C and Zinc are present at generally effective doses. However, the efficacy of some herbal components, while traditionally used, would benefit from more high-quality human clinical trials to confirm specific immune benefits in this combined formulation.
The Good
Provides essential immune-supporting nutrients (Vitamin C, Zinc) at effective doses.
Includes a variety of traditionally used herbal extracts known for immunomodulatory and antioxidant properties.
Liquid format may offer superior absorption and is easier to consume for those who dislike pills.
The Bad
Potential for drug interactions with grapefruit extract, requiring caution for individuals on medication.
The specific immune-boosting efficacy of some herbal components (e.g., Cat's Claw, Suma, Grapefruit for immunity) lacks robust high-quality human clinical trials.
Some individuals may experience mild gastrointestinal upset from the herbal blend or other ingredients.
