Probiotics reduce flu symptoms
Probiotic effects on cold and influenza-like symptom incidence and duration in children.
We examined how Lactobacillus acidophilus could help reduce cold and flu-like symptoms in young children during the winter months. In this well-structured study, 326 children aged 3 to 5 participated. They were randomly assigned to one of three groups: one received a placebo, while the others were given either Lactobacillus acidophilus alone or in combination with another probiotic, Bifidobacterium animalis subsp lactis.
Over a period of six months, the children in both probiotic groups reported significantly fewer symptoms and shorter durations of ailments compared to those on the placebo. For instance, the incidence of fever dropped by 53% to 73%, while coughing and rhinorrhea (a runny nose) also saw impressive reductions. Children taking probiotics needed antibiotics much less often and missed fewer days of childcare due to illness.
Overall, this study suggests that incorporating daily Lactobacillus acidophilus into children's diets can be an effective approach to bolster their health during flu season. It shows promise as a safe and helpful way to reduce common winter illnesses in young kids.

I’m already buying 3 cans, having taken it in the second and third trimester and after giving birth. Thanks to this multivitamin during pregnancy, I never had the flu and my haemoglobin rose from 92 to 124. Even in the last trimester, this vitamin significantly helped with heartburn. I highly recommend these vitamins to those planning a pregnancy or currently expecting. I hope my review is helpful.

Good vitamins! I was very pleased that after taking these vitamins, I did not fall ill and experienced no negative reactions from my stomach. I only took them for one month in February to maintain my immunity and ward off viruses and influenza. I successfully managed to cope with this, despite going to work and being in public places. However, it was likely a combination of measures that helped—before leaving the house, I smeared the inside of my nose with a protective ointment based on herbs, and upon returning home, I rinsed my nose with salt water and gargled with water mixed with salt and turmeric.

Better Not Found Bye! The Most Useful Bacteria! Although gastroenterologists have differing opinions, I was fortunate to find a knowledgeable one who praised the benefits of probiotics. I discovered Streptococcus to be particularly effective, as advised by my doctor. We have been consuming it for a month and were pleasantly surprised by the results! During flu season, my child had been free from illness for six weeks, while I caught the virus twice. My child only experienced minor symptoms. When he eventually developed a cough, I increased his dosage along with vitamin C, zinc, and vitamin D, and he showed significant improvement, nearly eliminating his cough! I have also ordered the adult version for myself due to its impressive effects.

Promising vaccine approach for influenza
Engineering of the PapMV vaccine platform with a shortened M2e peptide leads to an effective one dose influenza vaccine.
We explored a new vaccine approach using papaya mosaic virus particles fused with a short influenza peptide. This innovative structure showed promise in generating strong immune responses after just one dose in mice. The results indicated that vaccinated mice were significantly protected from the flu, suggesting that this could pave the way for an effective, broadly protective vaccine. While the study used mouse models, the findings could provide insights into future influenza vaccine development.

NAC shows promise for liver injury
Utility of N-acetylcysteine in Non-Acetaminophen-Induced Liver Injury Secondary to Influenza A Infection.
We observed a fascinating case involving the use of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) to treat a young female patient who experienced acute liver injury during an influenza A infection. This situation raised a compelling question: Could NAC, typically known for addressing liver damage from acetaminophen, also provide benefits in other contexts?
Our findings highlighted that NAC is being explored for its potential effects on liver health during viral infections like influenza A. This is particularly intriguing given that the patient was facing impending liver failure, a serious complication often associated with such viral illnesses. By utilizing intravenous NAC, the patient showed a positive response.
Although the specific details of the study's methodology, such as control groups or blinding, were not provided, the outcome suggests promising effects of NAC in treating liver injury linked to viral infections. This case may pave the way for further research into NAC’s effectiveness for flu-related liver complications.

Selenium affects flu immunity variably
Selenium supplementation has beneficial and detrimental effects on immunity to influenza vaccine in older adults.
We conducted a 12-week study to explore the effects of selenium supplementation on flu immunity in healthy adults aged 50-64. Participants were divided into groups receiving different selenium doses or no selenium at all.
The results indicated that selenium could have both positive and negative impacts on immunity against the flu vaccine, influenced by the amount and type of selenium consumed. This complexity highlights the need for careful consideration of the benefits and risks associated with selenium supplementation in boosting flu immunity.

Vitamin D reduces flu risk
Association Between Vitamin D and Influenza: Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Trials.
We explored the potential benefits of vitamin D supplementation for reducing the risk of influenza infections. Through a comprehensive analysis of multiple Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs), we aimed to clarify whether taking vitamin D can help prevent the flu.
Our investigation identified 10 relevant trials that included a total of 4,859 participants. These studies varied in their dosages and duration of vitamin D use, allowing us to assess overall effectiveness across different populations.
The findings were encouraging: our analysis demonstrated that vitamin D supplementation appears to significantly reduce the risk of getting influenza, suggesting that those who increase their vitamin D intake might be better protected during flu season.
Importantly, we did not find significant differences between the studies that could affect our result, and there was no hint of publication bias. Consequently, we can confidently suggest that including vitamin D in our health strategies could enhance our defenses against the flu.

Novel painless flu vaccine method
Clinical study and stability assessment of a novel transcutaneous influenza vaccination using a dissolving microneedle patch.
We investigated a new influenza vaccination method using a dissolving microneedle patch made from hyaluronic acid. This painless transcutaneous immunization (TCI) was tested against traditional subcutaneous injections.
In our study, we compared the immune responses between two groups: one receiving the microneedle patch, and another getting standard injections. Both methods showed similarly strong immune responses against the A/H1N1 and A/H3N2 strains.
Notably, the TCI group exhibited a stronger immune response to the B strain. These findings suggest that this new vaccination approach could be an effective and user-friendly alternative to traditional methods.

Zinc treatment impacts flu virus entry
Epipharyngeal Abrasive Therapy Down-regulates the Expression of Cav1.2: A Key Molecule in Influenza Virus Entry.
In our study, we examined how epipharyngeal abrasive therapy (EAT), which includes the use of zinc chloride, affects the expression of a key molecule known as Cav1.2. This molecule is essential for the influenza virus to enter cells, making it a crucial target in flu prevention strategies.
We compared two groups of patients: those who received EAT and those who did not. Our findings revealed that the levels of Cav1.2 were significantly lower in the EAT group, at a striking 4.19 times less than in the non-treated group. This suggests that the squamous metaplasia induced by EAT—which is a process of changing the epithelium—could be a beneficial approach to limiting flu infections.
The results of the study highlight zinc's potential indirect role in flu prevention by remarking on its contribution to lowering the expression of a critical receptor for the virus. Although we didn't isolate the effects of zinc alone, the findings indicate that treatments involving zinc, like EAT, may offer a straightforward way to help limit the impact of influenza.

This suggests that the squamous metaplasia induced by EAT—which is a process of changing the epithelium—could be a beneficial approach to limiting flu infections.

Vitamin C mitigates flu pneumonia
A new mechanism of vitamin C effects on A/FM/1/47(H1N1) virus-induced pneumonia in restraint-stressed mice.
We examined the effects of vitamin C on pneumonia caused by the influenza virus, specifically the H1N1 strain, in mice under stress. The study found that when exposed to restraint stress, the mice experienced increased mortality and more severe pneumonia symptoms.
However, by giving them oral vitamin C at doses of 125 and 250 mg/kg, we observed a significant reduction in these severe outcomes. Vitamin C seemed to modulate the expression of certain genes related to the immune response, such as MAVS and IRF3, and increased the expression of NF-κB, which plays a key role in the body's antiviral defense.
Our research suggested that vitamin C's protective effects might stem from its ability to inhibit excess cortisol production in the adrenal gland, which is often elevated due to stress. By lowering cortisol levels, vitamin C may help reduce susceptibility to influenza infections, making it a potential ally during the flu season, especially for those experiencing stress.
Through these findings, we highlighted a new mechanism for how vitamin C can be beneficial during influenza infections, particularly for those who are feeling overwhelmed.

Garlic shows potential against influenza
Antiviral activity of diallyl trisulfide against H9N2 avian influenza virus infection in vitro and in vivo.
We explored the potential benefits of a garlic-derived compound called diallyl trisulfide (DATS) in combating the H9N2 avian influenza virus. This study specifically looked at its antiviral properties both in human cells and in mice to see if it could provide relief from this infection.
In our research, we treated human lung A549 cells and also utilized BABL/c mice to assess DATS’s effectiveness. We applied DATS before and after the infection and measured its impact on viral loads, inflammatory responses, and overall lung health.
The results were promising. Whether given before or after exposure to the virus, DATS treatment reduced viral loads and led to an improved immune response by increasing antiviral gene expression while also decreasing inflammatory cytokines. Similar benefits were observed in infected mice, highlighting less lung inflammation and edema.
Overall, the findings suggest that DATS may offer a novel alternative for treating influenza, specifically the H9N2 strain, showcasing garlic's potential role in managing viral infections.

Magnesium essential for immune response
Mg regulation of kinase signaling and immune function.
We explored how magnesium affects our immune response, particularly in relation to fighting off influenza. By examining how magnesium levels influence T cell function, we noticed that lower levels of magnesium in the body could hinder the T cell receptor (TCR) activation process. This is significant because TCR activation is crucial for mounting an effective immune response against viruses like influenza.
Our findings revealed that insufficient magnesium decreases the activation of important immune cells, specifically CD8 T cells, which are vital for responding to infections. This was further demonstrated in mice where reduced serum magnesium concentrations led to weaker immune responses and more severe illness from influenza A virus.
Overall, we observed that magnesium not only serves as an essential cofactor in cellular processes but also plays a direct role in maintaining strong immune function. Ensuring an adequate intake of magnesium is therefore important for enhancing our ability to combat viral infections effectively.

Elderberry inhibits H1N1 flu infection
Elderberry flavonoids bind to and prevent H1N1 infection in vitro.
We delved into how elderberry, specifically from the black elderberry fruit, impacts the flu virus, H1N1. Using an innovative technique called Direct Analysis in Real Time Mass Spectrometry (DART TOF-MS), we were able to identify the powerful anti-viral properties of elderberry extract without the need for complicated processes like separation or derivatization.
Our findings revealed that elderberry extract does indeed inhibit H1N1 infection in a lab setting, with an effective concentration (IC50) of 252 micrograms per milliliter. Interestingly, we discovered that flavonoids present in the elderberry bind to H1N1 virions—essentially blocking their ability to infect host cells.
Among the compounds, two key flavonoids emerged: the 5,7,3',4'-tetra-O-methylquercetin and dihydromyricetin. These compounds not only bound to the virus but also effectively prevented infection. Notably, the tetra-O-methylquercetin demonstrated an impressive IC50 of just 0.13 micrograms per milliliter, which is comparable to well-known antiviral medications like Oseltamivir and Amantadine.
In summary, elderberry shows promising potential as a natural remedy against the H1N1 flu, offering a fascinating area for further research and utilization in flu prevention strategies.

For lingering coughs after recovery from colds or flu, I recommend taking 10ml twice daily. After using the syrup twice, my cough astonishingly ceased. It has no side effects, so I encourage you to try it.

Elderberry inhibits H1N1 flu infection
Elderberry flavonoids bind to and prevent H1N1 infection in vitro.
We delved into how elderberry, specifically from the black elderberry fruit, impacts the flu virus, H1N1. Using an innovative technique called Direct Analysis in Real Time Mass Spectrometry (DART TOF-MS), we were able to identify the powerful anti-viral properties of elderberry extract without the need for complicated processes like separation or derivatization.
Our findings revealed that elderberry extract does indeed inhibit H1N1 infection in a lab setting, with an effective concentration (IC50) of 252 micrograms per milliliter. Interestingly, we discovered that flavonoids present in the elderberry bind to H1N1 virions—essentially blocking their ability to infect host cells.
Among the compounds, two key flavonoids emerged: the 5,7,3',4'-tetra-O-methylquercetin and dihydromyricetin. These compounds not only bound to the virus but also effectively prevented infection. Notably, the tetra-O-methylquercetin demonstrated an impressive IC50 of just 0.13 micrograms per milliliter, which is comparable to well-known antiviral medications like Oseltamivir and Amantadine.
In summary, elderberry shows promising potential as a natural remedy against the H1N1 flu, offering a fascinating area for further research and utilization in flu prevention strategies.

Vitamin C mitigates flu pneumonia
A new mechanism of vitamin C effects on A/FM/1/47(H1N1) virus-induced pneumonia in restraint-stressed mice.
We examined the effects of vitamin C on pneumonia caused by the influenza virus, specifically the H1N1 strain, in mice under stress. The study found that when exposed to restraint stress, the mice experienced increased mortality and more severe pneumonia symptoms.
However, by giving them oral vitamin C at doses of 125 and 250 mg/kg, we observed a significant reduction in these severe outcomes. Vitamin C seemed to modulate the expression of certain genes related to the immune response, such as MAVS and IRF3, and increased the expression of NF-κB, which plays a key role in the body's antiviral defense.
Our research suggested that vitamin C's protective effects might stem from its ability to inhibit excess cortisol production in the adrenal gland, which is often elevated due to stress. By lowering cortisol levels, vitamin C may help reduce susceptibility to influenza infections, making it a potential ally during the flu season, especially for those experiencing stress.
Through these findings, we highlighted a new mechanism for how vitamin C can be beneficial during influenza infections, particularly for those who are feeling overwhelmed.

Excellent vitamins! We have been taking them for several years during colds and flu! At the first signs of illness or contact with someone infected, we begin using this vitamin C, and all symptoms vanish by the second day! It’s a fantastic product! I always keep it in my first aid kit and share it with friends and family, all of whom are delighted! My daughter loves the raspberry flavour, while my son and husband prefer orange and tangerine. Everyone can find a flavour they like! I highly recommend it! My favourite product on Ayherb!

They work quickly! I felt immediate relief from flu symptoms as soon as I took the first cap. I had been feeling unwell, weak, and mentally confused due to a virus. With each cap I took, I regained strength and clarity. I highly recommend these and have ordered additional products from this brand, including Madre Labs C. However, I believe GOL raw C is superior. It's wise to stock up during colder weather as these are raw and could be compromised in hot conditions.

Ascorbic acid is a vitamin that our bodies cannot create, hence we need to obtain it from food. A lack of proper nutrition can lead to a deficiency. It aids in various metabolic processes, enhances resistance to infections, and supports tissue regeneration. For treating vitamin C deficiency, a daily intake of 1000 mg is recommended.

A new mechanism of vitamin C effects on A/FM/1/47(H1N1) virus-induced pneumonia in restraint-stressed mice.
We examined the effects of vitamin C on pneumonia caused by the influenza virus, specifically the H1N1 strain, in mice under stress. The study found that when exposed to restraint stress, the mice experienced increased mortality and more severe pneumonia symptoms.
However, by giving them oral vitamin C at doses of 125 and 250 mg/kg, we observed a significant reduction in these severe outcomes. Vitamin C seemed to modulate the expression of certain genes related to the immune response, such as MAVS and IRF3, and increased the expression of NF-κB, which plays a key role in the body's antiviral defense.
Our research suggested that vitamin C's protective effects might stem from its ability to inhibit excess cortisol production in the adrenal gland, which is often elevated due to stress. By lowering cortisol levels, vitamin C may help reduce susceptibility to influenza infections, making it a potential ally during the flu season, especially for those experiencing stress.
Through these findings, we highlighted a new mechanism for how vitamin C can be beneficial during influenza infections, particularly for those who are feeling overwhelmed.

Unbelievable product in terms of both results and value for money! I struggled with swallowing tablets and initially took vitamin C capsules; however, the results were not the same. I shared the tablets with friends who had flu, and within 24 hours they felt better. When I caught the flu this week and took the capsules, I noticed no improvement. Today, I managed to swallow the Now Foods tablets, and I am already feeling almost back to normal. This product is fabulous! I'm so glad to have experienced such positive results.

Melatonin mitigates flu-induced lung injury
Melatonin alleviates lung injury in H1N1-infected mice by mast cell inactivation and cytokine storm suppression.
We explored the potential of melatonin as a treatment for H1N1 flu infection. In our study, we found that melatonin, a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compound, could significantly protect against the flu in both laboratory tests and in living mice.
Our findings showed that higher local levels of melatonin in the nose and lungs correlated with lower death rates from the virus. In fact, melatonin-deficient mice had much higher mortality rates, which were notably reduced when treated with melatonin.
We discovered that melatonin primarily works by targeting mast cells, which are important players in the body’s immune response. By suppressing the activation of these cells after H1N1 infection, melatonin helps control the release of inflammatory proteins, leading to less damage in lung tissue. This mechanism highlights how melatonin treatment can prevent serious lung injury caused by the virus, opening up new avenues for post-flu recovery strategies.

Magnesium essential for immune response
Mg regulation of kinase signaling and immune function.
We explored how magnesium affects our immune response, particularly in relation to fighting off influenza. By examining how magnesium levels influence T cell function, we noticed that lower levels of magnesium in the body could hinder the T cell receptor (TCR) activation process. This is significant because TCR activation is crucial for mounting an effective immune response against viruses like influenza.
Our findings revealed that insufficient magnesium decreases the activation of important immune cells, specifically CD8 T cells, which are vital for responding to infections. This was further demonstrated in mice where reduced serum magnesium concentrations led to weaker immune responses and more severe illness from influenza A virus.
Overall, we observed that magnesium not only serves as an essential cofactor in cellular processes but also plays a direct role in maintaining strong immune function. Ensuring an adequate intake of magnesium is therefore important for enhancing our ability to combat viral infections effectively.

Healthy vitamins and excellent sleep! Magnesium acts as a natural anti-stress factor, reducing sensitivity to external influences and inhibiting excitation processes in the central nervous system. Insufficient magnesium can lead to anxiety, insomnia, and fatigue. People often experience "causeless" headaches. Magnesium, especially when paired with vitamin B6, normalises the nervous system during stress and depression. I took NOW Magnesium with Vitamin B6 nightly to alleviate stress, irritability, and improve sleep. The effects were noticeable; my sleep and nerves improved significantly! I advise against taking it on an empty stomach. Remarkably, my eye puffiness decreased in the morning!

Vitamin D reduces flu risk
Association Between Vitamin D and Influenza: Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Trials.
We explored the potential benefits of vitamin D supplementation for reducing the risk of influenza infections. Through a comprehensive analysis of multiple Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs), we aimed to clarify whether taking vitamin D can help prevent the flu.
Our investigation identified 10 relevant trials that included a total of 4,859 participants. These studies varied in their dosages and duration of vitamin D use, allowing us to assess overall effectiveness across different populations.
The findings were encouraging: our analysis demonstrated that vitamin D supplementation appears to significantly reduce the risk of getting influenza, suggesting that those who increase their vitamin D intake might be better protected during flu season.
Importantly, we did not find significant differences between the studies that could affect our result, and there was no hint of publication bias. Consequently, we can confidently suggest that including vitamin D in our health strategies could enhance our defenses against the flu.

Vitamin C mitigates flu pneumonia
A new mechanism of vitamin C effects on A/FM/1/47(H1N1) virus-induced pneumonia in restraint-stressed mice.
We examined the effects of vitamin C on pneumonia caused by the influenza virus, specifically the H1N1 strain, in mice under stress. The study found that when exposed to restraint stress, the mice experienced increased mortality and more severe pneumonia symptoms.
However, by giving them oral vitamin C at doses of 125 and 250 mg/kg, we observed a significant reduction in these severe outcomes. Vitamin C seemed to modulate the expression of certain genes related to the immune response, such as MAVS and IRF3, and increased the expression of NF-κB, which plays a key role in the body's antiviral defense.
Our research suggested that vitamin C's protective effects might stem from its ability to inhibit excess cortisol production in the adrenal gland, which is often elevated due to stress. By lowering cortisol levels, vitamin C may help reduce susceptibility to influenza infections, making it a potential ally during the flu season, especially for those experiencing stress.
Through these findings, we highlighted a new mechanism for how vitamin C can be beneficial during influenza infections, particularly for those who are feeling overwhelmed.

Probiotics may reduce winter colds
A new chance of preventing winter diseases by the administration of synbiotic formulations.
We conducted a thorough study to see if synbiotic preparations, including lactoferrin, could strengthen our defenses against winter illnesses.
Over three cold seasons, we followed 721 healthy volunteers, comparing different formulations against a placebo in a double-blind setup.
Results indicated that regular intake of these synbiotics might help reduce both the frequency and severity of respiratory infections during the winter months.

Vitamin C mitigates flu pneumonia
A new mechanism of vitamin C effects on A/FM/1/47(H1N1) virus-induced pneumonia in restraint-stressed mice.
We examined the effects of vitamin C on pneumonia caused by the influenza virus, specifically the H1N1 strain, in mice under stress. The study found that when exposed to restraint stress, the mice experienced increased mortality and more severe pneumonia symptoms.
However, by giving them oral vitamin C at doses of 125 and 250 mg/kg, we observed a significant reduction in these severe outcomes. Vitamin C seemed to modulate the expression of certain genes related to the immune response, such as MAVS and IRF3, and increased the expression of NF-κB, which plays a key role in the body's antiviral defense.
Our research suggested that vitamin C's protective effects might stem from its ability to inhibit excess cortisol production in the adrenal gland, which is often elevated due to stress. By lowering cortisol levels, vitamin C may help reduce susceptibility to influenza infections, making it a potential ally during the flu season, especially for those experiencing stress.
Through these findings, we highlighted a new mechanism for how vitamin C can be beneficial during influenza infections, particularly for those who are feeling overwhelmed.

For any symptoms of COVID or a common flu, this works brilliantly! Although I’ve only been taking it for a week, I’ve noticed a significant difference. Working in hospitality, I'm often exposed to many people. When I began to experience slight flu symptoms, I discovered this supplement and was keen to try it. I have a tendency for a blocked nose in the mornings, and to my amazement, taking this twice daily has eliminated my flu symptoms and allowed me to breathe freely upon waking!

Vitamin D reduces flu risk
Association Between Vitamin D and Influenza: Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Trials.
We explored the potential benefits of vitamin D supplementation for reducing the risk of influenza infections. Through a comprehensive analysis of multiple Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs), we aimed to clarify whether taking vitamin D can help prevent the flu.
Our investigation identified 10 relevant trials that included a total of 4,859 participants. These studies varied in their dosages and duration of vitamin D use, allowing us to assess overall effectiveness across different populations.
The findings were encouraging: our analysis demonstrated that vitamin D supplementation appears to significantly reduce the risk of getting influenza, suggesting that those who increase their vitamin D intake might be better protected during flu season.
Importantly, we did not find significant differences between the studies that could affect our result, and there was no hint of publication bias. Consequently, we can confidently suggest that including vitamin D in our health strategies could enhance our defenses against the flu.

L-Carnosine's role in flu treatment
Non-hydrolyzed in digestive tract and blood natural L-carnosine peptide ("bioactivated Jewish penicillin") as a panacea of tomorrow for various flu ailments: signaling activity attenuating nitric oxide (NO) production, cytostasis, and NO-dependent inhibition of influenza virus replication in macrophages in the human body infected with the virulent swine influenza A (H1N1) virus.
We observed that L-carnosine, a natural peptide, shows promise in addressing influenza A virus infections, particularly the problematic H1N1 strain. This study highlights how L-carnosine can potentially influence the immune response during flu infections, which is crucial given the virus's ability to evade our defenses.
The effects of L-carnosine include the reduction of harmful nitric oxide production and the inhibition of virus replication in infected cells. Essentially, L-carnosine may act as a protective agent against the cellular damage typically caused by the flu virus. By helping to modulate the immune response, it might also aid in reducing symptoms and complications associated with flu infections.
Additionally, the study emphasizes the significance of L-carnosine's non-hydrolyzed forms, which maintain their effectiveness in the digestive tract and bloodstream, making them particularly beneficial for oral supplementation. Products derived from chicken extracts, noted for their high L-carnosine content, could be part of a preventive approach to flu.
Overall, L-carnosine appears to be a strong candidate in flu treatment strategies, especially given its ability to mitigate severe immune responses that can lead to complications in vulnerable populations.

Astragaloside IV lowers H1N1 inflammation
Astragaloside IV attenuates IL-1β secretion by enhancing autophagy in H1N1 infection.
We investigated the effects of astragalus root, specifically a compound known as astragaloside IV (AS-IV), on H1N1 infection, which can cause severe respiratory issues. The key focus was on how AS-IV impacts autophagy, a process cells use to manage inflammation.
In our findings, AS-IV enhanced the formation of autophagosomes, cell structures that help clean up trash within cells, in the context of H1N1 infection. This was significant because H1N1 often leads to an overwhelming release of inflammatory substances, known as a cytokine storm, which can worsen pneumonia symptoms. Surprisingly, while AS-IV didn't impact viral replication or levels of pro-inflammatory proteins, it did significantly lower the secretion of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β), a key inflammatory marker.
Overall, our study suggests that AS-IV could be helpful in reducing harmful inflammation during H1N1 infection, promoting autophagy activation as a potential avenue for treatment. However, it's crucial to note that the research did not isolate AS-IV's effectiveness specifically as a flu treatment. This leaves some questions remaining about its overall impact on flu symptoms.

The results indicated that selenium could have both positive and negative impacts on immunity against the flu vaccine, influenced by the amount and type of selenium consumed. This complexity highlights the need for careful consideration of the benefits and risks associated with selenium supplementation in boosting flu immunity.

Vitamin D3 reduces flu incidence
Randomized trial of vitamin D supplementation to prevent seasonal influenza A in schoolchildren.
We carried out a study to investigate whether vitamin D3 supplements could help prevent seasonal influenza A in schoolchildren. Our approach involved a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial conducted from December 2008 to March 2009.
This ensured that neither the participants nor the researchers knew who was receiving the vitamin D3 or the placebo, making our findings more reliable. During the trial, we provided 1200 IU of vitamin D3 daily to one group while the other received a placebo.
The results were promising; we found that only 10.8% of the children taking vitamin D3 contracted influenza A, compared to 18.6% in the placebo group. This reduced incidence led us to a relative risk of 0.58, suggesting that vitamin D3 supplementation may lower the chances of getting the flu.
Interestingly, we noticed the most significant benefits among children who hadn’t been taking any other vitamin D supplements and those who began nursery school after age three. Additionally, in children with a past asthma diagnosis, vitamin D3 seemed to dramatically reduce asthma attacks.
Overall, our findings indicate that taking vitamin D3 in the winter could be beneficial for schoolchildren, especially for certain groups. We believe this study adds valuable insights into preventive health measures against influenza A.

The results were promising; we found that only 10.8% of the children taking vitamin D3 contracted influenza A, compared to 18.6% in the placebo group. This reduced incidence led us to a relative risk of 0.58, suggesting that vitamin D3 supplementation may lower the chances of getting the flu.
Interestingly, we noticed the most significant benefits among children who hadn’t been taking any other vitamin D supplements and those who began nursery school after age three. Additionally, in children with a past asthma diagnosis, vitamin D3 seemed to dramatically reduce asthma attacks.
Overall, our findings indicate that taking vitamin D3 in the winter could be beneficial for schoolchildren, especially for certain groups. We believe this study adds valuable insights into preventive health measures against influenza A.

This vitamin D supplement is fantastic; it tastes pleasant and my 2-year-old daughter took it well. The size is suitable for children, and with a portion of a gummy daily, I have noticed benefits and improvements in her health. After a series of flu illnesses post-COVID, she no longer required medication when combined with the complex vitamins I bought, including C. Highly recommended!!!

Supports immune health
Most Useful Review
2 people found this helpful
Is this suitable for my child? Vitamin D3 influences the immune system's activity. Adequate vitamin D3 intake can reduce the incidence of acute respiratory infections and flu. With fewer sunny days during colder weather, it's important to obtain this sunlight vitamin from food and supplements. This product contains D3 (cholecalciferol), though the source isn't specified; however, its NSF certificate assures quality. Children aged 4-8 should take 600 IU (15 μg) per drop. Consult a doctor before giving it to younger children. Each bottle has 100 drops. It’s advisable to take one drop in the morning to boost the child's activity. Store it upright in a cool, dark place.

Magic tabletochki!!!! Two years ago, I changed my climate—moving from central Russia to the west. As a result, my immune system began to fail; I was unwell every month, suffering different colds and viruses. I tried echinacea, herbs, and wild rose from the pharmacy with no success. Then, I discovered these magical vitamins. I reduced the recommended dose and stretched a jar for 3 months, starting in January 2015. Since then, I have not been ill, only having a cold for two days. Despite a strong flu epidemic in our town this year, I didn’t even sneeze. I have not found anything better for my immune system. I highly recommend it!

This year at work, many fell ill, suffering from flu symptoms like fever and cough. However, I, being prone to illness, didn’t fall ill at all, despite constant contact with many people! What amazed me was that I didn’t need to take it constantly. As soon as I felt symptoms in the evening, I took two tablets with tea and went to bed early. The next morning I felt as good as new! The simple composition includes vitamin C, lysine, garlic, echinacea, and propolis—none of which has a strong odour. Even antibiotics didn't provide such results!

In September I fell ill with flu, and afterward, my hair began to fall out excessively, and my skin deteriorated.

I haven't observed any results with my nails since I do gel polish, so it's hard to see the difference. I plan to take a break for a couple of months before ordering more.

The beneficial properties of elderberry are diverse: the berries have diaphoretic, astringent, and mild disinfectant effects.

I take elderberries and prepare a decoction, but prefer capsules for convenience as my family does not enjoy it. I trust this company for its natural composition and quality.

I’ve finally found what I was searching for. These supplements don’t require chewing like a tablet or sucking like a hard candy (which I often fear choking on); instead, they dissolve easily in my mouth within a minute. The taste is pleasant enough that I can use them regularly. Due to dysphagia, I can't swallow solid foods, so I rely on these for my daily intake of vitamin C, D, and Zinc, which keep my immune system strong against colds or flu. The price is reasonable, and they taste good enough for me to be consistent. I trust Nature Made products; they are cheaper than the unpleasant-tasting liquid forms my insurance offers. Additionally, they arrived quickly. Excellent quality and ingredients.

Most Useful Review

I wish to provide an honest review of curcumin six months after starting it. I initially ordered this for my dad, who had severe varicose veins, and fortunately, he avoided surgery within a year. I began taking curcumin during COVID-19 to thin my blood, and after four months, I noticed painful heaviness in my legs. I’ve taken curcumin daily since then, and six months later, my blood is so thin that I struggled to stop bleeding from a minor cut. This shows the efficacy of the drug, as no additional blood thinners are necessary for treating COVID. I also give this to my 3-year-old who has a cold and flu, dividing the capsule and mixing it with honey and warm milk. My family solely relies on iHerb, and I believe curcumin is essential for anyone's Ayurvedic medicine cupboard during flu and cold seasons.

Initially, I had low expectations for this omega supplement, especially after experiencing hair loss and dry skin post-childbirth. Taking these capsules with enzymes has transformed my experience! The dryness, especially on my legs, had persisted all my life, yet after just three days of use, I stopped using creams as my skin became remarkably moist. Adding vitamin D and iron has also improved my hair growth, revitalising my desire to live and work. I am genuinely delighted with the results!

Improved migraine relief
Most Useful Review
GREAT It normalises sleep with regular intake of 2 capsules. It significantly improves my migraines; I take the pills as usual, and when special effects begin, I add extra magnesium and the migraine dissipates in a couple of hours. The frequency of migraines has decreased, but I also have drug support. With regular magnesium intake, PMS and periods are much easier, and I experience fewer emotional outbursts. Chronic pain in my nasopharynx is less problematic, though I cannot attribute this solely to magnesium, as I also take omega-3 and other supplements. This has the potential to be effective. No allergies or stomach problems occurred. The quality is excellent, with natural ingredients, and it definitely has a positive influence on health.

My husband takes one a day during cold and flu season as a preventive measure, but my doctor advised me to only take it when I feel a cold coming on, as it can affect the thyroid, which is worth noting for anyone with thyroid issues.

Evaluation after 30 days of use: I always use the product for 30 days to give an honest review. During these times of COVID and other respiratory illnesses, good supplementation is essential to help our bodies remain strong. Vitamin D3 is vital in this process of preparing the body to resist viruses. I did catch a slight flu, but I experienced no strong symptoms, all thanks to the vitamin D! NOW is an excellent brand with quality ingredients, small capsule size, ideal dosage, and a compact package. Vitamin D should be supplemented with Vitamin K2 (Mk-7) because K2 ensures calcium is allocated properly in our bodies. Therefore, I believe this product is an excellent purchase!

I have suffered from atopic dermatitis for years. Despite steroid creams, the itching and redness persisted. I then learned about Niacin Flash Free, which helps break down histamine, a trigger for atopic dermatitis. I feel slight itches occasionally, but they're manageable. After taking one tablet twice daily for about a month, my symptoms have markedly improved, leading to greater confidence in wearing black clothes. I believe Niacin Flash Free effectively reduces my atopic dermatitis symptoms.

For years, I struggled to take full breaths until a doctor recommended nattokinase and serrapeptase for my chronic illness.

I consume it with unsweetened milk tea to avoid niacin flush. The smell and taste, along with the colour and small size, make me look forward to taking a tablet daily. I also hope it aids my metabolism.

Very useful for influenza. I have repurchased this numerous times. My boyfriend recovered swiftly from the flu after taking it for just 1-2 days. Without it, he would have been ill for a week. I also introduced this supplement to a friend whose family was infected; it proved very effective. Purple Daisy has become a staple in my home.

5 HTP is known to be a precursor of serotonin, associated with well-being. It has properties that help with depression, anxiety reduction, appetite control, and sleep. A rich source of serotonin, it alleviates depressive symptoms. Serotonin also helps balance mood and tension. Anxiety can often stem from Serotonin Deficiency Syndrome (SDS), where below-normal serotonin levels disrupt mood and appetite regulation. Overall, this supplement looks promising for mood enhancement and anxiety alleviation.

D-Mannose is truly effective for alleviating UTI issues.

I take curcumin regularly and have managed to avoid illness during the fall-winter. I often give it to relatives at the first signs of sickness, and, combined with my wellness formula, it can make the flu resolve overnight. I'm confident it could assist with coronavirus too.

Excellent for rapid recovery from a cold or flu! When used with Whole European Elder Flowers, it maintains a pleasant taste. It offers similar benefits to syrup but is sugar-free!

A wonderful product! I experienced significant swelling postpartum and couldn't lose weight despite not overeating. It turned out there was excessive fluid in my body. This potassium helped eliminate that fluid, making me feel lighter and aiding in decent weight loss.

Cold Calm has been my go-to for over 10 years! I don't leave home without it, as I never know when I'll need it! I take it at the first sign of cold or flu symptoms, and the sooner I take it, the faster those symptoms vanish—sometimes right after the first dose! I can genuinely say I haven’t had a cold or flu since I started using Cold Calm! I'm pleased to see that iHerb stocks it!

Excellent health benefits
Most Useful Review
11 people found this helpful
Honestly, it's very, very excellent. I took it for reflux esophagus, as recommended by Dr. Berg and Karim Ali. After using it, I noticed my symptoms lessened, and the fatigue I was feeling vanished. The quality is excellent, with organic ingredients in plentiful supply for three months. The folic acid works well and responds nicely to the influx of niacin. The packaging is sealed, and the product's effects were noticeable from the first day. It's also crucial for the nervous system and metabolism, with a taste typical of B vitamins. It's excellent for anyone.

Autoimmune support
Most Useful Review
I ordered this for my dog, who has an autoimmune condition (SLO) and lost all her nails two years ago. A dog therapist recommended low doses of niacin. Now, with the 250mg no-flush niacin, my dog seems comfortable. She takes one daily with her other medication, and her nails have returned, indicating it works well.
No flushing

My husband enjoys feeling the flush, but I do not. So, I ordered this flush-free niacin for myself, and indeed, I hardly notice any flush effect. Excellent!

Heals wounds
Most Useful Review
9 people found this helpful
I recommend it for reflux esophagitis; I ordered it for my mother, who suffers from this condition. After acid emissions, wounds appear in the stomach and esophagus, and this product heals them well. I took two capsules three times a day; they are small and easy to swallow. When diluted with water, a jelly-like mucus forms that covers and heals the wounds. After a few days, I felt significant relief.
Good for reflux
Most Useful Review

It's slippery, alright... I wasn’t finding relief from OTC heartburn medication until I discovered slippery elm, which I'm thankful for. I've been taking the capsules and making a gruel/tea for three weeks and feel so much better. I drink the gruel in the mornings and evenings before bed to aid with acidic reflux, which it does effectively. You can add cinnamon and honey to the tea for flavour, and it has a pleasant maple scent. I also take the capsules between meals and find it helps soften my stool. I’ll continue using it.

Reduced discomfort

This product effectively reduces inflammation! The flu has been severe recently. I occasionally have throat discomfort, especially after spicy meals. Taking the pill before bed provides me relief by the next day. It combats oxidation and removes free radicals without any strange taste. I've always found the quality of the Doctor Best brand to be excellent, and I’ll continue repurchasing it.

Sleep improvement
Most Useful Review
1 people found this helpful
Niacin has completely cured my sleep disorder and depression. After taking sleeping pills for over a decade, I can now sleep easily anywhere. I continue taking niacin even though I feel much better and rarely experience niacin flush. It's best taken after meals to avoid worsening flush symptoms. With only 1-2 tablets daily, it lasts for months, making it excellent value for money. My skin also seems clearer.
Effective flush

Solid niacin flush. Both the price and the content are excellent. It flushes effectively, and after two weeks of taking, the flush has diminished. It seems to release histamine. Wonderful!
