Works for symptoms
3 people found this helpful
Quick Defense works! I recently tried Gaia Herbs Quick Defense and saw fantastic results. I took it for two days (40 capsules) to combat particularly strong viral symptoms (cold/flu-like). By the third day, I felt perfectly fine. I have previously used Gaia Herbs echinacea to counter early virus symptoms, but Quick Defense was significantly more effective. I’ll keep it on hand.

Wonders for cold
2 people found this helpful
This is the remedy I use as soon as I suspect I've got cold symptoms. This supplement works wonders. My initial experience was waking with sneezing and a terrible runny nose. I took it as directed, drank a lot, and the next day woke up clear-headed—no sneezing, no stuffy nose, absolutely NO signs of illness!

Effective during illness

I bought this as a trial and was pleased. I didn't really need it but thought it might be useful if I felt unwell. Upon trying it, I noticed my body felt warmer; even when I measured my temperature, it was normal. I believe my blood flow improved. A week later, when I had cold-like symptoms with a fever of 38 degrees, taking this capsule every five hours made the fever and other symptoms disappear by the next morning.

Good for initial symptoms

It helps with the first symptoms of a cold. I ordered it in stock. Sometimes, taking the capsules for just one day is sufficient for the effect.

I truly love this brand. I’ve tried this supplement once; while I didn't escape the cold entirely, it was milder than usual.

Arrests cold progression
1 people found this helpful
I recommend keeping a bottle for "emergencies". Take this at the first signs of a cough or cold and follow the dosage closely. It helps to halt the progress of the cough and cold quickly. Additionally, taking other steps like liposomal C and good quality honey is beneficial. The capsule size is manageable.
