Vita-Kids™ Immune provides children with important nutrients to strengthen their immune system, in a natural liquid with a delicious grape flavor.
Free radicals are unstable compounds formed in the body during metabolism and exposure to environmental sources such as pollution and cigarette smoke. Free radicals are necessary for energy metabolism and immune function, but when an excessive number of free radicals are formed, they can attack healthy cells, especially the lipids and proteins in their membranes. This, in turn, is thought to affect a number of bodily processes, including the optimal functioning of the immune system. Elderberry and blueberry extracts provide anthocyanins, important antioxidants that protect healthy cells from oxidative and free radical damage.
Numerous studies have demonstrated the importance of beta-carotene in ensuring normal immune function. The beneficial effects of beta-carotene on the immune system are due to its role as a precursor of vitamin A, which stimulates the production of immune cells.
Zinc is an essential trace element involved in most important metabolic pathways. Several other studies also confirm the fundamental role of zinc in promoting normal immune responses in humans. Immune cells must be able to divide rapidly in order to respond to daily challenges, and they depend on adequate amounts of dietary zinc to support their development. Healthy immune function can also be maintained by promoting well-balanced cytokine production, but low zinc levels result in decreased immune responses, including reduced production of cytokines that target intracellular bacteria.
