Supports the immune system: Whether we like it or not, our environment is full of pathogenic microorganisms that need to get inside the host body in order to multiply. IMMUNO-BOX™ Mushroom Synergy helps to deal with that issue. Mushroom extracts contained in this composition are able to inhibit the growth of certain pathogens, such as viruses that cause respiratory tract infections and the herpes virus. Results of research studies have shown that some of these mushrooms damage genetic material of viruses and prevent them from multiplying. They also stimulate natural defense mechanisms of the body by improving the number and activity of white blood cells, which can be considered an army that fights microbes. Moreover, they intensify the production of interferons – compounds that provide sort of a homing system for lymphocytes as they help to locate infections and boost the secretion of antibodies. The ingredients of this composition have also been found to stimulate the activity of macrophages that release cytokines – a source of information for other cells of the immune system about measures necessary to take. In addition to that, macrophages devour bacteria and viruses that have attacked the body. Mushroom extracts contained in this formula stimulate the activity of NK cells whose role is to identify and eliminate abnormal cells, including those related to cancer. Some of these ingredients include compounds with prebiotic effects. In short, they help to keep the intestinal microbiota in a good condition, which is actually an important part of a barrier preventing microscopic intruders from entering one’s organism. All these properties make our formula a decent help in fighting threats that occur internally as well as externally.

Improves the condition of the circulatory system: Leukocytes are able to move through the body thanks to a complex network of blood vessels. This is one of the reasons why this structure should be kept in the best possible condition. The ingredients of our formula definitely help with that. Primarily, they support the prevention of atherosclerosis. In the course of this disease, cholesterol deposits (called plaques) are formed in the walls of veins and arteries. Over time, they can significantly restrict blood flow and even completely close the lumen of blood vessels. The ingredients of this composition decrease the absorption of fats from food and change the metabolism of phospholipids in the liver. They also accelerate the breakdown of cholesterol. Thus, they reduce its level in blood and change the proportions between its types, favoring the “good” one – HDL. This way, they prevent the formation of atherosclerotic plaques and allow blood to flow more easily through the vessels. These mushroom extracts help to control blood pressure and prevent development of clots. In effect, they help to maintain the cardiovascular system in a good shape, which in turn positively affects the entire body.

Supports the nervous system: The beneficial effects of our composition, of course, do not stop at the blood-brain barrier. The mushrooms contained in this formula can have a positive influence on the central nervous system. Primarily, they stimulate neurogenesis and neuroplasticity – two important mechanisms that lead to production of new nerve cells and formation of connections between them. They also facilitate the process of myelination. Myelin sheaths nourish axons, protect them from damage and regulate the transmission of nerve impulses. Because of that, information acquisition as well as brain regeneration can occur more efficiently. The ingredients of IMMUNO-BOX™ Mushroom Synergy support cognitive abilities in other ways too. They improve the activity of an enzyme involved in the production of acetylcholine and inhibit the activity of the one that catalyzes its breakdown. Acetylcholine is a key neurotransmitter crucial for proper information processing and memory as well as attention abilities. In simple terms, when the brain is able to utilize greater amounts of this compound, it can work more intensively. In addition to that, mushroom extracts of our formula intensify the activity of GABA – a brain chemical responsible for stabilizing our focus and stress resilience. They also protect the nervous system from the harmful influence of beta-amyloid whose deposits are one of the factors increasing the risk of Alzheimer’s disease. All in all, this composition of mushrooms can bring benefits for intellectual performance.

Supports detoxification: The liver and kidneys are very important in terms of cleansing the body. Their main purpose is to remove harmful substances and redundant metabolic waste. Providing support for their proper functioning is certainly a great way to maintain the good condition of the whole organism. Mushroom extracts contained in our formula have a beneficial influence on both these organs. In particular, they protect the liver from damage due to various toxins (including heavy metals), viral infections and inflammation. They also reduce the accumulation of lipids within this organ, thus counteracting its steatosis. Besides that, they help to remove free radicals that could damage cellular structures, such as DNA or mitochondria. These ingredients contain multiple compounds that neutralize reactive oxygen species, including superoxide radicals and other products of metabolism. They also stimulate natural defense mechanisms of the body by intensifying production of endogenous antioxidants. That way, our composition helps to cleanse the body not only from pathogenic microorganisms, but also from unnecessary or toxic substances.
