While antibiotics have undoubtedly saved many lives there is increasing concern about their safety. Recent research suggests that long-term use of these drugs may raise the risk of bowel cancer, for example, while taking them during pregnancy is known to be linked to a higher risk of children subsequently developing severe infections. Even low use of antibiotics has been shown to have a negative effect on a child’s health.

In contrast to the dangers of antibiotics, an optimum supply of essential micronutrients supports the body’s immune system safely and naturally. While many people take only vitamin C for such purposes, such an approach misses out on the important benefits of micronutrient synergy. Vitamin C works more efficiently when combined with other micronutrients such as zinc, quercetin and selenium. Thus, the effectiveness of supplements in improving immunity depends upon them containing a carefully designed synergistic combination of micronutrients to help generate healthy blood cells and support other immune system organs.
