Targeted immune support—right when you need it

When seasonal challenges pop up, Viracid brings together key nutrients and time‑honored botanicals to support a healthy immune response.
The formula includes vitamins A and C, zinc, and L‑lysine alongside elderberry, andrographis, astragalus, and echinacea—designed to bolster immune cell activity and help keep you feeling your best.

Why We Like It

  • Well‑rounded formula that supports both rapid and ongoing immune needs.
  • Botanicals are standardized (e.g., elderberry 13% anthocyanins; andrographis 30% andrographolides) for consistent potency.
  • Simple directions: load when you need extra support; maintain with a daily dose.

Key Benefits

  • Provides focused support during immune challenges.
  • Strengthens innate and adaptive immune function.
  • Helps maintain a healthy inflammatory balance.

What’s Inside

  • Vitamin A — supports healthy mucous membranes and antibody response.
  • Vitamin C — antioxidant support that helps maintain normal immune cell activity.
  • Zinc (bisglycinate chelate) — essential for immune signaling and NK cell function.
  • L‑Lysine — essential amino acid that supports immune defenses.
  • Elderberry (Sambucus nigra) — standardized for anthocyanins; traditionally used for upper‑respiratory support.
  • Andrographis paniculata — standardized for andrographolides; researched for symptom relief during URIs.
  • Astragalus membranaceus — classic immune botanical used to support healthy immune resilience.
  • Echinacea purpurea — supports multiple aspects of immune function.

Lifestyle Tips

During peak season, wash hands frequently, stay hydrated, and aim for 7–9 hours of sleep. If you feel run‑down, consider the “load then maintain” approach with Viracid, and pair it with simple habits like a daily walk and a fiber‑rich plate to support a resilient immune system.
