Immunity Assist Total
Food supplement of Cordyceps sinensis mycelium, Betaglucans extracted from mushrooms and Green Tea extract.
Properties
Rich in immunomodulatory polysaccharides extracted from various species of food mushrooms, Immunity-assist total is useful for supporting and modulating the immune system of adults and children. Thanks to the presence of Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a polyphenolic component with antioxidant action, Immunity-assist total can be used to promote the body’s natural defenses and above all to support the body in the event of infections, proving useful in any situation in which the immune system is somehow weakened.
