USANA Booster C 600™ (28 Packets/Box)

Sometimes our immune system simply needs a boost. Stress, traveling, and busy schedules can leave us feeling run down and less than our best. USANA’s Booster C 600 supplies a powerful blend of ingredients shown to support immune defenses in those times when we need to stay healthy. The delectable, lemon-berry flavored powder can be taken straight or mixed with water for an immune boost anytime, anywhere.

POLY C© AND ZINC DEFEND THE CELLS
Deficiency in vitamin C or zinc, which is needed for normal development and function of many white blood cells, may make individuals more susceptible to impaired immune response. Healthy adults generally need at least 75–90 mg of vitamin C and 8–11 mg of zinc per day to avoid severe deficiency.

In addition to delivering 10 mg of zinc, Booster C 600 is a high potency source of 600 mg vitamin C. An essential, water-soluble nutrient that our body cannot produce on its own, vitamin C must be obtained from the diet. It supports white blood cell production and is maintained in cells to protect against oxidative stress, which is important for maintaining cellular integrity and proper function. Vitamin C also helps regenerate vitamin E, which is another nutrient important for healthy immunity. Booster C 600 includes a unique combination of ascorbic acid, sodium ascorbate, and USANA’s proprietary Poly C®, which has been shown to provide higher and longer-lasting levels of vitamin C in the blood.

ECHINACEA AND ELDERBERRY FOR EXTRA IMMUNITY SUPPORT
People have used the herb Echinacea throughout history to support the immune system. Several laboratory and animal studies suggest that Echinacea contains active substances that enhance the activity of the immune system, including polysaccharides, glycoproteins, alkamides, volatile oils, and flavonoids. With short-term use, Echinacea purpurea extract has been shown to naturally support a healthy immune system. It is recommended that Echinacea only be used only for short periods, generally two weeks or less. Elderberry is another herb long used for its beneficial effect on the immune system. Elderberries contain more anthocyanins—a type of flavonoid—than blueberries. As antioxidants, anthocyanins help protect healthy cells, and support the production of cytokines to regulate immune responses.

WHY BOOSTER C 600™?
Staying healthy is vital to performing at our best every day. Many immune health products contain vitamin C, but only Booster C 600 contains USANA’s proprietary Poly C vitamin C blend to deliver stronger, longer-acting antioxidant defense. Blended with a high-quality, effective form of Echinacea, plus zinc and elderberry, Booster C 600 provides a perfect, portable solution for giving our immune system a little added support when we need it.
