Cold & Flu Season Immune Support Cold and flu season can put extra stress on the body, especially when we are tired, run down, traveling, under stress, or surrounded by sick people. This protocol is designed to give your immune system additional nutritional, botanical, and gut support during the months when respiratory infections are more common. We are using several different forms of support because the immune system is not just one thing. It involves your gut, respiratory tract, antioxidant defenses, immune cells, and your body's ability to respond appropriately to viral exposure. What’s Included Vitamin C Vitamin C supports normal immune-cell function and provides antioxidant protection during times of increased physical stress. We use it as a simple foundational nutrient during cold and flu season. American Ginseng American ginseng is traditionally used to support immune resilience, energy, and the body's ability to adapt to stress. It can be especially helpful during periods when you feel more depleted or susceptible to getting sick. Zinc + Elderberry Lozenges This is our more targeted, short-term support. Zinc plays an important role in normal immune function, and research suggests zinc lozenges may help shorten the duration of a common cold when started early. That is why we recommend this product for a limited period rather than for continuous use. Probiotics A large part of the immune system communicates with the gastrointestinal tract. Supporting a healthy microbiome helps support normal immune regulation and resilience. We have included both an adult immune-support probiotic and a children's probiotic so the protocol can be adapted appropriately for different members of the family. Echinacea Echinacea is a traditional immune-support herb that we use during periods of increased exposure or at the first signs that the immune system may be working harder. How We Think About This Protocol The goal is not to "boost" the immune system as aggressively as possible. The goal is to support a healthy, intelligent immune response and provide the body with the nutritional resources it needs during a more challenging season. Think of it in two parts: Daily seasonal support: Vitamin C, probiotics, and selected immune-support nutrients help create a stronger nutritional foundation. Early-response support: Zinc, elderberry, echinacea, and other targeted products can be introduced when you have increased exposure or when you first begin to feel run down. And don't forget the basics. Sleep, hydration, protein, nutritious food, movement, stress reduction, and adequate recovery remain among the most important factors in maintaining healthy immune function. This protocol is intended for general wellness and immune support and is not a treatment for influenza, COVID-19, or other infections. If you develop significant symptoms, difficulty breathing, persistent high fever, dehydration, chest pain, or symptoms that are worsening rather than improving, please contact your healthcare provider.

DVC Daily Essentials

A strong nutrition foundation does not need to be complicated. This short plan focuses on the most common nutrient gaps that support energy, inflammation balance, bone health, brain function, and recovery. Why this matters Even people who try to eat well can still fall short due to stress, processed foods, busy schedules, lower nutrient density in modern diets, and individual differences in nutrient absorption. The goal is not to take dozens of pills. The goal is to cover the basics consistently.
