Jarro-Dophilus® EPS
Clinically Documented Digestive Probiotic
I selected these products for our immunity bundle due to their roles in supporting the body's natural defenses and immune function but are often lacking in the diet, thereby warranting dietary supplementation. Vitamins C and D, as well as Zinc, all play essential roles in a healthy immune response, yet many Americans consume less than recommended and/or have below optimal body levels to adequately support immunity.

Zinc Balance
Â
- Essential for highly proliferating (multiplying) cells, especially immune cells during an immune response
- Supports the maintenance of skin and mucosal barrier integrity (important innate defense)
- Required in conjunction with copper as essential cofactors of the enzyme superoxide dismutase that participates in the defense against oxidative stress
- Supports various aspects of immune function including the production of inflammatory mediators, immune cells functions/activities, and antibody production
- Balanced formula providing synergistic combination of non-excessive amounts of zinc plus copper since high zinc intakes can induce copper deficiency, which can impair immune functions and antioxidant defenses
Vitamin D3
Â
- Vitamin D signaling supports the activity of innate immune cells to combat various microbes encountered
- Vitamin D signaling stimulates the production of peptides by innate immune and mucosal epithelial cells that participate in the body’s defenses to support health of the lungs and the respiratory, gastrointestinal, and urogenital tracts
- Vitamin D signaling modulates the expression of various inflammatory mediators to balance immune responses
- Vitamin D status is often lower during winter months and is influenced by various external factors
Vitamin C
Â
- Highly concentrated in white blood (immune) cells and used rapidly during infection (blood levels also rapidly fall with the onset of infection)
- May help protect immune cells against oxidative stress, in conjunction with other cellular antioxidant defenses, during an immune response that can compromise immune cell function
- Supports the survival, replication, and functions of adaptive immune cells (T- and B-cells) as well as the production of antibodies
- The body’s need for vitamin C is enhanced in the context of chronic conditions characterized by oxidative stress that are associated with aging and various lifestyle factors (e.g., diet, physical activity, sleep, smoking, pollution)
Jarro-Dophilus EPS
Â
- Probiotics can modulate immune function by interacting with various gut epithelial and immune cells as well as microbes within the gut lumen (competing for nutrients and receptor binding, modifying activities)
- Supports beneficial balance of microbes in the gut and intestinal barrier function (important innate defense)
- Provides multiple probiotics strains shown to support various aspects of immune function and modulate the production of inflammatory mediators in either preclinical and/or clinical research
