Our Favorite Immune Support Tool

Congaplex Immune Support

Professionals of every kind have their favorite go-to tools for handling common problems. Let's take a look at one of our favorite tools for immune system support and upper respiratory challenges.

​Congaplex: Go-to Immune Support

Congaplex is one of our favorite answers when patients ask about what to do for stuffy sinuses, coughing, sneezing, and the other fun than comes with upper respiratory challenges. We especially keep it handy around our houses during the winter when those problems hit the hardest. 

Conga - plex can be thought of as a complex of whole food nutrients that fight congestion and support the immune system.

Congaplex is actually a specially formulated blend of other Standard Process supplements:

• Cataplex A-C includes whole food vitamins A and C, which support healthy mucous membranes (our first defense against microbial invaders) and immune system resistance. This is NOT synthetic vitamin C (ascorbic acid), which is only the wrapper around the whole vitamin C complex. It also includes Echinacea which helps modulate a healthy immune response.
• Thymex includes thymus enzyme extract that helps support the thymus, a key gland that produces antibodies to fight infection.
• Calcium Lactate is a very absorbable form of calcium, which plays an important role in phagocytosis ("eating") of microbes.
• Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) involved in protein building.

We have found it to be a great choice and kids especially like the Congaplex chewable version that includes berry powder. We use it in lower doses for prevention or higher doses when fighting off a bug. 

Check out some of the good foods inside: bovine thymus extract, carrot root, bovine bone, nutritional yeast, wheat germ, bovine adrenal, alfalfa juice, oat flour, alfalfa flour, bovine kidney, veal bone, veal bone extract, mushroom, buckwheat leaf juice, buckwheat seed, peanut bran, soybean lecithin, carrot oil.

You could try Congaplex or eat all of these!
