My "Go To" Supplements to Boost Your Immune System

When counseling my own patients about taking the right supplements to boost immunity, which has become an even more important topic since the rise of Covid-19, these are what I tell them are my own "go to" supplements. Vitamin C: I recommend 1-2 grams per day for most of my patients in my practice as this

vitamin helps to repair tissue, heal skin, boost immunity and maintain normal cell function. Vitamin D: It is often forgotten vitamin D is actually a hormone and not really a vitamin at all. Vitamin D, as with all hormones, is helpful for many functions and works as a signaling molecule to cells. Vitamin D assists with respiratory health and immunity.
