How CBD Works to build your The Immune System
One of the principle roles of CBD is regulating the immune system through the gut. CBD activates transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2), a protein that facilitates the communication of cells with their extracellular environment and plays an important role in healthy immune system function.3 CBD also influences other transient receptor potential (TRP) channels involved in supporting immunity.
Hemp derived CBD supports immune health by:
- Increasing Natural Killer Cells
- NK cells are a major player in the body’s response to the presence of viruses. NK cells are the ones that attack a virus or infection once it has entered the cell membrane.
- CBD helps reduce lung damage from cytokine storms by increasing levels of protective peptide
- One way CBD reduces the "cytokine storm" that damage the lungs is by enabling an increase in levels of a natural peptide called apelin, which is known to reduce inflammation. Apelin levels are dramatically reduced during a cytokine storm.
- Supporting a Healthy Inflammatory Response
- CBD enhances markers of healthy lungs such as decreased total lung resistance and elastance.
- Maintaining a Healthy Gut Microbiota
- Like endogenous cannabinoids, CBD also has been found to support a healthy intestinal inflammatory response in human trials.
Vitamin D has long been studied for its role In enhancing the function of immune cells that protect your body against pathogens by protecting against cytokine storms by increasing natural killer cell (NK cells) activity. Multiple studies have shown that vitamin D deficiency can harm immune function and increase your risk of developing respiratory illnesses. Additionally, some studies have indicated that vitamin D supplements can enhance immune response and protect against respiratory infections overall.
Curcumin C3® (with Bioperine®) Beneficial Effects of Curcuminoids
- Curcuminoids support a healthy immune system.
- Curcumin C3® is an effective bioprotectant antioxidant quenching free radicals and also preventing their formation.
- Curcumin prevents connective tissue break down through inhibiting destructive enzymes.
Zinc Oxide
- Zinc boosts immune function and fights inflammation.
- Zinc may also act as an antioxidant, reducing inflammation and protecting against chronic conditions like heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.
- some evidence suggests that taking zinc could even prevent symptoms and shorten the duration of certain respiratory tract infections
