Immune Health

Several ingredients found in nature can support a healthy immune response and can be key ingredients for dietary supplements, as well as functional foods and beverages. Immune health support includes powerful antioxidants known to quench oxidative stress or inflammation that can lead to compromised health.

An antioxidant with a powerful punchÏ®

Taxifolin, also known as dihydroquercetin (DHQ), is found in apples, onions, milk thistle, and certain trees and is a super antioxidant bioflavonoid with free radical fighting and anti-inflammatory properties.
