What we have thought about
Nature offers us potent substances - for example, polyphenols. A polyphenol-rich diet (e.g. walnuts, green tea, green vegetables, blueberries, etc.) can also have a positive effect on our metabolism and immune system.
A subgroup of polyphenols are the so-called flavonoids, which are yellow plant pigments produced by the plant to protect it or its flowers and leaves from harmful influences.
Our preparation combines 4 different flavonoids to achieve optimal effect: quercetin, rutin, luteolin and genistein.
The whole is supplemented by PEA (palmitoylethanolamide). This is a fatty acid amide.
It is important to know that the botanicals used are not useful for people with salicylate intolerance.
You probably already know that vitamin D is important for our bones and sufficient calcium absorption from the intestines. Less known is the particularly balancing role of vitamin D in the immune system: without sufficient vitamin D in the body, mast cells activate "automatically". Thus, vitamin D contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system.
Mast cells are white blood cells located in the tissues of our body. In the mast cells there are numerous small granules filled with messenger substances - e.g. histamine, heparin, prostaglandins etc.. When a mast cell is activated, the so-called degranulation occurs, i.e. the stored messenger substances (approx. 200 different) are released.

What else can I do for a good immune system?
The basic prerequisite is, of course, that you give your body all the nutrients it needs - especially the proteins and essential amino acids as well as the anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids (mainly found in fatty fish) are particularly important building blocks for many enzymes and new cells. So try to eat as balanced and varied a diet as possible - especially unprocessed foods, lots of vegetables, grains, nuts and seeds. This also supports the development of a healthy intestinal flora - and health often starts in the intestine!
Try to avoid alcohol as much as possible - it can have an immunosuppressive effect and changes your gut flora.
Often our immune system gets out of balance when our body is stressed - this can be a mental strain, physical overload or an infection. It is not always possible to quickly change this stress. Breathing exercises and yoga as well as endurance sports can help reduce the body's stress response. Regular breaks and downtime are just as important - try setting your mobile phone alarm every 1-2h, getting up from your desk and taking a few steps.
Many patients with mast cell activation syndrome can additionally pay attention to mast cell liberators in their diet. The following list gives you an overview:
