The holiday season is a whirlwind of joy and celebration, but it's also a time when colds and viruses lurk around every corner. Staying healthy and vibrant is essential to fully enjoy this festive season. Let’s explore effective strategies to support your immune system, beginning with the powerhouse of Vitamin C and venturing into other helpful methods.  

One of the most nourishing ways to support your immune system is by eating a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables. And as the temps get colder don’t forget about regular physical activity. We’re here to also remind you that proper sleep helps build a strong foundation for a strong immune system. But what else can you do? 

Looking for another way to strengthen your immune system?  

Charlotte's Web™ Immunity Gummies are made with natural ingredients to help support immunity. These gummies are formulated with full-spectrum hemp extract, Astragalus, vitamin C, and vegan vitamin D3. This blend works together to support the immune system and your overall wellness.  

Let’s look at why these vitamins and botanicals are perfect for supporting the immune system. 

Astragalus  

Astragalus (Astragalus membranaceus) has been used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine in combination with other herbs. It has been promoted as a dietary supplement for many conditions, including to support the immune system. Scientific studies indicate that Astragalus supports "promoting the proliferation of immune cells."  

Vitamin C   

We source our vitamin C from Acerola (Malpighia emarginata DC.) for one specific reason. It is one of the richest natural sources of ascorbic acid and contains a plethora of phytonutrients. It has been reported that the vitamin C of acerola is better absorbed by human beings than synthetic ascorbic acid. Scientific consensus shows that "Vitamin C is involved in the body's immune system by stimulating the activity of white blood cells."  

Vitamin D3  

Scientific literature says that "the beneficial effects of vitamin D on protective immunity are due in part to its effects on the innate immune system." Simply stated, vitamin D supports the function of the immune system. Why D3? There are two forms of vitamin D available for supplements: vitamin D3 and vitamin D2. Most doctors recommend D3 because it is slightly more active and therefore slightly more effective.  

Full-spectrum hemp extract 

Full-spectrum hemp extract contains cannabinoids plus terpenes and flavonoids. We use extract from our genetically patented plants organically grown in the U.S.A. One of the most popular cannabinoids in our extract is CBD. CBD stands for cannabidiol. CBD works synergistically with your endocannabinoid system (ECS), which plays a crucial role in regulating various bodily functions. When you incorporate CBD into your routine, it interacts with your ECS, helping to maintain balance and wellness throughout your body.  

Some of the main benefits of CBD that are backed by science are as follows:   

• CBD supports a sense of calm for focus.    
• CBD helps manage everyday stress and occasional anxiety.    
• CBD helps in recovery from exercise-induced inflammation.    
• CBD provides support for healthy sleep cycles.*    

For those on the go, our immunity gummies offer a simple and effective way to support your immune system.  

The holiday season should be a time of joy. If you get regular exercise, rest and eat healthy, and take quality supplements, you will be well-equipped to enjoy this festive time in full health and spirits. Remember, a strong immune system is key for an uninterrupted season of holiday cheer!
