ViraCare by Patient One ViraCare by Patient One

Herbal blend to stimulate immune system response and provide fast-acting, short-term support for upper respiratory health

• Boosts immune system performance
• Supports temperature regulation and respiratory health
• Modulates the bodys inflammatory response
• Supports production and performance of leukocytes
• Encourages adaptive response to environmental stress

Unique Properties
Patient One ViraCare supplies standardized extract of andrographis, a cornerstone tonic herb of both Traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic wellness traditions. With flavonoids and andrographolides as primary active constituents, andrographis modulates inflammation and mediates both nonspecific and antigen-specific immune responses – optimizing immune system performance.

Standardized extracts of echinacea, eluthero and holy basil supply additional immune-supportive polysaccharides, flavonoids and alkaloids. The immune boosting agents in this herbal formula are recommended for short-term natural support when the body is challenged by stress and respiratory issues.

Key Ingredients

Andrographis
Andrographis paniculata supplies flavonoids and andrographolides, bitter compounds that support immune health and normal inflammatory responses. Andrographolides activate the natural creation of antibodies and macrophages, promoting the body’s resistance against a variety of bacteria, microbes and pathogens. Andrographolides also optimize production of and promote performance of leukocytes, supporting their ability to recognize and eliminate pathogens. Andrographis optimizes the immune system, both the initial defense of the nonspecific immune response and the secondary antigen-specific response.

Botanical Complex
Patient One Andrographis Immune Complex reinforces andrographis with standardized extracts of traditional immune-supportive herbs.

Eluthero is a well studied adaptogenic herb that protects the body and enhances its various systems against the ill effects of any type of stress. It increases interferon production and thus displays antiviral properties. The use of eleuthero root dates back 2, 000 years, when it was used for its immune-enhancing effects to defend against respiratory tract infections, colds, and the flu.

Echinacea, a perennial herb native to the midwestern region of North America, supplies antioxidant phenols and supports overall immune health. According to evidence found by archaeologists, Native Americans may have used echinacea for more than 400 years to treat infections and wounds. While this herb was popular during the 18th and 19th centuries, its use began to decline following the introduction of antibiotics. In Germany today, Echinacea purpurea is used to treat colds, upper respiratory tract infections and flu-like infections.

Holy basil, formally named Ocimum sanctum and also known as Tulsi, is a versatile adaptogen that features high antioxidant activity and immunomodulatory properties. The extract from leaves has shown anti-asthmatic activity and antimicrobial properties as well as the ability to reduce histamine. Holy basil was used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine to treat coughs, asthma and bronchitis as well as coughs due to colds and flu.

Research

• One British meta-analysis that drew on 7 controlled, double-blind trials with nearly 900 combined subjects examined the effectiveness of andrographis in the treatment of upper respiratory problems. The results indicated that andrographis performed better than placebo in minimizing upper respiratory tract symptoms. Researchers suggested that in addition to mitigating symptoms, andrographis may hold potential in warding off the onset of upper respiratory issues.
