Can You Guess the #1 Nutrient for Immunity?

Can You Guess the #1 Nutrient for Immunity?

There are many reasons to protect yourself right now.   We are still learning about Omicron but it seems likely to spread. And this might be a tough flu season.

So what nutrient is most important --#1-- for immunity?   Protein.

You can’t make an antibody out of carbs, fat, zinc, or vitamin C. The only nutrient you can make antibodies with is protein. A range of immune functions require the amino acids in protein and Leucine is particularly important. [1]  The protein in UNJURY® is an unsurpassed source of leucine. 

Arm your immunity with the #1 Immunity Nutrient: Protein.

AND remember that good nutrition overall is important…in the right amounts.   The zinc in a multivitamin is beneficial.  A very high dose of zinc can be counterproductive.   So get a good  multivitamin such as Opurity® and get plenty of high quality protein.
