Immune Modulating Supplements
Immune modulating supplements either suppress or stimulate the immune system
Specific conditions they may influence can include autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease and Crohn's disease; allergies; and persistent viral infections.
Immune stimulators & anti-microbials
Natural supplements can stimulate a stronger immune response or support the immune system in carry out its normal functions. Garlic is both an immune stimulant and germ-killer that attacks bacteria, viruses and yeasts. Probiotics support the immune system directly and indirectly, helping it react in a balanced way without getting out of control. Zinc supports and strengthens a balanced immune response.
Allergy Balance
Supplements which can help balance allergic responses include NAC and Quercetin.
Autoimmune conditions
Those with autoimmune diseases need to balance the immune response rather than stimulate it. Look for supplements that increase immune tolerance and promote balanced cellular responsiveness, such as vitamins A and D.
Adaptogens
Common natural immune stimulators are adaptogens, including ashwagandha and maca. They are not suitable for people with autoimmune diseases as they stimulate the immune response.

Adaptogens like ashwagandha and maca root can moderate the body’s response to stress, including immune stress from bacteria and viruses. Lower cortisol levels, regulated by these adaptogens, correspond to immune health and balanced immune cell activity.
Since they are immune stimulants, they are not safe for people with autoimmune diseases.
