One should always stay young at heart regardless of age, but staying young inside out is possible if you start fighting free radicals.   Free radicals can cause serious harm to the human body. The key to fighting free radicals are antioxidants. Skin aging such as wrinkles, sagging skin, dryness, yellow tone, pigmentation and normal aging are caused by these free radicals.   Follow these simple lifestyle habits to keep free radicals away     1. Apply sunscreen   This is an essential step in your skincare routine. Use sunscreen daily to protect your skin against harmful UV light and slow down skin aging       2. Good lifestyle habits   Avoid smoking and drinking alcohol, get enough sleep and minimize stress to reduce free radicals production as well as preventing diseases     3. Moderate exercise   Excessive exercise increases the production of free radicals. Exercise is good for health, but do it moderately!     4. Avoid oily, processed and high sugar food   These food generate free radicals in the body and can lead to weight gain and diseases     5.

Have you gotten used to working overtime, burning the midnight oil, eating out and are constantly under stress? Do you get tired easily, have an unhealthy lifestyle and tend to drink and smoke a lot? Adding up to the electronics, radiation and air pollution you are frequently exposed to on a daily basis living in the city, your body might have already been loaded with free radicals.   These are the culprits in aging skin and body and can be a threat to your health.   Free radicals are unstable and highly reactive molecules. They love to take electrons from other molecules, which causes damage to the molecules.   Our bodies actually do produce free radicals through metabolic reactions or released by our white blood cells to kill pathogens during infections. However, this has never been a concern as our body naturally produces antioxidant to neutralize these free radicals.   Living in this fast-paced, technological, and developed 21st century, factors such as stress, diet, pollution and UV rays can lead to the production of excessive free radicals, which causes oxidative damage, destroying healthy cells, protein and DNA in your body. This can cause aging and various life-threatening diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases and diabetes.   The largest internal organ in our bodies-liver is known as human’s chemical factory, performing various important functions which include providing us energy and eliminating toxins from our body. But the downside is that excessive free radicals can damage our liver cells, reducing liver functions and causing problems that can range from fatigue to liver diseases, aging and affecting overall health.   The key to anti-aging is antioxidant. Consuming food rich in antioxidant such as vegetables, fruits, beans, garlic and turmeric helps to reduce excessive free radicals in our body.   EnVita VigorPlus, our curcumin energy drink is an ideal drink for the city people. It is uniquely formulated to help you eliminate free radicals, protect and revitalizes your liver, eliminating toxins and reduces fatigue, energizing you throughout the day. Fight free radicals today with VigorPlus!

Imagine life without protection from immune system, we would not have survived this long. There is no exaggeration or whatsoever. The truth is that, our immune system should be credited for our daily good health that we can easily take for granted.   Since birth, our immune system has always been defending us against the invasion of harmful microorganisms (such as bacteria and virus) as well as cancer cells formed in our body by detecting and destroying them.   Living in the world where human and microorganisms co-exists, without the immune system, the human population could have been perished long time ago by harmful microorganisms (and cancer cells). Our body produces millions of new cells on a daily basis, but some of them can be ‘faulty’ or abnormally grown. Fortunately, our immune system was built to destroy these faulty cells before they can potentially turn cancerous, which causes cancer.   Everyone has this complex defense system, but some of them tend to have weaker immunity (elderly and children), in which they can easily get infected and fall sick; some tend to have self-destructive immunity, in which the immune system can mistakenly attack normal cells in the body, causing autoimmune diseases (such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis); while some tend to have overactive immunity, in which the immune system overreacts to harmless substances such as pollen and certain food, causing allergic reactions (such as asthma and atopic dermatitis).   This is the importance of immune balance. While those with weak immunity can boost their immune system; autoimmune diseases and allergies cannot be cured and can only be controlled by medication.   Stolle ImmNuPLus is your best natural health food to achieve immune balance It contains patented bioactive factors, such as   Immunoglobulin A and G                protection against bacterial infections   Anti-inflammatory factors (AIF)              relieve symptoms of redness, swelling, pain and heat caused by inflammation   Macrophage-activating factors (MAF)    increase macrophage activity in engulfing pathogens   Lactoferrin help to protect gut mucosa and inhibit pathogen growth                                      which work together to boost your immunity   Drink Stolle ImmNuPLus today for immune balance!

2020, we wanted a new decade, not pandemic. Within just a few months’ time, COVID-19 has been spreading like wildfire globally, affecting at least 200 countries with an estimate of 1,420,000 cases reported with over 82,000 fatalities. The pandemic has only been getting worse without proper cure, causing endless fear and panic.       The scary part about COVID-19 is that people who get infected can initially show no symptoms. With that, these people can unknowingly spread the virus through close contact with other people or respiratory droplets.   The number of days for a person to show symptoms after getting infected ranges from 2-14 days. People who get infected typically show symptoms such as dry cough, fever and fatigue; if severe, pneumonia or acute respiratory distress syndrome can develop, some even had kidney and heart failure, which can lead to death.   According to America’s immunology expert-Dr. Robert Stohrer, our immune system is the key to fighting COVID-19.   At such critical period, our immune system is the best defense against infections.   But as we age, our immunity eventually weaken, which increases risks in getting various diseases and infections. Studies have shown that those with severe to critical conditions are mostly older people, those with weak immunity or pre-existing health conditions. If you fit the above described, you need to strengthen your immunity more than anyone else!   Our solution for you-Stolle ImmNuPlus is able to boost your immune function to a higher level, allowing your immune system to fight viral infection better. More than just ordinary milk, Stolle ImmNuPlus is a combination of natural milk nutrients and patented bioactive factors, which was scientifically proven to be effective in immune regulation, soothing inflammation and more, allowing those with weak or overactive immune system to achieve immune balance, which is the most ideal condition for battling the pandemic. Prevention is always better than cure.   Together with Stolle, let’s fight our way out of this pandemic!

The below illustration is to help illustrate how immune function changes with age.   What is normal immune balance is shown by the red line.  As a baby, our immune systems start weak with immune balance building through childhood and the teenage years.  As young adults, our immune health should be at it is peak. When we enter middle age, we begin to experience a decline in immune balance. This decline continues through the elderly stage. However, unhealthy lifestyles at all ages lead to a stressed and unbalanced immune system, leading to many disease states. Stolle has been focusing on balancing the immune system for over 60 years and this illustration illustrates why we need Stolle.   Unbalanced Immune System Leads to Health Problems It is important to understand how an Unbalanced Immune System Leads to Health Problems.     If it is Too Weak, the Immune system under-reacts and fails to attack dangerous targets: More infections such as Colds, Influenza Unhealthy GIT microflora and GIT disorders Also, Higher rates of cancers If it is Too Strong, The immune system over-reacts and attacks wrong targets: The immune system can attack normally “Safe” things such as pollen and certain foods resulting in Allergies. Normal cells/tissues can be  attacked and damaged resulting in: Autoimmune disease such as Rheumatoid arthritis. The immune system can also overreact in many other situations resulting in: inflammation, pain, swelling and tissue damage. Therefore, It is critical to balance the immune system by directly stimulating our immune cells to support strong immune responses resulting in: Fewer infections, Healthier GIT and fewer cancers. We also need to Minimize over reactions of the immune system resulting in: Anti-inflammatory effects, Reduction of allergies and autoimmunity. There are so many way to have a balanced immune system, however, ImmunoNutrition is the most complete answer to balanced immunity and the key concept to remember.

There are no readily available cures for coronaviruses infections. The only cure known to science is the body’s own immune system.

Tips from the US CDC on how to protect yourself from 2019-nCoV

Antibiotics are ineffective against the H1N1 virus or any other virus for that matter.  While antibiotics have no effect on the H1N1 virus itself, they may be useful to combat secondary bacterial infections which often follow viral infections.  The only way to overcome infection by the H1N1 virus is to allow the immune system to eliminate the virus from the body. Because the immune system is the only defense against the H1N1 virus, it is of vital importance that the immune system be as fit as possible.    Nutritional supplements such as those marketed by STOLLE can be important components of a balanced diet that provides support to the our own immune system.  A healthy and fit immune system is much more likely to resist infection from any pathogen including the H1N1 virus than an immune system that does not have the appropriate support.   STOLLE also contains a number of factors, which have been demonstrated to support immune system function.  Immunoglobulins such as IgG, IgA and IgM are present in high concentrations in Stolle.  These immunoglobulins are specific for a number of human pathogens.   STOLLE provides a general immune support function that may provide enhanced protection against disease causing organisms including viruses such as the 2009 H1N1 Influenza A virus.   In addition to consuming STOLLE, you can protect yourself with frequent hand washing, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, avoiding large crowds.

Allergens are everywhere and are ready to cause a variety of mild to severe diseases such as allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis, asthma…etc.   What is an allergy and what are the properties of allergies?   An allergy is a hypersensitivity disorder of the immune system. Allergic reactions occur when a person's immune system mistakenly reacts to and attacks normally harmless and often common substances encountered in the environment. These substances that cause allergies are called “allergens”. Allergic reactions are quite different from normal immune reactions because of the over-activation of populations of white blood cells called mast cells and basophils by a certain type of antibody called Immunoglobulin E (IgE). Allergies are known to be due to a malfunctioning (hypersensitive) immune system. Scientists believe allergies occur because people in the modern developed world live in cleaner environments and are exposed to fewer microorganisms because of changes in hygiene, diet and the use of antibiotics. As a consequence, people in the modern developed world also have far more allergies than people living in less sanitary conditions in the undeveloped world and those that lived in the past. Allergies are thought to first develop when we are young and our maturing immune systems become imbalanced due to under-stimulation by healthy normal flora, germs and other pathogens. Without the proper stimulation of the immune system by these microbes, the immune system does not develop or “learn” properly and as a result, overreacts to these normally harmless allergens thereby causing allergies.    Over 30% of the world's population suffer from allergies!   Allergies are among the most common afflictions in the world today with some form of allergies currently affecting 30-40% of the world population with the incidence projected to increase to over 50% in the next two decades! Allergic conditions are a major public health problem that is largely ignored by the medical community and the general public. One key reason for this apparent lack of concern is that allergies are often are not perceived as serious chronic diseases compared to higher profile diseases such as cancer or cardiovascular disease and as a result are often underdiagnosed and consequently remain untreated. Possibly the most alarming fact regarding allergies is that the incidence of allergies worldwide is increasing rapidly!    What are the common allergic diseases and the allergens that cause them?   Allergies are caused by normal substances (allergens) that we commonly encounter in our everyday environment. Allergens are found everywhere around us including the air we breathe, the liquids and solids we consume, things that come in contact with our skin and even from insect bites and stings. Common allergens include: plant pollen, animal dander, common foods like peanuts, mold and other fungi spores, insect saliva (mosquitos), insect venom (bees), medications, chemicals and even latex rubber gloves. These allergens cause a variety of mild to severe diseases. The most commonly diseases caused by allergens are:   Allergic rhinitis, also known as hay fever is an inflammation of the nose and sinuses and is often caused by inhaled allergens such as pollen, fungi spores and animal dander. Asthma is a serious inflammatory disease of the lungs and can be caused by almost any allergen or irritant that can be inhaled. Atopic dermatitis is due to direct skin contact with allergens and other irritants. Food allergies are becoming increasingly common and can be caused by many commonly consumed foods such as peanuts, soy and eggs.   Clinical symptoms of allergies. Allergic reactions result in inflammatory symptoms which can range from just simply annoying, to serious, to dangerous and even deadly. Allergic reactions can trigger irritation of the eyes, nasal passages/sinuses, lungs, throat, ears, the skin and also the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Typical mild symptoms include itching of the nose, eyes and skin along with watery eyes and runny nose with sneezing. Sometimes the skin can become red, with swelling, dryness and even cracking. Generally, the symptoms of allergies can be quite unpleasant, but not life threatening. However, conditions such as asthma can be quite serious and may have a significant impact on one’s quality of life and one’s lifespan. In extreme cases, a life-threatening allergic reaction called anaphylaxis can occur which can result in dangerously low blood pressure, vomiting and inability to breath. If untreated, anaphylaxis can result in rapid death!   How can allergies be prevented or cured? Perhaps the best way to prevent allergies is to avoid the allergens! If you know you have allergic rhinitis from seasonal pollen, simply try to avoid spending time outdoors during that time of the year.  Sometimes you cannot avoid the allergens, making your next best option to use protection such as a face mask or face cloth to filter out much of the pollen. There are medical treatments such as desensitization and drugs that can help cure or relieve the symptoms of allergies. However, like all other drugs, anti-allergy drugs can have unpleasant side effects. If exposure to allergens is unavoidable, the best solution has been shown to balance your immune system and your microflora, thereby reducing allergies at the root cause versus just reliving the symptoms as drugs do.
