AFA Protect Immunity Pairing
Transform your wellness routine with the AFA Protect Immunity Pairing, a dynamic fusion of nature’s most potent superfoods. Featuring Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA) and a synergistic 8-mushroom blend, this pairing is expertly crafted to support holistic health, vitality, and immune resilience.

Nature’s Most Powerful Duo

This premium pairing combines the nutrient density of AFA, a blue-green algae known for its exceptional phytonutrient content, with the immune-boosting properties of adaptogenic mushrooms, creating a harmonious balance of nourishment and wellness.


Key Benefits of AFA Superfood

  • Nutrient-Dense Support: Rich in bioavailable vitamins, minerals, essential amino acids, and antioxidants that nourish the body at a cellular level.
  • Energy and Focus: Naturally supports mental clarity and sustained energy without stimulants.
  • Sustainable and Pure: Harvested from pristine waters to ensure eco-friendly, toxin-free quality.

Immune-Boosting Power of the 8-Mushroom Blend

This potent blend of adaptogenic mushrooms is designed to enhance immune function and overall vitality, working synergistically with AFA for optimal results:

  • Reishi: Known as the “Mushroom of Immortality,” Reishi contains beta-glucans and triterpenes that support the immune system, reduce stress, and promote restful sleep.
  • Cordyceps: Enhances energy, stamina, and oxygen utilization while boosting immune cell activity, particularly natural killer (NK) cells.
  • Chaga: A powerful antioxidant that fights oxidative stress and supports immune modulation through beta-glucans.
  • Lion’s Mane: Supports cognitive function and nerve health while promoting a balanced immune response.
  • Turkey Tail: Rich in polysaccharides and beta-glucans that stimulate immune cells, including macrophages and NK cells, for optimal defense.
  • Shiitake: Contains lentinan, a beta-glucan that supports immune function and overall vitality.
  • Maitake: Enhances immune system efficiency by activating T-cells and NK cells, essential for natural immune defense.
  • Agaricus: Packed with polysaccharides that promote robust immune function and help balance inflammatory responses.

Synergistic Benefits

The combination of AFA’s comprehensive nutrient profile and the mushroom blend’s immune-enhancing properties creates a powerful synergy:

  • Immune Modulation: Beta-glucans in the mushroom blend stimulate NK cells, macrophages, and other immune components, strengthening your body’s natural defenses.
  • Holistic Energy: Supports balanced energy levels and resilience, ideal for those seeking sustainable vitality.
  • Cognitive Clarity: Promotes focus and mental performance, making it perfect for today’s fast-paced lifestyles

Elevate your approach to wellness with the AFA Protect Immunity Pairing—a powerhouse combination that aligns with nature’s healing potential and the latest trends in functional nutrition. Shop now and discover how this blend can support your journey to optimal health and vitality.

Your immune system functions optimally when the wide range of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, omega 3’s, enzymes, and antioxidants from AFA is paired with the bioactive compounds of Protect's 8 functional mushrooms. AFA raises your baseline nutrient levels, further enhancing the work of Protect’s immunomodulatory polysaccharides, polyphenols, and terpenes. This pairing supports a robust defense against invading bacteria, viruses, pathogens, antigens, and mediators of tissue damage. For maximum effect, you should combine this pairing with a real whole-food diet, regular exercise, sunshine and time in nature, and less sugar and alcohol. Stress management and good sleep will also support a fully functioning immune system.

 

AFA is a powerhouse for your immunity

AFA contains one of the highest amounts of Chlorophyll A which is the compound that gives AFA its green color. With magnesium at its center, Chlorophyll A cleanses the blood to slow the spread of invading cells and protects DNA during crucial cell division. AFA increases NK cell activity and the number of T marker and interferon cells which are immune modulators. Coenzyme Vitamin B6 activates over 60 enzyme systems that play a role in the production of red blood cells and immune cells. AFA also contains chelated vitamins A, and C plus complete B vitamins all chelated meaning these vitamins are pre-loaded with the minerals they need to work. 

Phycocyanin is a rare bioactive compound responsible for the striking blue color pigment in AFA. It is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compound that protects the cell receptors and supports the immune system. Recently approved by the FDA for research and is a new “ hot spot” for research. Phycocyanin is nature's first and ultimate antioxidant.

Stress plays a large role in how well your immune system functions. When the body is under stress it absorbs key nutrients in particular L-Arginine whose main focus is to bio-stimulate the Thymus gland, the engine for your immune system. When under stress the body absorbs the amino acid L-Arginine which means there is no longer enough L-Arginine available to support the Thymus gland, under stressful conditions. Other important minerals that support immune system function are; copper, iron, and zinc, all of which are present and absorbable in AFA 

White blood cells also called T cells travel in our lymphatic fluid and give chemical orders to Natural Killer Cells. NK cells originate in bone marrow and mature in the thymus gland. NK cells shoot a phospholipase powered by zinc to kill off invading bacteria or viruses. The thymus gland needs zinc and L-arginine to produce active and energetic T cells and activate NK cells that protect regenerating cell walls with an interferon shield of sorts and stimulate protein synthesis so they can have strong cell walls.

Beta carotenes work to biostimulant the thymus gland responsible for crucial immune system functioning. Free Radical protection of immune cells is supported by antioxidant superoxide dismutase (SOD.) Specific immune system minerals chromium, copper, germanium, iron, and zinc all work together in concert to optimize your immune system's functionality. AFA even contains a small amount of polysaccharides that are associated with supporting the macrophage cells. Vitamin C daily is required for active white blood cells and AFA contains about 5 times that of spirulina and chlorella.

 Antioxidant Beta Carotene other carotenoids and micronutrients stimulate the thymus gland and immunity cells to function properly killing off invading pathogens. Our immune cells receive specific protection from Beta carotene and a selenium-dependent enzyme glutathione peroxidase. AFA is truly a nutrient antioxidant-dense real food that is a champion for your immune system because it contains all the required compounds to maximize your immune potential.


 Our Protect functional mushroom blend contains a variety of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants co-factors as it is a tinctured extract from a whole food source. However, for immunity, the power lies in the various immunomodulatory polysaccharides, terpenes, and polyphenols in these 8 mushrooms. These highly functional bioactive compounds fine-tune your immune system. Mushrooms can help to reduce the inflammatory response caused by pro-inflammatory cytokines and allow for T cells, B cells, and antibodies to work more effectively. Protect contains a very high amount of immune boost bioactive compounds and when paired with AFA makes a formidable duo.
