C1000 provides the purest source of vitamin C and a wide range of bioflavonoids to ensure maximum antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Studies show that insufficient intake of vitamin C results in an increased susceptibility to connective tissue injury and deterioration, and may lead to the development of cardiovascular disease. Bioflavonoids enhance the absorption of vitamin C, protect, strengthen, maintain and repair collagen, capillaries and connective tissue, and possess powerful anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and chelating agents.

Flu Prevention Program
Clinically-proven to be 88% effective

According to the Centers for Disease Control,up to 20% of the American population gets the flu, and at least 200,000 Americans are likely to be hospitalized for influenza this season, which could cause as many as 36,000 deaths due to flu complications. [1] In Canada, British Columbia reports that 1,400 people in the province die each year from flu-related problems, and Nova Scotia puts its toll at 400. [2] In Ontario last year, there were 5,145 confirmed influenza cases reported.3 There has not been a pandemic, or global epidemic, since 1968; however, current scientists and virologists all over the world are greatly concerned with the new avian flu strain, which is expected to cause a pandemic. According to President Bush’s speech to world leaders, "If left unchallenged, the virus could become the first pandemic of the 21st century". [4]

Flu viruses mutate constantly, producing new strains from year to year such as the current avian flu strain. The current flu vaccines are ineffective against any new types of flu as they do not provide protection against the latest flu strains. By the time the flu strain is obtained and manufactured, the particular virus may have mutated and new flu strains may have emerged, making last year’s vaccines ineffective.

We are all aware that a strong immune system is paramount in fighting off any viruses, and that a weakened immune system allows for the proliferation of bacterial and viral microorganisms. With this in mind, we have developed the Flu Prevention Program that is based on the principles of natural medicine whereby the body is supported in order to maintain physiological balance. By strengthening the immune system and stimulating the body’s natural defenses, the program will protect up to 88% of individuals [5] from contracting any type of flu.

Mucococcinum, a clinically-proven homeopathic preparation of bacterial and viral strains, formulated to stimulate the body’s own defenses in order to combat all types of influenza. Serious complications of the flu, such as bacterial infection and pneumonia, can be deadly, especially to those individuals whose immune system is compromised. Mucococcinum is prepared with homeopathic dilutions of the worse flu epidemics of the 20th century, where thousands of people died, and is formulated specifically to challenge the immune system. Mucococcinum is indicated for all types of influenza, and for colds and respiratory ailments, both acutely and preventatively.

Double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical studies have confirmed the effectiveness of Mucococcinum in the prevention and treatment of respiratory diseases, and it has demonstrated it to be 88% effective in the prevention of any flu type in all age groups. [1,2,3] The clinical study completed in double-blind against placebo on 191 subjects showed the effectiveness of Mucococcinum in the prevention of influenza on 87 subjects of the 99 subjects of the "active" group.

Gammadyn Cu, a sublingual oligo-element preparation of a micro amount of bioavailable copper necessary for the maintenance of a healthy immune system. [1] Oligo-element copper possesses anti-infectious and anti- allergic properties to decrease both acute and chronic bacterial infections, and is also essential in all acute, microbial or viral infections, especially in the case of influenza.

Recommended Dose:

Gammadyn Cu-Au-Ag, a sublingual oligo-element preparation of micro amounts of bioavailable copper, gold and silver, needed for healthy immune function and for activating the mechanisms of cellular and humoral immunity. Oligo-element copper-gold-silver also helps to potentiate adrenal function, consequently decreasing fatigue and stress levels associated with hypoadrenalism. Due to its bactericidal, antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties, Cu-Au-Ag is particularly effective in reinforcing and optimizing defense mechanisms, especially during the convalescence period of infectious and rheumatic conditions.

C1000 provides a pure source of vitamin C along with a wide range of bioflavonoids to ensure maximum antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Vitamin C helps protect against infection, enhances immunity,1 and prevents and relieves cold and flu symptoms. [2] Regular supplementation of vitamin C demonstrates consistent and statistically significant benefits and indicates that it plays a role in respiratory defense mechanisms. The duration and severity of the virus are significantly reduced when supplementing with vitamin C. [3]

Genestra C-1000 Vitamin C   1/31/2010
Reviewed by Robert from Niagara Falls Canada.
For about 40 years I have suffered from an extremely severe neurological disorder. My health improved dramatically in 1984 when I underwent an extensive test for food allergies. I simply stopped eating any foods that I was allergic to. The only brand of vitamin C that does not give me any allergic reaction is Genestra C-1000. I take 6 tablets per day, and I am almost certain that they have helped me to avoid much suffering with colds and severe flu symptoms. During the last few years, the tablets seemed to be uncoated and I often had trouble swallowing them; I really had to think about what I was doing each time I took a tablet. The last few bottles have contained tablets that seem to have some kind of smooth coating, which have made them vastly easier to swallow. However, each tablet has a sort-of sharp rim around the edges that I do not like; I think that they would be easier to swallow if the shape of the tablet was more streamlined.
