6 Reasons Your Immune System Needs More Than Vitamin C
Vitamin C matters. It's also nowhere near the whole job. Here's what your immune system runs on, and what most NZ supplements leave out.

01
Beta-Glucan Trains Your Immune Cells. Vitamin C Can't.
Your innate immune cells can be primed to respond faster, and that's exactly what yeast beta-glucan does. It's one of the most studied immune ingredients in the world, and it does a job no amount of vitamin C will ever do. Biosphere Immune delivers a full 500mg per scoop. Check the vitamin C bottle in your cupboard. It has zero.
02
No Zinc, No New Immune Cells.
Immune cells live fast and die young, so your body is building replacements around the clock, and zinc runs that production line. Run low and the whole system slows down. Immune uses 10mg of zinc bisglycinate, a chelated form your body absorbs, instead of the cheap oxide form it mostly doesn't.
03
Winter Cuts Off Your Vitamin D Supply.
Your immune cells carry vitamin D receptors, and your main source of D is sunlight on skin. In an NZ winter that supply drops right when you lean on your immune system hardest. Immune adds 1000IU of vitamin D3 every day, so the switch stays on through the cold, dark months.
04
Selenium Runs the Cleanup Crew. NZ Soil Barely Has Any.
Fighting bugs is messy work. Your body's antioxidant enzymes mop up the damage afterwards, and those enzymes are built on selenium. New Zealand soils are famously low in it, which means NZ food is too. Immune covers it with 50mcg of L-selenomethionine, the best-absorbed organic form.
05
Your Body Can't Store Vitamin C. And Most Doses Are Tiny.
Vitamin C is water-soluble. Take it today and most of it is gone by tomorrow, so it only works as a daily habit. Worse, most chewables and effervescents give you 100 to 250mg, a fraction of what the research actually uses. Immune gives you 1000mg, every single day, alongside the four actives above.
06
One Nutrient Can't Run a Whole System.
Your immune system runs at the level of its scarcest input. Max out vitamin C while zinc, D3, selenium and beta-glucan run low, and you've upgraded one player on a five-man team. Immune covers all five, at full therapeutic doses, in one pineapple ginger scoop a day. That's the whole point of it.

Why Biosphere Immune?
Doses that work
Every active is at the level the research uses, not a sprinkle that lets a label list it.
Forms that absorb
Chelated zinc, L-selenomethionine, D3. The forms your body actually takes up, not the cheapest ones.
One habit
A scoop in cold water beats a handful of pills you'll quit by August.
Tested, not trust-me
Made in a GMP-certified facility and third-party tested. What's on the label is what's in the tub. No proprietary blends hiding the numbers, no fairy dusting.

What's in Every Scoop
Clinically dosed, bioavailable forms of five immune-supporting actives. Compare the numbers to whatever you've got in the cupboard.
A natural fibre from the cell wall of yeast, studied for its role in supporting immune cell activity. This is the ingredient that separates a real immune formula from a vitamin tablet, and the first thing cut when a product is built to a price. We dose it at 500mg, the upper end of the range used in research, not the pinch that lets a label list it.
A full gram per serve, not the 60 to 80mg in a multivitamin. Two forms together, including sodium ascorbate, which is gentler on an empty stomach. Supports everyday immune function with antioxidant support of its own.
Essential for normal immune function, but the form decides how much you absorb. We use the well-absorbed bisglycinate chelate, easy on the stomach, rather than the cheap oxide your body takes up far less of.
A trace mineral your body uses for antioxidant defence and normal immune function. The organic L-selenomethionine form is well absorbed, dosed to cover a typical daily shortfall without overdoing it.
D3 is the form your body makes from sunlight and uses most readily, and it lifts your levels more effectively than the D2 in cheaper products. Plenty of New Zealanders run low through winter, exactly when it matters most.

Any last questions?
How is this different from the vitamin C I've already got?
Three ways. The doses are what the research uses, not a fraction of them. The forms are the ones your body absorbs. And vitamin C is only one of five actives, the other four do jobs C can't, which is the whole point of the six reasons above.
How fast will I feel something?
Be wary of anything promising an overnight fix. Immune is daily groundwork, built to be in place before the run-down weeks arrive, not a rescue remedy for once you're already in one.
Can I take it every day, long term?
Yes, that's the whole idea. The doses are set for a single daily serve, with room for a second one during the rough weeks.
Can I take it with medication or other supplements?
If you're on medication, pregnant, breastfeeding, or managing a health condition, check with your doctor or pharmacist first. They'll have the full picture.
What if it doesn't work for me?
You've got 60 days. Take it daily, and if you're not glad you did, email us for a full refund. No need to post anything back.
Get ahead of this winter.
A daily immune formula only works if it's in place before the run-down weeks arrive. Start now and decide over the next 60 days, on us.
