Improving Immune Function/Eyesight

The human body should run like a well-oiled machine, but when things become inflamed, symptoms arise. People are most familiar with acute inflammation that occurs with short-term concerns such as a sprain or minor cut. Redness, warmth and pain occur in the area, but eventually heal with the help of the body’s immune system. Suzy says that with chronic, low-grade inflammation, the body becomes overcome with inflammatory “cytokines” and this new thinking is what health experts view as the underlying cause for serious conditions. For example, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, lung conditions and memory loss may all be driven by systemic, full-body inflammation.

According to Suzy, “We know that excessive cytokines can over time harm the eyes, skin and immune system if left unchecked. It’s exactly this type of inflammation that also raises the risk of mortality in COVID patients.” The reason this happens in some people is because their immune system isn’t functioning as well as it used to, and because of the widespread (unknowing) intake of GMO foods, synthetic chemicals, artificial, refined foods and pharma-tainted water. When the body is repeatedly exposed to something it cannot process and eliminate, it produces inflammatory cytokines, which are essentially pain-causing chemicals.

Suzy says certain herbs that grow on God’s green Earth can make a big difference in terms of inflammation. Maintaining a healthy, balanced cytokine level will not only protect vision, but also support immune health during these challenging times. That's because certain plants, spices and foods provide natural compounds that are strong antioxidants. This will nourish the delicate capillaries of the eyes’ optic nerve and also reawaken immune cells that neutralize viruses, bacteria and parasites. 

Vitamin “DMB” is making news around the world. This refers to 3 different vitamins which have been found to possibly reduce the speed or progression of COVID. These refer to 3 nutrients as follows: (1) D is for Vitamin D – which supports T helper cells and protects the airways; (2) M is for Magnesium - which works alongside with D to increase efficacy; and (3) B is for B12 – which improves gut microflora which supports immune cells. In combination this ‘trifecta’ may be useful for people who become infected and need additional immune support. All of these vitamins are available nationwide, at online e-tailers, or Suzy’s website www.suzycohen.com.

Suzy is offering a free gift (a sample bottle of Joint Script which contains 14 capsules, a 7-day supply with any purchase, no minimum order. Joint Script is a patent-pending product that contains 10mg Type II collagen plus Curcumin and Boswellia (frankincense). This product will support ALL aspects of flexibility, healthy movement and structure while providing all the nutrients and compounds that will help the structure and function of your bones, cartilage and connective tissue. It soothes tender joints by maintaining a healthy balance of cytokines. 
                        
Protecting Yourself From The Inside Out

We are all worried about our health and wanting to do the most we can to preserve it. As we move into the fall, Suzy advises that we optimize our immune system and feed our body with anti-inflammatory foods and spices.  

She says, “Eating as well as you can on most days offsets all the candy bars that you stress-ate yesterday!” She insists that many different disorders in the body could be driven by ONE thing, inflammation and you can control this with specific herbs, spices and nutrition. Prepare in advance of the fall, and protect your body from head to toe, including vision, skin and immune function.

Suzy says, “We are all at a juncture right now where a little bit of care prepares us for the future, which looks scary. So, doing some cellular house-keeping cleans the body up and reduces inflammation. And that’s what gives us a fighting chance.” 

America's Pharmacist 

Suzy has been a licensed pharmacist for the last 30 years and is known as “America’s Pharmacist™” and is a functional medicine practitioner for the last 17. For the first 6 years of her career, Suzy was sold on pharmaceutical drugs, but for the last 19 years, she has studied how natural supplements work on our systems, without the harmful side effects of drugs.

Suzy explains, “I didn’t always have knowledge into natural medicine. I was a hard-core pharmacist when I graduated in 1989 from the University of Florida College of Pharmacy. I knew the next best drug and could rattle them off like the true nerd I am. But when my husband didn’t respond to typical conventional treatment for his symptoms, I started to learn about natural teas, herbs and vitamins which could relieve symptoms as well as medications, but without the harmful side effects.” 

She devotes time to educating people about the benefits of natural vitamins, herbs and minerals. In addition to writing a syndicated health column, Dear Pharmacist, which circulates to 22 million readers each week, Suzy is the author of many different books on natural health. She has appeared on The Dr. OZ Show (6 different appearances), The View, The Doctors, and Good Morning America Health to name a few. She has delved deeply into metabolic pathways in the body and how vitamins and minerals affect these pathways.  

Suzy decided to develop a line of supplements 5 years ago using non-GMO (genetically modified organisms). She incorporates biblical, medicinal herbs into each formula.  “I’ve done the research for this and with my pharmacy background and love for God’s plants, I came up with these supplements,” says Suzy.   

Suzy's Demo:

She recommends certain foods, supplements and herbs to combat inflammation and free radicals which could be the key to preserving vision and a stronger immune system as fall approaches:

  • Tomatoes, carrots and lemons which contain essential nutrients like vitamin C, lutein, zeaxanthin, lycopene and beta carotene.
  • Black Currants - rich in anthocyanidins; this is a dark blue dye known to help with light adaptation and eye moisture.
  • Saffron which is a flower-derived spice that has been clinically shown to help macular degeneration.
  • Vision Script - a special eye formula that Suzy custom-formulated for people who have eye strain, macular problems and poor retinal health*
  • Vitamin C and oranges - provide both vision and immune-strengthening flavonoids.
  • Olive Oil - provides an anti-viral effect from the luteolin and oleuropein compounds. 
  • Immune Script - a powerful formula that Suzy created for maintaining the health of the upper respiratory tract, and immune function. *One natural ingredient in this increases your natural killer (NK) cells! 
  • Andrographis - a gorgeous flower with strong medicinal properties.
  • Natural skin care products to fight inflammation, wrinkles and dryness from the inside out, using a cactus, green tea and frankincense.
