Building Immune Strength - Back to School Edition
Building Immune Strength for Back-to-School
by Coach Cason at LIFEstrength Health Center
As families prepare for the school season, our bodies are adjusting to new routines, early morningsa nd lots of shared spaces. It’s the perfect time to reinforce the foundations of health, starting with the immune system.
This month, we’re spotlighting three trusted, research-backed supplements we personally use and recommend for building immune resilience. These are definitely targeted for the kiddos heading off to school, but are appropriate for the entire family.
Our Three Favorite Immune Strengthening Supplements
Myoxcience Vitamin D₃ + K₂ (with Vitamin A)
Your immune system isn’t just a defense mechanism, it’s a beautifully complex communication network. One of its key players? Vitamin D.
Why we love it:
This formula provides high-quality, bioavailable Vitamin D₃ (cholecalciferol), paired with Vitamin K₂ (VitaMK7®) for proper calcium metabolism and vascular support.
Vitamin A gives an additional layer of immune function particularly against viral invaders, supporting mucosal barriers like those in your lungs and gut.
Together, these nutrients enhance immune regulation, fight inflammation, and support long-term heart and bone health.
Why it matters: Studies show Vitamin D plays a critical role in activating immune defenses, especially in the respiratory tract. Without enough Vitamin K₂, calcium can deposit in the wrong places. This duo is a prime example of synergy: better together.
Seed Daily Synbiotic - Adults (DS-01®) & Kids (PDS-08)
Gut health and immune health? Two sides of the same coin. Nearly 70% of your immune system lives in your digestive tract, so nourishing it wisely is crucial. Positive side effects include supporting brain characteristics like longer focus, positive mood and improved sleep via neurotransmitters made in the gut.
Why we love it:
Each capsule of the adult formula includes 24 strains of clinically studied probiotics and non-fermenting prebiotics for optimal delivery and survival.
The kids’ version is made with growing bodies in mind—9 powerful strains plus gut-friendly prebiotics like inulin and FOS.
The capsule-in-capsule design protects the contents through the stomach for deeper impact.
Why it matters: Probiotics can reinforce the gut lining, train immune cells, reduce unwanted inflammation, and even enhance mood. These are all important for focus and resilience during the school year.
Nordic Naturals Vitamin C Gummies
Vitamin C is a powerhouse nutrient that deserves its own spotlight, especially for busy families and growing kids.
Why we love it:
Each serving contains 250 mg of Vitamin C from pure ascorbic acid.
Tangerine flavor, no artificial colors or preservatives, gelatin-free, and vegetarian.
Perfect for kids (ages 4+) and adults alike.
Why it matters: Vitamin C supports white blood cell activity, boosts antioxidant defenses, and aids in tissue repair plus, it’s essential for adapting to stress. When we’re under pressure (emotionally, physically, or mentally), Vitamin C storages get depleted faster.
The Synergy of These Three
These supplements work together to create a full-spectrum defense against anything the world can throw at you
