Defense, daily immune support, Living Alchemy
Living Alchemy Defense is a blend of fermented organic herbs in vegetable capsules, made for daily immune support. Each bottle holds 60 capsules, and the product is made in Canada.
The formula brings together five familiar kitchen and herbal plants: garlic, oregano, thyme, ginger and clove. All of them are fermented using the Symbio® process. Organic shiitake, a mushroom valued for centuries, completes the blend.
What sets Defense apart is fermentation. Living Alchemy ferments its herbs in a living kefir and kombucha culture. According to the manufacturer, this process is designed to enhance the bioavailability of the ingredients and raises the S-allyl-cysteine (SAC) content. All ingredients are certified organic and non-GMO. The formula is vegan, dairy free and free of fillers. It's shelf stable, so no refrigeration is needed.

Audrey's tip, naturopath, also known as La Naturo Imparfaite
With this kind of product, consistency is what makes the difference. I'd keep the bottle next to my morning mug so I don't forget it. Since you can take it with or without food, it fits into any routine. Little bonus, it doesn't need the fridge, so it travels just as easily to the office as on a trip.
