AfaFlu® Nutrigea is a liquid food supplement based on 14 synergistic plant extracts, natural vitamin C from Acerola, HRD® purified Propolis and AphaMax®, a concentrated extract from Klamath algae rich in phycocyanins and antioxidants. 1,2,3
The formulation was developed to support the well-being of the respiratory tract during periods characterized by seasonal colds and increased stress on the upper airways.
The ingredients of AfaFlu® do not act as a symptomatic product, but accompany the normal physiological adaptations of the organism, promoting balanced and respectful support of homeostasis.
The action of this formula occurs on four functional levels:
Respiratory tract well-being:favors the fluidity of mucus and the functionality of the upper airways thanks to balsamic essential oils (thyme, pine, fennel), plant resins traditionally used for respiratory well-being (grindelia) and aromatic active ingredients such as helichrysum 4,5,6,7,8
Comfort of the mucous membranes: plant extracts rich in flavonoids and polyphenols (including escin, galangin, carnosol and naringin) contribute to maintaining the normal balance of the respiratory mucous membranes 9,10,11
Physiological microbial balance: the presence of propolis, grapefruit seeds, sage and thyme contributes to maintaining a balanced oral and respiratory environment 5,12
Antioxidant and immune support: Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system and the protection of cells from oxidative stress; phycocyanins and plant phenolic compounds complete the physiological support. 2,3,9,10,11 .
The liquid form promotes rapid assimilation and high synergy between the components.
AfaFlu® Nutrigea contains 100% natural active ingredients, is gluten-free, free from alcohol, lactose, and animal derivatives. * Further information and references are available in the Scientific Evidence section.
The active ingredients of the AfaFlu® Nutrigea supplement can be useful as nutritional support during periods of greater stress on the respiratory tract, in particular:
• in case of seasonal colds and typical cold-weather discomfort
• for the well-being of the throat and upper respiratory tract
• in the presence of thick mucus or a sensation of congested airways
• to support the resilience of the respiratory mucous membranes, even in more sensitive individuals
• during periods of recovery of respiratory well-being after seasonal stress • in situations of exposure to cold, smog, dust or dry air
AfaFlu® Nutrigea can be taken at the first signs of seasonal discomfort and is suitable for adults and the elderly.
