Food supplements · Immune system & immune defences
Support your immune system through informed choices
Would you like to take good care of yourself and make informed choices about your diet? An adequate supply of nutrients is part of the foundation for a normally functioning immune system.
Here you will find practical everyday guidance and learn what to look for when comparing Déesse Reishi, Cordyceps and DS7.
Nutrition comes first
Good nutrition starts with what is on your plate.
A varied diet provides your body with many different nutrients. Some of these play a role in the immune system.
These include vitamin C and zinc, for example. Their contribution to normal immune function does not, however, mean that everyone needs additional amounts in supplement form.
What matters is your overall nutrient intake. Any supplement should address a specific dietary consideration and be chosen carefully.
Take good care of yourself
Three starting points for everyday life
Begin by looking at your habits. Which changes can you maintain without putting yourself under extra pressure?
Eat a varied diet
Include a range of foods. Vegetables, fruit, wholegrains and pulses bring variety to your everyday meals.
Make time for rest
Give sleep and breaks a regular place in your routine. Consider where you could ease your commitments and when you need time for yourself.
Stay active
Choose physical activity suited to your abilities. A walk or another regular activity can often fit naturally into a restorative break.
Look more closely
What role does each ingredient play?
A formulation may contain vitamins, minerals, mushroom extracts and botanical ingredients. These should be considered individually.
A statement about the function of a vitamin cannot automatically be applied to a mushroom extract or to the formulation as a whole.
Compare the full list of ingredients and the nutrient quantities per recommended daily serving. This gives you a reliable basis for making your choice.

Choose supplements with care
Your personal circumstances matter.
A general wish for 'stronger immune defences' is not enough to identify a particular product as suitable.
It is more useful to consider your diet, any supplements you already use and the information provided for the product you are interested in.
Regine can help you compare Déesse product information. Questions about nutrient status or symptoms should be discussed with a healthcare professional.
Clarify what you want to know
What specific question do you have about your diet or a product? What would you like to supplement?
Check for duplication
Compare nutrients with the products you already take. Several formulations may contain the same vitamins or minerals.
Resolve outstanding questions first
If you take medication, have a medical condition or are in a particular life situation, discuss suitability with your doctor or pharmacist.
Frequently asked questions
The immune system and food supplements
Do I generally need a supplement for my immune defences?
No. Taking a food supplement is not a general requirement for a normally functioning immune system. Targeted supplementation may be appropriate in certain circumstances.
Does catching frequent colds mean I lack nutrients?
A specific nutrient deficiency cannot be inferred from this alone. If infections are unusually frequent or severe, medical advice is advisable.
Are the three products equivalent alternatives?
No. Reishi, Cordyceps and DS7 have different formulations. Compare the actual ingredients, nutrient quantities and directions for use.
Is more of a nutrient always better?
No. Aim for an appropriate nutrient intake and follow the recommended daily amount. Take any other supplements into account as well.
Can Regine diagnose a nutrient deficiency?
Regine can help with product questions and comparing product labels. Diagnosing a deficiency and assessing its medical significance are matters for healthcare professionals.
