Tonic Greens works to help the immune system combat the herpes simplex virus (HSV), both HSV-1 (responsible for oral herpes) and HSV-2 (responsible for genital herpes). Here’s a breakdown of how it works:
🔰 Uncloaking the Virus: The manufacturers of Tonic Greens claim that the herpes viruses “mask themselves in your body” by wrapping themselves in a protective protein coating, so your immune system cannot find and destroy them. They say that a few of the ingredients in Tonic Greens, including quercetin, resveratrol, and curcumin, help to "uncloak" the virus by removing that protective barrier. With the virus out in the open, the body's immune system is better able to recognize and attack it.
🔰 Boosting the Immune System: Tonic Greens has a potent combination of antioxidant-packed fruits, vegetables, herbs, and mushroom extracts (such as maitake, reishi, and shiitake). These properties are known to support the body's natural defenses. When the immune system is stronger, it is able to suppress active herpes outbreaks and hold the virus in remission.
🔰 Reducing Inflammation and Oxidative Stress: Inflammation and oxidative stress (damage from free radicals) often cause or contribute to herpes outbreaks. Key ingredients like green tea extract, turmeric (curcumin), and spirulina in Tonic Greens are anti-inflammatory and provide antioxidant support. These nutrients can also soothe and reduce inflammatory reactions, repair cellular damage, and encourage an environment that is not conducive to flaring the herpes virus.
🔰 Restoring Gut Health: Tonic Greens also contains probiotics and prebiotics, which support a healthy gut microbiome. Because so much of the immune system is regulated via gut health, helping the gut bacteria balance may directly or indirectly improve the body's immune response to infections like herpes outbreaks.
🔰 Overall Nutritional Support: In addition to addressing herpes, Tonic Greens includes critical vitamins,minerals, and phytonutrients to help sustain a healthy body. This includes vitamin C for immune function and other bioactive compounds that help maintain energy, decrease fatigue, and ward off other illnesses.
