Hi ! I try to eat well with a balanced diet and I take supplements like vitamins, minerals, probiotics, about 12 different supplements a day. For instance, I take Vitamin C, 500 mg x 3 a day, B-complex, kelp, Magnesium, Zinc, etc….
My friend has suggested that I add beta Glucan to help build/keep immunity?
I looked at this in a health store and it’s kinda expensive.
Is this a good choice? Is there something better? I thought vitamin C (ascorbic acid) was the best?
Thanks.
What is are the best things to take to make sure my immune system is operating at maximum capacity?

I was negligent with my diet in younger years, ingesting large amounts of sugar daily, I also had repeated bouts of bronchitis and I didn’t have the funds to visit a doctor for treatment.
Consequently, I now have “fibromyalgia”, very low energy level, salt cravings, and am very easily stressed by things such as crowds, loud noises, bright lights, people who talk too much, etc. I know that my adrenal glands are “depleted”.
My 5-year old daughter is ill with sinus/allergies and, for the next week, will be taking up to 6 different medications to help her. (Three of the meds are “regular” daily meds for her.)
My son is also coming down with sinus/allergies and mine are acting up, too. I’m trying to keep us drowning in chicken noodle soup (canned and homemade), vitamins, fluids, jello…etc. But what else can we do?
Sinus and allergies are a long-standing problem in our family–mostly for my daughter–and we can’t just move (although I’d like to). And, it just disturbs me that she’s on so much medication right now. Aren’t there natural ways for dealing with sinus/allergies and boosting immune systems?
