With COVID-19 here to stay for the foreseeable future, now is the time to double-down on strengthening your immune system. We know what we put into our bodies affects our health, but knowing which essential vitamins and minerals are best can be overwhelming. That’s where we come in – we’ve done the work for you with our nutritionist-curated Immunity PAC.
Data has shown that individuals 50 years and older are at an increased risk of contracting COVID-19, especially those with underlying conditions such as Diabetes, Heart Disease, Hypertension, and Asthma. Science shows that as individuals age their immune function declines resulting in a greater susceptibility to infections. Therefore, our Immuno-Boost PAC was designed with specific products to help the elderly population receive very important nutrients that research shows they may be deficient in, such as:
Our 50+ Immunity PAC not only includes whole food and beverage snacks with the immune-boosting, high quality vitamins and minerals, but also addresses the specific dietary needs of this population including

The immunity boosting properties of fruit are vast due to its rich micro and macro nutrient profile which consist of Vitamin C, Vitamin A, potassium, magnesium, and fiber. The berries in the fruit bar are high in antioxidants, which can help reduce cell damage by protecting your body from free radicals. These fruit bars contain about 2 servings of fruit per day, which meets the Dietary guidelines for the average adult. If you don’t have fresh fruit at home, this is a great snack to add to your meals.
Nooma is a whole foods beverage which is made up of ingredients such as coconut water, pink himalyan salt, and organic stevia. The electrolyte profile is rich with high amounts of potassium and magnesium to keep you properly hydrated. Hydration plays a key role in immune health. When we are properly hydrated our immune system is able to be much more effective in the removal of toxins and unwanted materials in the body. Proper hydration results in a more efficient immune system.
Chia seeds are rich in a plant based,
anti-inflammatory, omega-3 fatty acid, which reduces inflammation in the
body. The high amount of protein and fiber content in chia seeds
increases satiety, to keep you feeling full for a longer amount of time. The
fiber found in chia seeds can help fuel beneficial bacteria in the gut
microbiome, which positively impacts immune response. Chia seeds also
have a rich micronutrient profile that includes calcium, magnesium, zinc,
and iron.
