Immune Plus, 2oz
Immune Plus by Benedictine Herbs is a daily-use adaptogenic tonic that combines immune-boosting mushrooms, Western herbs, and traditional Chinese ingredients to promote energy, resilience, and rapid immune response for those under daily stress or exposure.
Immune Plus by Benedictine Herbs is a powerful daily tonic that blends adaptogens, immune modulators, and botanical allies to fortify the immune system and promote long-term vitality. Designed to offer first-line defense during times of stress, exposure, or fatigue, this well-rounded formula is ideal for educators, healthcare providers, and anyone navigating high-contact environments or chronic immune challenges.
This broad-spectrum formula features key adaptogens like Eleutherococcus (Ci Wu Jia), Rhodiola, and American Ginseng to support energy, stamina, and stress recovery. Mushrooms such as Reishi, Maitake, Shiitake, and Cordyceps offer deep immune nourishment and promote balanced systemic immunity. The inclusion of Astragalus (Huang Qi), Poria (Fu Ling), and Schisandra (Wu Wei Zi) links this formula to foundational TCM tonics that strengthen Wei Qi (defensive energy), transform Dampness, and support Lung and Spleen function.
Immune Plus also incorporates potent Western herbs like Echinacea, Elderberry, Cat’s Claw, and Pau D’Arco—traditionally used to support the body’s natural defenses and promote microbial balance. Additional support from Turmeric (Yu Jin) helps clear inflammation and stagnation, while Nettles and Dandelion offer gentle detoxifying action. The formula is rounded out with zinc for targeted immune mineral support.
Vegan, alcohol-based, and free of common allergens, Immune Plus is ideal for long-term daily use or short-term immune challenges. Its wide spectrum of botanicals makes it a versatile formula suitable for year-round protection and recovery.

Comparison with Classical TCM Formula

---|---|---|---|
Yu Ping Feng San | Wei Qi deficiency with frequent colds or spontaneous sweating | Huang Qi, Bai Zhu, Fang Feng | Yu Ping Feng San is a classical Qi-tonifying formula focused on strengthening surface defenses (Wei Qi) in Spleen and Lung Qi deficiency.
