Zestt Breathe+

For immunity and lung health (formerly known as EXhale)

24 lozenges per pack.  Comes in 1-pack, 2-pack and 10-pack sizes.

These naturally-derived lozenges* boost your immune system and support lung health, supporting a clear and healthy respiratory system. Consume 1 lozenge daily after food for every-day health.  In times of sickness, or ill health, consume 2 lozenges per day, morning and evening, after food.

Each lozenge contains the following bioactives:

Anthocyanins (from boysenberries & blackcurrants) (600mg) are bioactives that support lung health and immunity by reducing inflammation and supporting a clear respiratory tract.

They promote the production of M2 macrophages which help drive the body's innate immune response.  Anthocyanins are also good antioxidants, helping the body to clear damaging free radicals.

 Quercetin (250mg) Quercetin is a plant-derived flavonoid, from the flower buds of Japonica saphora.  Quercetin is a zinc ionophore which means it helps zinc to cross cell membranes promoting a strong immune response.  Quercetin is also an excellent antioxidant - quercetin as well as chelated zinc and BLIS K12™ probiotics to support the immune system response.

Chelated Zinc (5mg ) Zinc is critical for a high-functioning immune system.  By combining zinc with quercetin, we optimize zinc action within cells.  The zinc in Breathe+ lozenges is in a chelated form to be more gentle on the stomach and to promote bioavailability for the body.

BLIS K12™ oral probiotic (25mg)(2.5 Billion CFU)  Blis K12™ are a strain of beneficial bacteria from the Streptococcus salivarius family that support the health of the beginning of our digestive system.  Blis K12™ probiotics inhibit the growth of detrimental microorganisms, promoting oral microbiome health and immunity. 

New Zealand Rātā honey (1800mg) Rātā honey is a source of natural sugars which are important to support the absorption of the bioactives, they are also a source of polyphenols for general health.

*Not recommended if you have a berry or honey allergy. We recommend checking with your medical practitioner before using for children under 10 years of age, or pregnant or breastfeeding women.

• The daily recommended maximum dose of quercetin, which is 1,200mg (note there is 500mg of quercetin in one dose of liquid Breathe+ and 250mg per lozenge, but there are other supplements and medicines which may contain quercetin);
• The daily recommended maximum dose of zinc, which is 50mg (note there is 15mg of zinc in one dose of liquid Breathe+ and 5mg per lozenge, but there are other supplements and medicines which may contain zinc).
