Support your Lungs - naturally

Naturally Healthy

We have a new Scientifically made Product called EXhale from Dunedin NZ.
This product is made with NZ fruit and the active ingredient Macrophages called BerriQi®.
🧫Macrophages are a type of white blood cell that helps to defend the body against pathogens. 🧫
🧫Though best known for their role as the first line of defence against invading pathogens, macrophages also perform a wide variety of roles in development, homeostasis, innate and acquired immunity, and inflammation.
🧫Macrophages demonstrate an incredible degree of plasticity and are able to change their function based on the needs of the body.

🧫Activated macrophages can be broadly divided up into two classes, M1 and M2, which have unique characteristics and perform different roles in managing pathogens and tissue damage.

🧫Macrophages can move between these two classes in response to different stimuli, using a process known as class switching.

🧫M1 macrophages (also known as “pro-inflammatory” or “classically activated” macrophages) have a central role in immunity and actively defend the body against invaders.

🧫M2 macrophages (also known as “anti-inflammatory” or “alternatively activated” macrophages) is to repair tissue that has been damaged due to infection or other causes.

🧫Unlike M1 macrophages, M2 cells produce healing factors that encourage the regeneration of damaged tissue. They also produce anti-inflammatory signals that help to resolve inflammation and prevent additional damage.

BerriQi®, a patented formulation of New Zealand Boysenberries and apple, has been shown to reduce lung fibrosis in preclinical models. Among the ways BerriQi does this is by changing the function of macrophages in the lungs, activating these cells in a specific way to aid in the breakdown of excess collagen.
