Patient One SinusCare supplies a synergistic combination of micronutrients, bioflavonoids, enzymes, amino acids and herbs that provide multi-faceted support for immune and respiratory function. This formula provides natural support and quick relief for unpleasant reactions associated with immune hypersensitivity and histamine release, including watery eyes, sneezing, runny nose and congestion.

Key Ingredients

Quercetin, a powerful bioflavonoid with strong antioxidant activity, provides support for stabilizing mast cells that store and release histamine and moderate an exaggerated immune response to allergens.

Vitamin C is commonly known for its role in moderating the severity or duration of acute immune challenges. This nutrient appears to heighten the immune response impacting T-cell proliferation. Vitamin C also synergistically improves the ability of quercetin to preserve and increase glutathione levels, supporting reduced oxidative stress and helping to lessen nasal obstruction, runny nose and ear fullness.

Bromelain, a proteolytic enzyme purified from pineapple, is a supportive nutrient in helping prevent allergens from crossing the gastrointestinal tract. With the assistance of quercetin and vitamin C, bromelain inhibits the absorption of substances into the body that may induce allergic response. Bromelain supports normal inflammatory response by hindering the body’s production of kinins and fibrin. This natural enzyme contains constituents that help maintain a healthy cytokine balance. Bromelain has also been found to enhance the absorption of quercetin.

Stinging nettle, an herb named for the fine hairs found along its stems and leaves that break off when touched, has been traditionally used for wheezing and promoting healthy airways. Nettle’s aerial parts may reduce the amount of histamine that is produced in response to an allergen. Stinging nettle leaf has been shown in vitro to inhibit the pro-inflammatory pathways related to allergic rhinitis. Nettle polysaccharides appear to stimulate tumor necrosis factor and T-lymphocyte activity, aiding immune system response.

N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC) is an amino acid precursor to one of the most important antioxidants in the body, glutathione. Both glutathione and NAC help reduce the viscosity of mucus, which commonly thickens with hyperimmune response. By disrupting disulfide bonds as a result of its sulfur content, NAC naturally thins mucus. Thinner mucus, along with trapped and unwanted particles, can be more easily expelled from the lungs, promoting healthy airways.
