Your Health, Natural Illness Prevention and Immune Support
The FROWNIES mantra, and the foundation for all our ingredients, products, and company standards, is based upon holistic health principles. Which also means natural, organically grown (plant based) ingredients. We believe a strong immune system is the best defense mechanism to fight against infection and illness. Do not fall prey to vicious illness; instead empower yourself to HAVE control, because you do! You have all the power you need to remain healthy by keeping your immune system strong! It is vital to have a strong immune system to sustain health.
Strengthen and support yourself and your family by acknowledging the autonomy within. Feeling empowered to learn will build autonomy within you and within those around you (especially the littlest ones around you, let's be honest, they are watching EVERYTHING). To protect you and your precious little ones sometimes demands taking preventative measures. This is what natural health practices are all about.
Healthy Immune System
The immune system can become weak from nutritional deficiencies as well as lack of physical exercise. Too much stress can also impair immune functions and compromise immunity. This increases both risk and severity of infection. An inch of prevention is worth a mile of cure.
The Immune system is made up of a network of cells and organs. The foods you eat have a huge impact on your immune system. So feeding your body foods that are dense in nutrients and contain disease-fighting properties helps to keep your immune system staying strong.
