The active ingredient in COLD-FX can't be duplicated.

  • COLD-FX is a natural product derived from the root of North American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius)
  • Each capsule contains 200 mg of CVT-E002, a unique extract of poly and oligosaccharides that have been shown in laboratory and clinical studies to strengthen the immune system
  • COLD-FX has a different chemical profile and pharmacological properties than other ginseng products

 ChemBioPrint® ensures quality and consistency from batch to batch.

  • A patented standardization technology that uses: 
    • Chemical fingerprinting to identify and isolate the active components
    • Biological fingerprinting to verify the effect of the extract 
    • Precise manufacturing to ensure batch to batch consistency

COLD-FX has a unique mechanism of action.    

  • Clinical and lab studies have demonstrated that CVT-E002 enhances the immune system to optimal levels
  • CVT-E002 works in a highly unique manner by targeting an early warning system of "Toll-like receptors" to alert the body to the first presence of a pathogen.   Activation of this system then triggers the Th1 adaptive immune response to specifically target the pathogen

COLD-FX has been shown to supplement the flu shot's effectiveness.

  • A recent randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled multi-centre trial of 780 healthy seniors showed that greater protection is provided when COLD-FX is taken   in addition to the flu shot and that the product   reduced colds and flu by 36%
