T-Cell & NK-Cell Support Formula

Supporting the Body’s Natural Immune Defense

Why Immune Support Matters in Cancer Care

Our immune system plays a critical role in identifying and responding to abnormal cells. Two of the most important immune cells involved in this process are T cells and Natural Killer (NK) cells.

• T cells help coordinate immune responses and recognize abnormal or damaged cells.

• NK cells are part of the body’s first-line defense and help identify and remove cells that are not behaving normally.

In cancer and chronic illness, these immune cells are often not broken, but exhausted or suppressed due to inflammation, stress, treatment burden, or prolonged immune activation.

This formula was designed to support immune balance and resilience, not overstimulation.

What This Formula Is Designed to Do

This herbal blend is intended to:

• Support T-cell and NK-cell function

• Help reduce immune exhaustion

• Quiet background inflammation that interferes with immune signaling

• Support immune coordination during or after cancer treatment

• Improve overall immune resilience and recovery

It is supportive, not aggressive, and is meant to work alongside conventional medical care, not replace it.

How These Herbs Support Immune Function

Research shows that several of the herbs in this formula help the immune system work more effectively, not more forcefully.

Medicinal Mushrooms (Reishi & Turkey Tail)

• Studied for their role in supporting immune balance

• May help improve NK-cell activity and immune communication

• Widely researched in integrative oncology settings as immune-supportive agents

Astragalus & Codonopsis

• Traditionally used to support immune strength and recovery

• Studied for their role in immune signaling and resilience

• Often used to support immune recovery during periods of stress or fatigue

Green Tea

• Rich in catechins such as EGCG

• Shown to support immune regulation and reduce inflammatory signaling

• Supports cellular health and metabolic balance

Zhi Mu, Chi Shao & Licorice Root

• Help calm inflammatory pathways that can interfere with immune function

• Support immune clarity by reducing excessive immune “noise”

• Promote balance rather than stimulation

Together, these herbs help create an internal environment where the immune system can function more clearly and efficiently.

What This Formula Is Not

This formula is not:

• A cancer treatment on its own

• An immune “booster” that overstimulates the system

• A replacement for oncology care

Instead, it supports the host environment so the immune system is better able to do its job.

When This Formula May Be Helpful

This formula may be appropriate for individuals who:

• Feel fatigued or depleted

• Have lab signs of immune stress or inflammation

• Are undergoing or recovering from cancer treatment

• Want gentle, ongoing immune support

• Are focusing on immune resilience and recovery

Safety & Compatibility

• Designed to be compatible with chemotherapy, radiation, and immunotherapy

• Intended for long-term supportive use

• Should be used as part of an overall care plan guided by a qualified practitioner

A Simple Way to Think About It

This formula helps the immune system work smarter, not harder.

By supporting balance, reducing inflammation, and improving immune coordination, the body is better prepared to respond to stress, treatment, and healing.

Important Note

Herbal support works best when combined with:

• appropriate medical care

• rest and sleep

• nutrition

• emotional and nervous system support

Healing is not about doing more — it’s about creating balance.
