Immune Phix Nutrients
Vitamin B12
Immune Phix European Food Safety Authority health claims:
- Vitamin B12 contributes to the normal function of the immune system
- Vitamin B12 contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue
- Vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism
The body stores vitamin B12 in the liver. However, low vitamin B12 levels can occur due to a combination of:
- certain medications;
- difficulties with absorption.
Vitamin B12 in Immune Phix
- Our vitamin B12 is derived from dried Irish mushroom.
Immune Phix natural vitamin C complex
Immune Phix European Food Safety Authority health claims:
- Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system

- Vitamin C contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue
- Vitamin C contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism
- Vitamin C contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress
- Vitamin C contributes to the regeneration of the reduced form of vitamin E
Vitamin C appears to be most stable in food, hence we use natural vitamin C. Further, vitamin C from natural sources comes with additional phytonutrients such as carotenoids, flavonoids and polyphenols.
