Athletes and people with active lifestyles often experience respiratory tract symptoms (RTS), and many struggle with recurring upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs). The result is disrupted training schedules and poor physical performance. A strong immune defence is key to avoid performance setbacks caused by unwanted common bacterial and viral infections.
