A third of adults might miss out on Chrismtas parties. Bimuno makes sure it's not going to be you!

Don’t let flagging energy levels ruin your festive spirit this year!
Bimuno IMMUNAID offers a helping hand to keep you healthy this Christmas!

New research has revealed less than one in 10 UK adults feel 100% and on top of the world in the winter, with nearly 6 out of 10 saying that they regularly feel tired and low in energy compared to any other time of year.

Shockingly, a third (32%) admitted they have previously missed out on a Christmas or New Year’s Eve party due to feeling run down or tired. With people looking forward to some much-needed Christmas cheer this year, it would be shame for people to miss out because of their health.

The research, conducted by Opinion Matters on behalf of Bimuno IMMUNAID, also revealed that over a third (35%) of adults are feeling stressed and anxious about getting ready for Christmas such as shopping, expenses and the food preparation.

Increased stress combined with low energy levels can reduce the body’s immunity, making it difficult to fight winter infections such as colds, sore throats and flu. So, make sure you’re prepared this Christmas by stocking up on winter essentials such as Bimuno IMMUNAID, a unique second generation prebiotic supplement, proven to help maintain immune health

Dr Ellie Cannon, expert GP from Sky Living's 'Slave To Food' says, “The best way to stop feeling run down and catching colds and infections is to build up our immunity. Few people realise that around 60% of our immune system is associated with the gut, which is home to both good and bad bacteria. Stress, tiredness and sickness can reduce the amount of good bacteria which in turn can affect our ability to fight infections and stay healthy.

"Using supplements such as Bimuno IMMUNAID, which has prebiotics that help the ‘good’ gut bacteria to grow and flourish while reducing harmful ‘bad’ bacteria, is a great idea. By ensuring a healthy balance of good versus bad bacteria, we can help to maintain a healthy immune system.”

Unlike other supplements Bimuno IMMUNAID works in a unique and effective way, at the centre of our immune system, the gut. By increasing and strengthening the gut's immunity-boosting good bacteria (bifidobacteria), Bimuno works in harmony with the body’s own natural defences.

Nearly 75% of the 1131 respondents also agreed that the winter months (December through to February) were when they were at their unhealthiest, with more than half saying that they over-indulged on rich and fatty foods in December and more than a third saying they exercised less than normal. All this can further compromise the body’s immunity and decrease energy levels.

Geoff Collins, Head of Consumer Marketing for Bimuno comments, “It’s not easy to stay healthy at the best of times but especially so over the Christmas period. As this is also the time for colds and flu, keeping our immune system fit and healthy should be a key consideration. Bimuno IMMUNAID includes a unique second generation prebiotic developed with the University of Reading which has been proven in scientific studies to help as well as the added benefit of vitamin C, making it ideal for those looking for added support during the winter season.”

Bimuno IMMUNAID, a health supplement available as convenient and discreet soft chewable pastilles contains a tailored dosage of the unique second generation GOS (trans-Galacto-oligosaccharide) prebiotic ensuring to help maintain immune health.

Unlike some probiotics (‘live’ good bacteria ingested as tablets or in probiotic food stuffs), prebiotics are not digested in the stomach or small intestine, but reach the colon intact where they can be of maximum benefit. Bimuno can also be carried around in your bag as it is perfectly stable at room temperature unlike probiotics.

Once in the colon, Bimuno’s unique dual action selectively targets and feeds the body’s immunity-boosting good bacteria, bifidobacteria, while actively reducing numbers of harmful bacteria.

Bimuno IMMUNAID RRP £9.99 for 30 pastilles. Available from Boots and www.bimuno.com
