Immune Support
Antioxidants and anti-inflammatories regulate immune signalling, reduce chronic immune load, and support T-cell and macrophage function.
Chronic Inflammation Weakens Immunity
When your body is inflamed (from stress, diet, or infection), the immune system becomes overactivated but less effective:
- Inflammatory cytokines (like TNF-α and IL-6) increase system-wide
- Over time, this can exhaust immune cells (especially macrophages and T-cells)
- This leads to slower recovery, more frequent infections, or autoimmune imbalance
Reducing chronic inflammation is key to maintaining immune resilience.
Curcumin Modulates Immune Function
Curcumin is not just anti-inflammatory, it also:
- Regulates immune cell activity (T-cells, B-cells, and dendritic cells)
- Balances cytokine production to prevent overactivation
- Enhances antibody response and supports immune memory
A 2007 review in the journal Immune Network outlined curcumin’s immunomodulatory effects, showing it enhances immune defense while calming chronic immune stress.
Gingerol Supports Respiratory & Immune Health
- Gingerol has antimicrobial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory effects
- Supports mucosal immunity, especially in respiratory infections
- Stimulates circulation and natural killer (NK) cell activity
Ginger is widely used in traditional medicine for colds and flu, and its bioactive compounds show broad antimicrobial activity in lab and clinical studies.
Antioxidants Are Critical to Immune Function
- Immune cells generate free radicals to kill pathogens—but too many can damage your own cells
- Curcumin, gingerol, and eugenol (from cloves) buffer this oxidative load
- This supports immune cells without creating collateral stress
Summary
Ritual Cubes support immune health through:
- Reducing systemic inflammation
- Enhancing immune cell balance
- Providing antioxidant defence to protect immune tissues
