It is known for certain that the state of human health depends on the level of immune protection. It is immunity that is a natural barrier to viruses and bacteria, which constantly strive to populate the body.

Purulent sinusitis;
Neuritis of the auditory nerve;
Pneumonia, bronchitis, tracheitis;

Drowsiness;
premature fatigue;
Constant weakness;
Nervousness, irascibility, anxiety;
Decreased appetite.
