My thyroid starting being sluggish after 40, I stopped the prescription medication about two yrs ago because it was just slowly depleting the thyroid by taking synthetic thyroid hormones the body pretty much shuts it down. been taking Ashwagandha levels normal doing good. it only works for under active thyroid it helps to increase the thyroid function. that herb too helps balance the immune system and blood sugars it’s a good herb to.

cool haven’t heard of it I’ll check it out thanks.
There is a company nhc.com that makes a product called I-Thriod in a couple of mg levels but it has three different types of Iodine/Iodide/potassium in one dose. I’ve tried it before using ashwagandha think I might get some more it’s not to expensive. Here’s the low dose ingredients.
Iodide 3.75mg
---(from Potassium Iodide USP)
Iodine USP 2.5mg
---(from Free Iodine USP)
Potassium 1.2mg

Some more boosters,
Moringa, black elderberry and Ashwagandha
these are more available through local outlets then the OP, I have been using Ashwagandha for my thyroid for 2 years but Ashwagandha is excellent also at boosting the immune
of coarse can’t leave out the Vitamin C a huge immune supporter as well, possibly at the top of list.
the original posted have greatly help those who get malaria and other viruses and infections, guduchi is near the top for fighting infections and viruses easing the symptoms of the infected.
Guduchi is a little harder to get i have just ordered some through Swanson vitamins the price is reasonable.

I find the sun my biggest immune booster and when I wake up tired, just picking up those first sun rays for 20-30 minutes on as much exposed skin as possible, while being grounded or earthed, gives me a lot of energy. Remember that we are electrical beings (so glorified batteries with 83% water and two electrical devices namely the heart and the brain) and are hardwired with the earth and wirelessly connected with the sun) since the sun provides two third of the energy levels for the mitochondria. The sun also sets our carcadian rhythm or biological clock in the morning when you do the sun rise (at 1600 Kelvin light strength) you not only tell your body what time it is, until 10am you build are the hormones from dopamine, to growth hormones, to histamine and Melatonin (sleep hormones) that the body then can release at night after 4 hours of darkness.
Everything we eat in the end is turned into electrons or pure energy so if we don't get enough sunlight, like in winter time, you guessed it,
we start to eat more to compensate with food to get enough energy. At the mitochondrial membrame (little workers in the cell that provide ATP) there are no fat, lipid or protein chain convertors, but only electron chain convertors, so yes, everything we consume turns into energy for the cells to keep going. When I then started eating raw oysters (yuk) I found more energy again, and this is because raw oysters are the highest source of DHA which builds melanopisn, which is a UV receptor in skin and eyes. A deficiency in DHA will stop you getting all the benefits from the sun.
I also found that when I use blue blockers at night to protect my eyes from blue light (all electrical light from led's pc screens, tv and mobiles is 6500 Kelvin) I sleep better. The reason is this. The sun is like a clock and our bodies are made to be up at sun rise, and in bed at dark. In the morning the sun rise has the light strength of 1600 Kelvin and it goes to 6500 Kelvin at noon and then slowly goes down again.
If you don't protect your eyes when it gets darker, you are telling your body, by watching tv, pc screen or your mobile, that it is actually noon again and your body start to make cortisol again. This is also the reason why people can't fall easily asleep anymore after they have gone to the toilet and have looked at their mobiles to see what time it was or turned the lights on.. You just told your body at 2am that it's noon again, so start making cortisol and stop releasing melatonin.
Since our bedroom is the place where our bodies should be able to repair and recove, it's very important to be protected from all light sources and to sleep as dark as possible. But, also to protect oneself from wirless radiation that falls outside our visual spectrum. While you can't see the light frequencies or radiation from WiFi, radar, towers and mobile phone with your eyes... your cells do pick it up and it affects your sleep and thus your immune system, as your body goes into a fight or flight response and that energy has to come from some where. Over time you are working towards chronic fatigue this way. Anyway, that was my two cents.

Most of my cooking includes plenty of onion and garlic and usually also ginger. In terms of pills, I am taking Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Vitamin B12 gummies, fish oil, a multivitamin, and a probiotic daily. Probiotic helps with gut issues, where most of immune system issues come from. Recently I started taking the Areds 2 eye vitamin because I noticed some changes, I think caused by too much time onscreen. With that and my multivitamin, I'm getting plenty of zinc per day. After I finish my B12 gummies, I'm going to stop that since my new multivitamin has enough B12. Once COVID-19 is over, I'll probably stop taking Vitamins C and D.
I walk and take public transportation so I get about 30 minutes of outside speed walking per day at least that way. Because of the quarantine, I haven't been outside much but I've been going outside almost daily for a walk this past week.

Bacillus subtilis is one of the best single probiotic for the immune system helps fight off infections, 70% of the immune depends on a healthy gut, this one is good for older adults with low immune.
