BerriQi®, a proprietary blend of New Zealand Boysenberry and apple, offers a scientifically validated solution for respiratory health. Its unique bioactive composition, including anthocyanins, ellagitannins, and procyanidins, supports lung recovery by reducing inflammation, mucus production, and fibrosis. This makes it an ideal ingredient for dietary supplements targeting respiratory health challenges such as cold/flu symptoms, immunity support, asthma, pollution-related lung issues, and pediatric lung health. Below we will explore how BerriQi can be positioned alongside complementary ingredients for more efficacious formulations.

Cold/Flu Symptom Relief

Traditional Approaches:
Cold/flu supplements typically focus on immune boosters like elderberry extract or symptom relievers and marshmallow root. These ingredients help manage viral replication and soothe irritation but do not directly address lung inflammation.

BerriQi®’s Unique Role:

• • Rapid Action: BerriQi® has been shown to reduce airway inflammation and mucus production within one hour, providing fast relief from symptoms like coughing and congestion.
  • Synergy with Other Ingredients:
    • Elderberry Extract: Known for its antiviral properties, elderberry shortens the duration of colds. Combined with BerriQi®’s anti-inflammatory effects, this duo targets both the cause (virus) and symptoms (inflammation).
    • Zinc: Enhances immune function while regulating inflammatory responses through NF-κB inhibition, complementing BerriQi®’s cytokine suppression.
    • Marshmallow Root: Soothes throat irritation via mucilage while BerriQi® reduces airway tissue damage.

Suggested Formulation:
BerriQi® Rapid Relief Lozenges

• • BerriQi® (1300mg)
  • Elderberry extract (200 mg)
  • Zinc gluconate (10 mg)
  • Marshmallow root extract (300 mg)

 Immunity Support

Traditional Approaches:
Immunity supplements often include antioxidants like vitamin C or immune modulators such as beta-glucans to enhance white blood cell activity.

BerriQi®’s Unique Role:

• Targeted Lung Support: While traditional ingredients boost systemic immunity, BerriQi specifically reduces oxidative stress in lung tissues caused by infections or pollutants.
• Synergy with Other Ingredients:
  • Vitamin C: Enhances antioxidant defenses while supporting collagen synthesis for tissue repair13.
  • N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC): Increases glutathione levels to combat oxidative stress; complements BerriQi’s ability to reduce fibrosis12.

Suggested Formulation:
BerriQi Immune Defense Capsules

• BerriQi powder (650 mg)
• Vitamin C (250 mg)
• NAC (300 mg)

Asthma & Pollution Protection

Traditional Approaches:
Asthma-focused supplements use anti-inflammatory agents like quercetin or Boswellia Serrata to manage chronic symptoms.

BerriQi’s Unique Role:

• Fibrosis Prevention: BerriQi reduces collagen deposition in the lungs, reversing airway remodeling caused by chronic inflammation.
• Synergy with Other Ingredients:
  • Quercetin: Stabilizes mast cells to prevent histamine release; enhances BerriQi®’s anti-inflammatory effects.
  • Boswellia Serrata: Reduces leukotriene production to decrease airway constriction.

Suggested Formulation:
BerriQi® Air Shield Capsules

• BerriQi® powder (1300 mg)
• Quercetin (500 mg)
• Boswellia extract (300 mg)

Children’s Lung Health

Traditional Approaches:
Pediatric formulations often rely on honey for soothing effects or vitamin D3 for immune development but lack ingredients targeting lung repair.

BerriQi®’s Unique Role in Kids’ Health:

• Safe & Effective for Children: Both Boysenberry and apple are GRAS-certified and non-GMO, making them safe for pediatric use. Preclinical studies show no adverse effects even at high doses.
• Synergy with Other Ingredients:
  • Honey: Improves palatability while offering antimicrobial benefits; pairs well with BerriQi®’s inflammation-reducing properties.
  • Vitamin D3/Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Supports immune maturation and reduces respiratory infection risks alongside BerriQi®’s macrophage modulation.

Suggested Formulation:
BerriQi® Kids’ Lung Gummies

• BerriQi® powder (300 mg/gummy)
• Honey (500 mg)
• Vitamin D3 (400 IU)
