Your immune system is magnificent, endlessly grinding to protect and repair your body. It needs vitamin D to do its thing, but many of us with less sunshine are deficient (looking at you, UK). Magnesium makes the vitamin D go around—literally. Together, they make tough things doable. Build up your immune system with fast-absorbing, high-strength vegan Beam & Balance sprays and multi-tasking Ready & Rested magnesium bisglycinate.
Vitamin D is both the brains and the muscle of your immune system. It regulates immune responses, reduces inflammation, and supports cell repair. But to do its thing, it needs magnesium, the hardest working mineral, to activate it. While omega-3 reduces inflammation and strengthens immune cells to fend off harmful organisms. For those who like to know it all, there are plenty more supplements to learn about in our blogs section. Read your heart out.
A healthy immune system is good news for your general wellbeing. Exercise, sleep, hydration, a balanced diet, and sunshine are the ideal, but life isn't always.. ideal. Supplements are a good way to maintain consistent support. Our high-strength vitamin D spray, omega-3 with vitamin D capsules and powerful magnesium are here to fill the gaps and keep you going all year long.
Our bodies make vitamin D from sunlight, essential for cell growth, bone health, immune support, and fertility. Here in the UK, because we get naff all sun, even the Government advises supplementing during the colder months. Magnesium is just as important. It’s essential for vitamin D to do its best work, yet most of us don’t get enough. It’s tricky to get from diet alone, and stress or exercise chip away at our stores
For daily essentials to keep you thriving year-round, our Beam & Balance spray delivers the UK's most potent vitamin D in just three sprays a day. Or try two capsules of Rise & Shine—our omega-3 and vitamin D combo—every day. Take three Ready & Rested magnesium bisglycinate capsules to give you your maximum daily dose and complete the immunity loop.
Beam & Balance is the UK's most powerful vitamin D3 and K2 spray, flavoured with natural peppermint oil. With just 3 sprays, you get 4,000 IU (100 micrograms) of vitamin D3, perfectly balanced with 100 micrograms of K2 to support your immune system, bones, teeth, and muscles. We've combined these two because together, they're even more effective for bone and heart health. It's a 2-for-1 for your immunity.
Available unflavoured for those who want the potent vitamin D3 and K2 combination but prefer a neutral taste.
Ready & Rested is a hardworking bisglycinate magnesium. Involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body—including those critical for immune function. We need magnesium to activate vitamin D, which relies on magnesium for proper absorption in the body. Together, magnesium and vitamin D help regulate immune responses, reducing inflammation by balancing stress-related cytokines.
Immunity supplements provide essential nutrients that help support your body's ability to fend off infections, reduce inflammation, and recover from damage. Vitamin D, which we get from sunlight, is crucial for immune function, while magnesium helps support its absorption and helps lower inflammation. Vitamin C fuels your defences, vitamin A bolsters them, zinc helps fight off invaders, and omega-3 supports cell regrowth and reduces inflammation. Together, these nutrients keep you strong and resilient. As a British brand, we create potent vitamin D, magnesium and omega-3 supplements because it's hard to get enough from food alone, and our location doesn't quite cover it on this rainy island.
Taking immunity supplements helps support your body in building a strong and resilient immune system. Think of it like layering up for a long trek: you'll be prepared to weather the inevitable downpours, endure baltic winds and unseasonable sun exposure as you reach the summit. In other words, it helps you defend against infections, recover more quickly from illness, and bounce back faster from injuries or weaknesses.
Your body isn't a machine, and there's no single method for improving immunity. But here's what we know: Exercise you enjoy does two important things: raising your heart rate to improve circulation (doctors recommend 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week), and getting a sweat on helps flush out toxins. Drinking enough water moves nutrients around your body and helps get rid of the nasties. Then comes the impossible feat: reducing stress and getting enough sleep. Whether it's yoga, meditation, or rage rooms—whatever works for you—find ways to lower the cortisol running riot in your body and replenish it with real rest. Finally, if your diet or lifestyle is depleting your vitamins and minerals, or age is taking its toll, you might want to consider supplements. We know this great brand...
Vitamin D is supported by significant research, enough that the EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) has approved several health claims. Without sufficient vitamin D, we may be at greater risk of autoimmunity and infection. Even the British government recommends a minimum daily dose.

There are no known side effects when taking Rise & Shine, Beam & Balance or Ready & Rested as directed. However, as with all supplements, exceeding the recommended dose can lead to potential health issues.
If you're on blood-thinning medication, avoid taking vitamin K2, which is included in Beam & Balance.
Ready & Rested: It’s possible to take too much magnesium. In the short term, this would lead to digestive discomfort, loose stools or diarrhoea. It's extremely rare, but magnesium can build up in the system over time, leading to more serious side effects. To stay on the safe side, stick to our recommended dosage, and if you have any concerns, check in with your GP or Health Practitioner.
All three supplements are suitable for children but with specific age recommendations.
Beam & Balance spray makes dosage simple: Spray inside the cheek or under the tongue for maximum absorption.
Recommended doses:
Rise & Shine is formulated for those aged 12 and above.
Recommended dose:
One capsule is safe for children aged 4 and above, but the size may be too large for younger children to swallow.
Recommended doses:
Teens & adults (14+ years): Up to 3 capsules a day
Rise & Shine and Beam & Balance Unflavoured are suitable (and beneficial) during pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, always check with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplements during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Magnesium is generally considered safe during pregnancy. However, we recommend limiting your intake of Ready & Rested to a maximum of 2 capsules (250mg) per day.
Omega-3 fats, vitamin D, and magnesium are absorbed quickly into the bloodstream, so you may notice some benefits early on. However, if you're correcting a deficiency, have a health condition, or experience high stress, poor sleep, an imbalanced diet, or excess alcohol, it may take longer to see meaningful improvements
Everyone’s different, and factors like diet, absorption rate, and overall nutrient levels will influence how quickly you feel a difference. Generally, we recommend reassessing after 1-3 months of consistent use
Keep supplements out of reach of children. Never use if the safety seal is damaged or missing. Always supervise children taking any supplements.

Good news: Our super-strength vitamin D Beam & Balance sprays (peppermint and unflavoured) are both suitable for vegans and vegetarians. The cholecalciferol that makes up vitamin D is 100% plant-origin, produced from algae with MCT from coconut oil. While many D3 supplements contain cholecalciferol from sheep's wool, ours never does. All ingredients in Ready & Rested magnesium, including the capsule shell, are suitable for vegans
Rise & Shine isn't suitable for vegetarians or vegans as it contains fish oil. Don't despair, though - we make a great vegan alternative, Vim & Vigour our high-strength omega-3 with the powerful antioxidant astaxanthin for added immune support. You can read up on astaxanthin, here.
