Starting from the age of 25, the amount of collagen production in the body gradually decreases, and women are aging faster than men. There are many external factors such as UV, stress, diet choices and sugar intake which can leads to collagen loss. Replenishing collagen could prevent cells aging and maintain the skin firmness.

Yes, there are collagen which can be absorbed through daily diet but the amount of collagen in the daily diet is too little. Foods with higher collagen content includes pig skin, fish skin and shark fin. A large amount of these foods is required to be consumed daily to replenish body collagen.

What is GARD U?
GARD U is a science-backed nutrition designed to protect respiratory immunity. It is not a medication. With three key scientific ingredients, it works through four mechanisms—“Block, Defend, Relieve, Repair”—to build an internal active defense system, helping the body respond faster and more effectively to viruses and bacteria.
How is GARD U different from general immune boosters?
GARD U does more than boost immunity—it blocks viral attachment at the source, inhibits viral replication, eases inflammation, and repairs respiratory tissues. Most products only “boost immunity,” but GARD U provides more comprehensive and advanced respiratory-focused protection.
Do I need to be sick to take GARD U?
No. GARD U is a daily preventive product—especially in schools, childcare centres, and crowded places. Taking it in advance helps maintain a stronger defense state.
Is GARD U too strong? Is it safe for children?
No. GARD U uses natural plant polyphenols, berries, and Tiger Milk Mushroom. It’s gentle, non-drug, non-irritating, and safe for children aged 3 and above.
Product Knowledge
How is GARD U different from R3 / R3 mini?
GARD U focuses on “virus protection + respiratory repair,” specifically for the respiratory system. R3 focuses on whole-body cellular repair and antioxidant support. R3 mini focuses on children’s immune, gut, and brain support. They target different needs and can be taken together for more comprehensive support.
What makes Fenactive® special?
Fenactive® is a Poland patented blend of black chokeberry and elderberry with extremely high antioxidant capacity. Studies show it significantly inhibits viral replication, especially influenza (H1N1) and coronavirus models, while activating the body’s first immune defense.
What makes BerriQi® special?
BerriQi® is a New Zealand patented blend of boysenberry and apple. Clinical studies show it reduces mucus buildup, suppresses lung inflammation, repairs inflammatory scarring, and restores balanced immune responses in sensitive airways.
What does Tiger Milk Mushroom do?
Tiger Milk Mushroom is a Malaysian heritage respiratory herb that helps regulate airway inflammation, reduce bronchial sensitivity, and repair respiratory epithelium. Studies show it can reduce airway inflammation markers by approximately 33%.
Serving Suggestion
Can GARD U be taken with R3 or R3 mini?
Yes. Their functions are different and highly complementary, with no duplication or conflict. Taking them together provides more complete immune and respiratory protection.
If a child already takes R3 mini, is GARD U still needed?
Yes. R3 mini focuses on immunity plus gut and brain support, while GARD U targets respiratory virus protection and airway repair. They are positioned differently. If the child needs extra respiratory protection, GARD U can be added.
Can it be taken with medication when sick?
Keep a 1–2 hour gap to avoid affecting GARD U absorption.
Will long-term use cause dependency or reduced effect?
No. GARD U is a natural nutritional supplement and does not create “tolerance” or dependence like medication. Long-term use helps maintain stronger respiratory protection.
Suitable For
Who is GARD U suitable for?
Especially suitable for children aged 3+, working adults, seniors, people prone to cough or nasal sensitivity, those with weaker immunity, and people with high exposure (e.g., teachers, healthcare workers, frontline staff). It’s also suitable for those recovering from viral infections.
Is it suitable for vegetarians?
Yes. The formula contains no animal-derived ingredients.
Can pregnant women take GARD U?
The formula is gentle and food-grade, but because each pregnancy is different, it’s recommended to consult a doctor before use.
Can breastfeeding mothers take GARD U?
Yes. The ingredients are natural and non-drug, and are safe for breastfeeding mothers.
Is it suitable for people with asthma, nasal allergies, or sensitive airways?
Very suitable—because Fenactive, BerriQi, and Tiger Milk Mushroom can reduce mucus buildup, lower airway sensitivity, ease inflammation, and repair respiratory damage. The improvement for these groups can be very noticeable.
