Feeling like you might be coming down with something has become a common concern for many, especially with daily stress and shifting weather conditions. A locally developed herbal drink, ImmuniPlus, is positioning itself as a convenient option for those looking to support their overall wellness.

ImmuniPlus, developed by Cebu-based wellness company Immuni Global Inc., was first launched in Cebu in 2021 before expanding to other parts of the country. The ready-to-drink herbal supplement comes in a pocket-sized sachet designed for easy use.

According to Jose Aaron Roska Espina, Chief Executive Officer of Immuni Global Inc., the idea behind the product began with a simple observation.

"I noticed that a lot of them looked very tired, even though it was very early in the morning," Aaron said. 

"I wanted to make something that could help these people get through their day," he added.

The product contains a blend of ginger, turmeric, spirulina and moringa, ingredients commonly associated with immune support and relief from fatigue. A cocoa variant is also available, which the company said was developed not simply as a flavor alternative but as another wellness option.

The company said one of the product’s key distinctions is its liquid format, which allows consumers to take it without preparation.

"We've always wanted to be your everyday wellness partner," Aaron said. 

"It's a trusted brand that you know will be there for you when you need it, and it's convenient, and you can bring it around with you," he added.

As an All-Filipino company, the all-natural ingredients in ImmuniPlus are proudly harvested by Filipino farmers, and a testament to the potency and high quality of local produce.

"We really advocate for our farmers,"Aaron said.

"We wanted to showcase the natural ingredients that we can find here in the Philippines, especially ginger, turmeric and malunggay," he added.

In a market filled with quick fixes and competing claims, the idea is simpler and something small, easy to carry, and ready when needed. Whether it becomes a staple in households may depend less on promises, and more on how it fits quietly into the routines people already live by.
