Building Early Immunity: Nucleotides and Key Nutrients

How nucleotides, vitamins A, C, D, zinc and selenium work together to support an infant's developing immune system.

An infant is born with an immature immune system that matures rapidly during the first two years. Nutrition is one of the most powerful levers to support this maturation.

The role of nucleotides

Nucleotides are building blocks of DNA and RNA. Research shows that dietary nucleotides support antibody response after vaccination and improve gut barrier integrity in formula-fed infants.

Dreamlac immunity stack

Every Dreamlac Gold formula combines nucleotides with vitamins A, C, D, zinc and selenium, alongside GOS/FOS prebiotics that strengthen the gut-immune axis where most immune cells live.
