What the Label Data Shows

Defend & Resist Complex is cataloged in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD) as a botanical with nutrients supplement built from 12 ingredients from Shaklee, sold in tablet or pill form. These ingredients span 5 nutrient categories, sugar, botanical, other, mineral, and 1 more, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.

Across a broader 12-ingredient formula, 12 of 12 carry no FDA reference-intake value, typical for a formula this size: larger blends tend to pull in botanicals, amino acids, and specialty compounds without an assigned Daily Value. Breadth like this isn't a red flag by itself.

Market status matters for supplement research. This product is currently listed as on-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2025-07-24. This product is actively distributed in the U.S. right now. As with every DSLD entry, that listing reflects the manufacturer's self-declared label, not an independent safety or efficacy review.
