FLU AND COLD
What is flu?
Flu is a viral droplet infection transmitted through air and during direct contacts between people. The symptoms include: high fever over 39*C, shivers, cough, headache, running nose and aching joints and muscles.
Full recovery takes about 14 days since the first symptoms appear.
Why is flu so dangerous?
Uncured flu may lead to some serious complications. The most common are: pneumonia, bronchitis, ear inflammation, myocarditis and cerebrospinal fever. Flue can cause serious neurological complications or even death. It is estimated that during the whole 20th century flue was fatal for over 50 million people.
What is cold?
Cold is a viral infection of the upper respiratory tract and is one of the most common diseases in the world. People with strong immune system can combat this disease in a couple of days and usually do not require any medical assistance.
Most of the infections we catch are colds, however we often tend to call those infection “flu”, what is not true.
Flu is a serious disease that should never be disregarded, as the complications it may cause severe damage in our organisms and lead to long-lasting health problems.
When people talk about cold they often mention the problem of “lack of time”. What does it mean? It means that many of us have no time for being sick and to recover properly, we would better even neglect and forget about such infection. As a result w often overdose pharmaceuticals available without prescription that we consider as “safe” or even insist on a doctor to have him prescribe us some antibiotics that will combat the disease as fast as possible. Such actions are reckless and can have serious consequences. Every antibiotic weakens your immune system, which is responsible for dealing with infections and also purges the natural bacterial flora in the bowels, what makes you more vulnerable for future infections.
This is why using natural dietary supplements that can strengthen your natural bacterial flora is so important. What is more, the should be taken not only when you take medicines. One of the recommended supplements is AC-Zymes, containing living Lactobacillus acidophilus bacterial cultures, which were discovered by a Russian Noble prize winner Ilya Ilyich Mechnikov. He observed that in some areas of southern Europe people live longer and after a series of tests he found that their diet contains a lot of curdy milk, being a rich source of this bacteria.
Natural medicines for fighting against flu and cold
Let’s invest in prophylaxis!
We should start from a very important issue – what should we do to prevent diseases?
We need to nourish our organisms – supply the essential nourishments that it requires to work properly: vitamins, minerals etc. Wonderful effects can be achieved using one of the multivitamin supplements from the Vital series. Each is designed for people with one of the blood groups:
- Vital 0, Vitamins + herbal extracts for people with blood group 0
- Vital A, Vitamins + herbal extracts for people with blood group A
- Vital AB, Vitamins + herbal extracts for people with blood group AB
- Vital B, Vitamins + herbal extracts for people with blood group B
Take care of your immune system – reduce the intake of pills made of chemicals, painkillers, febrifuges, anti-inflammatory medicines and many other nonprescription drugs, not to mention antibiotics.
There are no drugs without side effects
Stimulate your immune system – strengthen your body so that it can combat hazardous bacteria and viruses without any problems. To do so have a lot of physical exercises, even so simple like going for a walk (in a bad weather too) or start training a sport that you find interesting.
Act when you start to feel sick – It is very important that you would be able to feel it and counteract, when an infection develops. What does it mean? It means consuming such nutrients that will:
- prepare your defense ability (vitamins and other substances)
- stimulate your immune system to cope with an infection
In the first group you may find: C 500 and C Plus Flavanoids which both contain vitamin C, so important for improving our defense abilities. Many people ask, if it has sense to consume a lot of vitamin C at once. This issue is crucial. Apparently, we may say it doesn’t have any sense. Most of the vitamin C pills we can buy, when dipped in water dissolve in about 30 seconds. In our organisms it means that 70% it will be removed from the system. On the other hand the C 500 supplement releases vitamin C during 10 to 15 hours after intake so its slowly absorbed by your bowels. For more information read an article entitled Timed release.
Another supplement worth mentioning is called Garlic Caps. It contains mostly garlic and parsley. For many years garlic has been regarded as a plant that can effectively combat not only minor infections, but also lower blood pressure. Although garlic used in our pills is highly concentrated, it is surrounded by a special capsule, which decompose only in the bowels. This protects the stomach and eliminates unpleasant smell from the mouth. It also enables it to be used by children. Parsley acts as a diuretic, stimulates spit production, prevents infections and restrains gallstones from forming. Sometimes is was even used for sucking as a remedy for sour throat. However, you should be careful using it this way as it may irritate your throat.
In case of cold we recommend also Chelated Zinc, containing this important mineral bond in chelate compounds, which ensure proper absorption. Zinc is a wonderful antioxidant often called “the policeman of our bodies”. Lack of it may disable the immune system and leave us vulnerable for infections. It is also essential for men, as large doses of zinc are needed for the production of sperm.
The second group encompasses the following supplements:
- Virago – herpes, viruses, cold, immunity
- ImmunAid – immunity, allergies, cancers
- ParaProtex – mycosis, bacteria, viruses, parasites
Practically every of the above supplements is useful in case of an infection. You may choose which one suits you the best. Virago is perhaps the weakest one, so it is recommended for children. Also, people with herpes should take it.
ImmunAid is a supplement containing Vilcacora, having anti-inflammatory influence. As it contains a lot of zinc it is also recommended for people suffering from allergies.
The most interesting supplement is ParaProtex, containing 10 different herbs that make a complex anti-inflammatory and antiseptic composition. Rich in antiseptic components, vitamins and minerals this supplement is able to destroy 300 dangerous viruses and 100 hazardous fungi.
We should also mention the White Willow supplement being a natural equivalent of the synthetically created aspirin. This is an old method used by our forefathers to deal with infections. In the early era of chemical medicines the huge pharmaceutical concerns created a synthetic replacement, which was much cheaper in production then the natural product. Today however, the cost of manufacturing is very similar for both natural and synthetic product, but the first one has no negative side effects like the factory-made Paracetamol.
But what if the infection was faster?
Even if our immune system failed to protect us from an illness, the above mentioned supplements are still extremely useful to fasten the recovery process. You need to double your daily dose, as this written on the box is for prophylaxis purpose.
You may also aid your organism by using some more sophisticated products, which are normally reserved for more serious diseases, but why not to give them a try as they may be very useful. You can choose from the following:
- Polinesian Noni Juice – strengthens the organism
- OCEAN 21 – viruses, detoxification, cancers
The second one seems to be superior to Noni as it is stronger and more complex. Both of the supplements enhance your immune system and stimulate it for harder work. They also supply your body with vital microelements that nourish and strengthen the organism. You may find more information about any of the above mentioned products in another part of this website.
What about our kids?
Infections are even more problematic when the affect children. They are much more vulnerable to infections and cannot take medicines designed for curing adults. Supplements that are suitable for children are:
- Lion Kids C – great for improving immunity of a child
- Lion Kids – multivitamins essential for proper growth
You can also give your child Garlic Caps and two other supplements:
AC-Zymes containing living bacterial cultures which protect the body from infections,
Bee Power (royal jelly) which provides your body with natural nutrients.
Finally, your child can also take the Polynesian Noni Juice supplement, which working has been already described.
Children should take supplements in smaller doses, but more often. You should also pay attention not to take the supplements after an abundant meal as it may decrease their efficiency. This applies to children and adults alike.
We often claim that our health is the most important thing in the world, but what actually do we do to keep our bodies healthy and fit?
Good quality dietary supplements are perhaps the best and the cheapest way you can protect your life and overall health, as preventing is better that curing.
Intake of dietary supplements containing vitamins and minerals should be based on your knowledge about healthcare, disease prevention and of course on your consciousness. This is the most economical solutions to keep your body healthy – much cheaper then possible future visits in a hospital, medical examinations and buying expensive medication !!!
