Guest guest Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 _Could These 4 Natural Remedies Help With the H1N1 Swine Flu?_ (http://ezinearticles.com/?Could-These-4-Natural-Remedies-Help-With-the-H1N1-Swi\ ne-Flu? & id=2733279) Here are 4 supplements that may prove beneficial before and during the swine flu: • Vitamin D-Recent studies show that vitamin D is essential to boost your immune system and fight off influenza. Sunshine is the best way to get your vitamin D, and during the winter a good quality cod liver oil or vitamin D3 capsules. • Vitamin C-Another essential vitamin in boosting and maintaining the immune system. • Olive leaf extract- It is anti-microbial and anti-viral and used by many in the herbal field to combat the flu. Olive leaf enters into an infected cell and stops viruses from replicating. It is available in capsule or liquid form. • Probiotics-These are the good bacteria to put back into your digestive system. === _Swine Flu Prevention Tips from Dr. Vinay Goyal « Live Well America_ (http://www.livewellamerica.org/blog/?p=478) * Frequent hand-washing. * “Hands-off-the-face†approach except to eat, bathe, etc. * Gargle twice a day with warm salt water (use Listerine if you don’t trust salt). H1N1 takes 2-3 days after initial infection in the throat/ nasal cavity to proliferate and show characteristic symptoms. Simple gargling prevents proliferation. In a way, gargling with salt water has the same effect on a healthy individual that Tamiflu has on an infected person. Don’t underestimate this simple, inexpensive and powerful preventative method. * Clean your nostrils at least once every day with warm salt water, swabbing both nostrils with cotton buds dipped in warm salt water is very effective in bringing down viral population. * Boost your natural immunity with foods that are rich in Vitamin C, or Vitamin C tablets that contain Zinc to boost absorption. * Drink as much of warm liquids as you can. Drinking warm liquids has the same effect as gargling, but in the reverse direction. They wash off proliferating viruses from the throat into the stomach where they cannot survive. === _Sixty million years of evolution says vitamin D may save your life from swine flu_ (http://www.naturalnews.com/027231_Vitamin_D_immune_system_vaccines.html) (NaturalNews) If you lack vitamin D, your immune system can't " activate " to do its job. That's why people who are deficient in vitamin D so frequently get winter colds. But people who are high in vitamin D have the nutritional power to activate their immune system so that it can respond to invading pathogens. Crucially, vitamin D also manages to balance immune response and prevent inflammation -- the leading cause of death in the 1918 influenza _pandemic_ (http://www.naturalnews.com/pandemic.html) . So not only does vitamin D protect you from the initial infection; it also prevents your body from over-reacting and killing you with inflammation (which typically gets expressed as bacterial pneumonia, an infection of the lungs). Sources for vitamin D: Where can you get vitamin D? There's some vitamin D naturally present in fish oils and marine omega-3 oils, but the two most abundant sources are: 1) Sunlight 2) Vitamin D supplements You can get sunlight for free by exposing your skin to the sun. You can get vitamin D supplements at _www.Vitacost.com_ (http://www.vitacost.com/) or just about any vitamin retailer (local or online). Vitamin D is easy to get. Your body actually manufactures it when you're exposed to the sun. You'll need at least 4000 IU a day just to prevent deficiency, according to many _nutrition_ (http://www.naturalnews.com/nutrition.html) experts. Some people I know take 8000 IU a day. I personally don't take any vitamin D but I get at least 30 minutes of sunlight every day near the equator (which is a unique geographical situation, I understand, that not everybody can replicate).

Follow the directions on the individual labels. - _Your Drug-Free Guide to Digestive Health_ (http://www.naturalpedia.com/book_Your_Drug-Free_Guide_to_Digestive_Health.html) by Heather Caruso === _MMS is a Deterrent against New Flu Varieties_ (http://jimhumble.biz/biz-newflu.htm) MMS is a broad-spectrum germicidal agent, but it is quite different from antibiotics in its approach to the killing of viruses and bacteria. Persons who are curious about the germicidal properties of MMS can review a graphic brochure _[ Here ]_ (http://jimhumble.biz/biz-brochure.pdf) dealing with the oxidative chemistry properties of chlorine dioxide. You can use MMS both as a preventative and as a remedy to overcome Swine Flu. The method is to take MMS on an hourly basis. Continued at: _http://jimhumble.biz/biz-newflu.htm_ (http://jimhumble.biz/biz-newflu.htm) === Dr. Mercola on Swine Flu _http://www.masslpa.org/content/dr-mercola-swine-flu_ (http://www.masslpa.org/content/dr-mercola-swine-flu) Vitamin D has been a hot research topic these past few years, and has been shown to have remarkable impact on nearly every single disease studied. .... if you are coming down with flu-like symptoms and have not supplemented with vitamin D, Dr. Cannell, one of the world's leading vitamin D experts, recommends taking 50,000 IU's a day for three days to treat the acute infection. Ultimately, your best bet is to maintain healthy levels of vitamin D around 60 ng/ml year-round. Please note that this is far higher than most doctors will refer to as " normal. " Rather it is _the optimal level you'll want to maintain for disease prevention_ (http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2002/02/23/vitamin-d-deficie\ ncy-part-one.aspx) . I strongly recommend you _watch my one-hour free vitamin D lecture_ (http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2008/12/16/my-one-hour-vitam\ in- d-lecture-to-clear-up-all-your-confusion-on-this-vital-nutrient.aspx) along with my _video on vitamin D's role in flu prevention_ (http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2008/10/21/avoid-flu-shots-v\ itamin-d-is-a-be tter-way.aspx) for more in-depth information about vitamin D's role in flu prevention. Taking care of your health to reduce or eliminate your risk of contracting the flu is always going to be your safest bet. In addition to optimizing your vitamin D levels, this past article details my other _recommendations for avoiding the flu naturally_ (http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/07/04/Warning-Swine-Flu\ -Vaccine-Coming-Soon.aspx) , and I strongly urge you to start incorporating these changes into your life today. === _Dr. Joseph Mercola’s Tips to Avoid the Swine Flu_ (http://www.drmercola.net/2009/05/dr-joseph-mercolas-tips-to-avoid-swine.html) _http://www.drmercola.net/2009/05/dr-joseph-mercolas-tips-to-avoid-swine.htm l_ (http://www.drmercola.net/2009/05/dr-joseph-mercolas-tips-to-avoid-swine.html) Get enough vitamin D - if you can’t get it naturally, you can take vitamin D3 supplements Avoid Sugar and Processed Foods – Sugar weakens your immune system Get Enough Rest Minimize Stress Exercise Increase your intake of Omega-3 Fats Wash your hands and keep them clean Eat more garlic – helps your body fight viruses, bacteria and protozoa. === SWINE FLU PREVENTION with raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar _http://www.helpnuts.com/swine-flu.html_ (http://www.helpnuts.com/swine-flu.html) For this swine flu epidemic, you will need to go to your local health food store and purchase a large bottle of raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar with the mother still in it. Do not use any other apple cider vinegar, it will not work. For maintenance a person should take two tablespoons in a glass of distilled water every 24 hrs, for preparation for this swine flu virus we recommend two tablespoons in a glass of distilled water (6 to 8 ounces) every 12 hrs., just double the dosage. Do this religiously. You will get used to the taste and you can add some honey to take the bite out if needed. How it Works: The reason this works is because raw vinegar is anti-fungal, anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and anti-microbial as well as having anti-aging properties. No known pathogen can live in an alkaline environment. Once this vinegar is present in every cell in the body on a regular basis it will turn your system alkaline. This process takes approximately 90 to 120 days for the average person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
