The cold and flu season comes upon us every year and in order to fight we must plan ahead. The health department tells us the way to do this is by getting the needle stuck in our arm, yet what the fail to say is it only works for about 2 months (if at all)and you are supposed to get the shot a few months prior to the flu season starting.
"The following paragraph was taken from an article in NaturalNews.com and written by Leigh Erin Connealy, M.D."
According to Dr. J. Anthony Morris, the former Chief Vaccine Control Officer at the FDA, "There is no evidence that any influenza vaccine, thus far developed, is effective in preventing or mitigating any attack of influenza." The influenza vaccine has such toxins it as ethylene glycol (a.k.a. antifreeze), formaldehyde, aluminum (linked to Alzheimer's disease & known to produce cancer in mice) and thimerosol (a form of mercury, the most toxic of heavy metals.) Thimerosol has had so much scrutiny in the past decade that it has been banned in all childhood vaccinations in the United States, yet it still reminas in the influenza vaccine today.
Bolstering the immune system:
Eating the colors: the more colorful nutritious fruits and vegetables the better.
Though you are surrounded by germs and they are unavoidable, the health of your immune system determines whether or not you get sick. One way of doing this is by increasing the amounts of whole, unprocessed foods into your regular diet giving your body the much needed vitamins, minerals and natural antioxidants it will need to fight on your behalf. If you choose to also supplement with vitamins it needs to be whole foods vitamins without all the fillers and additives. We have some good information on one so contact us if you need.
Continue or begin regular exercise as a part of your normal weekly routine; if you only have time to do aerobic exercise try for at least 30-45 minutes per day 4-5 days per week. This will create more blood flow throughout your body and the blood carries the oxygen, vitamins, minerals, enzymes and such to all the organs that need them.
Whole~ unprocessed foods? Foods that are in their most natural state and which have not been treated with pesticides, antibiotics and other harmful additives will do more to boost your natural antioxidants and help you fight sickness. Fresh fruits and vegetables (organic or local grown are best) are the best choice, yet if they are not available buy frozen over canned as they will offer more essential ingredients and not as many preservatives.
Increase your vitamin C and E intake as they are excellent for helping to enhance your immune system. Good sources would be red peppers, parsley, kiwi, broccoli and citrus fruits vitamin C and olive/coconut oils, seeds, grains etc for vitamin E. In the event you still get sick, building your immune system with some of these simple steps will help your recovery time to be speedier.
Go to bed~ that’s right it has been proven through much study those who get 8+ hours asleep are less likely to fall to the virus and sickness of the cold and flu than those who sleep less. Sleep helps your body to restore and recover while fatigue will continue to tear your body down.
