Quoting: ~~**Nightfall**~~They told me the flu shot would only protect me from 3 strains...so really, since the flu virus morphs, I could be as vulnerable as anyone... right. that is why i dont put much faith in the flu shot. |

Quoting: Enaidps - added -- Do you have any echinacea? No I don't, I heard that the stuff doesn't really work, but have wondered about it over the years. Thanks for the healing vibes. Most appreciated! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 600833 United States 01/25/2009 03:29 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Well, this year I did get my flu shot because I wanted to do what ever I could to prevent myself from getting what I had last year...felt like I was dying. Quoting: ~~**Nightfall**~~Getting over that horrible cold did WAY more for your immune system than a flu shot could. You now have natural antibodies against whatever you had and wouldn't have gotten it again. Anyways, eat a large dose of vitamin C, as natural as possible. Go buy some oranges. And get some garlic and try to incorporate raw garlic in your next meal. Bruschetta is a good thing to eat, lots of garlic! The garlic will help kill off whatever is infecting you. You will notice a major difference within 24 hours. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 600833Garlic is an antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral food. For medicinal purposes, try 7-8 raw cloves a day. You'll smell really garlicky for a while but it will probably help. Up to 10 grams of vitamin C should be OK to nip it, then 1 to 2 grams a day maintenance. Try a buffered (less acidic) form for tolerance. Something with a food in it like acerola cherry or rose hips is usually better than just plain ascorbic acid. If you get diarrhea, cut back until it passes. You might also go to a store that sells bulk herbs and ask them what they recommend as a tea. |
