How To Beat The Coming Flu & Cold Season, Naturally

In the last year or so, have you experienced one or
more bad colds, or possibly had a bout with the flu? Numerous
people, some even in our own local area, have actually been
laid up with pneumonia!
 
In the last three decades there have been several viral and
bacterial epidemics-and this at a time when we should have been
able to expect the eradication of many infectious diseases. Why
is this? Why does it seem that in recent years, in spite of all
the wonderful medical help available, that people are sicker
than ever?
 
Some people say this is due to the overuse of too-potent
antibiotics or it might be because of the widespread use of
vaccines. Plus, with globalization and the increasing
availability of long distance flights, it is easier for
infections to be spread around the world. There are already a
number of infectious organisms that can and will be a major
problem to patients, physicians, health care workers and others
throughout the world.
 
With Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) now
reported in the “healthy community” it becomes clear that we
need something that can take on these superbugs! A big concern
is the possibility that multi-drug resistant germs will spread
throughout our communities. If we can reduce the extent to
which pharmaceutical antibiotics are used and not be so
dependent on them, it stands to reason that when really needed,
the drugs may be more effective.
 
What can the average person do to help prevent the common cold
or some major illness? A lot! Learning how to eat healthy, get
adequate exercise, and the right amount of sleep, are all
important to preventing illness. However, just living a
“healthy lifestyle” may not be enough to keep you from getting
sick. We have so many viruses and toxins in our environment,
that staying well can be quite a challenge.
 
But research has recently produced some really great solutions
that can help you reduce your chance of being attacked by one
of the superbugs, or if you do get hit with a superbug, the
severity of your illness probably will not be as bad. Research
has shown that low concentrations of allicin, derived from
garlic, is able to kill most of the superbugs. For more
details, go to www.4thebuzz.com.
 
Here are some statistics from a Cold & Cough study conducted by
Peter Josling. This was a double-blind, placebo-controlled
survey. The purpose of the study was to determine whether a
unique garlic supplement (Allisure) that contains stabilized
allicin could prevent colds in healthy volunteers.
 
Here are the results.
 
. 65% reduction in common cold
. 80% reduction of severity of symptoms and duration
. 90% reduction of re-infection
. Product is well tolerated and offers many other advantages
according to volunteer reports
 
It was concluded that allicin was overwhelmingly favored as a
supplement. It was also determined that garlic is effective
against salmonella, food poisoning, streptococcus and a host of
other things. Garlic can stimulate and boost the human immune
system and is used in both treatment and prevention of
diseases. Again, see www.4thebuzz.com for more details.
 
Another nutrient, ginger, when combined with allicin, has been
shown to make allicin even more effective. Ginger provides
nutritional support for the digestive and circulatory systems.
There have been 19 double-blind studies about ginger and it is
probably the best medication for treating nausea and sickness.
 
Since it may take awhile to build up your immune system to the
point where you will be able to ward off most, if not all, of
the possible superbugs that come your way, I believe that it
would be wise to start now. Take care of your body from all
angles: adequate sleep, improved nutrition, exercise, and
consider the addition of nutrition supplements. A good general
multi-vitamin and mineral supplement, plus allicin could be
great starters for you to help prevent illness in your family.
