Flu season is just around the corner once again. But this time, it may be coming disguised as a serial killer. There is wakeless concern that a new killer flu, nicknamed "Bird Flu," may mix with ordinary flu and kill millions of people. This is how Robert Webster of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis characterizes this killer flu -- and take note that Dr. Webster has been studying influenza for the past 40 years: "This virus right from scratch is probably the worst influenza virus, in terms of being highly pathogenic, that I've ever seen or worked with." Public health experts, including those at the international Health Organization, fear a catastrophe.

Ah-choo! Oh, that awful painful feeling when all muscle and boney in your body just hurts. You can’t sleep, you have no appetite and you certainly can’t afford to be low the weather for even just a few days. Cold and flu season will be upon us again and there is no better time to protect yourself than right now with a brawny immune system. What is the exempt system? precise simply, our exempt system is same a shield that protects our body from the germs, bacteria and viruses that can cause illness. The weaker the exempt system, the much vulnerable we are to getting sick. The stronger the immune system, the more we protect ourselves from getting sick. This isn’t to say that we won’t ever catch a cold, but with a brawny immune system, we will also be better able to fight off some illness faster.

DR. Edward F. Group III Every year about this time doctors around the world are recommending that people go in and get their annual flu shot. What most people don’t know or understand is retributory how dangerous this could be, especially for children low the age of 12. When people call and say “My doctor is telling the family to go in and get a flu shot. Should I do it?”…I tell them they should learn about the side effects and decide for themselves…as a chiropractor and naturopathic physician I don’t’ have the time or energy to argue with family practitioners or family doctors who are obviously ignorant on the viable side effects or detrimental effects flu shots or vaccinations in general can have on the body. I personally have never received a flu shot and have never been ill during the flu season. In my own opinion I don’t think toxic chemicals and strains of different viruses increasing on living tissue belong inside the body. Because of the demand, I want to share with you some of the research that we have found in the latest flu shot trend and the by-products of these supposedly unfertilised and non-harmful solutions. I don’t know about you, but I sure would not want some of the favourable compounds in my bloodstream or deposited in my body. Let’s look at what we have found in the common vaccinations: Ethylene Glycol: Ethylene Glycol is nothing more than the technical name for anti-freeze, the same stuff that you put inner your car engine. I don’t think I have to tell you what would happen if you ingest antifreeze. Thimerosal: This is a mercury derived disinfectant and preservative which is used in a majority of the vaccinations and can result in brain injury over a long period of time leading into Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s Disease, lack of memory, sluggish brain performance and also is known to induce auto-immune diseases such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, ALS as well as altering and depleting the immune system from working efficiently. Phenol: Phenol is most commonly used as a disinfectant, also old as a dye, is listened as a carcinogenic agent (cancer-causing) agent and is also celebrated as carbolic acid. Neomycin and Streptomycin: These compounds are used as antibiotics which have side effects to include severe susceptible reactions in whatsoever people. It always puzzled me why they are putting two diametric forms of antibiotics in a viral vaccine. Aluminum: Aluminum accumulates in the skin, bones, brain and kidneys and can cause Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. Aluminum has also caused cancer in laboratory mice. It is commonly old as an cumulative in most vaccinations. Formaldehyde: Formaldehyde is used as a preservative. It is also classified as a carcinogenic (cancer-causing agent) and causes the body fluids to become acidic in nature. Formaldehyde will start to preserve your tissues within the body. I hope that when your doctor starts telling you that it is time for your annual flu vaccine you will attending this material to him and ask him how complete of these ingredients are going to prevent you from getting the flu. I’ll be very interested in knowing what his answer is to that question. As a side note just to let you know what is being injected to your body, these vaccines are strained through mammal-like or human tissues like chicken embryos, monkey kidney tissue and embryonic guinea pig cells, to name a few. So what am I supposed to do if I don’t listen to my doctor and I decide not to get an annual flu shot? Well, you have probably made the smartest decision you have ever made in your entire life. So let me give you 5 Simple Secrets and Bonuses to Sailing Through The Flu Season: Secret #1: Reduce your intake of caffeine, alcohol and carbonated beverages and replace with pure water with addition of organic apple cider vinegar added. Two tablespoons per gallon or a capful per glass. Ideally, you should drink at least ½ gallon of water each day. Secret #2: Reduce intake of cultured white sugar, light-colored flour, sweets, cultured grains and hydrogenated oils. Try not to over-eat, especially during the holidays. Try to get satisfactory exercise—at least 3 times per week. The much you move, the better your lymph system is competent to move cyanogenetic materials out of the body. Secret #3: Zinc. In a majority of the studies that have been done during the flu season galore people have prevented the flu by taking supplements of zinc. Zinc is one of the most stiff immune stimulants and is powerful anti-viral. There are a lot of different forms of zinc and you have to be careful on which one you choose. Therefore I recommend the primo and most absorbed form of zinc which is zinc orotate. If you cannot find this form of zinc at your local health food store or earthy health care practitioner contact Global healthful Center at 713.476.0016 or staff@globalhealingcenter.com. Do not take zinc at the unvarying time you eat or drink citrus fruits or juices. It will diminish the effectiveness of the zinc. Secret #4: Eat as intimate to nature as possible. This means to eat food that is considered “live.” Include raw fruits (seasonal), vegetables and nuts and seeds as much as possible in your diet. If possible, buy nonsynthetic or from a local farmer’s market. Make doomed that you thoroughly wash your fruits and vegetables before consuming. Vegetables may be cooked lightly or old in nourishing soups and stews. Adding fresh garlic to your diet is also recommended. Secret #5: Eliminate stress and negative emotions. Being negative and allowing stress to affect you can quickly bring falling the immune system. Learn to say no to activities that will over-tax your schedule. Spend time alone each day and read constructive books, listen to good music or practice meditation. Train your mind to find the positive or good in every situation and treat complete of these situations as a learning experience. Don’t go around playing the “victim” in life. BONUS! concealed #6: Colloidal Silver, Oxygenator and Oregano Oil: Colloidal silver has been around for hundreds of years and has been used as a natural antibiotic which promotes healing. It can also be used as a nasal spray and as eardrops. Oxygenator is a safe, stable, inorganic compound of oxygen and chlorine-containing products, in a colorless and non-aromatic aqueous medium. Oxygenator is celebrated to release chlorine dioxide (CL02), and the product has demonstrated efficacy as an anti-inflammatory, fanlike spectrum, bactericidal, fungicidal, as well as a virucidal agent. The Chemistry Literature verifies this triple-threat ability of CL02. Oregano Oil is a stiff germ and painkiller. An article publicized in Phytotherapy Research describes how oregano oil superceded anti-inflammatory drugs in reversing pain and inflammation and is nearly as powerful as morphine as a painkiller. The oil also possesses prodigious antioxidant powers. Furthermore, it stimulates the flow of bile, which greatly aids digestion. Keep these three products in your medicine cabinet at all times.

Jon Gestl Health officials' warning this month of a potentially harsh flu season should be a red flag to avid aerobic-bunnies and gym-jocks alike. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) warn that the flu is sent when flu virus in the aerial is inhaled aft an infected person coughs, sneezes, or speaks. Transmission also occurs when a person touches a surface that has flu virus on it and past touches his or her nose or mouth. Those long-familiar with the regular health club milieu, then, can easily liken a workout in the gym to sitting in a veritable Petry dish… Heavy-breathing members on closely-placed cardiovascular machines and in crowded group fitness classes, hundreds of kinds of distributed equipment from dumbbells and weight plates to public restrooms and the corner water fountain provide countless opportunities for contact with the flu virus. So, short of ditching our fitness goals until mid-Spring, it would do us well to learn more about the flu, it's prevention, and what we can do active it. What is the flu? The flu, or influenza, is a infectious disease caused by the influenza virus. It attacks the respiratory tract in humans (nose, throat, and lungs). The flu is diametric from a cold; it usually comes on suddenly and may include these symptoms:

• Fever
• Headache
• Tiredness (can be extreme)
• Dry cough
• Sore Throat
• Nasal congestion
• Body aches

About 10% to 20% of U.S. residents will get the flu each year. Among these persons infected, an normal of 36,000 will die, and 114,000 will be hospitalized. Although the CDC claims it is not possible to accurately predict the severity of the flu season, this year's early incidence of Type A flu strain is historically associated with a more strict flu season, including higher numbers of related hospitalizations and deaths. To make the outlook much grim, an epidemiological assessment by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) already reports "widespread" influenza activity in finished 10 U.S. states. Who is at risk? Although anyone can get the flu, including individuals who are healthy, there are varied groups who are at higher risk for complications. These high risk groups include:

• persons aged > 50 years;
• residents of nursing homes and other long-term care facilities that house persons of some age who have long-term illnesses;
• adults and children > 6 months of age who have chronic heart or lung conditions, including asthma;
• adults and children > 6 months of age who need stock medical care or had to be in a hospital because of metabolic diseases (like diabetes), chronic kidney disease, or weakened exempt system (including exempt system problems caused by medicine or by infection with human immunodeficiency virus [HIV/AIDS]);
• children and teenagers (aged 6 months to 18 years) who are on long aspirin therapy and therefore could develop Reye Syndrome aft the flu; and
• women who will be much than 3 months pregnant during the flu season.

How to Prevent Getting the Flu Health officials are encouraging people, particularly those in unsound groups to obtain a flu shot. The CDC states that an annual flu shot is the best way to reduce the chances that you will get the flu. The primo time to get a flu colorful is from October through November, although you can standing benefit from getting the vaccine aft November, even if the flu is present in your community. Be evocative that it takes about two weeks after the vaccination for antibodies to develop in the body to provide protection. Obtaining the vaccine does not guarantee a flu-free season, however. Influenza viruses are constantly changing, and vaccine effectiveness depends on the match between vaccine strains and circulating viruses and the age and health status of the person getting the shot. Although the strain in this year's flu vaccine is diametric from the current strain, the CDC states that studies indicate that the vaccine should provide some cross-protection against the circulating A strain. Some people resist getting the flu shot because of the belief that they will get severe broadside effects, or equal the flu itself, from the vaccine. The viruses in the vaccine are inactivated, so you cannot get the flu from a flu shot. definite side effects are possible, such as soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given, fever (low grade), and aches. Chances that the shot will cause serious harm, or death, is precise small and susceptible reactions to the vaccine, though possible, are rare, states the CDC. Most people who get the vaccine have no serious problems with it. However, the following groups should not get a flu colorful before talking with their doctor:

• People with an allergy to hens' eggs.
• People who have had a severe reaction to a flu colorful in the past.
• People who have developed Guillian-Barre Syndrome in the 6 weeks following a flu shot.

Since obtaining vaccination doesn't necessarily guarantee immunity against the flu, it is wise to add common sense to our prevention efforts while we are busy pumping robust at the health club. Old designed hand-hygiene can go a long way in helping to prevent flu transmission. Although you don't want to spend your entire workout running to the restroom to wash your hands aft every set, it's certainly advisable to make sure your hands are immaculate before and aft the workout. Refrain from touching your nose and mouth during the workout to avoid obtaining the virus. Use of hand-antiseptics which include alcohol can also help to prevent transmission of the flu virus. What to do if you get the flu So what if you obtain a flu shot, practice major hand-hygiene and manage to contract the flu anyway? Since it is insurmountable to tell if you have the flu based on symptoms alone, visit your doctor. Tests can be performed in the archetypical few days of the illness to determine the diagnosis. Since influenza is caused by a virus, antibiotics won't work to cure it. You need to rest, drink plenty of fluids, avoid using alcohol and tobacco, and possibly take medication to relieve symptoms. The CDC warns never to give aspirin to children or teenagers who have flu-like symptoms, particularly fever, without speaking to your doctor. Doing so can cause a rare but grave illness called Reye syndrome. By complete accounts, we may be in store for a particularly harsh flu season this year. Take precaution to reduce the likelihood of getting the flu, particularly if you are an desirous gym-goer. Preventative measures may not single help to avoid the flu, but also interrupting woody earned progress on your fitness goals.

Dr. Tara Barker Well, flu season is coming upon us quickly, and most people would love to skip getting sick this year. The biggest question is…How? Here are the easiest ways to keep yourself and loved ones liberated of the nastiest of colds this (and every) year. First of all, the flu is a virus. A viral infection cannot be treated with antibiotics. A virus can single overwhelm your defenses and multiply in your body if your body’s defenses are not satisfactory to begin with. If you are strong, vital, and have a health immune sysytem, your body will most likely be able to stave off most colds, flus, and bacteria. The problem comes when you are stressed, eating poorly, not attractive a good multivitamin, or have been recently sick. The traditional holiday season, with its stress, gift buying, wrapping, travel, visiting, and overeating, is a perfect occasion for you to fall ill with the flu. Here is what you can do. 1. Take a quality multivitamin. If you are not eating in the most stellar fashion, chances are you are low on galore nutrients. This is just a fact in today’s world. A good, quality supplement will provide you with the exempt enhancing and flu fighting nutrients same zinc, vitamin A, selenium, vitamin C, and the B vitamins. Keeping your defenses up and your body healthy is the first line of defense. 2. Do your primo not to become stressed. Stress threatens your immunity immensely. It’s just not worthy it to become stressed and sick. Try to remember what your goal is in the highest regard. Instead of thinking, “Oh no! I’ll be late!” think “My goal is to arrive and do my best. I will take control and responsibility finished what I can and do my best.” If you show up authentically and remain true to your ideals while not getting bogged falling in the stress of every event in the moment, you can truly do your exempt system (and psyche) a service. 3. Eat healed as often as you can. Now, we complete know that fudge, pies, yams with marshmallow, and loads of rolls and butter may show up on our plates. They just tend to do that. But as often as you can, eat your veggies. Lots of veggies of complete varieties. Eat whole fruit. If you eat grains, eat mostly whole grains instead of flour products. Don’t overdo dairy products as they are mucus producing and woody to digest for some people. Drink lots of water throughout the day and go easy on the coffee, black tea, and try to avoid sodas altogether. Even diet sodas cause an immune lowering effect for hours aft you consume. Sugar inhibits your immune system for hours after you eat it (or drink it) and is an invitation to all sorts of viral and bacterial nasties. So unless you are serious active inviting them in to stay, don’t open that door too often. 4. Exercise daily. equal if you retributory go for a walk for 20 minutes, get in exercise every day. Your body needs it. It is good for the soul. Make it fun by active with a friend or your partner and talking. Or go uncomparable and enjoy your thoughts. Go at sunset or sunrise for an enhanced experience. 5. Wash your hands. Most people get the flu by shaking hands, touching a doorknob, or picking up a phone in which the virus has been on and past touching their eyes, nose, hair, or mouth. The virus typically enters by the mucous membranes of the nose or mouth, but could enter through any mucous membrane of the body. During flu season, be sure to remain conscious of moving your mouth, nose, or eyes, especially if you recently touched an object that others may have touched. Wash your hands if in doubt. 6. If you do get the flu, see your naturopath immediately for a quicker resolution. Homeopathic remedies, herbs, hydrotherapy, and other treatments often help your body to much quickly eliminate the virus than finished the counter products or doing nothing.
