    Very good advice from other friends above. i use Lomatium in tincture form for these problems. Vitamin C is also great, but needs to be used in 1 to 3 gram doses every 8 hours when the symptoms are acute. I have used tumeric in powder form for decades now as a daily maintenance by taking a little water into my mouth, holding it there, then taking a full teaspoon to tablespoon full of the powder and then immediately chugging a 1/4 cup of water to take it all down. This way you only have minimal taste time and you get a good volume of this super anti-oxidant into your system. In fact i give small packets of turmeric powder, i buy from a local health food store (1/3rd of a lb. for just $3.15), to many i meet, friends and strangers alike, for a variety of illnesses. The results have always been positive from the feedback i get.
    I used to hand out Louise Hay's "Heal Your Body" small paperback books as a way of helping people understand the emotional conditions that prevail in most illnesses and I found the affirmations listed for each condition a good starting point to begin a positive dialog with yourself about your inherent right to gain control of your own health. Powerfully whisper the affirmation , Say it out loud, Sing it to yourself (and those who need the healing) and think it into existence.
    Some of the Best, h.i.m.

    Heres my normal everyday procedures. I eat lots of local raw honey year round and it has done wonders for me. Cleanses the system, boost my energy levels makes me not so hungry during the day. I have lost weight and helped me stay in shape. I also use a hydrogen peroxide mouth rinse to clean my mouth and to kill any bacteria that could make me sick. Watch what foods you eat. I'm getting more vegetarian everyday and finding meat drops my vibration and makes me feel very sluggish. Watch your stress levels and get plenty of sleep. Drink plenty of water and stay away from anything artificial like sugar. Stay away from pharmaceutical drugs and please stay away from vaccines. Learn to clam your mind and center yourself and stay grounded to mother earth. I also take Peruvian Maca which helps me alot.

    In addition to what the other kind folks have offered for your healing, you need to assist your immune system by staying overly warm.

    You need to be almost sweating. It is no mistake that we get fevers. It is the immune system ramping up to fight off whatever bug is affecting the body.

    If you can wear a beanie, double socks and slippers and lots of clothing, including a blanket, it will keep your energies expanded and your immune system will not have to work harder to stay warm on top of fighting the virus/bacteria.

    If you are up to it, you also need to make yourself a big pot of spicy hot soup with cayenne pepper, turmeric, sulphur-based foods like cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, garlic and onion. The Cayenne pepper will keep your immune system stimulated and sulphur based foods assist with healing. Your sulphation pathways need a boost!

    If you are not up to making a soup, drink a very spicy hot tea at intervals of every half an hour. Add ginger, cayenne pepper, lemon juice to hot water. As spicy as you can tolerate.

    Keep taking your colloidal silver at smaller doses, every 15 minutes. As Conk so correctly surmised, viruses do multiply quickly so small doses, more regularly will assist better.

    If you have any difficulty in obtaining a lot of what has been suggested in other posts, Olive leaf extract is a very good antibacterial, anti-viral remedy.

    It is sold in most health food shops and even chemists. You will need to take small doses of this every 15 minutes too until all symptoms are gone.

    Last, but not least, if your body is in a state where you are producing mucous or if you are feeling lethargic - you need to stay away from the dairy and nuts. If your body is in a Kapha state, you don't want to aggravate it, rather alleviate it.

    Keep us posted...

    I have had the flu now for about a week....the cough, sore throat, chills and burning in my ears is just not going anywhere.....I have been taking ACV and honey in hot water, colloidal silver, large doses of D3 and lots of water.....zinc throat lozenges...noting changes from day to day......
    I haven't been to the doctors in so long I dont even know the guy who replaced my doctor when he retired about 10 years ago??
    but I have a lot of work that needs to get done and this is not helping.
    Can anyone recommend anything or is it time to just bite the bullet and go with big pharma? I hope not. My daughter recommends raw garlic but I cant stomach that idea....would garlic capsules work the same? maybe its time for some urine therapy!
    thanks all
    Yes we all (our family) take oregano oil pills, have for years. They are great and they really get rid of these types of infections. Take it on a full stomach, start out with 2 for a couple of days then reduce to one depending on how you are feeling... You should get well quickly by taking them.

    colloidal nano silver 10 ppm in aqua solution.

    dr. rima has one of if not the best from what I've researched.

    Quote While there's no argument that colloidal silver is the world’s most powerful natural antibacterial and antifungal agent, the ability of colloidal silver to protect against viral pathogens has, until recently, not been fully embraced by the medical community.

    Fortunately, startling new medical research reveals that silver may well be your #1 defense against viruses as well. Here’s what the medical evidence demonstrates…

    Hi, Have found that a form of charcoal high in C60 (Happy Tummy Charcoal) is very useful because it detoxes and re-balances the pH. This helps to ward off bugs, viruses etc. which are all sensitive to a change in the pH of their environment (i.e.your body!).

    EarthAngel, it sounds like you have so many great remidis to try and here is another. Try over the counter Sambucol (elderberry extract), it's been proven to reduce the flu better than tamaflu. Also add Epicor to strengthen the immune system. These two together helped me get through a rough virus and sinus infection!

    Good luck, hope you are feeling better.

    My way of staying healthy is cheap, safe and easy to find.

    It's baking soda, coconut oil, lots of curcuma powder (together with pepper), in every (cooked) meal and lots of garlic.

    However, starting my day with warm water with lemon on an empty stomach, has been my favorite for years.
    Every morning my intestines are saying to me: "Mmmmm, thank you...."

    It's the thing I miss most when travelling. During these times I tend to give my favorite elixirs too little attention now and then, as I don't want to be too fundamentalistic in my believes.

    Addition to Sambucol which is recommended above (and which is an excellent recommendation) the most and fast effective herb is Pelargonium. I'm not sure if it can be found in US or Canada but it is available in Europe as Umckaloabo or Kaloba. Very fast and effective relief from various upper respiratory tract infections.

    long term - MSM
    acute treatment - hydrogen peroxide

    the thing I love about H2O2 (or 3, or 4?) is that it also reveals areas under your skin and gums where viral type bacteria are taking root... by lighting them up as white spots, caused by the oxidation, release of oxygen (tiny bubbles) resulting from direct contact with anaerobic (i.e. non oxygen based, fermenting type) pathogens... burns them up (oxidates them) on contact

    oxygen is like love... '; -|)

    I suggest wearing polished Uranium.

    I haven't been sick since I started wearing mine however long ago that was & I used to be a good "once a year" down for a few days sick type of guy. Not sure if I just broke my body out of that pattern or if the low level immune system stressing works better than I expected.

    I've had amazing results, and all I have to do is wear something, plus the stone looks really cool.

    One thing that I have found almost miraculous in the prevention and early elimination of urinary tract infections is D-Mannose. If you have been plagued with UTI's you know how miserable they can be. Most of these infections are caused by E.Coli that enter the bladder through the urethra. E.Coli is found in the digestive track and can wreak havoc on the bladder.

    D- Mannose is a simple sugar that passes through the body undigested, via urine. When it enters the bladder it binds any E. coli bacteria so that it can't latch on to the bladder wall, allowing it to be flushed out by urination. The catch is that it is not as effective if you wait till you have a full blown bladder infection. It works very well as a preventive. I use 1 gm two times a day. Also, if you begin to get symtoms, such a slight burning upon urination, you can take larger amounts. I would recommend 1.5-2 gms four times a day. Also, drink lots of water.

    You can buy D-mannose at health food stores or online at places like Amazon. I buy it bulk as it is more economic .

    Hello,

    I would advice you to check this site and Doctor ... Dr.Bill Deagle ..

    Site : www.nutrimedical.com

    I would recommend from my experience this from his site :

    Silver100
    AlicinMed
    Nutriodine
    Nutridefense

    And you probably wont get sick again ( and if you get, wont be more than a couple of hours to a day maximum ) I had serious health problems this last months and I tell you I have never seen something like his products

    They are the best Bio Compatible and most natural and the best quality I have ever found or heard of ( and you probably wont find anything better on the internet )

    But this is only my advice, if you any questions email him or listen to his show Nutrimedical and you will find great advice on how to improve and protect your health

    Joao

    I have used every single thing listed above. But the one that hits the target for EVERYTHING is the MMS. I even once agreed when "in extremis" to taking one batch of antibiotics - the one and only time in my life. And it did NOTHING for the infection. And then I had to buy real expensive probiotics in both liquid and capsule form to be sure the gut flora was re-established.

    An important discovery I'd like to share with the people who read this thread is that I've just seen an outbreak of SHINGLES stopped completely by large doses of MMS. Also used were cotton balls soaked in activated MMS with a little water applied topically. I had not expected such success.
    I wished I had seen this post a few months ago when I had shingles. It took me weeks to cure myself with oral mms and spray. What was your dosage? Do you mean undiluted mms in cotton balls?

    Thanks for the heads up on this. At first I was going to argue your point but after looking into your info what you are saying seems right on. Man, was I deceived!!!! I also found this little article that supports what you already have:

    Quote Grapefruit seed extract (GSE) comes from the seed, pulp and white membranes of grapefruit. It has a reputation as an antifungal and antibacterial agent, but when I discussed your question with Tieraona Low Dog, M.D., an internationally recognized expert in the fields of integrative medicine, dietary supplements and women's health, and an authority on botanical medicine, she said that it is unclear how potent GSE is as an antibacterial or antifungal. She said that many grapefruit seed extracts on the market are adulterated and noted that a German study of six commercial grapefruit seed extracts showed that five of these products contained benzethonium chloride, a synthetic antimicrobial often used in cosmetics and other topical preparations, as well as the preservatives triclosan and methylparaben.


    Dr. Low Dog adds that this finding is consistent with those of other researchers who have found benzethonium chloride or triclosan in samples of liquid and powdered grapefruit seed extracts. When grapefruit seed extract is used topically (say, for treatment of athlete's foot as I have recommended), the presence of these synthetic substances is not a big issue. But she cautions that grapefruit seed extract often is recommended for treatment of infant thrush (also a fungal infection) and says she would not recommended putting a potentially adulterated product in an infant's mouth or that anyone use it internally.

    It is probably safe to put a few drops of grapefruit seed extract in water in a spray bottle for an odorless way to kill household mold and mildew. As a treatment for athlete's foot, you can try applying full strength grapefruit seed extract to the affected area two to three times a day. You can also use it as an alternative to tea tree oil to treat nail fungus. Paint it on affected nails twice a day for at least two months. But given the evidence of apparent widespread adulteration of grapefruit seed extract, I agree that it shouldn't be taken internally.

    The claims on grapefruit seed extract having anti-microbial properties has been greatly exaggerated. I am wary, and would actually suggest to avoid them: https://drnibber.com/grapefruit-seed...blow-industry/
