How To Make An All-Natural Wellness Shot. Feeling flu-ish and run down by seasonal colds is just plain crummy, especially during the summer months.

How To Make An All-Natural Wellness Shot

What’s worse than a summer cold, right? You might try beating the bug with over-the-counter meds, maybe a variety of unusual remedies — you’d do almost anything to feel better, all in hopes of actually going on vacation or just having some fun in the sun. Then it hits you. The runny nose, the sneezing, the fever and body aches and chills… but fear not, there's a way to beat the bug before it gets too comfortable in our systems. Wellness shots are nutrient-dense powerhouses that pack a punch. Usually, a wellness shot consists of three main fresh ingredients: Ginger provides upset stomach and digestive relief, warms you up, and lessens aches and pains associated with colds and flu.

Lemon boosts immunity, detoxifies the body, and provides a nice dose of food-based vitamin C. Cayenne is potent and effectively treats fevers, poor circulation, nausea, and other digestive complaints. Green tea supplements prevent flu better than vaccination. (NaturalNews) Flu season is now in full swing and seasonal vaccinations are being pushed from every corner.

Green tea supplements prevent flu better than vaccination

Nonetheless, a recent clinical trial showed that green tea-based supplements reduced the risk of flu by 75%. This is far better than the 60% risk reduction recently reported in the Lancet for vaccinations. Given that green tea provides a host of other health benefits and none of the risks of injections, it would appear to be a far superior alternative to vaccination.For many years it has been known that green tea polyphenols actively suppress many bacterial, fungal and viral species. On the virus front, green tea suppresses the adenovirus, Epstein-Barr, herpes simplex, HIV-1 and influenza viruses. EGCG, one of the main polyphenols in green tea, is mainly responsible for this suppression. This latest trial shows that green tea supplements easily outperform flu vaccination for preventing illness.

(NaturalNews) The nation of Finland has now openly admitted that the swine flu vaccine "conclusively" causes narcolepsy, a chronic nervous system disorder that makes people uncontrollably fall asleep.

Conclusive link now admitted: swine flu vaccine causes chronic nervous system disorders

The Finnish government, in acknowledging this link, says it will pay for "lifetime medical care" for 79 children who have been irreparably damaged by the swine flu vaccine. ( Narcolepsy isn't the only side effect now admitted to be caused by swine flu vaccines: 76 of the 79 children also suffered hallucinations and "paralyzing physical collapses," say Finnish researchers. Remarkably, even though the link between swine flu vaccines and permanent neurological damage in children is now openly admitted by the Finnish government, there is absolutely no talk about halting the utterly unscientific ritual of injecting children with flu vaccines in the first place. The U.S. government, of course, still refuses to admit vaccines cause any harm whatsoever. Listen to the interview at: Don't believe me?

A new study has confirmed that vitamin D plays an important role in activating your immune defenses against infectious diseases like the flu.

Vitamin D Deficiency is Why You Get Flu

Vitamin D deficiency has already been linked to a wide spectrum of diseases including heart disease, cancer, diabetes, depression, autoimmune disease and many others. The new study discovers that activation of T-cells to fight infections needs definite help from vitamin D. When a T cell recognizes foreign invaders like bacteria or viruses, it sends activating signals to the vitamin D receptor gene. The VDR gene then starts producing DVR protein, which binds vitamin D in the T cell. Then the vitamin D bound and activated DVR produces PLC-gamma1 protein -- which allows the T cell to get started fighting the infection.

Dr. This confirmation is exciting, if for no other reason than the fact that curing vitamin D deficiency is not only inexpensive – it may in some cases cost you nothing! Avoid the Flu Virus by Maintaining a Healthy Immune System.
