Pump Up That Immune System
Monday, January 14, 2008
Just spent a week or so trying to get rid of a pesky virus (I think it was a virus - no fever or signs ot bacterial infection) - and picked up the L.A. Times to see that a supposedly healthy young woman had died of Dengue Fever after a trip to Mexico - It's transmitted by mousquito bites, and you know THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO BUT TREAT THE SYMPTOMS AND BEEF UP THE IMMUNE SYSTEM.
Another killer disease out there that's viral and so the MDs are helpless. It's up to US to take our adaptogens like ginseng, and wellness vitamins and goldenseal and EVERYTHING - like putting cayenne pepper in your soup or cinnamon and honey in your tea!
Not to mention taking your regular vitamins daily and doing all the regular good health things and having a healthy diet!
It took me almost a week to get over this virus - but I could take the time - so I TOOK it. The poor girl who died was a waitress and the management encouraged her to go home - but she worked until the day before she DIED.
So don't let anyone tell you that tacking care of yourself is slacking! Staying home and curing yourself is better for everyone.

Golden Seal
Saturday, January 19, 2008 | By kmariew
Golden Seal is one of the herbs that raises the blood pressure and smells horrible. Yes it's better than death. There are other herbs that strenthen the immune system. I have taken echinacea, astragalus, reishi (mushroom), elderberry, etc. The best herb books are the ones that give warnings about the herbs that have some negative side effects. Michael Hallowell is a excellent English herb book author. Title? I forgot. Read up on herbs before taking them to be safe.

I take echinacea for colds, and I also make a tea from black cumin seeds(nigella sativa).It is very good for boosting your immune system.
