Flu Shots - Good Thing/Bad Thing?

EVERYONE KNOWS....getting the flu is not fun and for those with compromised immunity a severe case of the influenza can be life threatening.
However, common use of the "flu Shot" or inoculation is misleading in terms of the vaccine's ability to prevent you from getting the flu. The University of Chicago's Biological Sciences Department has this to say about the fallibility of the yearly "flu Shot", "Why doesn't the flu vaccine work, sometimes?". These inoculations can be dangerous and are toxic, some contain mercury, some do not.

There are many reason vaccines for the flu don't always work, but let's dig deeper into what happens with your immune system when you do get a case of influenza. I was delighted to find ample documentation to prove my long standing theory about influenza and natural immunity. I have always believed that getting a case of the flu every 7-8 years or so is the best protection against getting it yearly.

What, you say?
Read this Blog published by the New York Times to understand this concept of natural immunity better. The basics are that when you get the flu your body is equipped for sometime afterwards to naturally defend its self against the current mutation or strain. This immunity will last until the virus has mutated to an entirely unrecognizable version and your body will again be susceptible.

​This is a natural phenomenon that keeps us healthy and gives us "natural immunity". Great design! Thanks evolution!

Be that as it may when we do get the flu, we can sail through it easier with the help of the wonderful world of homeopathy.
Engystol is a homeopathic remedy available for injection, which must be prescribed by a physician.  At Aesthetic and Medical of Scottsdale, Dr Kristi Norris, NMd. provides both the consult and injection for those who desire a safer and more effective alternative than the traditional and less than effective vaccines. Engystol is a clinically proven antiviral and immune stimulant with efficacy demonstrated both in a preventing the flu AND influenza-like-illness, the common cold, Herpes simplex, and RSV or Respiratory Syncytial Virus.

The 
NCBI provides this research abstract with supporting documentation on the efficacy of this healthier option.
Since the Engystol homeopathic is an immune booster it can also be used to treat the flu once you get it. 
When you do get the flu! - Basic 101 survival
  • Understand that is is a natural phenomenon and that you will survive.
  • People get into trouble with the flu when they are run down, depleted of nutrients and are stressed to the max, or fail to recognize they are sick and need to TAKE TIME OFF TO RECOVER AND GET WELL!
  • Recovery means RESTING! Bed rest, it's an old fashion concept, that works! Get lots of rest, sleep for 12 hours if you need it, lay around and binge watch TV and allow yourself to just be miserable...it will pass quicker, if you do this!
  • Fluids, lots and lots. Herbal teas, lemon water, electrolyte drinks (sugar free), broth especially bone broth from chicken or beef. 
  • Soak in salt water as warm as you can take it. This will push a fever which is what you want. Add 1 cup 35% hydrogen peroxide for an extra boost.
  • If a fever is too high 104 degrees or above, or goes on for too long causing serious depletion it's important to cool down. Take a bath in tepid water adding more cooler water as you can take it. Ice packs and cold icy water face cloths to the neck, forehead and abdomen will help bring a fever down.
  • Aspirin for the aches and pain is the safest alternative. Herbs such as kava, passionflower and chamomile are also very helpful. 
  • Essential oils can help alleviate aches and pains. There are numerous brands, make sure you are using the top grade essential oils which will have a GC-MS report that ensures the quality. Eucalyptus, peppermint, wintergreen, camphor, ginger, thyme, grapefruit, lemon and lime are all good choices for infusing or as a steam inhalant.
  • Tiger Balm, rub a small amount on chest front and back side to loosen phlegm. This analgesic ointment has been around for 100 years. It's a go to for me and my family.
  • Herbal therapies that boost immunity are good, but need to be taken prior to getting the flu for maximum benefit. Echinacea, goldenseal, reishi  & cordyceps and astragalus are good choices for the fall into winter health regime. Take as directed.
  • Colon Hydrotherapy sessions will alleviate symptoms of aches and pains and help move you more quickly towards recovery. How is that possible? Relieving the toxic load of the colon will give your liver a much needed break so it can go about the work of process the toxic byproducts of the viral activity. No matter how bad you feel get in for a session or two and you condition will improve dramatically!
If your symptoms persist and your fever won't break it's important to seek professional help. Go to the nearest emergency room or make an appointment with your doctor. Secondary infections can lead to pneumonia, a serious condition. The advice in this blog is not meant not diagnose or treat any illness. BTH
