Odd, a lot of my Facebook friends are sick as dogs. Mostly fevers and the stomach flu. One friend in New York keeps posting about practically getting puked on by strangers wherever he goes. Quoting: Beltway Bandit I try to eat a mostly raw veggie/fruit diet these days and switched off the crappy One-a-Days to raw multivitamins with probiotics and enzymes so I'm doing just fine. My skin has never looked better and I feel pretty darn good. Don't think it's so much a conspiracy as that time of year. I read they screwed up this year's flu shot and picked the wrong strain so more people are getting the flu... all the more reason to skip the flu shot. What brand of vitamins are you taking? I take Garden of Life Vitamin Code (for women, natch, as I am one) and they are amazing. Pricey and you're supposed to take 4 a day but unlike the cheap ones, they are made from whole food ingredients and don't make you want to puke when you take them. I down mine with a NutriBullet green shake in the morning (spinach/kale, banana, organic berries, plain yogurt and a scoop of GNC Maximum Greens powder) and can go all day... My hair/nails are growing like weeds, my skin is clear, I'm not getting sick when everyone else around me is and I sleep better too. Highly recommended, wish I'd found them sooner. Thanks for the info. I'll look them up. And I'll have to start making shakes again. Reading about the one you make just got me very hungry.:0) |

Wow how weird is that, I actually do feel like I'm coming down with something. Quoting: AllSeeingEye 4341242 I woke up this morning with a stuffy nose and a mild cough. I workout and take organic supplements (which also help me stay healthy) and I am shocked that I feel this way, but it's no big. Just some hot tea and a muffin will do the trick lol. Otherwise it is kinda weird that so many people on GLP (or rest of area) "came down" with something over night lol. Cheers. what's even weirder was when I tried to post some helpful tips that helped me get over it (on another thread), my posts have vanished. Just fyi, it came on dec 20 (overnight) and lasted about 11 days. t was the worst sick I have ever been. |

Sinus infection for almost 2 months. Has NOT responded to what I would now describe as a cocktail of different antibiotics. Pressure on the eyes and inner ears feels like there's a compressed air line in my head. Round 3 at the Dr.'s tomorrow. There has been discussion of a CatScan. If anyone has an iota of insight, by all means, speak up. The pain was so excruciating prior to the last visit, I honestly thought I was minutes away from checking into the ER. Quoting: Veranidae Seriously, I feel your pain, and it's awful. I have an appointment with ent next week. The pain.....I have chronic migraine, and this pain is worse. It's excruciating. Feel better soon. Might want to take some cayenne pepper in some water to help drain your sinuses and relieve some pressure. Try 1/4 teaspoon(powdered) in water followed by another glass of water a few times a day. You can take more if you can take the heat.:0) They come in drops at the healthfood store and you can just put them in water and see how hot you can stand it. Cayenne is good for many different things. Google about it. Great advice. If you can't take the heat, add the cayenne to orange juice and it helps alot to make it more palitable. Also, my mother is in a nursing home. She and all the other's in the nursing home have had a flu shot. He roomate Came down with something that sounds like this...chest congestions etc. and the roomate tested postive for the flu...even though she had the shot. Now my mother is in quaranteen. We cannot see her at all and she has to stay in her room until they are sure she is not going to get this too. I was just told that the flu shot this year got the wrong strain so it doesn't work. Here is an article where the CDC says the flu shot doesn't work. Guess all people get is a nice dose of mercury and aluminum plus who knows what else. [link to ambrosiahealth.blogspot.com] |

It funny.....I've been craving hot and sour soup, though. Funny how our bodies know what we need even when we don't! Going to give this a try, thanks! I love hot and sour soup and always wanted it when I was sick as well. |

My right knee started hurting me about a week and a half ago and I was just getting over that and then i got a damn stiff neck for the last 3 days. I feel weak as hell too. Quoting: Garman906 Might get a test for meningitis... Thanks Brief Brief's right. My ex wife had bacterial meningitis. If you've had a severe head injury you're more susceptible. When I was a kid and I got sick my farmer grandparents used to say "slap some goose grease on 'em". Big hunting family. They always rendered the goose fat and kept in in a jar for colds and then rub it on my chest like vapo-rub. Man I hated that crap. I used to be close to death before I told anyone in my family I wasn't feeling well. |

Several family have had some flu-like illness off and on for nearly three months! Since Christmas, seems like the whole community is sick. I'd managed to avoid it (swab ears with hydrogen peroxide, take D and eat LOTS of turmeric and cayenne) until last weekend. Total sudden onset too! Felt really weird for the better part of a day... drugged sort of weird... then full on flu symptoms. Took 2K vitamin C, ate as much fresh garlic as I could stand, felt like I spent a whole day in the bathroom, then another in bed. Woke today doing Much better. Gotta love garlic (if you can stand it lol)... genuine "miracle cure" for some things. "You can't wake a person who is pretending to be asleep." Navajo Proverb |

Gotta love garlic (if you can stand it lol)... genuine "miracle cure" for some things. Garlic is so powerful that if you put a clove in your shoe, you'll end up burping garlic. It's transferred across membranes extremely fast. Actually it might be used that way as a carrier substance to get another substance in your bloodstream. Seems like I read about someone rubbing orange juice on their skin, then garlic and then some of the organic components of the orange was detected in their bloodstream. One way to eat it easier is to try pickled garlic. Most people like it. You can buy it ready made. Persian folks often eat it. [link to allrecipes.com] Note, when they shutdown a long term health facility like that, it's not uncommon that it's due to tuberculosis. Elderly folks have been exposed as children, and then cured of it, inside their lungs the bacteria cocoons off. Then later when their immune system is depressed as they age it flares up. Since everyone is immune depressed in those facilities it's a huge risk. It's why TB tests are done routinely. If someone slips through, either a worker or patient, then a lot of people could get terribly sick. Remember too that there's a lot of Christmas visitations.

Yes - eat the raw garlic! This is common knowledge in India and probably a lot of other places. I posted before about slicing up an onion and keeping it nearby. It's the same as garlic. What does that set you back, about 30 cents? It takes 2 minutes to slice! There is thiosulfinate in garlic and onions that help you out. It doesn't draw out bacteria from the air as far as I know. There is science behind this. It is not a wives tale. This is the cheapest solution and will help your immune system when you beat the cold or flu naturally. Best wishes |

Thiosulfinates are created immediately after the onion or garlic is crushed by a blunt object, or cut with a knife. "When onion cells rupture allinase and ACSO mix together and react, producing another set of sulfur compounds called thiosulfinates" Freshly cut onions or freshly crushed garlic. Inhale deeply. Again, it only costs 30-50 cents? If I was feeling that terrible, I'd give it a shot... |

Might as well share. Not been sick in about three years. Saturday night fever starts with some kind of neck soreness. Sunday high fever ALL day. Monday high fever off an on. Continues through the week fevers but then add congestion and sore throat. Today is Thursday STILL sick! Fevers last night ..nothing now.. Maybe I am about done with this crap! I hate to think of all of the elderly people with this. No doubt it could be deadly for the weak. |
