  1. Very interesting article Elizabeth. I would like to add to your list the ginger! I find fresh ginger to help me with coughing and sometimes treats the fever. I usually boil freshly grated ginger in water about 10 minutes and drink it during the day.

    Just keep doing what your doing 🙂

  3. I eat all this and more, all organic, exercise daily and still got sick. If you have kids in school there is no way around it. Maybe we get a lighter version of it, where we can still function and go to work and do stuff, but still, the viruses out there today are not the ones we are used to, we just have no immunity to these.

    1. Cristina, I understand your frustration but have found that with our family that if we were still getting sick it was due to issues in our terrain… I.e., our gut. We found that we needed to increase the type and variance of our probiotics (homemade kefir, sauerkraut, raw milk, etc) along with consuming high levels of the natural anti-pathogens. in addition, we make sure we keep up our levels of Vitamin D3 & main well mineralized (Zinc, Magnesium, Selenium, Iodine, etc with various salts). most critically, it is mandatory that each member of our family get 8 hours of sleep and avoids any processed, refined, GMO or sugar product during flu season. There are times we cheat but not in the heart of flu season.

  4. When it comes to garlic – it is indispensible to buy an organic one that is pink and very smelly. I am afraid, Chinese garlic does not work…
    Also, I do recommend my grandmother's methods that I started using when I was pregnant.
    When I was a child I was always prescibed antibiotics which almost devasted my immune system. Since I rediscovered using the old ways that I never before believed in, I have never taken antibiotics anymore!
    1. Butter and honey on hot (not boiling) milk (3 times a day).
    2. Honey and onion syrup (two teaspoons of honey to melt on a grated onion).
    Both of them work when taken at the early stage of flu.

  5. Thanks guys ! You give a suffering sick lady hope in the middle of the night. God bless you. The ideas you gave are helping/

  6. Thanks for this information. natural foods and fresh fruits and vegetables are always beneficial for our over all health.

    I am a big fan of organic Krishna Tulsi Tea. It soothes my being and instinctively I feel it is doing me a world of good!
