Thank you for the suggestions - is Dr Weeks Flu Shot the mix of ingredients just beneath?Valerie wrote: Sorry to hear you are sick Temp-Lord please help her have a speedy recovery-
Prevention Temp! Since you got the flu a little over a year ago, probably building up your immune system is key-
Vitamin C, Zinc, Vitamin D3-
Dr. Weeks Flu Shot
8 oz filtered water
2 TBSP Apple cider vinegar
1 TBSP raw honey
2 cloves minced garlic
Red pepper flakes (optional)
Some things to keep on hand-
Sambucol Black Elderberry Cold & Flu Relief (Homeopathic)
Oscillococcinum Homeopathic)
These are over the counter and you take at the first sign of cold & flu symptoms- they will shorten length of cold/flu
I've heard many testimonies on those 2 products-
A customer makes a Black Elderberry syrup that she can't keep up with the orders for it- works wonders-
This is kind of funny- but- a customer has to have spicy garlic pickles on hand. First sign of a sore throat, he eats them-
whatever is attacking him seems to go away. I decided to keep them in the fridge in case. I started with a sore throat Saturday morning and so started eating the hot garlic pickles, also drank ginger tea & added ginger- drank the apple cider concoction- drank a little of the black elderberry syrup (Plus I take vitamin C & D3 & Zinc). By the next morning no sore throat or any symptom (which I'm glad because the young guy I take to work started with the same type of sore throat before me and turned into full blown cold or flu & I didn't want it!)
Since I'm around sick folks all the time I have to keep my immune system up and so far I've only been slightly sick a couple times in the over 4 years in that position-
But NE Ohio is now been hit hard with flu just lately I'm told- (seen a lot of colds prior but not flu). Most folks I've talked to who had the flu, had also had the flu shot.
i don’t believe i have any of these items on hand! (vitamins, yes. everyday.)
i drink water, have lots of soup, vegetables, liquids, etc.
this week has been bad. fever, sore throat, coughing so hard and so frequently, sore muscles everywhere. sleeping sitting up for 3 nights. not sure about tonight. i’m afraid to try to lay down.
today was much better, but, definitely not over it.
too soon to tell, i may yet have to deal with bronchitis or pneumonia.
it’s been years, but i have had both.
hmm. i have had pneumonia shots in recent years. hope they’re working.
today, i did take the trash out and got the mail, tho. surprised myself.
unfortunately, found the mailbox damaged. no idea how/who, or even which day.
i may have to replace it this time. ugh.
snow coming over the weekend. i may be shoveling Saturday-Sunday. may be.
ahh. it’s great to be young and spirited.
i’m surprised others are not complaining with it. my daughter+sil had it, my son has it now. grdaughter, so far, has avoided it. praying for her. sigh.
sunny days help a lot. daylight is lasting a bit longer now, day by day.
i feel as tho i’m losing the entire month of January to this affliction.
