Swine Flu Prevention

I have had an intense amount of questions surrounding the swine flu, and what can be done naturally to prevent it. Fortunately, I have answers! There is a homeopathic flu remedy called Oscillococcinum that has bee around for decades, quietly doing the job. It is readily available at health food stores, and even some local pharmacies.
This remedy is fabulous, because it tastes great and can be used by all age groups.

To help prevent an onset of ANY flu, take 1/2 vial under the tongue at night for 3 nights in a row. As with all homeopathics, do not use mint toothpaste before or after taking the remedy. You can switch to baking soda for a few nights.

If you feel you might be coming down with a flu, take a full vial up to 3 times per day for at least 3 days. You also might consider supplementing with Echinacea, which stimulates the immune system. As with all natural products, take the Echinacea frequently throughout the day and evening, up to 6 times. Continue for at least 5 days. Additional helpers are Vitamin C (use Esther-C), zinc and vitamin D3. To your health!
