Do you ever wish you could escape or alleviate the misery of cold and flu season? Health could be knocking on your door right now. Will you invite it in?
Our children are 18 and 16 years old. I find it hard to remember when they, or any of us, last had the flu with all its attendant, miserable experiences.
No we are not special, nor have we retreated from contact with other people. Our family used to be part of that segment of the population that were good hunters. We always caught what was going around. But we have now caught a vision of something better.
Immunity from the flu begins with those beneficial bacterial guests you entertain. These small organisms inhabiting your gut play a crucial role in determining if any given bout of flu passes you by. Vigorous colonies of bacteria not only regulate what organisms proliferate themselves in your gut, the colonies also produce natural antibiotics that can circulate throughout the body.
There are other components of immunity that should not be neglected. All those specialized cells that your body uses to destroy and engulf invaders are actuated or enhanced by certain foods. They are depressed by consumption of refined sugar.
Part of my family’s journey to health has included cleansing our diet of refined sugar and other substances that pull down immunity. Another part includes consuming AFA algae products and supplemental probiotics. Karl Abrams devotes a whole chapter in his Algae to the Rescue to how the nutrients in AFA algae boost immunity. More on that in a later post. We also consume lacto-fermented grains, beans, and vegetables. These are not only a good source of friendly bacteria, we get the nutrients those bacteria manufactured as well as those they have liberated from the foodstuff.
So the choice really is yours. You can continue to enjoy vomiting and other miseries of flu season or you can begin the climb to a state of health enjoyed only by those whose cells, organs, and systems function in accordance with the design of the Original Equipment Manufacturer.
You might be surprised by what is possible.
If you wish to know particular products I have found helpful in maintaining immunity, contact me, and I will be happy to discuss what you may want to do for yourself.
