Guest guest Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 Natural Infection Fighters To understand infection, we must understand germ life. Germs are around us everywhere. We are only succumbing to germs when our system run down. Our best line of defense is to keep our immune system strengthened. Louis Pasteur is quoted as saying “prevention is better than cure.” When you deal with cold, flu, and herpes type illnesses, you are dealing with viruses. When afflicted with ear infections, stomachaches, chest and sinus infections, you are dealing with bacteria. Athlete’s foot and yeast infections (Candidiasis) are fungus problems. We believe if our body is strong, no attacker can penetrate through us. Therefore, it is important to have immune-boosting nutrients all year round, especially if you work in an area that exposes you to the greater public. During an infection, our body is fighting the germ invader, free radicals are produced through the process, and antioxidants are called upon to sweep these dangerous chemicals out of our systems. Once you identify your invaders, whether it is virus, bacterial or fungal, you then can prepare the best defense mechanism whether it is anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal agents, or antioxidants. Found below are tables to show you the nutrients that enhance your immune system and fight the infection naturally.
