Guest guest Posted November 26, 1998 Report Share Posted November 26, 1998 Hi all, and happy Thanksgiving! I am " home alone " watching " Home Alone " and studying because I got some kind of flu (again) and had to miss the holiday festivities (and am awaiting a " doggie bag " when my husband returns). As I've mentioned, I'm in graduate school, which is incredible stress. On top of that, my internship is in a preschool, where germy little children (whom I really do adore) crawl all over me and shower me w/affection (and germs). I REALLY need something to help my immune system (I'm already taking MANY supplements, doing acupunction, Chinese herbs, and working out fairly regularly [as my schedule will allow], so getting sick twice in the past 2 months is rather frustrating. Any ideas out there as to how to bolster the immune system? (I'm allergic to eccanecia [sp?], and already take lots of vitamin C.) Thanks for any help anyone can give me, and once again, happy holiday to all.

Guest guest Posted November 26, 1998 Report Share Posted November 26, 1998 Aloha , Happy Thanksgiving, and thank you for all your time, diligence and research. I think you are on the cutting edge to properly beating thyroid disease and probably many others. Enjoy, Dr. Rand BU007@... wrote: > > Hi Everyone, > Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 1998 Report Share Posted November 27, 1998 Dear Dr. Rand, Thanks for the response. I take about 1,500 mg. of C per day--I'd be afraid to take 10,000 mg. for fear of upsetting my stomach (I've had IBD, and I have a hiatal hernia). I have tried Cat's Claw, but am not sure how much to take for immune system enhancement. I have never heard of Closotrum--what is it?

Guest guest Posted November 27, 1998 Report Share Posted November 27, 1998 If your immune system is so trashed despite your amazing efforts to support it, maybe you need to quit one of the things you are doing [easier said than done, I know.] K.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 1998 Report Share Posted November 27, 1998 Hi AntJoan, Hopefully " lots " of vit C is at least 10,000 mg per day. Have you tried Cats Claw? Also Closotrum is very powerful for building the immune system. Good Luck, Dr. Rand AntJoan@... wrote: > > [image] > > Hi all, and happy Thanksgiving!

Guest guest Posted November 28, 1998 Report Share Posted November 28, 1998 Hi AntJoan, I have found 2 caps of Cats Claw, 500 mg each, taken 3 to 4 times a day when sick and once or twice a day as maint. usually worked well. Vit C taken as 1,000 to 2,000 every 1-2 hours when sick and 3 to 6 times a day as prevention usually does not upset the stomach. People with IB find that taking it as powder will actually help heal the colon. I have even seen bleeding ulcers heal with powdered vit C. They also make buffered powdered vit C, you can get it direct from Bronson pharmaceutricals at 800-235-3200, they will sell to the public and they have very good vit C. Cholostum is the milk a mother produces for the first couple of days. It is fantastic for the immune system. You will have to check around for this as I have only found it through MLM. It is taken from cows instead of humans and it works well in humans. The cows they use for it have no chemicals, antibiotics or hormones used on them. Good Luck Dr. Rand AntJoan@... wrote: > > [image] > > Dear Dr. Rand, > > Thanks for the response.
