Guest guest Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Lyn.. The first things I reach for when my hubby complains of a cough or tickle in his throat is.. 1) Sambucol or Sambucus syrup and lozenges.. yummy tasting.. both the liquid & lozenges http://www.vitacost.com/natures-way-sambucus-original-syrup-8-fl-oz# http://www.vitacost.com/natures-way-sambucus-original-lozenges 2) Boiron's Oscillococcinum .. little sugary beads.. tasty.. let dissolve on tongue http://www.vitacost.com/boiron-oscillococcinum-30-doses 3) Vitamin C tablets - 500 mg each .. Whatever your dad can tolerate but.. at least 1000 to 2000 mg per day. (Vit C helps strengthen the wall of your body's cells making it harder for viruses and bacteria to penetrate and take up housekeeping..lol) 4) Colloidal Silver... 1 tbs. 4 - 6 times per day. Let it sit in the mouth as long as possible.. gargle, swish around, whatever. No taste to it at all hardly. from ... www.quailwoodherbal.com 5) Epicor - this can be taken.. one - two caps per day all the time to generally boost the immune system and help keep colds especially at bay. *I buy mine in lb bulk over the net from a feed store.. Diamond X I think it is called and I just take some on the tip of a tsp 2 - 3 times per day.* It tastes gritty and yeasty but can be added to cereal, yogurt, etc. http://www.vitacost.com/source-naturals-epicor-with-vitamin-d-3 And of course, Vit D-3 just for general health. The first few items are primarily effective against viral infections and all are excellent, in my opinion, especially when the condition is caught early.

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Hi Joyce >>This is kinda my history on it all with this antioxidant. I don't taste a thing with these supplements, take them with water and down they go. I kept your email just in case I needed it for my dad and pneumonia, but my methods have been successful. Chalk another BIG one up for home remedies! I'd really love to get to my dad's one VN who butted heads with me one day and challenged me with what would I do to fight infection. I showed her about 4 things I had when I knew that much would overwhelm her and so I stopped. (I only used one of those in my treatment of my Dad, so I had plenty more I could have shown her!) As for the taste of herbs, I have been trying hard to get away from so many gelatin capsules and have gone to liquids as my only other known alternative to capsules. So that is why I said my oregano oil is awful and hard to get down. >>I take a lot of other stuff but won't go there as it's long. Vit D is critical too for immune system.<< He has been on D for quite awhile and I have him on C now. He has had some very, very good examples since March that my methods WORK. I still wait with baited breath to hear him say, 'I want on board with you.' He just won't admit that yet. So while he will still let me, I will continue to feed him clay and C powder and do my treatments and follow him around with drinking water. I will remember your herbs, tho. I want to start them myself. Not for any real health need, but to fight fungus. Lyn ________________________________ From: " ly.ninwv@...

It is the body weakened because it is in too high a state of a dirty environment, especially of mold. My mom never cleaned house and my dad is not much better. Not like a conscientious woman would be. I am the only cleaner in my family but I have not been near enough times to get it done right once I found out that cleanliness was the problem. Now I believe the mold is in my Dad's body and we have to kill it all or he will continue to get pneumonia. How do you take your grapeseed and do you buy a tincture? I tried to take oregano oil for awhile but BOY that is hard to take. So that has me afraid to try anything else. But I want to find some antifungals that are pleasant to take bcuz my dad is so resistant to things I take because they don't taste good. Lyn ----- Original Message ----- From: " JOYCE MARTINO " < jam2006@... > I've never had pneumonia and soon 74, perhaps it's not in my genes...but Grape Seed Extract has kept me majorally healthy for the 17 yrs (soon) I'm taking it. Perhaps people who get it have a weakness in that area of the body, none of my family ever had it too, that I can recall. joyce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
