Blaylock Tip of the Week Protecting Yourself Against Swine FluThe media blitz is in full swing pushing flu vaccination. At least two vaccines — one for the regular strain of flu expected this season and one for swine flu — will be necessary. And no one is allowed to offer preventive measures or treatments for this “anointed flu,” even though there are powerful, effective natural supplements that protect against it. A pharmaceutical company recently announced that a statin spray has been shown to be effective against the flu virus. (For information, read my report “Vaccinations and Brain Injuries — Are You at Risk? Go here.) But before we understand how it works, we need to understand how the flu virus operates. The flu virus is supposed to cause a “cytokine storm,” and this inflammatory overreaction is what causes the damage, not the virus itself. This is interesting because all vaccines also cause a cytokine storm, one that can last for decades. This is why vaccines are linked to sudden death, joint pains, depression, weakness and fatigue, mental cloudiness, seizures, neurological disorders, and autoimmune diseases. (No one seems to be concerned about vaccine-caused cytokine storms, which are, in fact, immunoexcitotoxicity.) For details on the dangers of vaccines, Go Here. August 2009 The Blaylock Wellness Report, Page 7. The statin spray is supposed to protect by reducing inflammation (calming the storm). The medical elite ignore the fact that a great number of natural substances also are known to calm cytokine storms, but they are much less expensive and have virtually no serious side effects. They include: - Curcumin: This powerfully suppresses cytokine storms and has been shown to reduce viral damage. When combined with quercetin, curcumin’s effectiveness is even more powerful.
- Resveratrol: This may reduce viral replication and speed recovery from viral infections. Resveratrol also protects the brain and heart.
- Mixed carotenoids: Mixed carotenoids, which contain such carotenoids as alpha and beta-carotene, canthoxanthin, zeoxanthin, and lycopene, reduce viral damage and restore immunity.
- Buffered vitamin C.
- Mixed tocopherols (high gamma-E).
- Zinc.
- Selenium: This boosts immunity and prevents viral damage and mutation.
- Extend Core multivitamin/mineral.
- Magnesium citrate/malate. Magnesium reduces inflammation and repairs immunity.
- Beta-1,3/1,6-glucan: This supplement specifically boosts cellular immunity and fights viral infections. Take it as soon as symptoms occur or when you are exposed, and continue until you are completely well. Do not take it regularly, only when you are exposed or sick.
- Astaxanthin: This type of carotenoid improves immunity and reduces inflammation.
- N-acetyl cysteine. This supplement has been shown to increase glutathione dramatically in all cells, and studies have shown it can slash the harmful effects of viral infections.
- Vitamin D-3.
For more information, including specific dosages on supplements, Go Here. You also should avoid the following: - Omega-6 vegetable oils: Corn, canola, peanut, soybean, safflower, and sunflower oils.
- Fluoride in any form: Toothpaste, mouthwashes, dental treatments or foods (black tea, commercial fruit juices, etc.).
- Iron: Avoid all iron supplements during an infection or risk of infection. If you are deficient in iron, resume your iron supplement when you are well. Iron stimulates viral and bacterial growth and can make infections fatal.
- Mercury: Mercury-containing fish, dental amalgam, and mercury-containing vaccines (flu vaccine).
- Sugar: Especially, avoid high fructose corn syrup. A recent study found that the syrup often is contaminated with mercury. High sugar intake suppresses immunity and feeds bacteria as well as increases free-radical generation. Taking these steps will greatly reduce your risk of getting an infection. If you become infected, they will reduce your risk of dying.
