Fighting a virus 1

The One Secret to Fight a Virus

It is our understanding that many illnesses are now related to the health of our immune system. The immune system seems to be linked to so many aspects of our life. The food we eat, the quality of our sleep, and the level of stress are all things that are within our control to supercharge our body. 

Unfortunately, every year, many people are inflicted by a virus that can cause significant harm to individual health and, in some rare cases, death. The role of our immune system is to protect us from any foreign substance that could harm the body. These foreign substances are also known as antigens. Antigens include bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi. 

Not all people realize that viruses operate in our bodies in a very different way than bacteria. Unlike bacteria, viruses are not really “alive.” They cannot operate on their own and require a host to multiply. That host is often human cells. When a virus is found in the body, it triggers the immune system, which, in return, try to destroy the virus with various mechanisms. 

One of the biggest hosts is the "Candida" probiotic in our digestive system that can easily get out of proportion to the other yeasts and hosts all kinds of antigens, including cancer. Fact is that a big majority of cancer patients have been found to have a major overgrowth of "candida". It's important to keep the PH in your system balanced with garlic and pro-biotic supplements. If you crave sweets a lot you could have an overgrowth as "candida" lives on sugar and will cause those cravings.

That is why the number one secret to fight a virus is to avoid it at all costs by practicing good hygiene. That means to limit, as much as you can, your exposure to the virus in the first place. 

The goal of the virus is to find a host, a cell in the body. Our innate immune system is the first responder of our body, which includes our skin. Our skin, being the first line of defense, serves as a surface barrier to stop the virus or bacteria from getting into our body. That explains why, when we are in flu season, you see signs of washing your hands everywhere. By washing your hands, you destroy the antigen before it harms the body. You should wash your hands before every meal, after going to the bathroom or after touching someone else (like a handshake) or something in public. It is also essential to be conscious of when you reach for your face since the virus is more likely to enter through your mouth. 

During the flu season, be extra careful about where your hands go and how exposed you are to the virus (if people around you sneeze or cough, you have more chances of catching something).

Where Diets Go Wrong

   When we discover that we are heavier than we want to be, we have a natural inclination to eat less food.  We may skip lunch or eat only a tiny amount of our dinner in the hope that if we eat less our body will burn off some of its fat.  But that is not necessarily true.  Eating less actually makes it more difficult to lose weight. 👎

      Keep in mind that the human body took shape millions of years ago, and at that time there were no diets.  The only low-calorie event in people's lives was starvation.  Those who could cope with a temporary lack of food were the ones who survived.  Our bodies, therefore, have developed this built-in mechanism to help us survive in the face of low food intake.👈 

      When researchers compare overweight and thin people, they find that they ear roughly the same number of calories.  What makes overweight people different is the amount of fat that they eat.  Thin people tend to eat less fat and more complex carbohydrates. 👌

      Losing weight is not something one can do overnight.  A carefully planned weight loss program requires common sense and certain guidelines.  Unfortunately, there is a lot of misinformation floating around and lots of desperate people are easily duped and ripped off. 👀

      Every day one can open a magazine or newspaper and see advertisements touting some new product, pill or patch that will take excess weight off quickly.  Everyone seems to be looking for that "magic" weight loss pill.  Millions of Americans are trying to lose weight, spending billions of dollars every year on diet programs and products.  Often they do lose some weight.  But, if you check with the same people five years later, you will find that nearly all have regained whatever weight they lost. 😓

    ☝  A survey was done recently to try and determine if any commercial diet program could prove long-term success.  Not a single program could do so.  So rampant has the so-called diet industry become with new products and false claims that the FDA has now stepped in and started clamping down. 

    😟  Being seriously overweight and particularly obesity can develop into a number of diseases and serious health problems, and it is now a known fact that when caloric intake is excessive, some of the excess frequently is saturated fat. 

     😟 The myth is that people get heavy by eating too many calories.  Calories are a consideration it's true, but overall they are not the cause of obesity in America today.  Americans actually take in fewer calories each day than they did at the beginning of the century.  If calories alone were the reason we become overweight, we should all be thin.  But we are not.  Collectively, we are heavier than ever.  Partly, it is because we are more sedentary now.  But equally, as important is the fact that the fat content of the American diet has changed dramatically.

     💓  People who diet without exercising often get fatter with time.  Although your weight may initially drop while dieting, such weight loss consists mostly of water and muscle.  When the weight returns, it comes back as fat.  To avoid getting fatter over time, increase your metabolism by exercising regularly. 

    👉  Select an exercise routine that you are comfortable with and remember that walking is one of the best and easiest exercises for strengthening your bones, controlling your weight and toning your muscles.

Vaccines, a note of caution !

 I'm not a Doctor, but I am a medical researcher with a little concern about the rush for vaccines.

All vaccines are inherently dangerous, as they contain an array of toxic ingredients.

I have had questions about this outbreak from the beginning and the longer it lasts, while no one is giving us real answers, is frustrating at the very least.

• Why has it not been isolated ? and how can you make a vaccine when you don't even have the cause?
• Why have we not come up with a standard treatment available for all ?
• Why was hydroxychloroquine taken off the market when a lot of Doctors were having great success with it ?
• How could it spread from a small city in China to the whole world in such short time without help ?
• Why the rush for a vaccine rather than a treatment ?
• Why is the testing results so unreliable with a large percentage of false readings ?
• Looking at the actual death rate, it's no worse than the flue and we don't shut down the whole country for the flue ?
• Why is the media constantly engaged in fear mongering about this ?

• One vaccine is different than usual, it's an mRNA that will genetically modify your DNA, unlike regular vaccines that just stimulate an immune response against the pathogen, very scary ! [research this for more info]

• Why did Biden say he would not take the new vaccine ?

I'm not a conspiracy nut, but I do have a lot of questions about this whole thing. I get a lot of reports from non mainstream sources that have me very concerned about the ability for this to lead to chip implanting, crashing our economy, new world order and controlling the population that warrants further investigation by concerned citizens. Due diligence is necessary before excepting these vaccines.

Lastly, I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with all this but I would sure like to get answers rather than rhetoric from the talking heads on TV.

P.S.   A related post is at my other blog, https://peacefullexistence.blogspot.com      [smell test]

Can you boost your immune system even when you're sick ?

 If You Are Currently Sick Can You Still Boost Your Immune System?

The answer to this question is that you can still boost your immune system if you are already sick. Anytime is the right time to boost your immune system. Some people will feel that if they are already sick then strengthening their immune system is a waste of time. But this is not a good attitude as you need to do all that you can to help your immune system make you better.

Keep following your current Immune System Boosting practices

If you have established some good immune system boosting practices then continue with these when you are sick. This includes maintaining good hygiene and staying on your healthy diet. If exercise is part of your immune strengthening practices (which it needs to be) then you can take a break from this until you are better.

Your Immune Boosting Practices have not failed you if you get sick

Getting sick doesn’t mean that the practices that you have put in place to boost your immune system have failed. Something just slipped through the cracks - which just happens sometimes. In the case where you have not been trying to boost your immune system there are a number of things that you can do to improve it even if you are already sick.

Supplements can help

The taking of additional immune system supplements such as zinc, vitamins  A and  C can definitely be a big help. In a short amount of time these supplements will help to build up your immune system and lessen the symptoms of your sickness and its overall duration.

Get a lot of Rest

When you are sick be sure to get as much rest as you can. Do not try to push yourself when you are sick. It is much better to let your immune system take control and work its magic without having to contend with anything else.

If your friends invite you for a wild night on the town then be sure to decline this. If you are used to intense workouts then you need to refrain from these until you recover. Just get as much sleep as you can at home. By doing this you will focus your immune system on eliminating the problem so that you will recover a lot faster.

Stay Isolated

Think about others when you are sick and stay as isolated as possible so you do not spread your sickness to them. If you are in the presence of others then be sure to cover your mouth when you cough and avoid touching things that others are likely to touch.

Be sure to keep your hands thoroughly washed and keep all contact with others down to an absolute minimum. It is very important that you maintain a healthy immune system when you are sick. 

Think about how hard it is for your immune system to fight the sickness that you have. By taking steps to boost your immune system when you are sick you are helping it to obtain a significant advantage in this fight. This will result in you experiencing less severe symptoms and recovering a whole lot faster.

The importance of Garlic for better health.

You Can Give Your Immune System A Boost With Garlic 

A lot of people think that garlic is very pungent and even a little bit gross but the truth is that you should be using it a lot more in your cooking as it is an essential herb for your immune system. You can even eat garlic raw because it is very good for your health. 

There are many uses for garlic in cooking. This is because it provides a lot of flavor and it is a seasoning that has a very distinctive scent. More importantly than this, garlic is essential for your immune system as it will help to increase your white blood cell numbers.

Use Garlic to increase the amount of White Blood Cells, VERY IMPORTANT !

White blood cells are responsible for identifying, targeting and eliminating any foreign cells that can carry disease. They are your strongest defense against harmful pathogens. If you do not have enough white blood cells your immune system will be weaker and can be overwhelmed by infectious cells that will make you very sick.

So you need to add garlic to your diet so that you can increase the number of white blood cells you have available so that they can find any harmful bacteria and prevent any diseases forming in your body. 

Improve your Blood Flow with Garlic

Another great reason to include garlic in your diet is that it will improve your blood flow. This is great for a variety of reasons, but particularly in relation to your immune system, because it helps it to identify diseases faster. 

Your white blood cells are always circulating around your body and continuously on the lookout for things that shouldn’t be there and they will attack these. With improved blood circulation, your white blood cells will be able to move faster and more easily through your blood searching for threats. 

Use Garlic to reduce Stress

It is well known in the medical world that stress is responsible for weakening the human immune system. When you are in a state of stress your body releases specific hormones that result in your immune system becoming less effective.

Studies have shown that the ingestion of garlic helps to stop the release of these stress hormones, which in turn will make you feel less stressed and assist with maintaining your immune system at its most efficient level.

Eat Garlic raw for maximum benefit

You will derive the maximum health benefits from garlic when you eat it in its raw state. We understand that a lot of people will not be very keen to do this. Let’s face it, the taste and smell of garlic can be pretty overpowering. 

But when you cook garlic it will reduce this overpowering taste and smell quite a lot, but at the same time you end up losing some of its health benefits. If you don’t fancy the idea of eating garlic raw, there are a number of supplements available as an alternative. 

These supplements do not have an odor and are also tasteless so it is really easy for you to take them and get all of the benefits that raw garlic would provide to you.

One finale thought

Garlic helps keep your probiotics in balance. Candida has a way of getting out of balance and since it lives on sugar, will cause sugar cravings and keep getting more and more overgrown. It manifests itself in many ways but the most problematic is that it harbors other pathogens that can make you sick, so it is necessary to keep your system at the proper Ph. That would be 6.8 to 7.3 saliva, which is mildly acidic, if you get too acidic you can have other problems. You can monitor this with over the counter items available most everywhere, here are some at "Amazon"
