Prepare Your Immune System
Most adults suffer between 2 and 4 colds, as well as the flu each year. A person is contagious from the day before the illness breaks out until 1 to 3 days after they feel better. A cold usually last only a few days while the flu can last several weeks to a month. The symptoms of a cold can include a general feeling of discomfort, headaches, nasal dryness and/or runny nose, congestion of the upper respiratory tract… The flu is a viral infection that is highly contagious. The symptoms starts with: high fever, headaches, shivers aches and pains, tiredness; followed by lung congestion, nasal secretions, difficulty swallowing and watering of the eyes.

• Over the counter medications: alleviate symptoms but do not help fight the infections, which can make the situation worse since you are weakening the body’s defenses.
SOLUTION: ECHINAFORCE
VERY INTERESTING STUDY DONE ON ECHINAFORCE IN 2012
A study done at Cardiff University (United Kingdom) with 755 participants over 4 months at 3 to 5 doses a day.
It shows that Echinaforce is a very good product in prevention AND treatment of cold and flu.
Prevention
It has been shown that those on the placebo had 59% more cold and flu on average than those on Echinaforce.
It is even more impressive with a 66% more colds and flu on the placebo vs Echinaforce when under a lot of stress:
• 68% more cold and flu on the placebo vs Echinaforce when sleep deprived
• 82% more cold and flu on the placebo vs Echinaforce for smokers.
Treatment
• Colds and flu are 1.5 days shorter with Echinaforce
• Symptoms are 62% less intensive with Echinaforce
Not because it suppress the symptoms but because it actually help neutralize the viruses by making their protein ineffective at penetrating cells and make the immune system more efficient.
Very Good Safety Record

A “common cold” viral URTI may be milder and presents in children as fussiness, decreased appetite, sleep disturbances, nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, cough, low-grade fever and headache (Fenstermacher & Hudson, 2016). Influenza, also viral, is characterized by abrupt high fever, myalgia, sore throat, cough, rhinorrhea, and occasional nausea, vomiting or diarrhea (Fenstermacher & Hudson, 2016). Nasopharyngeal swabs confirm the presence of influenza or respiratory syncytial virus, which is helpful when comorbidities exist or contact with immunocompromised individuals is

Influenza is a highly contagious viral infection that is one of the most severe illnesses of the winter season. Each year, 15 to 61 million Americans contract influenza.

There are two choices of vaccinations:
Also, some people may not have time to get sick. You have too much responsibility to risk getting sick, including people who have jobs or school. Vaccination will help you stay safe.
These are sweats, fever, aches in muscles and joints, headache, sneezing, difficulty in breathing, lack of energy
If these medicines were considered factual, the biomedical scene could change the medical community significantly. However to find if CAM treatments are effective, one needs to prove it. On the other hand, this has become significantly difficult in the medical and scientific field. Although the amount of funding and users of alternative medicine is on the rise, scientists continue to hold a strong interpretation of CAM being unproven with insufficient evidence to believe these medicines are working (Keshet, Y. (2009), p. 148-149.). Many questions can be formed on the topic of the approval of CAM. Such as, why is alternative medicine not more popular? Why won’t scientists approve of the validity of CAM, and what is holding it back? And finally the belief that society holds on alternative medicine might be considered in the medical and scientific community as unprovable regarding the placebo effect; however, if people create the idea of the medicines working for them through their treatments in which evidence is formed through the improvement of the individual, would that be considered sufficient evidence of the
Echinacea is a favorite plant used by people all over the world. It helps improve your body’s immune system naturally, and it works wonders on the common cold.
The American healthcare system needs to become more spiritual and use the wonders of one of its strongest assets, that asset is the placebo effect, we need to stop using the placebo effect just as a bench mark for drug companies. Instead we should implement its use in our healthcare system. The placebo effect can be used to enhance our healing, while it can also harm it if not implemented properly. This is one of the reasons why a greater connection between doctor and patient is required. Just like a shaman guides and individual through its spiritual and physical healing, our doctors need to implement the placebo effect and connect with us to guide us in the same matter a shaman would have. There many ways the placebo effect can enhance our
Something that I think is very important is also the lack of any side effects. Let be clear, this article discusses the use of natural HGH releasers rather then forcing the product straight into your blood stream which can come with

Common cold and flu viruses cause upper respiratory infections, but their symptoms, severity, and complications can be very different. The uncomfortable feeling of having your head full of fluid, your nose running like a faucet, and a raw scratchy throat with a dry cough is familiar to everyone. If your illness has built up slowly over a couple of days, you probably have a cold virus and will be back to normal after only a few days. Complications such as ear and sinus infections happen rarely, except for kids. On the other hand, feeling like you have suddenly been hit by a ton of bricks may point to the flu. Usually, a fever, body aches, weakness, chest congestion, and a juicy cough will knock you off your feet for at least a couple of weeks.
There is a common belief among many in the United States that taking mega doses of vitamin C will cure, prevent or reduce the symptoms of the common cold. Many Americans accept this idea as fact on its face without knowing the origins or the results of many medical science journals. The fact is that to this date there is very little evidence to substantiate the claim that taking mega doses of vitamin C will prevent or cure the common cold. There is some evidence that vitamin C will reduce symptoms of a cold in very specific circumstances for some people, but it is unlikely more than a small percentage of American’s fall into these categories. If the American people read what the latest medical science journals have found on the efficacy of Vitamin C they would probably not be as quick to part with the billions of dollars they currently spend every year on supplements alleging to contain the vitamin.
This is a completely natural way to decrease symptoms that the majority of people deal with on a daily basis. Instead of taking medications, this approach has brought very positive results that medications cannot bring.
