Supercharge Your Immune System!

Please note: This information is NOT intended to treat, cure, prescribe or prevent any disease or illness.  It is intended to educate you regarding the use of natural and herbal remedies.  Please seek proper diagnosis and treatment when needed. Since Youtube took down this video for the second time, I am posting the notes here for you.


Your immune system is vitally important to maintain good health and vitality. It protects you from virus’s, bacteria, and toxins that can weaken your system can create inflammation, infections, illnesses and disease.  If they detect a pathogen, they attack the pathogen, protecting you from harm.  Is YOUR immune system strong enough?  It is like a muscle. Is your getting stronger, or weaker?


Signs of a LOW Immune System:

~ You frequently get tired, fatigued, feel rundown, or get sick easily.

~ Is your Stress level sky high?

~ You have stomach problems / digestive or eliminatory issues

~ Your wounds are slow to heal

~ You Bruise easily – shows deficiency of zinc and Vit. C

~ Insomnia, depression, dark circles under the eyes

~ You have allergies

~ You have an autoimmune disease

~ You have systemic Lupus

~ Rheumatoid Arthritis

~ Fibromyalgia

~ Colitis

~ Low White Blood Cell count


A low immune system is often from poor lifestyle practices and years of neglect of the body.  Often deficiencies are involved without proper nutrition.  Toxins also contribute to a weaker system. Parasites, yeast, and other microbes will also stress our system. 

Most people often have an excess of EMF radiation from all our electronic devices, WiFi, 5G, and technology. This inhibits intracellular communication, reduces the cells ability to get nutrients IN and toxins OUT.

 

Understand the different parts of the Immune System:

The Lymph Nodes – Send lymph fluid to trap bacteria and viruses. You have THREE times More lymphatic fluid than you do blood!  So if you have an average of 15 pints of blood, you have 45 pints of Lymphatic fluid.  It does not have a muscle to pump it, but it relies on UP and DOWN movement to move the fluid.

Two types of White Blood Cells – Lymphocytes and Phagocytes. Find, target and destroy pathogens.

Tonsils and Thymus - create antibodies to protect your body and help you recover faster.

Bone Marrow – produces red and white blood cells, and platelets to help protect you.

Spleen – Filters blood, helps destroy bacteria

Gut Health – Toxins and poor intestinal flora is a MAJOR problem for your immune system, as well as gut health.  If you have taken antibiotics in the past 5-10 years, you may have poor gut flora – all the GOOD bacteria lining the intestines to eliminate bad bacteria and other organisms.  Multi-probiotics are essential!  I recommend one with a blend of 16 strains, 40 BILLION strong, that is acid and bile resistant.  You see, about 95-96% of probiotics get destroyed in the stomach acid.  They have to stay alive to get into the gut to populate it. (Douglas Labs Multi Probiotic 40 Billion is available on my website in the online dispensary)


“All health begins in the gut!” – Hypocrites


Signs of a Weakened Immune System:

Chronic Fatigue, frequent colds, flus or fevers, asthma or allergies, poor exercise recovery, blood sugar challenges, hard time getting up in the morning, constipation, food sensitivities, trouble sleeping, chronic skin conditions, if you have an auto-immune disease, high levels of stress, if you bruise easily, depression, dark circles under eyes, low white blood cell count.

The human body has over 100 trillion bacteria living on it or in it. It protects you, helps you stay in balance, unless that balance is disturbed. If you’ve had antibiotics in the last 5-10 years, you may still need to restore that balance.  It can take 5-10 years to do so.


What Weakens Our Immune System?

Virus’s, bacteria, parasites, toxins, stress, pollutants, germs, fungus, carcinogens, EMF’s from technology, nutritional deficiencies, poor elimination of waste, lack of exercise.  As well as allergy medication, steroids, antacids.


Autoimmune Disorders

•        They result from an imbalance in the white blood cells in the body.  Under normal circumstances, your immune system protects you from viruses and bacteria. As soon as it detects these invasive pathogens, it’ll send out a battalion of cells to wipe them off the face of the earth.

•        Any healthy immune system has no trouble differentiating between your own cells and those that are invading. That said, for those with autoimmune disease, the immune system will think that the skin, joints, or another part of your body are actually a foreign entity.

•        It then releases proteins that will attack these healthy cells since they are under the impression that they are invasive pathogens

 

What Builds Immune System?

PROBIOTICS:Are Extremely Beneficial!  They are NOT created equal. They help not only with the immune system, they help digestive health, urinary tract health, obesity, allergies, reduces lactose intolerance. I recommend using a WIDE variety of strains, and be sure they are acid and bile resistant! I recommend Multi Probiotics 40 Billion from Douglas Labs.  They contain 16 types of strains, 40 billion, and are acid and bile resistant.  (You can find them on my website dispensary)


A Healthy, Wholesome Diet is ESSENTIAL!  Organic is best. Include Super Foods!

Foods like mushrooms, berries, fruits, cruciferous vegetables, green veggies, carrots, kale, walnuts, red peppers, oats, garlic, yogurt, lemons, etc. Fermented foods like Kimchi, Sauerkraut, Pickled beets, Kombucha, Kefir, Miso.


Foods That Weaken Immune System:

•        SUGAR - 1 TBSP. weakens immune system for up to 5 hours!

•        Highly Processed, Boxed foods

•        Deep fried foods in Veg. Oils

•        Foods with GMO’s, Pesticides

•        Microwaved foods

•        Sodas, Energy Drinks, Diet Soda

•        Artificial ingredients, coloring

•        Alcohol and Caffeine

•        High Glycemic carbs, like flour, breads, pasta, cookies, cake


Many Mushrooms:  Many Mushrooms are Considered Highly Medicinal!

•        Cordyseps, Lions Mane, Reishi, Oyster, Shiitake, Turkey Tails, and Chaga Mushroom being the best!

•        They have Beta Glucans which strengthens immune system, fights, cancers, helps blood sugar, and many more benefits.

•        They are the ONLY food that contains Vitamin D

 

Exercise the Lymph!

•        Up and Down Movement is essential!

•        Dry Skin Brushing,

•        Lymphatic Massage,

•        Stay well hydrated!

•        Hot/Cold Showers,

•        Eat a healthy, anti-inflammatory diet!

•        Get a massage

•        Perspire daily

•        Be sure to eliminate well, 2-3x a day


What’s YOUR Frequency? Healthy Frequency = Healthy Body! Low Frequency = Disease! A healthy body and immune system pulse at 62-68 Mhz.  You cannot even get the flu unless you are done below 58 Mhz.

Positive emotions, healthy food, meditating, essential oils, sunshine, all help increase our frequency.  Poor diet, unmanaged stress, negative emotions, coffee, smoking, alcohol, all reduce your frequency and increase acidity!


The Effects of Stress on the Body

Lack of concentration, headaches. Poor circulation, palpitations, high blood pressure, upset stomach, acid reflux, ulcers.  Suppressed immune system, high levels of inflammation, joint pain, muscle tension, decreased hormone production, lower sex drive. Lower endocrine functions, poor blood sugar regulation.


Ways to Reduce Stress:

Support from family or friends, Yoga or exercise, Meditation, Eat right, take time off from pleasure, have a hobby you enjoy, Playing with Children or Animals. Cold Water on Face or in Shower. Humming, Toning Use Herbals, Essential Oils. Spend Time in Nature, Garden!  Reduce Social Media Use. Spiritual reading or studying.


We are Bombarded Daily by EMF Radiation!

It comes from computers, cell phones, TV’s, Routers, Wi-Fi, household electrical system, clock radios, microwaves, radar, power lines, all technology in general, including your refrigerator, dryer, hair dryers.


Reduce your exposure! It reduces cellular functions. Turn OFF Your Wi-Fi at Night! Do Not have a clock radio next to your bed. Put Phone on Airplane mode at night. Use Ear Buds (NOT Blue Tooth in ear).Hard Wire your Computer. Use Protective devices for EMF Shields, Frequency patches.


Practice Grounding!  Put Your Bare Feet on the Earth. It drains inflammation. Use a Grounding Mat on your bed.  Connect with Nature More! Spend Time Outdoors, Get some SUNSHINE!


Get a Good Nights Sleep!  Poor sleep increases risk of health problems, cardiovascular disease, HBP, Diabetes, depression and obesity.

Healthy Sleep routines: go to bed early. NO electronics 2 hours before bed. Create a peaceful bedroom. Don’t eat before sleeping. Exercise regularly. Avoid Caffeine and Alcohol. Take Magnesium before bed.  Keep your bedroom a Sleep Only Zone!

Best HERBS and remedies for insomnia:

Chamomile, Valerian, Skullcap, Lemon Balm, Passion Flower, Hops, Kava Kava, California Poppy, Magnolia, Magnesium, Melatonin. 5HTP, GABA.


The TOP Antiviral Herbs:

Virus's are unpredictable! There are hundreds of different virus's that keep mutating and causing infections and illness. These include the common cold, the Flu, Viral Hepatitis, HIV, Epstein Barr, Mono, and many more. Running to the doctor for antibiotics is not one of the best things you can do since it will actually make your immune system weaker. Get informed and prepared for this difficult season!

 

Choosing to have an annual flu shot is no guarantee! It can be 80% or less effective as the strains keep mutating. (they have tried making a vax for colds/flu for over 30 years but CANNOT because it continuously mutates!) This particular Corona Virus was mutated from an animal and there is NO vaccine against it. It is best to strengthen your immune system and oxygenate the cells. Virus's can infect all types of life forms - even bacteria itself. They have been described as "organisms on the edge of life" because they carry genetic material and evolve, but they lack cell structure which is generally needed to be considered a 'living' thing.

 

Virus's can be spread in many ways, like blood-sucking insects (Lyme), by coughing and sneezing (colds, influenza), or unsanitary water and food. Some are transmitted by sexual contact (HIV, Herpes, STD's), and some like viral gastroenteritis (infectious diarrhea) by the fecal-oral route and are passed from person to person by contact or enter the body by food or water.

 

Are There Effective Anti-Viral Herbs? Many anti-viral herbs fight viral infections and will boost the immune system, which allows the body to attack viral pathogens. Anti-viral herbs inhibit the development of viruses yet are pretty much harmless to the body. Anti-viral drugs are designed to attack specific pathogens, but they mutate over time and become less effective to treatment. They can also have a number of other health benefits, such as cardio-vascular, digestive, and anti-inflammatory support.

 

One of my favorites is OREGANO OIL! Medicinal grade oregano oil is distilled to extract the essential oils and preserve it's healing compounds. It is highly concentrated and takes over 1,000 pounds of wild oregano to produce just 1 pound of oregano oil!

 

Oregano oil benefits are proving to be superior to many antibiotics without the harmful side effects. It has powerful anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties as well. It contains two powerful compounds, carvacrol and thymol. It can reverse infections, as well as allergens, tumors, parasites, and inflammation. There are over 800 scientific studies that reference carvacrol and it's powerful health benefits. Everyone should have some on hand, and take it whenever you travel! You can get them either in liquid gel-caps, or even better is by the dropper bottle. When you place just 2-3 drops UNDER the tongue, it goes immediately into the lymph and blood stream. Then about 4-5 drops in a little juice and water will direct it into the stomach and intestines.

 

I have discovered one of the BEST formula's in the world! This is a highly engineered extract out of Europe with the TOP 40 beneficial plants - foods and herbals using a partial extraction technology to contain the best ingredients from each. It has been used for over 40 years by over 3800 doctors. It actually CLEANS THE BLOOD, neutralizes toxins, opens the arteries, and increases the oxygen in the blood so viruses don't stand a chance! It is too detailed to go into here, but please email, call, or text me for more information. I am happy to send you an info packet and how to order.

 

Elderberry Syrup, as well as Elder flowers have a long history of medicinal benefits. It fights infections, including the flu, herpes, viral and bacterial, and respiratory infections. It can be used as a safe treatment in Influenza A and B due to its efficacy on all strains. Elder flower extract helps to decongest the sinus's as well. NOT TO BE USED IF YOU HAVE AN AUTO-IMMUNE CONDITION.

 

Echinacea is a popular anti-viral because of it's ability to stimulate the immune system and reduce viral infections and tumors. 'Echinacein' is the powerful compound in it that inhibits bacteria and virus's from penetrating healthy cells. It is also used to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, improve skin problems, stimulate lymphatic circulation, and help upper respiratory issues. It is best used at the FIRST sign of an ailment and can easily be used every tow hours the first day to help fight off a full-blown cold or flu.

 

Cat's Claw root and bark have been used for centuries for health problems like fevers, stomach ulcers, digestive problems, leaky gut, IBS, and dysentery. It's also known as a remedy for arthritis. It has antiviral properties and is used as a natural treatment for herpes. Studies show it may be helpful for HIV as well.

 

Astragalus Root is another powerful anti-viral herb. It is used in Chinese medicine to build the immune system and spleen over time. It has anti-viral properties that may help prevent the common cold and flu. It also has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties as well. Studies show it's obvious inhibiting effects on Herpes Simplex 1, as well as Coxsackie B virus. It is also an adaptogen which helps lower cortisol. Best choice for anyone with an auto-immune condition as it helps to build the spleen over a period of time.

 

Olive Leaf and it's anti-viral properties is used for common colds and a range of dangerous virus's, including candida, meningitis, pneumonia, chronic fatigue, hepatitis B, Malaria, gonorrhea, and even shingles! The powerful compounds found in Olive leaf extracts destroy invading organisms and don't allow virus's to replicate and cause infection. In fact a study done my New York University School of Medicine found it reversed many HIV-1 infection-associated changes.

 

Garlic has been found to be highly effective in killing countless micro-organisms responsible for some of the most common and even the rarest infections, such as tuberculosis, pneumonia, thrush, and herpes. Because of it's anti-viral properties, it is used as a natural ear infection remedy. Some raw benefits include reducing the risk of cancer, controlling hypertension, boosting cardiovascular health and fighting parasites and even hair loss.

 

To make Garlic Oil, crush garlic cloves and infuse them in a carrier oil like Olive oil. Let it sit for at least 5 hours or overnight, then strain it and keep it in a jar with a lid. You can easily make pickled garlic by placing skinned cloves in a jar and fill it with vinegar! Can sit for weeks and be eaten anytime. A few drops can be used fro ear infections too.

 

Good 'old Ginger! Ayurvedic medicine has praised ginger's ability to boost the immune system and ease digestive complaints. It is warming tot he body and effective at helping break down the accumulation of toxins in your organs that make you susceptible to viral, fungal, and bacterial infections. It also helps cleanse the lymphatic system, our body's sewer system to cleanse the blood. It is a natural remedy used for nausea, pain alleviation, anti-inflammatory, even diabetes.

 

Lemon-Ginger Tea can be made by adding several slices of fresh ginger and the juice of 1/2 a lemon to a cup of hot water, and add honey to taste.

 

Licorice Root is another prominent herb in the search for treatment of hepatitis C, HIV, Influenza, and Herpes. The Chinese Journal of Virology published a review confirming it antiviral activity, and noted it's antioxidant and immuno-stimulating effects. It's been used as a natural sore throat remedy, used for ulcers, leaky gut, and helps with adrenal fatigue.

 

Doing a 'steam-inhalation' at least once a day is an excellent way to kill off any virus or cold, and congestion. Boil a pot or kettle of hot water. Pour into a bowl and cover your head with a towel to breathe in the hot steam. Use just a couple of drops of either Thyme essential oil, or eucalyptus, or even lavender. They are very small particles which you can breathe into the nose as well as mouth and lungs. The heat, moisture, and oils are an excellent way to kill off a virus. After a few minutes, blow your nose, add some more hot water and repeat 2-3 times.

 

Essential oils of these and other herbs can be used for their antiviral benefits with 3-5 drops diffused in the home, school, or office. You can add some to a warm bath, or mix in a carrier oil to apply directly to the skin.

 

To make your own natural hand sanitizer, use grain alcohol, moonshine, or even just vodka. Fill your bottles at least 60-70%. Add some Aloe Vera Gel, and a few drops of essential oils, like eucalyptus, lavender, rosemary, or thyme. Shake and spray or squirt on hands whenever needed! (Do NOT use rubbing alcohol (isopropyl alcohol) which does the job but it is made from a petroleum base and is toxic to the body.)

 

When using antiviral herbs, they should not be taken for long term, but used for a couple of weeks at a time. Give yourself a break between long doses. If you are pregnant, be cautious in using essential oils. Some of these herbs may interact with medications, so be sure to read up on an herb before using if you are on medications.So read up and stock your home with a few good antiviral supplements for whenever that first symptom shows up! You'll be glad you did.Please note: None of this information is intended to replace proper medical treatment when needed, or claims to diagnose, cure, or treat any disease. Please seek the advice of your health professional when needed.

 

Best to eat a diet of healthy, whole foods, not processed, GMO, or sugary foods, which will all weaken your immune system. Include lots of fresh vegetables of all colors, fruits such as all berries, lemons, grapefruit, pomegranate, etc. Keep your stress to a minimum, get plenty of sleep, and reduce your EMF exposure from computers, tablets, cell phones, and wifi. Turn your wi-fi OFF at night to give your body a break to do it's natural repair and restore. If you would like a personal phone consult for 30, 60, or 90 minutes, please feel free to book it now.
