Cause of dead Immune System

That is a good subject. We need the likes of the long termers to hopefully come up with some answers to a complex subject.i suffer with two autoimune problems so taking tabs for both + other complaints. I hope the term ( long termers) does not cause offence. 

When i mentiond  long termers, i was refering to the girls who have bought the T/ shirt so to speak,and are very knowledgeable about certain subjects.the likes of Elieen & MrsO. They just might pop in for a chat with you.Thyroid&PMR are my two autoimmune niggles.I think we just have to accept poor sleep,aches.feeling cr@@  in the morning. I try not to let it drive me in the ground. hope you get some good feed back.all the best HEY HO.Dave

I'm of the opinion that many take too many drugs....one drug doesn't know what the other drug is doing etc...

I take but a few which include Armour thyroid, blood pressure meds and ibuprofen for osteoarthritis, fibro and a mess from hip replacement.

I'm of the opinion that for every drug one takes, there are many supplements that can do the same thing without side effects.....all drugs have side effects, some worse than others....

I love supplments and have been taking Grape Seed Extract and/or Pycnogenol for 19 yrs this month....I have a very strong immune system and I'm 76.

I take many other supplements to keep myself as healthy as possible for as long as I'm here on this planet....

I see only integrative MD and take all supplements and a drug IF needed....

I'm in the U.S. and deal with a messy hip replacement.

Yes, I agree on antiobiotics being handed out like candy, happens here in the U.S. as well, I'm in Southern Calif...and avoid them with a passion unless absolutely necessary....

When I feel something might be coming on, I hit my Echineaca and this herbals stops anything in it's path.....I'm talking a cold or the like....I never flu shots as my immune system is strong....

Thanks to finding Pycnogenol and then Grape Seed Ex a year later....These are both from France and Pycnogenol hit the U.S. in about 1994, I found it in 1995 and at a lecture we were told it "may" prevent cancer, I was sold and the first things that went were allergies and sinus issues....a lifelong allergy and since condition....

Yes, I agree on the pollutants, thanks to our capitalistic profiteers....we fight it here and with climate change, so much is worse NOW.....it's almost frightening and I don't like to live in fear....but it's pretty bad.....

I take DGL (deglycerrized licorice) for stomach protection from ibuprofen and so far so good......it's been a miracle for me, so many take drugs for their stomach issues......I had a stomach ulcer in the 80's from a pharma drug and that was my beginnning of my dislike for the drug world....

Anway, make sure your Vit D is optimal and magnesium is critical too for bone health and heart health as well......bye for now.joy

I'm a member of some other health groups and one member just sent this info thru and thought of you and Immune System...most days I take a swig of my CS:

The establishment medical system says there is no cure for Ebola. The vaccine that they hastily put together may or may not work, but is likely not to work based on the history of vaccines.

Just before the “wonder drug” penicillin came on the scene around 1940, doctors used a general purpose, broad spectrum antibiotic known as silver, usually in the form of silver nitrate. Penicillin, which has since been discovered to be useless against the new superbugs, had to be replaced with Amoxicillin, which has also become useless. However, both drugs were very profitable, and is the true reason for their promotion.

So why did silver come into ill repute? Simply because it was much cheaper than the so-called wonder drugs which were touted with much marketing hype. As it turns out, silver (and also copper) cannot be resisted by any kind of pathogen, no matter how much they mutate, making silver a superior product.

In modern hospitals, research has been performed which shows that hospital objects are vectors for spreading germs, such as plastic trays and hospital doors. In the past, brass push plates were put on swinging doors because it was known that the copper in brass (brass = zinc + copper) killed germs. Recently, hospitals in Israel re-discovered that copper is an excellent material to use in hospitals for everything, including food trays. Copper-lined clothes, such as copper-woven socks, destroy bacteria and therefore the bad odor that normally occurs. Silver is even slightly better than copper, as it is a better conductor of heat and electricity. It could be that these conductors “short out” pathogens. Nevertheless, regardless of how they work, copper and silver destroy germs, super or otherwise.

If the scare of Ebola or MRSA comes to your neighborhood, why not be prepared and have some silver solution on hand? You could be dead in two weeks waiting for your order to arrive, and the medical establishment doesn’t even offer colloidal silver. The newer silver solutions are suspended silver particles in a distilled water base and are called colloidal silver. Sometimes they are called ionic silver.

Colloidal (Ionic) silver can be taken internally or externally. It is even safe enough to spray in the eyes, unlike silver compounds. Also, the level of silver ion concentration is so low that it does not pose any risk of turning one blue, which can occur at high concentrations (>500 ppm) and in large amounts (1 quart/day) over an extended period (months).

The Out of the Box Remedies products only use 10 ppm colloidal silver.

Keep Your Immune System in Top Shape

Besides colloidal silver, it is important to boost your immune system when a pandemic (or epidemic) occurs. Out of the Box Remedies also has an Immune Boost formula that keeps viruses at bay. The Immune Boost formula contains the top rated herbs for viral infections, namely Lomatium dissectum, Elderberry, and Goldenseal.

Lomatium dissectum has a history of success in the great flu epidemic of 1918. A certain tribe of Nevada, U.S., Indians were cured of this deadly flu by taking Lomatium dissectum root.

Elderberry has been demonstrated in recent years to make body tissue “slippery” to viruses, so they cannot gain a foothold and infect the host. This is the active ingredient in a popular antiviral remedy called Sambucol.

Goldenseal is also a top-rated antiviral remedy that is well-known by our grandmothers, right up there with chicken soup.

The Immune Boost formula offered by Out of the Box Remedies can be taken orally.

Counter-attack Viruses Where They Usually Strike First

A special variation of the Immune Boost formula has been prepared that does not contain any alcohol, an extreme irritant to nasal passages. The Antiviral Nasal Decongestant contains colloidal silver and Goldenseal, a knock-out combination for getting rid of nasal viruses. Taking antivirals orally alone does not get rid of the source of most viral infections: the ones in your nasal cavity.
