FluStop vs Control Group

Vancouver, BC (PRWEB) October 15, 2009

FluStop has had a rapid acceleration in sales growth in 2009 due to the high awareness of influenza. Since coming onto the marketplace in 2007, the product has been gathering a following. “I now get calls from across North America and even as far as London England and Hong Kong,” said Greg Gerrie, the company’s CEO. “Even private schools are calling to get large amounts of the product for their staff and students.”

Developed by a leading virologist, FluStop is a natural herbal throat spray solution which, through WHO approved clinical testing, has been shown to inactivate the Hemagglutinin (HA) and Neuraminidase (NA) in types A and B influenza. When the HA and NA, which are the tentacles that stick out of all viruses, are inactivated then the virus is unable to infect the healthy cells and thus replication prevention occurs.

On a recent webinar hosted by life-enthusiast.com, Mr. Gerrie was asked about the recent study which revealed that chances of getting H1N1 are doubled if people had a regular flu shot. “When you bypass our God given natural immune system and inject foreign matter into your body to trick it into developing anti-bodies, you might want to investigate further,” said Gerrie. Gerrie, who is more a marketer than a scientist, has had to learn about the complexities of this subject and gets his information from Dr. Sherri Tenpenny who has done more than 6000 hours of research on the subject of immunization.

Gerrie says he is delighted when he hears how happy people are with the product. Dr. Melissa Carr of Active Life Health Clinic in Vancouver states, “I have found Flu-STOP to be an easy solution and have had great feedback from my patients.” The product benefits are immediate access and easy safe self-administration. FluStop is safe for children and taken just five times per day can eradicate flu symptoms within 8 to 72 hours.

FluStop is sprayed to the back of the throat and nose and makes direct contact with any virus activity and/or bacteria formations. Users are advised not to eat or drink for 30 minutes to allow the formula to work. The current label claim for FluStop is “for the symptomatic relief of colds and flu.”

Zachary, LA (PRWEB) November 8, 2005

For the first time in memory, the president has asked congress for permission to use the military for quarantine against a Flu virus (Bird Flu).

If the government is that worried, should we be also?

Every year, the CDC (Centers for Disease Control) stresses the importance of vaccination against the ‘flu, particularly for those members of the population defined as ‘at risk’ – this includes young children, the elderly and people whose immune system may be compromised due to various medical conditions like AIDS, asthma, diabetes, etc. Patients undergoing medical treatment which may lower immune functioning (e.g. chemotherapy patients) are also encouraged to receive a ‘flu vaccine.

According to the CDC, the Chiron Corporation, a major manufacturer of the ‘flu vaccine, will not be able to produce any vaccine for the 2004/2005 year, following the UK’s MHRA suspension of this company’s license to manufacture the ‘flu vaccine Fluvirin. This means that the US supply of trivalent inactivated vaccines (or ‘flu shots) will be reduced by almost 50% for the upcoming ‘flu season! For this reason and to help cope with demands, the CDC has recommended that ‘flu shots be administered only to populations defined as being at special risk.

What else can be done?

At http://www.nativeremedies.com/index.shtml?img=126&kbid=1972 There is a new product which works directly with the body’s immune system.

OralFlu Protect may be used prophylactically (preventatively) and will also assist with speedy recovery from symptoms associated with the flu, including secondary infections such as bronchitis and pharyngitis.

Used as a prophylactic (preventative) it prepares the body’s immune system to respond immediately after contamination by the flu virus instead of the usual ten day window period needed for the body to produce antibodies specific for the current strain. It also aids with speedy recovery if already afflicted and assists in overcoming symptoms associated with the flu. The other remedies making up the preparation are effective in treating secondary infection like bronchitis and pharyngitis (sore throat).

(PRWEB) October 13, 2005

Why are world health authorities so alarmed about about the potential spread of bird flu from Asia?

Currently avian influenza is only known to spread to humans from contact between the feces or respiratory secretions of infected birds.

The bird flu virus does not pass from human to human.

But influenza viruses survive by mutating constantly and if the bird flu virus mutates to an airborne human to human virus the consequences could be catastrophic…

In a BBC Interview UN health official David Nabaro warned the bird flu virus could mutate at any time and as a human to human virus would be likely to kill from 5 to 150 million people.

Vaccine supplies are likely to be inadequate even if an effective vaccine could be produced quickly enough for a rapidly mutating strain of avian influenza.

So what can we do to reduce our chances of catching a killer virus like the bird flu?

Fortunately the safest, most effective bird flu prevention is natural, healthy and almost ridiculously simple…

Viruses like the Bird Flu hitchhike!

If you travel to any international airport you’ll notice the tighter security designed to reduce our risk from terrorists when we fly.

But one of the greatest threats to our health doesn’t fly – it hitchhikes.

Many people think viruses like the common cold and influenza fly through the air then into your body through your mouth or nose

But most viruses don’t fly into your body – they hitchhike.

When you have a flu and you sneeze, all those droplets containing the influenza virus travel through the air and land – often on items people touch frequently like doorknobs, desks or telephones

With a virus on your hands all you need to do is touch, scratch or rub your eyes or nose and the virus can enter your body.

In fact, over ninety percent of respiratory viruses get into your body when you touch your eyes and nose with your fingernails…

Cleaning your hands could be the key to avoiding the common cold and influenzas like the bird flu.

If you suffer from colds and flus on a regular basis remember this saying – “Where there’s soap there’s hope.”

Thoroughly wash and dry your hands every time you go to the toilet and any time you have hand to hand contact with people or contact with birds.

Natural soap, alcohol rubs or the specially designed cleanzology soap are probably the best choices for hand washing.

And remember grandma’s advice:

“Don’t touch your face with your hands.”

The next time you go to rub your eyes or engage in an unmentionable activity with your nostrils remember viruses don’t fly into your body – they hitchhike.

The Bird Flu has a defined area of infection and has found a host that has kept it alive for millenniums. Pigs are in the mutation chain as the virus transitions to people. The next bird flu step could be an overnite pandemic or a wimpering gasp of disappearance.

The virus H5N1, has a few similarities with the Spanish flu of 1918 that resulted in one of the largest pandemics in the last 200 years. Both of these contagious outbreaks cause high fever, lower respiratory tract failure symptoms, prostration, myalgias, and a postviral weakness that could last up to 6 weeks.

Twenty-four hour access channels have warned of a coming pandemic that may arrive in the form of H5N1 avian influenza, more commonly referred to as ‘bird flu’. The market for poultry products has decreased internationally because of a lack of consumer confidence in a safe supply.

In Eastern Asian countries entire flocks of chickens have been destroyed because of an outbreak that easily spreads from bird to bird, infecting the entire flock.

Proactive Steps

Current laboratory research currently indicates existing flu prescriptions should be an active and readily available treatment should the ‘bird flu’ H5N1 make its presence felt. While this is good news, there is a second wave effect that has historically been seen in such a widespread influenza outbreak. The second wave may occur when the flu strain alters just enough to render existing medications ineffective.

Knowledge is a primary key in the battle of any communicable disease. Understanding symptoms can provide both peace of mind as well as the information you need to know should a doctor’s visit be required.

Defining Bird Flu

Like the more common flu strains, ‘bird flu’ may include fever, sore throat, muscle aches and eye infections. However, ‘bird flu’ may also include pronounced lethargy, acute breathing difficulties and chest pain. In more extreme cases pneumonia may make an appearance as well as potential organ failure.

This virulent strain of flu virus has, to date, been spread primarily through poultry and water fowl. The limited human fatalities that have been reported have all been a result of close interaction with infected birds.

The incubation period for humans who do contract ‘bird flu’ may be as few as two days or as many as 17.

Industry Protection

Chicken farmers are taking radical steps to keep their investment safe. Disinfectant sprays are beginning to be applied and sterile clothing is becoming common when entering poultry facilities. Symptoms that include bird inactivity and decreased egg production are routinely reviewed and monitored.

What If?

Members of the World Health Organization have worked to develop a plan that could be implemented on a global scale to address both current issues as well as those that may be forthcoming in the event of a ‘bird flu’ pandemic. Steps are currently being taken to address the issues surrounding ‘bird flu’ and partner countries are gaining assistance from the findings of the World Health Organization.

Flu Shot

It is unclear if the annual flu shot will assist in the reduction of ‘bird flu’ cases should a pandemic occur. However, there is evidence to suggest they it may in fact do so.

It may be that ‘bird flu’ will never reach epidemic proportions, but knowing what it is and what it is capable of doing is a help in preparing for a flu strain that could join the ranks of some of the world’s greatest viral killers.

The best prevention of the bird flu is a strong immune system. Exercise the body and the lungs. Look for a natural antiviral supplement. While modern scientist search for a vaccine, we have natural remedies that we can employ. Colloidal silver is known to kill bacteria and virus.

TUCSON, Ariz. (PRWEB) November 2, 2005

Painful shots aren’t the only way to prevent the flu. In fact, studies have shown that a strong immune system is a better defense against infection than flu shots or anti-viral drugs. In “How to Beat the Flu,” holistic health author Mike Adams tells readers how to boost their immune system, prevent the flu, and reduce the length and severity of symptoms by turning to natural therapies. The book is available now in downloadable and hardcover format at www.truthpublishing.com.

“Flu shots actually contain the preservative Thimerosal, which is a mercury derivative,” explains Adams. “Everyone knows that mercury is toxic, and there are many alternative therapies that are completely safe and far more effective than flu shots at preventing illness. My aim is to give people the natural health information they need to stay healthy this flu season.”

In “How to Beat the Flu,” readers will learn how foods such as garlic, ginger, and apples reduce the risk of catching the flu, and they will discover how the typical American diet actually increases flu susceptibility.

“How to Beat the Flu” readers also learn:

The eight most powerful antiviral foods

Eleven herbs that protect against infections

Five vitamins and minerals that boost immunity

Simple exercises that reduce the severity duration of flu symptoms

Why flu shots are virtually useless (and, in fact, dangerous)

These strategies are all far more effective than flu shots, which only reduce flu infection rates by a mere 1%, according to clinical research on senior citizens conducted in the Netherlands. For more information on “How to Beat the Flu,” visit http://www.TruthPublishing.com
