Preventing and Treating the Flu (any type)
|
WARNINGThis article is on preventing the flu and the common cold. If you do get the flu, there are also treatments for the flu on this article. However, be aware that for some people getting the flu can be very dangerous and even fatal. Likewise, some cases of pneumonia are thought to be a common cold. If things start to get out of hand, seek medical help immediately. Most deaths from the flu are caused by dehydration. If a person gets the flu, consuming sugar will INCREASE dehydration. If you do get sick, do not eat or drink anything for 3 hours. Then you can gradually start drinking water and eventually add other things (which do NOT contain sugar).
IntroductionThis article talks about preventing the flu (any type) and treating the flu if a person already has it. It is far, far easier to prevent the flu than to catch the flu and try to treat it. In fact, it is easy and inexpensive to prevent the flu. So as you might suspect, "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." However, if you are serious about preventing the flu you should make sure you have all of the products needed to treat the flu. The reason is that you can actually STOP the flu dead in its tracks in many instances if you have the right products ON HAND (e.g. 3% food grade hydrogen peroxide). The vast majority of homes in the United States do not have the necessary products to prevent the flu, to stop the flu dead in its tracks or to treat the flu to make sure it does not get dangerous!!! That is why you need to read this entire article and make sure you have the products you want to use (there will be options so you don't need everything) should the flu strike your home. Also, be aware that the doses for children are far less than the doses for adults. All doses on this article are for adults. You will have to decide for yourself what doses to give for your children, though usually it is simply a proportional dose based on an adult weight of 150 pounds compared to the weight of the child. If the child weighs less than 50 pounds, and you are using colloidal silver, then you should ONLY use ASAP Plus for the treatment of the flu. ASAP Plus is very safe for children when used in a proportional dose.
Preventing the FluThere will be several options for preventing the flu. You only need one of the options.
Prevention Option - Stabilized OxygenThroughout the history of alternative medicine, "stabilized oxygen" has been the most trusted and most effective way to prevent the flu. In fact, for several decades stabilized oxygen has been used in alternative medicine to prevent the flu or common colds. This product can be purchased at some health food stores under the brands: Aerobic O7 (this is an "Oh" as in Oxygen), Aerobic K07 (with potassium), Rose Creek Vitamin O (again an "Oh" as in Oxygen), etc. For example, I took a stabilized oxygen product for 2 and a half years (15 drops a day) and during that time I did not get a cold or the flu. This was unusual for me since I was always getting the cold or the flu. The stabilized oxygen products typically contain 3% to 7% sodium chlorite. Sodium chlorite is a very different molecule than common table salt, which is sodium chloride. A new stabilized oxygen product came out in about 2006 or 2007 which is 28% sodium chlorite. The product is called MMS or Miracle Mineral Supplement. This product would only require 3 drops a day for an adult. Plus it is much less expensive than the health food store brands. MMS can only be purchased online. Just remember that an adult only needs 3 drops of MMS to prevent the flu, though I would take 4 drops a day if the flu is "going around" in your area. The drops only need to be taken once a day. So how does a person (e.g. a child) take less than a drop of MMS, if a proportional dose is less than one drop? Let us say a child needs to take 1/2 drop. Put one drop of MMS in a small glass of water. Then have the child drink only half the glass of water.
Here is one of many vendors of MMS. I would order at least 4 bottles of MMS (each bottle of MMS comes with 5 bottles of the citric acid activator) because it is likely you will have friends or family who will need their own bottle: Note: Stabilized oxygen products are sold as "water purification" products to avoid FDA persecution even though they are perfectly safe and in high doses are a cure for malaria.
Prevention Option - Vitamin CAs an option to sodium chlorite, I have heard similar stories about Vitamin C being used to prevent the flu or colds. However, a few words need to be said about Vitamin C. Vitamin C can be purchased as citric acid or a mineral ascorbate, such as sodium ascorbate. There are other forms as well, such as potassium carbonate. What these other forms are is citric acid bound to a mineral in some form. Citric acid, by itself, is not effective in the body until it has bound to a mineral and has been converted into a mineral ascorbate or carbonate, etc. Thus, the best form of Vitamin C is a mineral ascorbate because it has already been made ready for the body to use. Mineral ascorbates also do not leech minerals from your body since they already have the minerals. Most, if not all, mineral ascorbate products are actually a combination of citric acid and mineral ascorbates. I do not know an exact dose for Vitamin C, but I am confident that 5 grams a day will prevent the flu if it is a quality brand.
It should also be noted that a person who is not used to taking Vitamin C should not start taking Vitamin C at a dose of 5 grams. This will cause diarrhea. The person should build up to that dose. I would suggest the following build-up schedule (to avoid diarrhea): I do not know if Vitamin C in the form of mineral ascorbates can be purchased at a health food store, but if they cannot, you should buy a citric acid version at a health food store and then go on the Internet to buy the good kind of Vitamin C.
Here are a couple of really good mineral ascorbate products:
Prevention Option - DMSO
Dr. Stanley Jacobs, the world's foremost expert on DMSO (Dimethyl Sulfoxide), which is a natural product made during the processing of wood to make paper, claimed he took one TEAspoon of DMSO every day for over 30 years and during that time he did not catch a single case of the flu or common cold!! One reason DMSO may be able to prevent the flu and colds is that it TARGETS the lungs. This is why people who take DMSO have bad breath for short time. DMSO can only be purchased over the Internet, and due to FDA persecution of DMSO it can only be sold as a "solvent," even though many, many millions of people have used DMSO and not a single one of them has died due to the DMSO. In my cancer research I have seen people take 25 TABLEspoons of DMSO spread out over 12 hours and no one even complained about the DMSO (Note: few people could tolerate 25 TABLEspoons of DMSO taken orally due to stomach upset. In these cases the DMSO was taken transdermally, meaning through the skin). WARNING: Do NOT take DMSO orally without mixing it with at least 4 ounces of water. In other words, put the 1 TEAspoon in four ounces of water before taking the DMSO. Also, many people have body odor when taking even one TEAspoon of DMSO, thus it generally should be taken at night and in the morning make sure you take a shower and a breath mint. I cannot imagine an adult would have stomach problems taking 1/2 TEAspoon of DMSO orally, but if you have nausea then you may need to build up to the 1/2 TEAspoon.
The best form of DMSO is 70/30, meaning 70% pure DMSO (e.g. 99.9% DMSO) mixed with 30% pure water. Here is one of many vendors of 70/30 DMSO:
STOPPING The Flu Dead In Its Tracks
Your EarsWARNING: For children under 15, 3% hydrogen peroxide should be diluted 50-50 with pure water before it is put in their ears (or if they complain it burns). Suppose you get your first inkling you are coming down with the flu or a cold. What should you do? The first thing to realize is that the flu almost always enters the body through the ears. Why the ears? The reason is that your stomach has the ability to kill most viruses, but there is no mechanism in your ear to kill any microbes (well, that is not exactly correct, but there are far less effective things in the ears that can kill microbes than in the stomach). So how does the virus get in your ears? Generally by sticking a little finger in your ear to "clean out your ear." For example, your finger will pick up the virus from touching a door knob, then you may routinely put your little finger in your ear later on to clean out your ear. If you don't believe me, keep reading anyway and try this treatment. The instant a person notices the first symptoms of the flu they have only an hour or two to stop the flu or cold dead in its tracks. This can be impossible to do for anyone who is at work, but I will give you some ideas even for that situation and I will talk about a situation where you don't have food grade hydrogen peroxide. The first thing a person needs is 3% food grade hydrogen peroxide. You may be able to buy it on the Internet, or more likely you will have to buy 7% food grade hydrogen peroxide (i.e. H2O2) or 35% food grade hydrogen peroxide and dilute it down to 3%.
Diluting 35% Hydrogen Peroxide down to 3% Hydrogen Peroxide35% food grade hydrogen peroxide is VERY DANGEROUS to handle. You should always use rubber gloves and eyeglasses or eye goggles when handling it!!! Keep 35% food grade hydrogen peroxide (which has not yet been diluted) WAY out of the reach of children and write in bold letters on the plastic bottle what is in the bottle!!! First, how to dilute 35% food grade hydrogen peroxide to 3% food grade hydrogen peroxide.
To dilute 35% food grade hydrogen peroxide to 3% food grade hydrogen peroxide, use the following formula (this assumes you use a tablespoon to measure, but you can use anything you want - it is the proportions that are important) Note this is a 10.5 to 1 ratio!!! This will give you the 3% food grade hydrogen peroxide, which is safe to handle (you can even gargle with 3% food grade hydrogen peroxide).
Diluting 7% Hydrogen Peroxide down to 3% Hydrogen PeroxideSecond, how to dilute 7% food grade hydrogen peroxide to 3% food grade hydrogen peroxide. The formula in this case is 1 1/3 units of pure water to 1 unit of 7% food grade hydrogen peroxide.
For example, a TEAspoon is 1/3 of a TABLEspoon, thus put the following into a glass container: 7% food grade hydrogen peroxide is not as dangerous to handle as 35% food grade hydrogen peroxide, but still keep it away from children. It can burn if they drink it.
Using the 3% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide(Note: If a child accidentally drinks 3% food grade hydrogen peroxide it is perfectly safe and will cause no harm. However, they will very likely get sick to their stomach.) Once you have your 3% food grade hydrogen peroxide you can use it to stop the flu. This is how: Fill an eyedropper 1/4th full with 3% food grade hydrogen peroxide. Lay on the floor or lay on the bed and lay on your side (either way use a pillow). Empty the eyedropper into your ear. The hydrogen peroxide should stay in your ear for 10 minutes or until it quits bubbling (whichever is longer). The bubbling is the hydrogen peroxide killing microbes. When you get up you can gently use a Q-Tip to clean your ear out. Then do exactly the same thing to your other ear as you lay on your other side. Do this 2 or 3 times a day. Do this protocol (of putting hydrogen peroxide in your ears 2 or 3 times a day) until you are over the flu or there is no bubbling in either ear. The ear that originally had the loudest or fastest-bubbling sound is likely the ear in which the flu entered your body. If you did not hear any bubbling in your ears, then likely you got the flu via your lungs.
