Win Against The Flu By Saying No To The Flu Shot
Few may believe that avoiding the flu in the middle of the flu season is possible. But getting a flu shot is out of the question. Recent studies have indicated that the flu vaccine is potentially dangerous. But there's no need to take a risk because there are healthier ways to beat the flu.
Mercury is an ingredient of the flu shot, as well as other vaccines. The autism epidemic in young children has been traced to mercury poisoning. Aside from mercury, other dangerous chemicals like formaldehyde and phenol are used by pharmaceutical companies to manufacture the flu vaccine.
Don't take a shot of poison. Say no to the flu vaccine because here's how to safely beat the flu:
Good hygiene. Wash your hands regularly with warm water and soap because rubbing your eyes or nose after you come in contact with someone who already has the flu virus will get you sick with the flu. You minimize the risk of infection from contagious diseases such as the flu by washing your hands so remember to do so before and after preparing food, before eating, after going to the bathroom or whenever needed.
Keep the flu virus out of your home by cleaning and disinfecting areas and objects that you or your young ones visit and use the most.
Start living healthy. Your body is equipped with a natural defense against the flu through your immune system. Making healthy choices will help enhance your immune system. Examples of simple lifestyle changes are drinking tea and not coffee, lessening sugar intake, getting enough sleep and relaxing often.
Don't take your body for granted by resting when needed. If you like you're about to catch the flu, give yourself a break and take some time off to rest for a few hours or a number of days. It's better to take a short break than get really sick and skip work for much longer.
Stay away from flu virus hot spots, particularly crowded places like shopping malls, cinemas and airports. These places increase your chances of catching the flu virus so keep this in mind if you have issues with your immune system.
Drink enough water. Distilled water has been sapped of nutrients so choose pure water instead. A quart of water per 50 pounds of body weight should be enough. Stay hydrated with water and forget caffeinated beverages like sodas, coffee and energy drinks.
