Influenza or the flu is a respiratory infection caused by a virus that can be contagious.  Symptoms include chills, fever, nausea, runny nose, sore throat, head and body aches, fatigue and loss of appetite.  Symptoms can last from 12 hours to two to three days. It is only dangerous for people who are immune compromised which is often the elderly.  When people die from the flu it is usually because of other illnesses or complications.  Many people in the holistic community believe that the flu “symptoms” are a sign of internal toxification and a body that is out of balance.  

Every year, thousands of people show symptoms of the flu.  It seems to run in a cycle starting in the fall and continuing thru ought the winter until spring.  There are many different strains of flu virus and therefore, as people travel the globe we are always getting exposed to new viruses.  Children will usually complain of body aches and stop eating like they normally do.  They will often run a fever of 102 degrees and sleep often through the day. The fever will spike during the night and ease up during the day.

There have been studies showing that there is a correlation between lack of sunshine, Vitamin D3 deficiency and the incidence of flu.  Many people prepare themselves as they go into the winter months by taking vitamin and mineral supplements, herbs and by getting plenty of rest and eating a good healthy diet rich in vegetables.

There is no treatment once you have the flu other than keeping hydrated, bed rest and perhaps pain medication for the aches and pains.  There are many herbs that may help you as well as essential oils and detoxing baths.  The fever is part of the immune system process to “burn” any bacteria and viruses that cannot live in high temperatures.

Influenza Vaccines

The seasonal flu vaccine used to be recommended for the elderly.  In 2003 the American Academyof Pediatrics and the Center for Disease Control began to recommend it for children under the age of five as well.  It is now recommended every year for every man, woman and child from the age of two throughout the rest of life as the result of the exaggerated H1N1 Flu pandemic of 2009. That pandemic was predicted to kill millions of people and ended up being a very mild flu season for most countries. This is a political vaccine with no scientific basis that will make millions for the flu manufactures and cause health problems for thousands.   How does a person sift through the conflicting information provided?  As a 30+ year independent vaccine researcher, I hope these facts will help you decide if you or your children will receive the seasonal flu vaccine.
