: I seem very prone to the flu virus and I suffer from a bout of the flu approximately every 2 to 3 months. I have a healthy diet, and I walk 6kms 5 to 6 times a week. I have started taking echinaeca, which has reduced the severity of the sinus symptoms that usually accompany a cold. Each time I get the flu it hits me harder than the last time and it now takes me about a fortnight to fully recover. My doctor is not in favour of the flu vaccine as I am so young and healthy!!!! I also take plenty of vitamin C.Has anybody got any suggestions???
I know where you are coming from. I too was taking echinacea then found that it also was not working. I have finally found my remedy and I presume so many other people's. Somehow our bodies are becoming more acidic - partly due to our increasing stresses and so I have been taking 1000mg alfalfa tablets. Let them take about 2 months to kick in. We have not had a cold or flu all this year and it is half way through winter.!!!
