How do I keep my immune system strong?
Hello, I just turned 40 last august and I've been getting sick a lot lately. In February I got a really bad stomache virus and now I have a really bad cold that I've had now for seven days. I'm assuming this means that my immune system is not as strong as it used to be. What can I do to keep from getting sick so easy?

- There are many ways to boost the immune system. I am listing just a few. Every person can help their own immune system. There are some easy ways of doing this. Make sure that the natural exits from the body for toxins are kept open. This includes ensuring that the bowels function daily, drinking adequate pure water so that the urine flow is clear (at least five pints of water a day) and cleaning the sweat from your body daily with a bath or clean cloths. Remember, you need to sweat a few times a week whether its from exercise, a sauna, sex or menopausal hot flashes, or just the hot weather of summer. Breathing easily and deeply in an unrestricted way is important - exercise can help you do that. Herbs are commonly prescribed during a change of season to help a person adapt to the changing weather. By planning ahead and taking herbs accordingly, one can drastically reduce the frequency and severity of catching the common cold or the flu. Many herbs enhance the immune system. Herbs that perform such functions include astragalus, ganoderma and cordyceps. Astragalus is one of the most frequently used Chinese herbs and has historically been used to tonify the lungs and indirectly protects against external pathogenic factors.
- Two natural antibiotics that will boost your immune system are colloidal silver and garlic oil. Odourless garlic oil capsules are much stronger than odourless garlic tablets.
