Winter Treatment – Cold & Flu Season
As autumn has arrived and with Winter coming up we want to give you some helpful tips how to avoid catching a cold and how to treat it successfully side-effect free if you have got one. As Prevention is always better and easier than treating any health issue lets start with successful avoiding becoming a Cold or Flu Victim.
Eight Ways to Avoid Cold & Flu à and a Flu Vaccination/Shot isn’t one of them!
1. Sufficient Sleep & Enough Rest
Sleep yourself healthy – this is a revolutionary Self Treating Therapy for your Health you have to try. It is easy, side effect free and doesn’t cost a cent. After a short time you will feel better, as fresh as you have not felt for a while. You think that sounds good – so lets give it a go – lay down and simply close your eyes. Sounds too easy – but it is not! Most people do not get enough sleep. People work too much, have too many commitments or watch too much late night TV Shows. It is a fact that people who do not sleep enough get sick. Studies show that sleep deficiency can weaken your immune system, affects your libido, causes weight gain, increases your blood pressure, you get more prone to infections, your work productivity sinks and your life expectancy sinks as well. Easy to understand, if your body is tired and exhausted it will be harder to fight the Flu. (See Sleep in Chapter Health Care)
2. Avoiding Sugar
Sugar almost immediately decreases the immune function – and a strong Immune System is the key to preventing and fighting viruses, bacteria and any other disease including Cold and Flu. You should avoid Sugar as soon as you feel a Cold or Flu is coming on. A better solution would be keep it out of your nutrition for good – this will improve your general health immense and make you stronger so that it is harder for any virus to ‘bug you’. Also watch out for the hidden Sugars in Food. See Stoneage Nutrition for more information.
3. Regular Exercise
Immune strength depends on availability of the amino acid glutamine, and your muscles have to supply the glutamine to your immune system in order for it to work. The more muscle you have the more abundant the glutamine supply and in turn the better your immune system works. Exercise helps your Immune System to be more efficient in removing viruses and bacteria. When exercising you increase the circulation and blood flow through out your whole body. This means your Immune System has a better chance of finding and reaching a pathogen before it has the chance to spread out.
4. Regular Wash Your Hands
If your Immune system is strong enough it will have no problems to fight off any bacteria and viruses that get into your body. Anyhow by washing your hands you can add in a little bit of extra protection. Washing hands will decrease the chance of viruses and bacteria to spread to your mouth, nose and other people. Make sure you use natural, organic chemical free soaps as antibacterial soaps are absolutely unnecessary and cause more harm and problems than good. See Chapter Skin Care for more details.
5. Eat Stoneage Nutrition
Stoneage Nutrition is so named because our genes are still identical to that of our stoneage ancestors, and therefore crucial for the development of our genes. The central idea of stoneage nutrition is to ingest "living" food (untreated, natural) if possible. After a 9-12 week regimen this type of food should be integrated in your daily nutrition as much as possible. 80/20
When is it advised to have Stoneage nutrition?
I would like you to think more about your nutrition by consciously altering it, resulting in a life-changing affect on your health. Stoneage nutrition supports the immune system and is recommended for general health, wellbeing, allergies and degenerative diseases.
Stoneage Nutrition is scientifically proven to be the food we are made to eat.
Regular ad fresh Garlic to your food
Garlic also is a strong Antioxidant, strengthens the immune system by providing antiviral, antifungal, antibacterial and anti-parasitic properties thereby lowering the risk of infections, assists detoxification of heavy metals from the body as well as lowering Homocystine. Garlic also provides numerous minerals, vitamins A, B1, C and E and contains 33 sulphur compounds including copper, selenium, germanium, zinc, potassium, iron, calcium and magnesium. It is imperative the garlic consumed must be fresh due to the active ingredient being destroyed within one hour of smashing the garlic. Allicin is the active ingredient that appears to be effective against salmonella, staphylococcus, clostridium perfringens and E. coli. This ingredient acts against bad infections, bacteria and yeasts, yet does not harm constructive and beneficial bacteria. It must be noted though, that when garlic is used it is important to compress it with a spoon prior to swallowing it (if it is not meant to be juiced). Also, garlic supplements are not beneficial and are a waste of money and swallowing a clove of garlic whole will not trigger the active ingredient in garlic. For the human body to receive a toxic effect from garlic, the individual would have to eat between ten and twenty grams of garlic per kilogram of body weight. Unfortunately the only limitation in the consumption of too much Garlic is its social offensiveness. Some people hate the smell! After consuming Garlic you should always have a hand full of fresh Parsley to neutralise the smell if you have to be around people so nobody will be offended. If Garlic makes you feel sick or you don’t like it than your body is telling you that you should avoid it!
See Chapter Stoneage Nutrition for more information.
6. Take your Basic Supplements
Including Omega 3 = Krill and Cod Liver Oil, a good high potency Multivitamin, Vitamin C (No Ascorbic Acid), Magnesium and Zinc.
7. Stress Management
With Stress, Anxiety and Depression there is no need to be treated and numbed out with Pharmaceutical Drugs (Antidepressants) as there are natural ways (Omega 3 Fatty Acid, Cod Liver Oil, Krill Oil, Stress Recovery Kit, etc.) to deal with these problems.
Besides these Natural Medicines you should always add the Universal Medicine Treatments and Breathing Technique into your schedule when dealing with these problems.
The Breathing Exercise is an effective tool to help you address the stress and only needs 5 minutes 2-3 times daily.
8. Get a Natural Flu Vaccination/Shot instead a pharmaceutical Flu Vaccination.
A Homeopathic side effect free Flu Shot in autumn or winter followed up by taking twice a day the Homeopathic Cold & Flu Kit for 3 weeks will boost your Immune System and prevent you from becoming serious sick in the Cold & Flu Season.
Eight Ways to Treat Cold & Flu’s à and again aPharmaceutical Flu Shot isn’t one of them!
1. Slow Down
With the first sign of Illness you have to slow down and allow your body to recover and prevent the illness from taking over. It is much better to stop activity for a short time rather than having your activity stop you.
2. Eat Very Light Food
Again with the first sign of feeling sick you should cut back to easy digestible food like fruits and vegies and lots of liquid. Listen to your body if he signalizes you are hungry than eat and if you are not eat less.
3. Strengthen Your Immune System
As mentioned above switch to Stoneage Nutrition and make healthier choices. Switch from coffee to green tea (strong Anti Oxidant), increase your intake on Green Superfoods, Onions, Scallions, Shallots, Leeks and fresh Garlic.
4. Regular Wash Your Hands
As written above wash your hands regularly and as Viruses are often passed on through touch and avoid shaking hands with those who are already sick.

Power Tube Technique for stimulating healthy immune system
Three drops of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide in each ear as soon as a cold or flu symptoms appear See below about the treatment of Flu and Cold with H2O2
Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) for the treatment of Colds and Flu
Hydrogen peroxide 3% works quite well and effective in more than 80% of cases especially when it is used when the cold and flu symptoms first appear. It seems to be a little contrary to common natural medicine knowledge but there are a lot of people who tried this treatment with great success.Based on the theory of Dr. Richard Simmons that the cold and flu can only enter through the ear canal and not through mouth, nose or eyes.German Research from 1938 showed great success in the treatment of cold and flu symptoms.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The success rate is more that 80% if the treatment is started as soon as symptoms appear. Three drops of H2O2 is dropped into one ear and within two minutes you can feel it bubbling and sometimes slightly stinging. Wait until the bubbling is over (approx 5 minutes) and drain the rest of the H2O2 onto a tissue or white towel and do the same to the second ear.This treatment is also absolutely safe for toddlers and children but saying that the noisy bubbling can sometimes frighten them a bit and they need someone lovingly and whom they trust to support them and put the H2O2 drops in. You can get 3% Hydrogen Peroxide in any Pharmacy.
Warning: Make sure you do not get H2O2 in your eyes if so flush with plenty of water!
