Not all viruses are the same in that there are different kinds of viruses. In regard to herbs and nutritional substances, what will kill one may not kill another. How do you know if you have a virus that is significantly affecting your health? There are blood tests, but there is also Energetic or Muscle Response Testing. Too much to explain here, but the test point is.. Virus Test Point - One finger one inch below the navel.

Vitamin A is commonly known as the anti-infective vitamin, because it is required for normal functioning of the immune system (4). The skin and mucosal cells (cells that line the airways, digestive tract, and urinary tract) function as a barrier and form the body's first line of defense against infection. Retinol and its metabolites are required to maintain the integrity and function of these cells (5). Vitamin A and retinoic acid (RA) play a central role in the development and differentiation of white blood cells, such as lymphocytes, which play critical roles in the immune response. Activation of T-lymphocytes, the major regulatory cells of the immune system, appears to require all-trans-RA binding of RAR (3).

Zinc

A number of published studies show that if zinc lozenges are taken within 24 hours of the onset of common cold symptoms, the severity and duration of cold miseries are significantly diminished.55-58 Rhinoviruses are the medical term to define viruses that cause the common cold. Rhinoviruses attach to cell receptor sites in sinus and throat tissues, become lodged in nose-throat cells, and then replicate out of control.59 By binding to the same cell receptor sites as do cold viruses, zinc inhibits the ability of rhinoviruses to take hold in the body. The key here is to suck on two 24 mg zinc lozenges at the very first symptom of a cold and continue doing this every two waking hours. Once rhinoviruses bind to their receptor sites in the nasal tissues and begin replicating, zinc lozenges lose their efficacy. 2005 Smart Publications 2005,

Don't Catch That Cold or Flu! http://www.smart-publications.com

Elderberry extract has traditionally been used to ease cold and flu symptoms, sinus problems, fevers, and muscle pain. In the 1980s, virologist Madeline Mumcuoglu, Ph.D, researched how elderberry fights the flu. According to Mumcuoglu, flu viruses are covered by tiny protein spikes of hemagglutinin, which they use to attach to, and infect healthy human cells. Elderberry extract contains active substances that are able to prevent viral hemagglutinin, or the process of the invading cells using their spike-like projections to introduce its enzyme into healthy cell membranes. She further noted that the viral enzyme is also neutralized in the presence of elderberry extract.

Scientific research - Elderberry extract In 1993, a team of Israeli scientists studied the effect of elderberry on flu patients. During a flu epidemic at an Israeli Kibbutz, half of the flu patients were given elderberry syrup, the other half a placebo. Within two days, 90% of the group treated with elderberry extract had a complete recovery, whereas, it took 6 days for 91.7% of the control group to recover.37

Olive leaf extract has been used effectively against viruses, retroviruses,

bacterium, parasites, yeasts, protozoans, fungi, molds and other microbes and diseases in laboratory testing. Olive leaf has a variety of active constituents including several types of flavonoids (apigenin, luteolin, chrysoeriol, hesperidin, rutin, quercetin, and kaempferol)26 and the most abundant active ingredient called oleuropein, (pronounced oh-lee-or-oh-pin) which has proved to be a powerful antioxidant and antimicrobial.28,29 The components of olive leaf extract inactivated every cold and flu virus they were tested against. Oleuropein may also have antibacterial properties. When unheated olives are brined in order to preserve them, oleuropein is converted into another chemical called elenolic acid. Elenolic acid has shown antibacterial actions against Lactobacilli and Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilus in a test tube study.30 An in vitro study revealed that oleuropein and its derivative hydroxytyrosol act as natural antibiotics against a range of bacteria. Most impressively, these two components of olive leaf inhibited Staphylococcus aureus, the bacteria responsible for many hospital-acquired infections.31,32 Staphylococcus aureus is notorious for its ability to mutate against antibiotics. In other studies, oleuropein was found to be effective against dozens of different viruses,33 Staphylococcus,34 Haemorrhagic septicaemia,35 and HIV-1 infection.36

Astragalus enhances immune function by increasing the activity of certain

white blood cells, which increases the production of antibodies. It also increases the production of interferon (an anti-viral and anti-tumor agent naturally produced by the body) and stimulates natural killer cells. In addition to boosting immunity, astragalus has antibacterial, adaptogenic, antiinflammatory, and antiviral effects.

According to James Duke, Ph.D., a leading authority on healing herbs, astragalus increases production of the body's own antiviral compounds alpha-and gammainterferon, which generally protect against viral invasion.16 Astragalus also enhances T-cell production and stimulates macrophages,17 which in turn help other immune cells fight bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi, toxins, and diseased cells.18

Garlic
One recent study tested one capsule daily of an allicin-containing garlic supplement (like Pure-Gar) from November through February on a group of 146 volunteers. Half the group received the garlic while the unfortunate other half got a placebo. The placebo group suffered 63% more common cold infections compared to the garlic group. Even more significant, those in the garlic group who did catch a cold suffered symptoms for an average of only 1.52 days compared to 5.01 days for the placebo group. This placebo-controlled study corroborates the benefits I have personally derived by taking much higher doses of Pure-Gar as soon as cold symptoms present. The conclusion of the doctors who conducted this garlic study was, An allicincontaining supplement can prevent attack by the common cold virus. Considering the number of people afflicted with a common cold each year, you would think this would have been the lead news story of the day. Up until now, the study has remained buried in a scientific journal, while the medical establishment still states there is no cure for the common cold . www.lef.org

 Tagamet is the brand name of what used to be the most popular drug to treat heartburn. Now that it is off patent, we refer to Tagamet by its generic name cimetidine. A little-known side effect of cimetidi ne is that it inhibits the production of T-suppressor cells.27 In doing so, it boosts immune function by preventing the immune system from turning itself down. Cimetidine has shown other immune modulating effects such as increasing natural killer cell activity and boosting levels of natural immune stimulants interleukin-2 and gamma interferon.28-30 Human studies demonstrate cimetidine's efficacy against herpes and viral warts.27,31-34

 Since cimetidine is safe for most people, taking 800-1000 mg at night (or 200 mg three times a day and then 400 mg at night) seems like an effective therapy to temporarily turn up the immune system. Cimetidine in 200 mg tablets can be purchased over-the-counter at pharmacies. The directions in the over-the-counter package insert say that up to 800 mg a day is safe, but some published studies where cimetidine is used as an anti-viral agent have used up to 1000 mg a day.35 35.

New way to kill viruses: Shake them to death Experiments with laser pulses may lead to treatment of infected people An animation based on high-resolution imagery shows a virus known as bacteriophage T4 latching onto an E. coli bacterium and injecting its DNA into the cell. By Michael Schirber updated 11:58 a.m. CT, Tues., Feb. 5, 2008 Scientists may one day be able to destroy viruses in the same way that opera singers presumably shatter wine glasses. New research mathematically determined the frequencies at which simple viruses could be shaken to death. "The capsid of a virus is something like the shell of a turtle," said physicist Otto Sankey of Arizona State University. "If the shell can be compromised [by mechanical vibrations], the virus can be inactivated." Recent experimental evidence has shown that laser pulses tuned to the right frequency can kill certain viruses. However, locating these so-called resonant frequencies is a bit of trial http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23012038/

Part of the Beck Protocol 1. Microcurrent therapy for cleansing the blood Over the years, while enjoying the fruits of a successful career as an acclaimed physicist, Robert (Bob) C. Beck, D.Sc. maintained an interest in electro-therapy for health. When he heard that viruses and other pathogens had been deactivated in a medical research study by the application of microcurrents of electricity to blood, his considerable intellect and ingenuity were aroused. While the medical research suggested the application of microcurrents similar to dialysis with the blood flowing out and then back into the body, Bob Beck developed a system to apply microcurrents to blood without invading the body. He developed a simple system for applying these microcurrents by placing electrodes over the wrist arteries. 2. Magnetic pulsing for tissue electrification After considerable experimentation on himself, friends, acquaintances and a few individuals diagnosed with AIDS, all reaped some health benefit. Soon, however, he realized that the blood might be cleared of viruses or other pathogens but these same pathogens could be temporarily hiding in the lymph system. To create the necessary microcurrents in lymph and tissue to neutralize viruses and other pathogens, he developed a magnetic pulse generator. Pulsed magnetic fields create microcurrents in lymph and other tissue. http://www.sharinghealth.com/beckprotocol/whatisbp.htm

Designs for Health

Thanks to advanced patented technology from Europe, for the first time in history we are able to truly capture and stabilize the most therapeutic ingredient produced by the crushing of garlic, known as allicin. Allicillin contains 300 ppm allicin which goes way beyond the allicin potential of common garlic products - it is the equivalent of 40 bulbs of garlic.

SILVER KILLS VIRUSES, STUDY FINDS Tuesday, October 18, 2005 www.FreeMarketNews.com In a groundbreaking study, the Journal of Nanotechnology has published a study that found silver nanoparticles kills HIV-1 and is likely to kill virtually any other virus. The study, which was conducted by the University of Texas and Mexico University, is the first medical study to ever explore the benefits of silver nanoparticles, according to Physorg. During the study, researchers used three different methods of limiting the size of the silver nanoparticles by using capping agents. The capping agents were foamy carbon, poly (PVP), and bovine serum albumin (BSA). The particles ranged in size from 1 to 10 nanometers depending on the method of capping. After incubating the HIV-1 virus at 37 C, the silver particles killed 100% of the virus within 3 hours for all three methods. The scientists believe that the silver particles bonded through glycoprotein knobs on the virus with spacing of about 22 nanometers in length. While further research is needed, researchers are optimistic that nanological silver may be the silver bullet to kill viruses. The researchers in the study said that they had already begin experiments using silver nanoparticles to kill what is known as the super bug (Methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus). Already used as a topical antibiotic in the medical industry, silver may now come under consideration as an alternative to drugs when it comes to fighting previously untreatable viruses such as the Tamiflu resistant avian flu.

How about trying Col. Joe's "magic bullet", oxalic acid. Go to Diet Items and copy the Hart Dietary Procedure (on website). Be absolutely sure you understand the "blockers". You must avoid them 100% in order to quickly elevate the level of oxalic acid in the blood. Use the list of vegetables located in Major Diseases, under Cancer, when preparing your meals. DO NOT USE THE MICROWAVE, and when stove top cooking, use just enough distilled water to cover the vegetables. When the water temperature reaches the boil point oxalic acid is leached from the vegetables and is a beneficial source of acid. After cooking drain the water for drinking. For the kids, chocolate is a very good source of oxalic acid. When making cocoa use distilled water or soy milk. The following has acquired the name of "Col Joe's" cancer pill. Use an inexpensive brand of fudge brownie mix-- I buy mine at the local Aldi"s--follow the recipe and add 2 heaping tablespoons full of plain cocoa, 3/4 cup cracked walnuts, any type, and bake as directed. Each night about 1 hour before before bedtime enjoy a 3-4 inch square piece. Another excellent source of oxalic acid is Hain Hollywood brand carrot juice. It is 100% pure concentrated carrot juice. Most of the larger chain markets carry it. It is a 12 ounce can and drink 1 can a day for the first 3 days then 1/2 a can for the rest of the schedule. In 3 to 5 days you will be amazed at how well you feel. Do not stop the diet for at least 5 more days. Remember, if you do not kill all the virus in your system it will re-incubate and you will experience what is known as a relapse. If you do not avoid the blockers do not blame the diet if you are sick 3-4 weeks.

MMS Miracle Mineral Solution No pathogen can resist it and no disease, either bacterial or virus has ever developed a resistance to chlorine dioxide. (MMS) After treating hundreds of people for six years it is my opinion that no disease known to man that is caused by pathogens (viruses, bacteria, parasites or other micro organisms) can withstand an immune system being treated daily with MMS. Jim Humble the discoverer of MMS

MMS Miracle Mineral Solution Throughout the body, anywhere chlorine dioxide ions transported via red blood cells come in contact with pathogens, the pathogens give up their electrons and cease to exist. The chlorine dioxide armed cells only detonate on contact with pathogens, which include harmful bacteria, viruses, toxins, heavy metals, and parasites. All of these will have pH values that are out of the bodys range of good health. They will also have a positive ionic charge. The chlorine dioxide equipped cells do not oxidize beneficial bacteria, or healthy cells, as their pH levels are 7 or above, and hold a negative ion charge.

MMS Miracle Mineral Solution Hepatitis A, B, and C and all other strains of Hepatitis: the patients needs 15 drops twice a day, but will not usually tolerate 15 drops. When using 15 drops immediately, the immune system attacks too hard. Start with two drops and if that does not make them nauseous try three drops on the next dose later that same day. If it does make them nauseous try one drop on the next dose that same day. Always continue with one drop until they can take it without nausea, then go to two. Most people can start out with two drops. Keep increasing the drops until the person can take 15 drops twice a day. Be careful to avoid nausea as that often makes the person afraid of the MMS and they will quit and you wont be able to get them to start again. Remember, the MMS is merely a health drink and you are merely furnishing ammunition to the immune system. A person needs to get accustomed to this mineral drink.

Subject: MMS Hi Dr. Yeary, I just wanted you to know that I have seen some improvements in my health. It has lowered my blood pressure and I was able to get off of two of my medications totaling six pills. I have been monitoring it for two weeks today and it is still good. My kidney function has gone up again and Dr. Ahmad was really excited. I am noticing some sensitivity to feeling returning to parts of my body. I am still taking it in low dosage because of how it affects my blood pressure. Steve also noticed an improvement in his blood pressure. I will update you again when I have more news. Thanks & God bless you & your family. Sue (emailed on 22 Feb. 2008 11:27 am)
