Every winter I have a number of patients contacting me for options to boost up their immune system.  There has never been a more important time to do so than now because not only will we have to protect ourselves from the influenza (flu) virus but also from Covd-19.

The regular flu vaccine is prepared from the fluids of chick embryos that are inoculated (injected) with specific types of influenza virus.  Creating the flu vaccine is an educated guessing game.  Every year a group of federal officials get together and try to guess which 3 strains of the influenza virus are most likely to cause the most problems in the winter months. Therefore, the effectiveness of the flu vaccine changes from year to year depending on how well the officials guessed what strains will be around during the winter months. 

At our clinic we offer a natural immune booster shot that is beneficial whether or not you choose to take the flu shot.  Our natural booster shot is a combination of homeopathic remedies that can be absorbed in your mouth when your mouth is clear of any flavours.   The Journal of Biomedical Therapy (Winter 2002 pg.14) published an article on the benefits of this treatment:

• It helps to decrease the frequency of the common cold and flu for the next 34 days.
• If you do get sick then it decreases the intensity of 11 characteristics of the flu or common cold such as: energy level, lack of appetite, thirst, insomnia, chills, sore throat, earache, pain in arms and legs, headaches, nasal secretions, swelling of lymph nodes, runny, coughing, etc.
• It decreases the length of time of the illness compared to placebo group.
• It can be used an alternative immune system booster to the conventional influenza vaccination (flu shot).
• It can be complementary to it to minimize all the conventional flu shot’s harmful side effects.   
• It offers a natural way to stimulate phagocytic activity of our immune system with absolutely no side effects.

All of these benefits have been largely confirmed in clinical practice as well. This natural immune system booster is beneficial for children, adults and especially for the elderly who are usually the higher risk patients.
