I’m concerned about the growing number of people who take the flu shot rather than act preventively to boost their immune system during the nasty cold and flu season. Believe it or not, washing hands remains the best preventitive to germ infestation. You would be surprised by the number of people who simply do not wash their hands. Before trying to determine what is the best medicine to prevent the flu, start with preventing the flu. The best medicine for the flu is prevention. In our house, that doesn’t mean a flu shot. Let me correct that, my husband works in the hospital and that means he is mandated to take the flu shot. How is that possible? You have to take the flu shot. More and more companies are making their employees take the flu shot or lose their jobs. We must dig deeper in why this flu shot is promoted and touted everyone. Please do diligent research. But as for me and my house (minus the hubby) no flu shot. So this year I am taking the necessary steps for me and my extended family and I’m cooking up a batch of homemade elderberry syrup that is one of the most powerful antioxidants.
Last year was a terrible season for me. I was hit with the cold and flu several times. In fact, I was sick for two months with respiratory distress. So get yourself some Elderberry today.
