Antiviral Foods, Vitamins and Herbs

The following information is only a guideline to some of the items that are known to boost the Immune System.  It does not mean that you should rush out and buy them all and start eating them all.  Remember – your body may not need that, it may need something completely different for the BioEnergetic balance you are in right now. 

"Let food be they medicine' not artificial, synthetic supplements - the body can digest, transform and transport nutrients derived from fresh, organic foods.  It cannot do this with synthetically manufactured supplements.  Your nutritional requirements are unique to you - have a Health Kinesiology balance to determine if a supplement is what your body really needs.  Maybe you could be wasting money, taking a supplement that you genuinely do not need or can process in your body!
