immune system booster's

[georgie24]

its time to get run down, cough up lungs, drained energy ect...what good supps are there to combat this cold season? vit c @ 5g ed + ??

vitamin c has been shown in trials to be fairly inneffective, particularly if you start while you are sick

the only thing that i would probably suggest to someone as an over the counter preparation is echinacia...though that is also not too effective if you already have whatever sickness youre worried about. as a general immune system booster it is effective enough for me (and the rest of the medical world) to advise transplant patients or others on immunosuppressive drugs not to take it

food, rest, and avoidance of immunosuppressives is more effective overall, by far

cheers

You spend too much time posting and not enough time searching....
This one has been answered a multitude of time

You know what seems to work pretty good if you use it right when you feel like you are getting sick is Zycam (sp). I have had colds last two days if I catch them in time

I always thought that decent amount of Vit C, Echinacea, and liquid Zinc all will help with the immune system.

Or just get a vaccination against whatever has been forcasted to come to your city this season?

Do all the sensible things, be mentally strong too and not think that this coming season you'll 100% catch a flu. Tell yourself " I dont' have anytime to be sick".
