What You Need To Know To Prepare For Flu Season
Flu season is just around the corner, which means it’s the perfect time to start preparing your body’s immune defenses.

Of course, you always want to wash your hands or stay away from people with the flu, but we both know that’s not always possible. So the next best thing you can do is start preparing your body to fight those nasty bugs.

The key to a great immune system is effectively eliminating (through your bowels). Unfortunately over time, it has been considered “normal” to “go” only once a day. Did you know that twice a day is considered constipation?

With your colon being so backed up, how is it supposed to eliminate the harmful toxins? Even more so, how could it possibly absorb all the nutrients you are ingesting (food or supplements) to pass on to all your organs? Both of these issues weaken your immune defense.

So let’s start cleaning out your bowel now. Always keep in mind that every body is different, so you want to consult your health care professional to discuss what is best for you. Here is some information on what I have found effective.

First you want to get your colon moving, so you should stimulate it with Herbs such as Cascara Sagrada and LBS II (LBS liquid for children or those unable to swallow capsules). Like a laxative, these Herbs get your colon moving, but unlike laxatives, you won’t need them forever. They basically teach your colon how to move along by themselves.

Next, you want to add great soluble fibre like Psyllium Seeds to grab all the extra waste attached to your colon. Psyllium acts like a broom in your colon and is able to absorb large quantities of water and soften the stool.

You will also want to add friendly bacteria like Acidophilus, also known as “Probiotics” which means “for life” (because of all the benefits they provide). The majority of the friendly bacteria in your body are there to help your intestines to help keep harmful bacteria in check. Adding friendly bacteria enhances digestion and elimination and plays a large role in your body’s immune system response.

The last Herb to add to your mix is an All Cell Detox. Through cleansing and detoxifying, this Herbal combination supports proper digestion and waste elimination. In addition, it supports and promotes proper functioning of the liver, kidneys and absorption of nutrients.

These basic rules of waste elimination apply for all ages. Whether it be a baby, 3 months old (which is when I started my daughter who was constipated) or someone who is 65.

This also information is especially important for kids going back to school, you want to build their immune system as quickly as possible to cut down on those sick days. Just don’t tell the kids that is your goal, or they may not want to take the Herbs!
