In your knowledge, has the FReeper community created a thread to note the natural precautions and remedies other than D3 such as elderberry and selenium, etc.? TIA.
Heya, glock — RE selenium, Brazil Nuts are chuck-a-block with it. HOWEVER, beware — a little selenium goes a long way, and too much selenium (which you can get just by eating a handful of Brazil nuts a day for a couple of months, as I did) can be seriously debilitating. I love Brazil nuts and discovered the big bags of them at Trader Joes and embarked on averaging probably two dozen or more Brazil nuts a day for months ... I’m a pig with no discipline when it comes to eating stuff I love ... and the result was that I made myself so sick I was about ready to go to the emergency room until I looked up Brazil nuts on the internet, discovered they have loads of selenium AND barium, and then looked up the symptoms of selenium poisoning. My symptoms matched exactly, all the way down to a change in my fingernails. I stopped eating Brazil nuts, and within less than a week had recovered so I didn’t feel like hammered catsh*t anymore, but felt healthy and normal as usual. I now limit myself to one or two Brazil nuts per day, and am fine. Just a head’s up on the selenium thing. :^)
I take cod liver oil for vitamin D
And elderberry syrup for C
I think it would be a great idea to have an H1N1 thread for blogs , personal stories , and what worked for someone who went through H1N1 . And any natural remedies etc..
Does anyone want to start the H1N1 blog etc... ?
I heard Vitamin D3 helps , pure cranberry juice , garlic , NAC , Castor Oil , drinking lemonade , elderberry ,Vitamin C and much more etc..
I saw a post where someone bought Star Of Anise at Whole Foods which Tamiflu is made from and it helped him not get it when his wife and daughter got it .
One article I posted a severe case at death’s door only survived by having an Vitamin C IV !
Not to my knowledge.
It might bee a good idea to create one if no one else knows of a specific thread.
