How to Prevent Swine Flu and the Six Worse Things You Can Do

How to prevent swine flu taking you over is essentially the same as how to prevent any flu. The swine flu is actually no more than a normal seasonal flu, with slight variations. But all seasonal flus have slight variations.

The following tips are all about raising your immune system. You see, you only succumb to seasonal flu, or any ailment, because your immune system is compromised.

This can come about in various ways. Some of the top reasons are:

1. an inadequate diet is not equipping your body with the essential nutrients for it to function properly
2. constant medication strips your body of absorbing essential nutrients to perform at a vaguely healthy level
3. vaccinations suppress your immune system, dropping it down a few notches
4. not having enough exposure to the sun
5. not getting outside and doing some basic exercises
6. having a negative attitude will impact badly on your immune system

So by addressing some or all of these areas will raise your immune system. This means that you are going to be less prone to catch the flu, the swine flu, or in fact any ailment.

OK, you may say, but what about now? You can address all those areas given time, but you want to know how to prevent swine flu, any flu right now!

The best way to do that, is to purchase a homeopathic remedy called Oscillococcinum, Oscillo for short. Dose yourself about once a fortnight starting in the middle of the autumn and continuing into the middle of spring. It can also be used at the very beginning of a cold or flu, but essentially it is a preventer, not a cure. So it wont be effective for most people if the flu has developed.

If you are very prone to colds and flues, you may want to take a dose every week, for about four weeks. Then drop down to once a fortnight.

Homeopathic remedies are available from homeopathic pharmacies, health shops, some pharmacies and some homeopaths.

Learning how to prevent swine flu by improving your immune system may mean that next year, you will be so much healthier, you won't need the Oscillococcinum.
