  1. First and foremost, make sure you are eating a proper diet, getting enough sleep, and doing at least some form of exercise (even if it's walking around) at least a few times a week. That's the basic way to stay healthy in general, but if you find that you are getting sick more often than you would like, there are some natural options to help boost your immune system.

    Some of the most popular natural products for boosting the immune system are Colostrum, Mushrooms (Maitake, Shiitake, and Reishi), IP-6 (Inositol Hexaphosphate), Beta Glucans, Elderberry, Echinacea (should be taken short-term only), and any antioxidants.


  2. A herb called Sutherlandia, which is being used in S. Africa in Hospices with remarkable success with Aids. It has been shown t increase white blood cell count. Watch BBC-Alternative Medicine Herbs documentery, which shows the herbs being scientifically evaulated by a Professor of Medicine at Bristol University, England.

    Also, look into the MERCK patent, 1946, how to produce Hyperimmune milk. What this invlolves is when the cow is gestating, not yet having produced milk, you inject 10cc of your blood up the teet of the cow's udder, infused not injected into the udder. You do this for 3 consecutive weeks, then when the milk is produced you freeze it in bags, and drink it over the next few months.

    The hyperimmune milk contains various antigens, and cytokines {chemcials that augment the immune system by allowingwhite blood cells to communicate}, once drunk this helps with infections, this technique was made by MERCK Pharmaceuticals, prior to the advent of antibiotics, it is verry useful. Watch Jerry Brunetti's video 'Food As Medicine' on youtube/google video.

    Also drink freshly made orange juice, 25oranges a day, that will make about 2 pints of orange juice. Or 1-2g of magnesium ascorbate poweder. This is known in the field of orthomolecular medicine to increase immunity. Some even claim they have never suffered from a cold/flu in years since following the exacting discipline daily.

    Omega 3 also helps with white blood cell strength, i strictly reccommend the Nordic Naturals Ultimate Omega brand, or the Carlson's brand {added fat solube vitamins}, as they are pharmaceutical grade, and used in clinical trials. Glutamine powder is makes white blood cells, 4500mg per day, dissolved in warm water or organic milk. Look into Gerson Therapy, involves juicing raw organic fruit/vegetables, this increases immunity and fights disease, and more importantly, prevents it.

    Rife Technology therapy can help boost your immune system, as well as devitalise pathogens in your blood. Also the Bob Beck Protocol can help fight pathogens, and strengthen your immune system.

    Exercise is known to boost immunity.

    Read 'The pH Mircale' by Dr. Young, your body needs to be slightly alkali to work at its best, in addition pathogenic microbes cannot thrive in an alkali environment, only an acidic one. This will increase your immunity to disease. Buy a Regency Elite machine from resonantlight.com or add 1/2 teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate {baking soda} to every litre of pruified water you drink. Drink 1/2 your body weight in ounces per day to detox and be well hydrated. {source: Mr. X Acne Ebook}

    ======================================...

    Vitamins & Minerals

    Further  your immune strength is totally dependant on an optimal intake of vitamins and minerals. Dificiency of vitamins A, B1, B2 and B5 have mild immune-boosting effects compared with B6. The production of antibodies, so critical in any infection, depends upon B6, as does T-cell function. The ideal daily intake is 50-100mg of B6. B12 and folic acid {rich in organic spinach/dark green leafy vegetables} also both appear essential for proper B-cell and T-cell function. B6, Zinc and Folic acid are all needed for the rapid production of new immune cells to engage the enemy {pathogenic microorganisms}. Nutrients do not work in isolation, but in a synergy, they complement one an other, so i would reccommend a good high-strength multivitamin and mineral supplement, that has its consituents in a bioavailable form. Higher Nature is good brand that i use personally, also 'Mineral' is a good brand available in America.  

    Dr. Ranjit Chandra, from the Memorial University of Newfoundland, and colleagues, in a research study published in a reputable journal {The British Lancet}, took a group of 96 healthy elderly people, and gave them these supplements {mentioned above}, and the other group a placebo. Those on the supplements suffered fewer infections, had stronger immune systems as measured scientifically by blood-test determination of immune factors, and were generally healthier than the placebo group.

    ======================================...

    Antioxidants

    Selenium, Zinc, Vitamin A, C and E all are antioxidants that disarm those rogue free-radicals in your body causing damage to DNA, which is believed to cause cancer, and accelerate ageing. Vitamin E imporves B-cell and T-cell function, and its immune boosting properties increase when taken with selenium, as do the other vitamins/minerals mentioned. Sorry i cannot elaborate further, due to time, please see source 1 for more information.

    ======================================...

    Probiotics - Nature's Antibiotics

    Probiotics or good bacteria consume the nutrients that would otherwise feed the bad bacteria, and also blocks the receptor sites that harmful bacteria have to latch on to, to cause an infection, e.g. when enetering the bloodstream.

    Probiotics also produce lactic acid and H2O2 {hydrogen peroxide}, which stops harmful bacteria from growing. Probiotics also compete for and dominate space that otherwise harmful bacteria and yeasts would occupy, like Candida Albicans, E. Coli, Salmonella, & Campylobacter.

    So consume lots of organic live yoghurt or better than that is Kefir {which you can make for free at home}, or FiveLac probiotic supplement.

    ======================================...

    The Immune Boosting Diet

    Watermelon Juice - Blend both the flesh and seeds in a blender. The seeds are rich in protein, zinc, selenium, Vit E, and EFA's {essential fats}. Drink a pint for breakfast and another pint during the day, at work or when you get home.

    Carrot Soup - Blend 3 organic carrots, 2 tomatoes, a bunch of watercress, a third of a packet of tofu, 1/2 cup of rice milk, and grounded almonds or seeds.

    Salad - Seed veretables like broad beans, broccoli, grated carrot, beetrot, courgettes, watercress, lettuce, tomatoes, and avocados, adding seeds or marinated tofu piece or organic chicken/salmon, if possible. Serve with a sprinkle of olive oil.

    Snacks - Berries, strawberries have more vitamin C than oranges. Blueberries have the highest antioxidant power on the ORAC score. Berries contain many phytonutrients that boost your immune system.  Watch Jerry Brunetti Food As Medicine video, on google video/youtube for more information.

    ======================================...

    Useful Supplements

    - A good high strength multivitamin/mineral

    - High-strength antioxidant formula, with 2000mcg of Vitamin A, 300mg of Vitamin E, 100mg B6, 20mg Zinc and 100mcg Selenium.

    - Vitamin C, 1 - 3 grams per day, immediately on rising, and prior to sleeping. Magnesium Acorbate powder.

    - Cat's-claw tea with ginger 4 times daily

    - Echinacea, 10 drops thrice daily.

    - Grapefruit seed extract, 10 drops thrice daily.

    - Chinese herb, called Golden Thread.

    ======================================...

    Hope this helps.

  3. Plenty of exercise and a good diet rich in colorful foods.

  4. Besides extra vitamin C every day the two natural antibiotics colloidal silver and garlic oil every day also help.

  5. Acupuncture or herbs extract are a good option for improving your immune system. Here you can find some information about  how they work and what they do: http://www.pirasan.ro/en/latest_news/acu...

    All the best,

  6. tea tree oil is the strongest immune builder.

  7. Well, to improve your immune system, I would have to say that your diet would have to be affected. Drink LOTS of cranberry juice, and colorful foods.

  8. Probiotics ("good bacteria") have been show to be helpful:

    Probiotic Enhances Immune System Of Elite Athletes

    "Exercise can subdue normal immune response, leaving athletes more vulnerable to respiratory viruses, such as colds and flu."

    ...

    "Half as many upper respiratory tract infections and lower respiratory illness episodes were reported during the probiotic treatment compared with the placebo period"

    http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles...

    If you want to try a probiotic,  make sure you take one that has been scientifically proved to be effective. About 50% of the probiotics that have been tested so far have been found to be basically useless, containing dead bacteria, etc.

    You can look at the bottom of this document for a list of the probiotics sold in the UK and US that have been proven to work:

  9. Take Transfer Factor Plus Tri-Factor, it is scientificly proven that it increases Natural Killer cell activity by 437 percent and I could not finish explaining to you how much it has helped me.

    www.4life.com sells it, if you enroll as a customer you can buy it wholesale price, which is cheaper than the retail price that shows there.

    Just so you know, Transfer factors are molecules found within the immune systems of all mammals and birds. Dubbed “the memory molecules,” transfer factors serve as important components of the immune system throughout your entire life.

    In 1998, 4Life licensed the patent to extract transfer factors from cow colostrum. In the years that followed, 4Life launched new products, stabilized transfer factors in liquid form, patented the extraction of transfer factors from chicken egg yolks, and combined our two sources for a truly synergistic formula.

    Scientists had known that smaller molecules than transfer factors existed within colostrum, but they never determined if they had any immune activity. In 2007 the 4Life Research and Development team isolated these nanofraction molecules, tested them, and determined their potential to support the immune system.

    Nanofractions are low-weight molecules found in the immune systems of certain mammals and birds. They function as part of the “command and control” network of the immune system.

    Transfer factors and nanofractions transfer immune memory, knowledge, and wisdom from one entity to another. The two most abundant and safest sources for transfer factors and nanofractions are cow colostrum and chicken egg yolks. Because these molecules aren’t species-specific, we can benefit from the knowledge gained by these animals during their lifetimes by transferring that knowledge from their immune cells to ours.

    I hope it helps... try it, after about 2 weeks you will start feeling the changes... it is INCREDIBLE!

  10. Garlic supplements and Flaxsee Oil Supplements along with a multivitamin and lots of Vit. C.

    Story - there were these 2 elderly women who ate a clove of garlic everyday of their lives until their death.  One was 110 and the other 112 (or around those ages) when they were interviewed for a story and they swear by taking garlic.

  11. Start by being born with "good genes"

    Get regular exercise

    Maintain a healthy body weight
