Homeopathy and Swine Flu
Thursday, April 30, 2009 at 8:24PM
I think it is important to let my readers hear a Homeopathic perspective on this so-called Swine Flu epidemic/pandemic. Whilst there is no doubt that this is a serious infection, the media is having a great time selling newspapers and in doing so causing alarm in the world about the likelihood or otherwise of catching this influenza. It is also clear from the current information that flu shots will not give you protection against this influenza strain and if you read Dr Mercola's newsletter, may even do you harm.
Being fearful of getting infected and even expecting to get infected is a good way to encourage your immune system to be susceptible. Taking sensible precautions such as regular washing of hands when in public spaces and eating good nutrition and basically taking sensible steps to look after your immune system will ensure you are ready to face any infection that just might come your way.
Homeopathy treats influenza successfully and regularly. So if you get flu symptoms you can start on some appropriate homeopathics. If you are unsure what to take from the resources in my article referenced below in this post, your best bet will be Oscillococcinum 200 daily until symptoms are resolved. You can obtain this from ABC Homeopathy
If you really feel you need to take a preventative, there have been some encouraging clinical results with the Homeopathic medicine Influenzum 9C. You can obtain this from Dana Ullman in the USA or email me to source either of these medicines in Australia.
Here are two great resources for you so you can obtain information about the holistic approach:
Treating Influenza with Homeopathy by Sam Adkins
Dr Mercola's newsletter about Swine Flu and how you can boost your immune system
Love to hear your thoughts and comments on this topic. Are you concerned about Swine Flu yourself?

It is very wierd, that the people that have died, did not die from the virus
but a bacteria, most I know have died from pneumonia or pulmonÃa- which is a bacteria not a virus. (neumococco) the first one and the other a severe infection.
I believe the mediatic ways of making this pandemic are more a political show and it is not fair for people what is going on
The latest news from the OMS is that the changed de name of the illness to Type A H1N1 flu
because it is not fair for the swine, and if you read the history, were the humans that infected the swine and then muted to a complex virus called now A H1N1 which also contains aviar flue componets so it has three components that make it virulent, but not mortal if treated on time, the recommendations here in America are to leave along the Inmune Sistem until you have any manifestation of the Virus, trying to make a clear view and don"t create a pandemic panic attact on the world as it is our responsability as Doctors to keep every body
calmed down with the hope we have a solution for them.
Preventive medicine is the most acertive way of thaking care right now.
Recommendations
Wash your hands before eating
etc. like you recommended on your article
lets be wise and act with all the remedies we have to offer our patients with this noble medicine. HOMEOPATHY
