Boosting the Immune System

There are many ways to help your body fight off colds and flus. Knowing your body is capable of fighting is the first step. But how does one maintain their body to remain in good health? Let’s Boost the Immune System.

The first step in Naturopathic treatments, is reducing the sugar levels you are eating. 1 Tablespoon of sugar can reduce your immune system in half for up to 6 hours. Everyone knows about pop and doughnuts, but many aren’t aware that this includes fruit juices. Even though many are “natural, with no sugar added” most people don’t realize that in the liquid form they are mostly sugar. Without the normal fibers and enzymes from the actual fruits, the “natural” sugars are absorbed exceptionally fast and are simply just sugars at that point.

Another Naturopathic approach is an immune boosting ampule called Pascoleucyn. It can give our immune system an extra boost to ward off infection. Pascoleucyn is a remedy composed of botanicals and homeopathic remedies formulated to prevent and treat colds and the flu. It can be especially effective in preventing upper and lower respiratory infections. It is a natural immune booster that has been on the market for over 60 years now and is a fully registered product with Health Canada. If maintaining a healthy status, it requires only 1 dose now and 1 dose again in January/February, making it convenient for you. If you are a senior or prone to reoccurring infections, more may be required.
