Yea, I get all my vitamins as naturally as possible (like Tu-san), and I actually have a pretty strong immune system. It's rare if I get sick (tho when I do, I get it bad). I got sick off the flu shot last year, but I got it again this year. We'll see how this one goes.

Well after being sick for almost 4 weeks with the flu, fever for 10 days straight. :bleh: yesterday was the first day I began to feel human again so I considered getting a flu shot next year.
Guess I'll nix that notion. Thanx, Tu. :patpat: Love the new avatar!
Sorry to hear that you were so sick with the flu for 4 weeks Eve. I agree with Tu. Besides the vitamins, minerals and herbs. The homeopathic remedies are also good to guard against colds and the flu. Also a daily dose of acidophilus or probiotics helps keep your body more alkaline than acid. Acidity can make your body more prone to the bad bacteria winning out over the good bacteria. Make sure the acidophilus is refrigerated.
There is a really good reference book called Prescription for Nutritional Healing by Phyllis & James Balch that I highly recommend.
Wishing everyone Good Health!
Arigato senpai! :bow: I feel better already :woot:

oh snap...you're starting to deal in terms that i thoroughly appreciate....good advice.....absolutely...when your pH is more acid as opposed to more alkaline you're exposing yourself to danger....
i am stoked on your post....you represent at least one other person that gels with the substance of my previous posts....proppers to you, woman~ :bow:

Yeah, but dodging venomous stuff could at least never be described as boring, right? :hehe:

Awww... thanks! :glomp: It killed all last night and all today, but it's not so bad now. Surprisingly, the pain stopped after I finished lifting heavy boxes. :headscratch:
Glad to hear at least one of us has both arms in full working order. :mrgreen:
Mine started killing me last night, and it still hurts today.
I couldn't lie on my right - and favourite - side last night cos it hurt too much. Pah.
But my bf, who had the jab at the same time had NO PAIN AT ALL.
What's that all about?
*sigh*
probably saw my last takoyaki in the hotel window.

Thanx Enna! I did pump myself up with all kinds of Vitamin C etc. I dont believe in going to the Dr. unless Im nearly dying.
But I cant do the garlic thing. Brings out the gag reflex for me. :bleh:

I know! My sis AND mum had no pain whatsoever. I have no pain anymore tho, so I'm sure yours will go away as well. :thumbsup:
@Eve: Girl, you don't like garlic?! We loves it... :drooling:
You should take on centrum (sp?) every day. Apparently that's the best pill for vitamin intake because it covers so much ground. One of those and you get all the intake you need for the day. Mind you, this doesn't mean you can ignore all the healthy food.
I usually drink a cup of milk in the morning, fresh carrot/celery juice (:bleh) in the afternoon, and a cup of green tea in the evening. Plus my snacks consist of fruits and veggies. Mind you, I'm really bad with the veggies, and inbetween the meals are usually junky. But I try... :sweat:
