WHAT CAN I DO SO I WON’T BE SICK THIS FALL AND WINTER?

It’s almost become cliché. You get sick with “something” every fall after school starts. Every winter, right around Christmas, you’ve got “the crud.” But what is it? Very suspicious that it seems to happen about the same time every year. But no matter what you do, you can’t seem to avoid it, or could you?

GIVE YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM A FIGHTING CHANCE!

Get food allergies and food sensitivities tested and/or updated.

• If it seems you’re getting sick at the same time every year, this is no coincidence; it’s probably connected with the fact that environmental allergens are accentuated by food allergies. Get tested:

1. CPL's food allergy test – through insurance
2. Alletess’ food sensitivity test - $139.00 (includes 96 foods plus meal planner)

Start preventive supplements – NOW!

• Consult with us on what your usual issues are, and we will recommend the best preventives so your immune system will have that fighting chance. Our staff managed to sail through the whole flu season last year because we took the right steps. (My normally twice a year bronchitis seems to have disappeared for good.) Take a look at these examples of what can really help you get through the season:

PROBIOTICS FOR SPECIFIC PURPOSES DURING SICK SEASON:

UltraFlora Spectrum – broad based GI and immune probiotic – great for those who have to take an antibiotic for a bacterial illness

UltraFlora Women’s – probiotic targeting yeast and/or bacterial urinary tract infections – definitely take this if taking an antibiotic - to prevent a yeast infection

UltraFlora Immune Booster – respiratory-specific preventive probiotic

There are more in the UltraFlora group that address other specific issues – let us know what you have, and we can recommend one.

PREVENTIVE CARE (other than probiotics):

D3 5000 – high potency D – acts like a steroid to increase immune cell activity

Ultra Potent C 1000 – high potency C – purifies the blood, fights free radicals

Zinc A.G. – high potency Zinc (does not upset stomach like other Zincs do) – essential as an anti-viral, fights infection, and heals wounds

Mycotaki (anti-viral mushrooms) – for those wanting to prevent the flu, colds, or have mono, shingles, cold sores/fever blisters, other herpes viruses, HPV, etc.

ImmuCore (anti-viral mushrooms plus C, D, and Zinc) – for those wanting to prevent the flu, colds, or have mono, shingles, cold sores/fever blisters, other herpes viruses, HPV, etc.

Perimine (perilla seed) for respiratory health – used in traditional Korean cooking - improves the functions of the lungs and it may also be effective in the management and treatment of asthma

Echinacea Synergy (perilla seed plus C, ginger, licorice, echinacea)

Pneumo-Carotene (A, C, glandular lung) – for those who tend toward bronchitis – either acute or chronic
