Fighting Off The Killer Flu: Innovative Advances in Immune Health May Save You!
Dr. Nancy Cox, Chief Influenza Scientist at the US Centers for Disease Control stated, “The ‘very frightening’ outbreak of virulent Bird Flu in Asia could lead to the most devastating human pandemic in history.” Klaus Stohr, Global Influenza Co-Coordinator of the World Health Organization (WHO), warns “the planet is overdue for a killer flu outbreak.”
(PRWEB) March 21, 2005 -- Dr. Nancy Cox, Chief Influenza Scientist at the US
Centers for Disease Control stated, “The ‘very frightening’ outbreak of virulent
Bird Flu in Asia could lead to the most devastating human pandemic in history.”
Klaus Stohr, Global Influenza Co-Coordinator of the World Health Organization
(WHO), warns “the planet is overdue for a killer flu outbreak.”
With
alarming frequency, we are being warned about the threat posed by the “Bird
Flu.” According to the WHO, this lethal H5N1 avian influenza has decimated
poultry populations in East and South-East Asia. The poultry infection may
create opportunities for a new influenza virus strain to spread easily among
humans. The world is unprepared for such an event.
Vaccination, our
primary defense, helps protect against the next flu season but not against
unexpected strains. In fact, manufacturers have been wrong about the “up and
coming” strains for the past three years.
Stohr said a dozen countries,
led by Australia, Canada, France, the US and Sweden, bought stockpiles of
Roche’s antiviral drug, Tamiflu®, Tamiflu® acts as a prophylactic and is also
indicated for treatment of influenza infection in adults who have been
symptomatic for no more than two days but is untested against any new flu
pandemic strains. Of course, as with any engineered drug, side effects can be
problematic. And the effects of Tamiflu® on children under 18 and pregnant women
have not yet been determined.
So how can we as individuals protect
ourselves? Strengthening the immune system is imperative. The truth is our first
recourse should be the medicinal properties nature offers, and millions already
take supplements. But what is not widely understood is that the beneficial
nutrients are either destroyed by the acids in the stomach or the indigestible
caplet/capsule containing the nutrients passes through the body
intact.
Fortunately, there is a solution. Cape Cod Biolab Corporation
(CAPE COD) developed and patented a revolutionary advancement called
BIO-SHIELD®. Originally, BIO-SHIELD® was developed to overcome the degradation
of the natural cranberry bio-activates as they pass through the stomach. In
clinical tests, this supplement, CRAN-MAX®, reduced the occurrence and duration
of Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) in patients by 50% to 90%. Released in 1997,
CRAN-MAX® is now recommended by many doctors to maintain urinary tract
health.
BIO-SHIELD is a very exciting innovation with far-reaching
implications. CAPE COD introduced ANTI-MAX®, formulated by Bio-Chemist, MD, Tom
Hesslelink. ANTI-MAX® utilizes the BIO-SHIELD® technology to successfully
deliver a combination of all-natural, selected anti-oxidants which boost the
immune system. Natural ingredients include ELDER-MAX®, an elderberry fruit
compound with anti-viral activities, GINGER-MAX®, a ginger oil compound with
anti-inflammatory and anti-emetic activities, GREEN-MAX®, a green tea extract
with anti-microbial, anti-carcinogenic and anti-inflammatory activities, and
BLACK-MAX®, Nigella sativa oil with anti-histamine and anti-carcinogen
activities. Thus the name “ANTI-MAX®.” These natural herbs, oils and fruit
strengthen the immune system which greatly enhances your body’s ability to fight
off infection and illness, including influenza.
Selected SARS patients in
the Toronto, Canada outbreak, voluntarily took ANTI-MAX® and recovered
significantly faster than those using traditional medicines alone. This is a
very exciting development, and formal clinical trials are pending.
