Many Vancouverites avoid getting the flu shot because they feel the underlying premise of such a vaccination is flawed. Health food stores are laden with "safe" alternatives to fight off, or prevent, the flu but there is a different therapy which I rather use in my office and it gets right to the source of the infection.
A flu is generally characterized as runny nose, coughing, sneezing, chest pain from coughing, headache from clogged sinuses, fever (from fighting infection) etc... If you think about it, most of these symptoms involve the respiratory system. The flu is spread via respiratory droplets and inhaled. So why not treat the respiratory system?!
Nebulized IV-grade glycyrrhizic acid (derived from licorice), along with some IV-grade glutathione and saline solution is the therapy of choice, in my opinion, to prevent and help treat the flu. Licorice extract is antiviral and it helps to soothe and heal the respiratory system.
A nebulizer is a machine that mixes liquid solutions with air so that the solution can be inhaled into the lungs as a medicinal mist. Nebulizers can be purchased at your local pharmacy or from your naturopathic doctor.
Note that this therapy is also useful in the treatment of COPD, Emphysema, Pneumonia, Bronchitis and Lung Cancer.
