Default Re: Influenza and the Cytokine Storm

Seashore - I've been concerned about the (possible counter-effects?) of 'boosting' one's immune system, since this H1N1 virus seems to take a ride on the vital and strong (turbo) immune systems of the young. It makes me wonder if the whole path of 'bolstering' one's immunity is a good strategy for people right now. Cleanses may be a different matter, I'm not sure, but I'm going with green tea supps, tumeric, vit D...

Fina - Thanks for the Adachi link re colloidal silver. I personally liked his final comments: In the Meantime Consider Vitamin D as it Prevents Seasonal Flu"

Wrt to Vit D - and there's also been other stuff about it, deficiencies and auto-immune disorders - I read this recently:

Doctors start to include vitamin D in fight against cancer
With new studies showing the sun vitamin may slow come cancers, some physicians are eager to add it to treatment programs
