Can anyone give me any good tips on immune boosters?

If I get a little stressed or anything, I get sick! My daughter was up a lot last night and so I was up alot.

BAM, today I have a sore throat and feel the burn in my nose and throat. I always feel that way when I get sick.

My energy so low that I can't handle getting sick...what can I do?? I want to beat this disease so badly and this really makes it hard to remember that I might have some good days somewhere down the road.

Thanks,
Shalome

Vitamin C helps me out.

Take the coated kind though.

Easier on the stomach.

Transfer Factor

Colostrum

zinc

olive leaf extract (if you feel it coming on or when you think you might start getting sick...lack of sleep)

My LLMD has me on the following nutraceuticals, all from PROHEALTH.COM (the prohealth brand). I think they are good products. You can read the descriptions on the site:

ALPHA LIPOIC ACID
N-ACETYL CYSTEINE
FIBRO COMPLETE (Multi with malic acid)

Hope this helps.

Thank you all.

It is so nice to have a place to come to get answers.

It is just easier to ask questions here and get quick answers. Sometimes it is so hard to sort through all of the research.

I asked about ear pressure previously and got a lot of links, and I just can't go through each of them!!

Hoot.....what is the Transfer Factor? I thought there was some mention of it on the ProHealth board.

I used to research all the time on the fibro, but I just don't have the strength and the memory to do it anymore.

I do carry a book with me everywhere to read while waiting. I have a list of lyme books to read!! [Smile]

Thanks,
Shalome
