Immune Boost

Hi all, I have been having success getting my overall health up using some natural products I ran by my doctor and have had good numbers over all including white count, and the main thing I have not been sick since once, vene with sick children in the house the last few months. Regimen is as follows, if interested. Every morning I take a 20 ml drink of Barleans Olive leaf Extract, it tastes horrible. This is a natural antibiotic/antiviral. A great deal of clinical research has proved this. I drink a tea of Soursop leaves (Graviola/Guanabana). You boil water and steep the leaves (7 to 8) for about 45 mins. Just strain and drink tea with honey (3 Times a day). I get them from friends in Florida but can be purchased on ebay if not I can probably source them if you want to try. This is an extraordinary plant as it will fight the TCell malignancy, proven over 30 M $ in clinical research by upjohn and merck, they have not been able to synthesize for conventional drug production. Finally I take one to gel caps a day of Reishi Spore Oil (http://www.dragonherbs.com/prodinfo.asp?number=588) they are a pretty penny, but at least my numbers have steadily come to normal levels after being out of whack for 3 months+. You can also buy Reishi Kits for 30 dollars and actually grill the mushroom or make a tea of it. If you go this route, you must soak for 12 to 24 hours in water, as the mushroom is woody tough. Finally, two time a day, I drink Matcha green tea which is also an immune enhancer. A 3/4 teaspoon of Matcha Green Tea powder is equivalent to 8 to 10 cups of green tea in one shot. It also tastes good and has caffeine at acceptable levels and is slowly absorbed by the body versus soda caffeine or coffee which is very quickly absorbed. 30 to 40 mins of light cardio workout and maybe some weight conditioning is also helpful for the joint pain if some of you suffer from it. Never break down the muscle and try hard in the gym, conditioning (high reps , low weight) is best to get things flowing. I was diagnosed with NK LGL and will be undergoing new tests and evaluations next week by my med team to see what can be done. Even though there is no "planned protocol" for the NK type due to lack of receptors for chemo treatments, etcetera, this combination of natural products has been incredible for my health benefits and believe it can be for you too. Unfortunately I do not believe in all the pill or capsules sold at the standard GNC/Vitamin Shoppes of the world, you do not know what they put in if at all anything. There is no watchdog on these people, so I think it is very important to go natural and organic if you can. Take care and God Bless You All, and may we all feel better! Half the battle is in the mind, and God has a plan for us , even with the LGL, so do not become discouraged or afraid, be strong and keep pushing forward.

Thankyou for sharing this information. I know you are not a fan of packaged supplements but I have SEEN a difference in my skin with CoQ10 and think there is so much for us all to learn on the topic of immune boosting. I will pray you have good news with your evaluation next week. Take care. Tina

Would love to hear from anyone with NK LGL. Tired and have a hard time getting over the cough/cold bug. Just did a blood test for Dr. Loughen. Don't know result. Any input will be helpful.
