How to get rid of viruses using natural remedies |
|
The presence of viruses in our body is a health problem even if they do not cause any symptoms, but because viruses are by nature dangerous, even if they are dormant.
In fact, they are the initiation force of many defects and abnormal biochemical processes in cells.
The fact that modern medicine does not have effective methods or medicines for fighting viruses proves how sneaky they can be.
However, as always, nature provides an efficient solution.
1. Cat's claw (Uncaria tomentosa)
Cat's claw (Uncaria tomentosa) is one of the most important plants with anti-viral properties.
South American Indians have been using it for over 2000 years.
It came to the center of scientific interest because of its unique ability – it destroys viruses, reduces inflammation, has anti-tumor effect, and some recent observations indicate that it is effective against the SARS virus.
Uncaria affects the immune system primarily by encouraging the creation of lymphocytes and strengthening their effects, and we know that lymphocytes are the most important cells in the fight against viruses.
2. Olive
Elenolic acid is responsible for anti-viral properties of olives since that acid inhibits the creation of transcriptase and protease - an enzyme needed to some viruses that damage healthy cells.
By slowing viral multiplication, substances from olive leaf give the body enough time and ability to launch an attack on viruses.
Substances from olive leaf contribute to treating herpes and other viral diseases, flu and colds, fungal infections, chronic fatigue and allergies, and they are even effective against HIV virus.
Olive leaf compounds can inactivate the effectiveness of antibiotics, and therefore products based on olive leaves should not be taken at the same time as the antibiotics.
3. Elderflower
Elderflower, one of the most popular medicinal plants, is often part of the home pharmacy. Elderberry is famous in folk medicine, and is also celebrated by a famous German doctor Kneipp, mostly because of its unique power to treat colds, flu and fever.
Modern science sheds the light on the secret effects of elderberry: it has the ability to prevent penetration of the virus into the cells and its reproduction within cells.
Elderberry is particularly effective against the cold and flu viruses, and has been proven to have an effect on herpes simplex virus, and some strains. Elderberry has a strong antioxidant effect and reduces the overall level of oxidative stress.
4. Astragalus
Astragalus is a known herb in Chinese medicine that has anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and immune-supportive properties.
Chinese medicine uses milk vetch against rhinitis and irritation of the lining of the respiratory organs caused by seasonal allergies.
In combination with Echinacea, it is a very effective means to protect against respiratory infections.
Because of flavonoids found in it, astragalus acts as a natural tonic. It helps against exhaustion and chronic fatigue. Furthermore, it speeds up the recovery process after illness.
5. Echinacea
Echinacea is the best known immune-boosting herb whose substances contribute to increasing the number of immune cells responsible for the inactivation of viruses and bacteria.
It has been shown that Echinacea is efficient against acute respiratory tract infections, including influenza, the common cold, bronchitis, sinusitis, tonsillitis, ear infection, and hay fever.
It is best to take Echinacea when you notice the first symptoms of the disease.
6. Pau d 'Arco (Taheebo)
Pau d 'Arco - South American tree – is one of the most powerful herbs for supporting the immune system.
Taheebo is effective against bacteria, viruses and fungi and strengthens the immune system.
Taheebo in the form of capsules, tablets, tinctures or tea can effectively strengthen the immune system in cases of colds and flu, chronic fatigue syndrome, bronchitis or HIV infection.
Due to the anti-inflammatory properties, it is useful against acute bronchitis, whose symptoms are inflammation of the airways and muscle pain. Local application of Taheebo tincture can remove warts.
7. Black cumin
Ancient pharaohs considered black cumin oil to be a cure for all diseases. Over 200 modern researches have confirmed the beneficial effects of this incredible plant.
Because of its rich chemical composition – it contains over 100 active ingredients - black cumin is effective against a wide range of diseases.
It has beneficial effects on the respiratory, digestive and urinary system. Furthermore, it strengthens the immune system, treats bronchitis, chronic cough, and emphysema. It gives excellent results in the treatment of allergies and asthma.
It acts as a natural antibiotic, which has no adverse consequences; which is why it can be used in cold and flu seasons and even children are allowed to use it.
It is said that the best defense is offense. Arm yourself and attack viruses with these seven healing herbs.
