Strengthening Your Own Immunity

Strengthening Your Own Immunity
Before we can discuss what things will boost your immune
defenses, you first of all need to know some of those
things which tend to weaken it. Right off the bat, I'd tell
you up front and personal that any food loaded with sugar
or grease is going to pack a wallop and knock your immune
system silly. Right after that comes frequent and intense
stress: too much pressure for very long and your immunity
is going to get knocked to the canvas in a big hurry. After
this comes prolonged exposure to a lot of electrical
devices such as microwaves, TV sets and radios, fluorescent
lighting, electrical shavers, blow dryers for the hair,
cellular phones, personal computers, and so forth. The
electromagnetic radiation they emit will deliver a one-two
punch that will send your immune system into shock and
unconsciousness. Breathing polluted air is another thing
that's bound to "turn out the lights" on your immunity, if
you're not careful. So, obviously common sense dictates
that you should avoid sweet and fried/deep-fried foods as
much as possible; learn to relax more; divest yourself of
some electrical gadgets or don't stay around them too long;
and get out in nature enough to breathe good, clean air

Another factor which 1 haven't discussed yet are bad
thoughts and feelings. Negative emotions of any kind are
like a ball-and chain around the body's immunity and can
really drag it down in more ways than one. Try to be of a
more cheerful countenance, have hope, and think pleasant
thoughts in order to enable your system to resist disease
for a longer period of time.

Now for some of the things that will boost your own
immunity. Seeds of all types are definite power foods that
can really give things a lift. There are a class of
compounds in all seeds, including beans and grains, called
protease inhibitors lapis). They limit the amount of
nourishment that antigens can get. In other words, PIs help
to literally "starve" these bad antigens out of existence.
Munching on sunflower or pumpkin seeds, eating whole grain
breads and cooked cereals, and dining on a variety of
Legume dishes will boost your body's immunity more than you
may realize.

There are, of course, certain nutrients that are quite
useful in strengthening natural immunity. They are vitamins
A and C and sulphur. Dark leafy green vegetables are rich
in both vitamins as well as red- or orange-colored fruits
and vegetables. Many of these same items can be juiced:
parsley, celery, spinach, apples, carrots, and oranges. I
always recommend using a Vita-Mix Total Nutrition Center,
which is the only machine on the market that gives you all
of the food fiber with nothing wasted (see Product
Appendix). Or, for greater convenience, you might want to
mix some of these concentrated juice powders with water and
take them that way. Pines International See Product
Appendix) makes a nice beet root juice blend and a 27-plant
mixture called Mighty Greens

The sulphur connection is found in a number of different
Brassica foods: cabbage, kale, kohlrabi, Brussels sprouts,
broccoli, and cauliflower. Other sulphur-rich foods include
garlic, onion, figs, and dehydrated fruits. Most of these
can be consumed either raw or else Eighty cooked

Grapes and wines, preferably the dark red types, are
equally good for boosting body immunity. They have been
tested in different laboratories around the world and
proven to be very potent against common, ordinary virus
antigens like influenza and herpes simplex.

We should not forget, of course, those medicinal herbs that
have been traditionally recognized for a long time now as
possessing definite antibiotic properties to them. Some of
the more potent ones are listed below and the forms in
which they best work: red clover (2 cups daily), echinacea
(tincture, 15 drops twice daily); goldenseal (2 capsules
twice daily; garlic [4 capsules Kyolic daily); feverfew (4
capsules daily; and ginseng (2 cups tea daily).
