Boost Your Immune System!

I've been taking a product called Acidolphillus Pearls.They're tiny.One pearl a day is recommended.

Since I began, 2 months ago, I've started 4 colds due to crazy weather changes and everyone being sick & schneezing all about.

Every time I started a cold, my immune system fought it off.!!

This is awesome after I caught everything for years, since chemo!

And here is Dr Weil's immune defense post:

Boost Your Immune System

As cooler weather moves in, so can new health concerns. Use the Daily Tips each Tuesday in October to learn more about herbal remedies - available through Dr. Weil's Vitamin Advisor - that can address seasonal health challenges.

Throughout our lives, our immune systems are under assault from environmental toxins. Living in crowded cities, traveling frequently in airplanes, and spending time in day care centers and schools all expose us to many more germs than people had to deal with in the past. We can protect and strengthen our immunity by eating right, getting enough activity and rest, practicing stress reduction, and cultivating healthy emotional states. There are also several herbs, such as astragalus, that can help enhance immune function. Obtained from the root of Astragalus membranaceous in the pea family, astragalus has a long history in Chinese medicine, where it is used to ward off colds and flu. It is widely available and inexpensive, and can be beneficial for:

• Those with immune deficiencies
• People who "get everything going around" and want to boost their immunity during the flu season
• Cancer patients who are undergoing chemotherapies which suppress immune function .
