Ask Joan:  Question of the Month

Q. What can I do to defend myself against the Swine Flu virus?

A. DETOXIFY and ALKALIZE your body. The very best thing you can do is to strengthen your own immune system.
Did you know that Louis Pasteur, father of the "Germ Theory of Disease," on his death bed, said, "The germ is nothing -- the terrain is everything."

Germs seek their natural habitat, which is unhealthy tissue. Therefore, clean up your own tissue cells, known as the "biological terrain," and viruses (aka germs) can't survive.

A food-related cause of immune compromise is an acidic system. Germs live in acidic, but not in alkaline terrain. A good rule to follow is the 80/20 rule: eat 80% alkaline and 20% acid foods.

I strongly urge you to take Eric's Cleanse Class . He's starting another one June 9. You will detoxify your organs, eliminate most acid-forming foods, and learn to eat on the more alkaline scale.  By detoxing your cells and alkalizing your system, you support your own immune system and stand a fighting chance against any flu virus.  Then, to strengthen your vital force, take homeopathic Arsenicum Album for prevention.

Come in on Tuesday from 11:30 to 12:30 and chat with Mary Terhune about your homeopathic options.

Eric is available every Monday for questions.

Detox, reduce toxicity, and create a more balanced, alkaline body!
