After reviewing literally hundreds of these foods, vitamins, minerals, and herbal supplements, I have narrowed the list to a short selection of the most powerful supplements and antiviral products that can be used to survive the next global pandemic. These will be covered in detail in the book. One of the best foods you can eat, by the way, for its antiviral properties, is garlic. Research also suggest that if you consume shiitake mushrooms, ginger and garlic on a daily basis, your immune system function will be strongly enhanced, dramatically boosting your defense against any flu. |
You'll receive an e-mail notice when the book is ready to be published, and you'll you will be able to download the book and educate yourself about the most powerful herbs, vitamins, minerals, and health food products that the research strongly shows exhibit antiviral effects. How powerful are the effects? So powerful that many of these substances outperform antiviral prescription drugs promoted by the drug companies themselves.
Get the vaccine if you have access to it
None of this means that you should avoid the vaccine if a global outbreak actually occurs. |

The AHA has, for decades, denied any benefit whatsoever from vitamins, minerals or nutritional supplements. In fact it was only grudgingly and reluctantly dragged into the era of nutrition after being confronted with a mountain of undeniable evidence in support of nutrition for heart health.
For decades, the AHA actually prescribed a diet that avoided all heart-healthy oils, such as cod liver oil, salmon oil, fish oils, omega-3 oil, primrose oil and other dietary oils. The AHA told people that consuming any of these oils would increase their risk of heart disease. |

In other words, they put an IV in your arm and drip fluids containing chelated minerals into your bloodstream.
What does this do? This chelation solution binds with the plaque in your cardiovascular system and then helps flush it out of your system. At the same time, it is also very useful for removing heavy metals, such as mercury, cadmium, and lead from your body.
But because this is an invasive procedure, it is only performed by trained medical professionals. |

In addition to avoiding certain foods, I also supplement my diet with a wide array of superfoods, medicinal herbs, vitamins, minerals and nutritional supplements. My favorites are chlorella, spirulina, broccoli sprouts, quinoa, sea vegetables, soy products, and any of the green food powders or fresh vegetables. This is where I get my outstanding nutrition that I firmly believe plays a huge role in my ability to produce outstanding cholesterol numbers. |

As a nation we have managed to force a handful of minerals and vitamins into the food supply that prevent only the most grotesque and physically obvious disorders and diseases caused by nutritional deficiencies. And by the way, those are the only ones that really get addressed through the food supply.
If there is an obvious and immediate link between nutrition and a particular disease such as birth defects caused by a lack of folic acid, then of course this gets recognized and addressed very quickly. |

It's also an acidic ingredient that promotes osteoporosis by forcing the body to leach minerals out of its bones in order to buffer the acidity of the sugar.
Sugar puts extra stress on the pancreas and liver, and if consumed in large quantities over time, sugar can result in decreased insulin sensitivity, which is one of the preconditions for adult onset diabetes. There's a lot more bad news about sugar, including mental problems such as mood swings, clinical depression, and even violence, especially in males. |
By the way, these top three ingredients so far -- water, sugar, and corn syrup -- offer virtually nothing in terms of vitamins, minerals and similar nutrition. These are basically empty calories and they have nothing of nutritive value to offer to the consumer. Maybe we'll find better nutrition further down the ingredients list, so let's keep looking.
The next thing we find is maltodextrin, derived from corn. Maltodextrin is yet another refined carbohydrate that's high on the glycemic index list. So now we have the top four ingredients: water, sugar, corn syrup and maltodextrin. |

Get natural sunlight on your skin to produce vitamin D -- the majority of Americans are vitamin D deficient, and without adequate sunshine on your skin, you'll probably never get enough (unless you supplement with cod liver oil or other natural vitamin D sources). Without adequate vitamin D, calcium cannot be absorbed in your small intestine.
Engage in weight-bearing exercise -- by stressing your bones with weight-bearing exercise, your body will respond by creating stronger bones, with higher bone mineral density. |

Many of these genes are also affected by nutrients, vitamins, and minerals that are involved in the chemical reactions within our cells.
The truth is, we all enjoy a tremendous opportunity to affect the expression of our genes—as well as our traits, tendencies, and overall health—by improving both our physical environment and our cellular environment via diet and lifestyle choices.
Here's one of the most unambiguous examples. Let's say you were born with a genetic tendency for heart disease. |

When the pharmaceutical companies control this industry they will either raise the prices dramatically and start charging you exorbitant prices for all-natural herbs, vitamins, and minerals, or they will simply take them off the market since they will control them, therefore, making it impossible for you to have natural options to drugs. This is being systematically done so that the pharmaceutical industry can control and monopolize health care. This should be a violation of antitrust laws. The politicians do absolutely nothing. |

Using this online reference site, you can find out which nutrients help certain health conditions, or even which foods contain specific nutrients.
SupplementReference.com is the smallest of these sites, listing dietary supplements like psyllium, glucosamine and others that don't quite qualify as individual nutrients. Currently, this site is sparse, but we are working on adding new supplements as quickly as we can. In time, we plan to list actual recommended products in this database as well.
All of these reference sites are hyperlinked to each other where appropriate. |

Its revival is attributed to the presence of trehalose, which is thought to protect plants in salty, arid, and cold conditions by maintaining the right balance of nutrients and minerals needed for photosynthesis. The Cornell researchers found that a pair of genes that made trehalose, borrowed from the common bacterium E. coli, produced the sugar in a variety of basmati rice. The growth rates of the basmati rice were just 20 percent below normal when the plants were exposed to salty, cold, or dry conditions. |

She also tells us about "double digging"—reversing soil layers because the deeper soil, as she says, "has more minerals, so crops grow bigger. We learn to put leaves between the layers for air, too."
Later in the day, Anna and I are eager to try our hand at some of these new (old) practices. Under the bright midday sun, surrounded by coffee trees, we learn, for example, how to fill a gunnysack with earth, and then plant seedlings in the soil on top; how to poke holes and stick seedlings into the side of the sack as well. The process is easy, and for a drought-stricken region, brilliant. |
Scientists are still getting to the bottom of what Archaeal microbes on plant roots do, but many suspect that they may mediate the flow of minerals and nutrients and fend off pathogens.17 As one scientist learning from Archaea said in 1998, "Five years ago, we were very confident and arrogant in our ignorance. Now we are starting to see the true complexity of life. |

Nancy Appleton Lick the Sugar Habit white refined flour
Similar to refined sugars, white refined flour is a simple carbohydrate that quickly breaks down into sugar when consumed. Remember the experiment you did as a kid in elementary science class where you took a bite of Saltine cracker, and held it in your mouth to see what would happen? What happened was the taste went from a salty cracker to sweet as sugar within a matter of seconds; the lesson being to demonstrate how quickly white refined flour and refined grains break down into sugar. |

This will help ensure that you get enough calories, protein, and fiber, as well as the vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients you need.
2. Control your weight. Keep within recommended weight limits for your age, sex, and build. Obesity is defined as being 20% above normal weight.
3. Eat a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet. Ideally, no more than 30% of daily calories should come from fat, and no more than 10% should come from saturated fat. Choose polyunsaturated fats over saturated fats when possible.
4. Eat plenty of vegetables, fruits, and grains. |
Essential oils, other phenolic compounds, minerals, and saponins, to name just a few, are also essential components of their activity.
From a traditional herbal perspective, many links can be made between research-based reports of flavonoid activity and the well-known actions of plants in our materia medica. The following list highlights some of these correlations. |
About 60% of homeopathic remedies are botanical in nature; the rest are minerals, animal products, or nosodes (highly diluted extracts of diseased tissue). The medicines are administered in extremely diluted form and are thought to work by influencing the vital force within the human body. The more the dose of the remedy is reduced, the more its potency is enhanced. This is why the homeopathic process of dilution is known as potentiation. The dilation of 1 part of the active remedy in 10 parts of the solvent (usually water) is known as a potency of IX. |
Although the vitamins and minerals in these foods are a factor, nonnutritive constituents are believed to also play a significant anti-carcinogenic role.
Two mechanisms have been suggested by which such dietary components may inhibit carcinogenesis: by blocking the action of carcinogens or tumor promoters and by suppressing the evolution of initiated cells.98 Blocking agents act by at least four mechanisms:
1. Inhibit the metabolism of noncarcinogenic compounds into carcinogenic compounds
2. Induce enzyme systems that detoxify carcinogens
3. Scavenge free radicals

Powders
These are dry, finely powdered herbs or minerals. Examples include colloidal oatmeal, Lycopodium powder, cornstarch, and various clays. Their primary benefit is that they take up moisture—for example, perspiration or exudates of eczema. They can also be antipruritic and antimicrobial.
ECZEMA AND DERMATITIS
Superficial inflammation of the skin, characterized by vesicles (when acute), redness, edema, oozing, crusting, scaling, and usually itching. (The Merck Manual)
The terms eczema and dermatitis are the cause of much confusion. |

Having the proper amount of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and cofactors allows your body to operate as it was designed and can prevent and cure almost all disease including cancer.
11. Eat raw organic honey, bee propolis, royal jelly, and bee pollen.
Raw organic bee products and honey are super nutritious foods. Royal jelly, for example, has the highest percentage of components that defy chemical analysis. What this means is there are nutrients in royal jelly that have not been discovered by science. This is an important point. Remember, science is not better than nature. |

These Web sites are NOT designed to protect consumers or inform consumers about ALL OPTIONS; but rather, these Web sites are funded and/or owned by the pharmaceutical companies and have one simple mission, to spread the LIE that drugs are the only answer to curing, preventing, and treating disease and that natural remedies, such as herbs, homeopathics, vitamins, minerals, etc., are ineffective and unsafe. This is a great lie and a great deception. The Internet is becoming one of the most powerful tools that the pharmaceutical industry uses to promulgate this great deception. |

In fact, it's essential to ensure that enough fluid is available for the excretion of soluble minerals in the blood and nitrogenous waste material, especially from protein metabolism. The maximum intake from oral liquids should be that which the kidneys can reasonably excrete in twenty-four hours, and in adults this is around 2 quarts per day (2.45 to 2.7 fl oz/5 lbs body weight),
163 according to research by S. M. Kleiner at the University of Washington, published in the Journal oj the American Dietetics Association in 1999. |

This definition also encompasses nutritional supplements such as vitamins, minerals, amino acids and botanical medicines. Companies marketing "dietary supplements" cannot make specific therapeutic claims regarding their products (i.e., about using them to diagnose, prevent, mitigate, treat or cure a specific disease. |

You are deficient in minerals. Nutritional deficiencies lead to disease. Correcting these deficiencies cures disease. Listen to "Dead Doctors Don't Lie," a tape available on the Internet.
9. Drink the "magic juices."
There are several fruits that are being sold that have absolutely miraculous healing properties in the body. These fruits are from around the world and are very difficult to buy fresh and juice fresh; therefore, you must buy them in a bottle. Unfortunately, because the government requires pasteurization, these juices are in fact pasteurized. |

Kava also contains chalcones (flavokavins A, B, and C); 3.2% minerals (potassium, calcium, magnesium, sodium, aluminum, and iron) and 3.5% amino acids (Pizzorno and Murray, 1999; He etal, 1997; Haberlein etal, 1997; Singh and Blumenthal, 1997; Leung and Foster, 1996; Mack, 1994). note: There are numerous cultivars of kava containing varying proportions of these compounds. |
