The immunes system is the body?s biodefense. Immune function involves a complex cascade of events. There are intelligent communications between all tissues of the body. Alterations in the balance of the immune function are responsible for the cause or progression of many common diseases, including cancer, chronic inflammatory disorders, arthritis and specific auto-immune disease. People talk about boosting immune function but most often they really mean balancing immune function.Single-agent approaches with one herb or nutrient possess disadvantages and limitations. For example, sterolins (Moducare?) or mushroom extracts (MGN3? or AHCC, ImmuPower?) are valuable immune stimulators but they have focused and limited effects on only certain aspects o immune function. There is a way of producing an improved dietary supplement that can be used in combination to stimulate immune function in a more global manner. Such combinations do not rely upon an isolated component of the immune cascade of events.Any natural agent that exerts an antioxidant function can be potentially valuable in promoting healthy immune function, because oxidative stress (free-radical damage) to components of the immune system is a common reason for disordered immunity. In particular, the following antioxidants are of great value for immune well-being: Vitamin C, zinc, green tea, turmeric, grape seed extract and antioxidants found in a variety of herbs and botanicals.Botanical agents with specific immune-enhancing power include several species of mushrooms, plant sources of beta glucan, Echinacea and the potent and versatile herb Andrographis paniculata (AP). Recent research implies that AP may be a very powerful stimulator of immune function by its specific actions on chemical signals in certain cells, and it has potent immune properties. As a supplement, Andrograhis carries no treatment claims.I believe that nutritional support for immune function must be multifaceted and formulations of dietary

Established for 20 years as the definitive virology reference, the two-volume classic Fields Virology is in its thoroughly revised, updated Fifth Edition. More than 100 world-renowned investigators provide encyclopedic coverage of every aspect of contemporary virology, including the pathogenesis of viral diseases and the molecular biology, replication, and clinical significance of all known virus families.P This edition has many new international contributing authors and a greater emphasis on clinical relevance. Coverage includes new material on viruses and biodefense, emerging and re-emerging viruses, the human virome, mononegavirales, and henipaviruses. This edition also has a new two-color design and a revised art program unifying replication and virions images.P A new bound-in CD-ROM contains a viral image bank.P

Recommended by 700 Japanese hospitals, immune- stimulating AHCC is the premier ingredient in BioDefense NK+. AHCC stands for “active hexose correlated compound,” an extract obtained from a hybridization of mushrooms used in traditional Japanese healing, cultured in a liquid medium. It provides activated hemicellulose, glycoproteins, amino acids, and oligosaccharides with a unique alpha-1,4 glucan structure. We teamed AHCC with BetaRight beta glucans and a 4:1 shiitake extract for cellular protection and total-body immune support.

They won't do that, and do not let infowars fool you. (I believe some of what they say..especially re: 9/11, but not this) What the government is doing now is expanding to create pathogens then create the vaccines against biological attack. This was just on the History Channel a couple days ago. President Richard Nixon signed a permanent, non-revokeable legislation into law that they 'can not' use germ ware-fare…no matter what.
They began experimenting with germ warfare right after WWII. It got as far as Viet Nam with Agent Orange and that's when it all stopped. It most especially hurt the farmers animals in the southwest when they were trying out Nerve Gas and it killed thousands of animals and millions of dollars in revenue for farmers was lost. It just so happened that there was a military accident with the nerve gas and the wind carried it in the wrong direction, and it was exculded from ANY future use.
The government encountered so many issues with biological warefare that it began to scare government. That's why Nixon signed the leglislation to NOT use it…EVER. So, infowars is very WRONG on that count. Now, our laws are different from those of other nations, and they may use it…but we cannot; no arguments, no using 'but these are different circumstances'…nothing.
Like I said, they've had that bio-defense lab since right after WWII and they may play with germs, but they won't be using it. WHy?, because if government does, they WILL be held accountable by their own leglislation.
