most people don't realize that your intestinal flora is the foundation of your immunity. today we overuse antibiotics without replacing flora and people in america rarely eat naturally fermented food which feeds flora and protects against harmful bacteria. i have been making fermented vegetables and a drink called kombucha (look on you tube). i am rarely sick maybe every four to ten years i'll get something that lays me up. the friendly bacteria i use is called probiotic blend from natural choice products. i use it because the bacteria is stabilized through the entire gut and doubles every 20 minutes. i hope that helps. i also love articles and videos from dr. mercola he really does his research.
since summer 2013 i've been sick at least once a month with a severe sore throat. could there be an underlying problem? . i have been to the doctor a few of the times i have been sick and was diagnoses with strep throat and the flu. however i am sick again after just being sick 3 weeks ago. it seems to be reassuring beginning with a sore throat and headache and sometimes entering into body aches nausea or congestion.
