Nutritionist & Naturopath

The Immune Booster Program can be done throughout the influenza season for both prevention, and for speeding up recovery from common colds and flus.  Supporting your immune system may also help with Swine Flu.  As with most natural medicinal treatments, it is the combination of the treatments that creates the healing effects, rather than one therapy on it’s own.

Make an appointment with Shannon to get started with this season’s Immune Booster Program.  Call the Greenwich Natural Health Centre at 020 8691 5408.

Homeopathic Preparation:

Homeopathy taken in conjunction with nutritional supplements and healthy nutrition can help to stimulate the body’s own defenses to combat influenza.  Specific combinations of homeopathic treatments can be used for both prevention and treatment during flu season.

Probiotics:

Your digestive system contains a large part of your immune system.  Keeping your intestinal “good” bacteria is an integral part of balancing immune health.  High quality probiotics can be used during the flu season as part of a preventative approach to the flu.

Nutritional Supplements:

A few key supplements can stimulate the immune system to help minimize the effects of bacterial and viral infections.

Herbs:

A combination of herbs is a powerful tool in preventing and treating colds and flus.  But it is important to use the correct combinations as well as the correct species of plant.  For example, Echinacea products can be made out of the tops of the plant, the whole plant, or the root of 3 different species.  But research shows that not all species or parts of the Echinacea plant have the same immunological actions.

Nutrition:

Why not use one of the most obvious gifts that nature has given us.  Learn which simple foods in the local market can support your immune system and help you keep the colds and flu’s out of your house this season.

Naturally support your immune health!
