Homeopathy shows potential flu prevention
Homeopathic medicines for prevention of influenza and acute respiratory tract infections in children: blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial.
We conducted a clinical trial with children aged 1 to 5 in Brazil, randomly assigning them to receive either a Homeopathic Complex, placebo, or InfluBio. Over the course of a year, we tracked flu and acute respiratory infection episodes. The findings revealed that children on the Homeopathic Complex experienced no episodes, while those on the placebo had significantly more, suggesting a potential benefit from homeopathy. Nevertheless, further investigation is warranted to fully understand its effectiveness.

Vitamin E enhances flu treatment
Combination activity of neuraminidase inhibitor oseltamivir and α-tocopherol in influenza virus A (H3N2) infection in mice.
We explored the potential of combining vitamin E, an antioxidant known as α-tocopherol, with oseltamivir, a neuraminidase inhibitor, to treat influenza in a mouse model.
The study found that administering both substances together resulted in a significant decrease in mortality rates, particularly when given simultaneously after infection.
However, earlier administration of vitamin E did not show the same effectiveness. Overall, while vitamin E may enhance the antiviral effects of oseltamivir, its timing is crucial for achieving the best outcomes.

I adore these vitamins! This isn't the first time I've taken them for several months. They are incredibly effective! 1. The convenient format and pleasant taste ensure you won't forget to take them. 2. Just one a day is required. 3. Results are visible quickly: my hair has stopped falling out, new fluff appears, and growth is good. The photo shows the difference before and after two jars of this biotin: +5 cm and noticeable changes. These are brilliant vitamins for hair, skin, and nails, especially worth trying in spring when hair suffers after winter. PS I've tried various biotins, but this one is the best!

Vitamin D3 reduces flu incidence
Randomized trial of vitamin D supplementation to prevent seasonal influenza A in schoolchildren.
We carried out a study to investigate whether vitamin D3 supplements could help prevent seasonal influenza A in schoolchildren. Our approach involved a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial conducted from December 2008 to March 2009.
This ensured that neither the participants nor the researchers knew who was receiving the vitamin D3 or the placebo, making our findings more reliable. During the trial, we provided 1200 IU of vitamin D3 daily to one group while the other received a placebo.
The results were promising; we found that only 10.8% of the children taking vitamin D3 contracted influenza A, compared to 18.6% in the placebo group. This reduced incidence led us to a relative risk of 0.58, suggesting that vitamin D3 supplementation may lower the chances of getting the flu.
Interestingly, we noticed the most significant benefits among children who hadn’t been taking any other vitamin D supplements and those who began nursery school after age three. Additionally, in children with a past asthma diagnosis, vitamin D3 seemed to dramatically reduce asthma attacks.
Overall, our findings indicate that taking vitamin D3 in the winter could be beneficial for schoolchildren, especially for certain groups. We believe this study adds valuable insights into preventive health measures against influenza A.

Homeopathic medicines for prevention of influenza and acute respiratory tract infections in children: blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial.
We explored the effectiveness of homeopathic medicines in preventing influenza and acute respiratory infections in children aged 1 to 5 through a blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial in Brazil.
After tracking the health of 600 children over a year, we discovered that the homeopathic treatments led to significantly fewer episodes of flu and respiratory symptoms compared to the placebo.
Notably, no symptomatic episodes were reported in the homeopathic group, while many children in the placebo group experienced illness. These promising results call for further research into homeopathy's potential in flu prevention among children.

Fiber boosts immune response to flu
Dietary Fiber Confers Protection against Flu by Shaping Ly6c Patrolling Monocyte Hematopoiesis and CD8 T Cell Metabolism.
We explored the impact of dietary fiber on influenza infections using a controlled study with mice. Surprisingly, instead of hindering protective immunity, a high-fiber diet improved survival rates.
Mice on this diet showed changes in their immune response by increasing certain immune cells, which helped limit harmful inflammation. Additionally, short-chain fatty acids from the fiber also boosted vital T cell functions.
All these factors worked together to balance immune responses, aiding recovery from the flu while preventing excessive damage to tissues.

Clinical study and stability assessment of a novel transcutaneous influenza vaccination using a dissolving microneedle patch.
We investigated a new influenza vaccination method using a dissolving microneedle patch made from hyaluronic acid. This painless transcutaneous immunization (TCI) was tested against traditional subcutaneous injections.
In our study, we compared the immune responses between two groups: one receiving the microneedle patch, and another getting standard injections. Both methods showed similarly strong immune responses against the A/H1N1 and A/H3N2 strains.
Notably, the TCI group exhibited a stronger immune response to the B strain. These findings suggest that this new vaccination approach could be an effective and user-friendly alternative to traditional methods.

NAC shows promise for liver injury
Utility of N-acetylcysteine in Non-Acetaminophen-Induced Liver Injury Secondary to Influenza A Infection.
We observed a fascinating case involving the use of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) to treat a young female patient who experienced acute liver injury during an influenza A infection. This situation raised a compelling question: Could NAC, typically known for addressing liver damage from acetaminophen, also provide benefits in other contexts?
Our findings highlighted that NAC is being explored for its potential effects on liver health during viral infections like influenza A. This is particularly intriguing given that the patient was facing impending liver failure, a serious complication often associated with such viral illnesses. By utilizing intravenous NAC, the patient showed a positive response.
Although the specific details of the study's methodology, such as control groups or blinding, were not provided, the outcome suggests promising effects of NAC in treating liver injury linked to viral infections. This case may pave the way for further research into NAC’s effectiveness for flu-related liver complications.

The beneficial properties of elderberry are diverse: the berries have diaphoretic, astringent, and mild disinfectant effects. Elderberry is a powerful natural antioxidant, exceeding cranberries and blueberries in this regard. It may reduce the duration of flu illness by four days and ease the experience. I take elderberries and prepare a decoction, but prefer capsules for convenience as my family does not enjoy it. I trust this company for its natural composition and quality. There have been no adverse reactions from this elderberry, and it is easy to consume. We take elderberry in autumn and spring or whenever we feel unwell.

Elderberry inhibits H1N1 flu infection
Elderberry flavonoids bind to and prevent H1N1 infection in vitro.
We delved into how elderberry, specifically from the black elderberry fruit, impacts the flu virus, H1N1. Using an innovative technique called Direct Analysis in Real Time Mass Spectrometry (DART TOF-MS), we were able to identify the powerful anti-viral properties of elderberry extract without the need for complicated processes like separation or derivatization.
Our findings revealed that elderberry extract does indeed inhibit H1N1 infection in a lab setting, with an effective concentration (IC50) of 252 micrograms per milliliter. Interestingly, we discovered that flavonoids present in the elderberry bind to H1N1 virions—essentially blocking their ability to infect host cells.
Among the compounds, two key flavonoids emerged: the 5,7,3',4'-tetra-O-methylquercetin and dihydromyricetin. These compounds not only bound to the virus but also effectively prevented infection. Notably, the tetra-O-methylquercetin demonstrated an impressive IC50 of just 0.13 micrograms per milliliter, which is comparable to well-known antiviral medications like Oseltamivir and Amantadine.
In summary, elderberry shows promising potential as a natural remedy against the H1N1 flu, offering a fascinating area for further research and utilization in flu prevention strategies.

Excellent drug. Probably the best among this brand. At the first symptoms of a cold, the immunity support is superb. I buy it for my children, and I see the results. Colds genuinely pass faster and easier than other children in the class. Of course, it works best in combination with other medications. It has a record amount of antioxidants and significantly outperforms other plants in fighting the influenza virus. Black elderberry has diaphoretic, bactericidal, and anti-inflammatory effects. It's particularly effective on the first day, so should be used when the initial symptoms of the illness appear. Thanks to this product, I quickly recover from ARVI and flu.

Elderberry inhibits H1N1 flu infection
Elderberry flavonoids bind to and prevent H1N1 infection in vitro.
We delved into how elderberry, specifically from the black elderberry fruit, impacts the flu virus, H1N1. Using an innovative technique called Direct Analysis in Real Time Mass Spectrometry (DART TOF-MS), we were able to identify the powerful anti-viral properties of elderberry extract without the need for complicated processes like separation or derivatization.
Our findings revealed that elderberry extract does indeed inhibit H1N1 infection in a lab setting, with an effective concentration (IC50) of 252 micrograms per milliliter. Interestingly, we discovered that flavonoids present in the elderberry bind to H1N1 virions—essentially blocking their ability to infect host cells.
Among the compounds, two key flavonoids emerged: the 5,7,3',4'-tetra-O-methylquercetin and dihydromyricetin. These compounds not only bound to the virus but also effectively prevented infection. Notably, the tetra-O-methylquercetin demonstrated an impressive IC50 of just 0.13 micrograms per milliliter, which is comparable to well-known antiviral medications like Oseltamivir and Amantadine.
In summary, elderberry shows promising potential as a natural remedy against the H1N1 flu, offering a fascinating area for further research and utilization in flu prevention strategies.

Very effective drug! I take elderberry with sodium ascorbate from NutriBiotic for immunity. The combination of elderberry and ascorbic acid offers a powerful antiviral effect. We started using it on a friend's recommendation and have been consistently impressed! I combine this with other treatments during acute respiratory infections—it always helps. We took it during flu epidemics—nobody in the family got sick. At the onset of our respiratory viral infections, when I felt aches throughout my body, we recovered completely in 2-3 days. Both I (44) and my son (12) found this combination indispensable.

This herb has changed my life regarding flu-like symptoms. I've struggled with a weak immune system since childhood, falling ill four times a winter. However, after taking black elderberry for over eight years, I now get ill less frequently, with symptoms lasting just 48 hours. When I notice the first signs, I quickly take two pills and another two every two hours, totalling six a day. More than that, however, makes my stomach upset.

Elderberry is touted as a super remedy for health care, rich in flavonoids that stimulate the immune system by producing cytokines. It combats bacteria causing respiratory infections and inhibits the replication of influenza A and B viruses. Its compound Antivirin prevents influenza viruses from invading healthy cells; its anti-inflammatory properties also alleviate fever, aches, and flu symptoms. Research indicates that elderberry extract, when taken early in flu, can diminish symptoms duration by approximately four days. A 2016 study in Nutrients Quarterly found that using elderberry prior to or shortly after travel could also lessen cold duration and symptoms. It has a delightful sweet and sour taste, making it a hit with both adults and children. I would certainly repurchase this product.

Garlic shows potential against influenza
Antiviral activity of diallyl trisulfide against H9N2 avian influenza virus infection in vitro and in vivo.
We explored the potential benefits of a garlic-derived compound called diallyl trisulfide (DATS) in combating the H9N2 avian influenza virus. This study specifically looked at its antiviral properties both in human cells and in mice to see if it could provide relief from this infection.
In our research, we treated human lung A549 cells and also utilized BABL/c mice to assess DATS’s effectiveness. We applied DATS before and after the infection and measured its impact on viral loads, inflammatory responses, and overall lung health.
The results were promising. Whether given before or after exposure to the virus, DATS treatment reduced viral loads and led to an improved immune response by increasing antiviral gene expression while also decreasing inflammatory cytokines. Similar benefits were observed in infected mice, highlighting less lung inflammation and edema.
Overall, the findings suggest that DATS may offer a novel alternative for treating influenza, specifically the H9N2 strain, showcasing garlic's potential role in managing viral infections.

Zinc treatment impacts flu virus entry
Epipharyngeal Abrasive Therapy Down-regulates the Expression of Cav1.2: A Key Molecule in Influenza Virus Entry.
In our study, we examined how epipharyngeal abrasive therapy (EAT), which includes the use of zinc chloride, affects the expression of a key molecule known as Cav1.2. This molecule is essential for the influenza virus to enter cells, making it a crucial target in flu prevention strategies.
We compared two groups of patients: those who received EAT and those who did not. Our findings revealed that the levels of Cav1.2 were significantly lower in the EAT group, at a striking 4.19 times less than in the non-treated group. This suggests that the squamous metaplasia induced by EAT—which is a process of changing the epithelium—could be a beneficial approach to limiting flu infections.
The results of the study highlight zinc's potential indirect role in flu prevention by remarking on its contribution to lowering the expression of a critical receptor for the virus. Although we didn't isolate the effects of zinc alone, the findings indicate that treatments involving zinc, like EAT, may offer a straightforward way to help limit the impact of influenza.

Zinc treatment impacts flu virus entry
Epipharyngeal Abrasive Therapy Down-regulates the Expression of Cav1.2: A Key Molecule in Influenza Virus Entry.
In our study, we examined how epipharyngeal abrasive therapy (EAT), which includes the use of zinc chloride, affects the expression of a key molecule known as Cav1.2. This molecule is essential for the influenza virus to enter cells, making it a crucial target in flu prevention strategies.
We compared two groups of patients: those who received EAT and those who did not. Our findings revealed that the levels of Cav1.2 were significantly lower in the EAT group, at a striking 4.19 times less than in the non-treated group. This suggests that the squamous metaplasia induced by EAT—which is a process of changing the epithelium—could be a beneficial approach to limiting flu infections.

Vitamin C mitigates flu pneumonia
A new mechanism of vitamin C effects on A/FM/1/47(H1N1) virus-induced pneumonia in restraint-stressed mice.
We examined the effects of vitamin C on pneumonia caused by the influenza virus, specifically the H1N1 strain, in mice under stress. The study found that when exposed to restraint stress, the mice experienced increased mortality and more severe pneumonia symptoms.
However, by giving them oral vitamin C at doses of 125 and 250 mg/kg, we observed a significant reduction in these severe outcomes. Vitamin C seemed to modulate the expression of certain genes related to the immune response, such as MAVS and IRF3, and increased the expression of NF-κB, which plays a key role in the body's antiviral defense.
Our research suggested that vitamin C's protective effects might stem from its ability to inhibit excess cortisol production in the adrenal gland, which is often elevated due to stress. By lowering cortisol levels, vitamin C may help reduce susceptibility to influenza infections, making it a potential ally during the flu season, especially for those experiencing stress.
Through these findings, we highlighted a new mechanism for how vitamin C can be beneficial during influenza infections, particularly for those who are feeling overwhelmed.

Zinc treatment impacts flu virus entry
Epipharyngeal Abrasive Therapy Down-regulates the Expression of Cav1.2: A Key Molecule in Influenza Virus Entry.
In our study, we examined how epipharyngeal abrasive therapy (EAT), which includes the use of zinc chloride, affects the expression of a key molecule known as Cav1.2. This molecule is essential for the influenza virus to enter cells, making it a crucial target in flu prevention strategies.
We compared two groups of patients: those who received EAT and those who did not. Our findings revealed that the levels of Cav1.2 were significantly lower in the EAT group, at a striking 4.19 times less than in the non-treated group. This suggests that the squamous metaplasia induced by EAT—which is a process of changing the epithelium—could be a beneficial approach to limiting flu infections.
The results of the study highlight zinc's potential indirect role in flu prevention by remarking on its contribution to lowering the expression of a critical receptor for the virus. Although we didn't isolate the effects of zinc alone, the findings indicate that treatments involving zinc, like EAT, may offer a straightforward way to help limit the impact of influenza.

Magnesium essential for immune response
Mg regulation of kinase signaling and immune function.
We explored how magnesium affects our immune response, particularly in relation to fighting off influenza. By examining how magnesium levels influence T cell function, we noticed that lower levels of magnesium in the body could hinder the T cell receptor (TCR) activation process. This is significant because TCR activation is crucial for mounting an effective immune response against viruses like influenza.
Our findings revealed that insufficient magnesium decreases the activation of important immune cells, specifically CD8 T cells, which are vital for responding to infections. This was further demonstrated in mice where reduced serum magnesium concentrations led to weaker immune responses and more severe illness from influenza A virus.
Overall, we observed that magnesium not only serves as an essential cofactor in cellular processes but also plays a direct role in maintaining strong immune function. Ensuring an adequate intake of magnesium is therefore important for enhancing our ability to combat viral infections effectively.

We examined the effects of vitamin C on pneumonia caused by the influenza virus, specifically the H1N1 strain, in mice under stress. The study found that when exposed to restraint stress, the mice experienced increased mortality and more severe pneumonia symptoms.
However, by giving them oral vitamin C at doses of 125 and 250 mg/kg, we observed a significant reduction in these severe outcomes. Vitamin C seemed to modulate the expression of certain genes related to the immune response, such as MAVS and IRF3, and increased the expression of NF-κB, which plays a key role in the body's antiviral defense.
Our research suggested that vitamin C's protective effects might stem from its ability to inhibit excess cortisol production in the adrenal gland, which is often elevated due to stress. By lowering cortisol levels, vitamin C may help reduce susceptibility to influenza infections, making it a potential ally during the flu season, especially for those experiencing stress.
Through these findings, we highlighted a new mechanism for how vitamin C can be beneficial during influenza infections, particularly for those who are feeling overwhelmed.

Unbelievable product in terms of both results and value for money! I struggled with swallowing tablets and initially took vitamin C capsules; however, the results were not the same. I shared the tablets with friends who had flu, and within 24 hours they felt better. When I caught the flu this week and took the capsules, I noticed no improvement. Today, I managed to swallow the Now Foods tablets, and I am already feeling almost back to normal. This product is fabulous! I'm so glad to have experienced such positive results.

They work quickly! I felt immediate relief from flu symptoms as soon as I took the first cap. I had been feeling unwell, weak, and mentally confused due to a virus. With each cap I took, I regained strength and clarity. I highly recommend these and have ordered additional products from this brand, including Madre Labs C. However, I believe GOL raw C is superior. It's wise to stock up during colder weather as these are raw and could be compromised in hot conditions.

Ascorbic acid is a vitamin that our bodies cannot create, hence we need to obtain it from food. A lack of proper nutrition can lead to a deficiency. It aids in various metabolic processes, enhances resistance to infections, and supports tissue regeneration. For treating vitamin C deficiency, a daily intake of 1000 mg is recommended. I experienced no allergic reactions or side effects, and I found I was less ill and endured colds and flu more easily. I highly recommend it.

We examined the effects of vitamin C on pneumonia caused by the influenza virus, specifically the H1N1 strain, in mice under stress. The study found that when exposed to restraint stress, the mice experienced increased mortality and more severe pneumonia symptoms.
However, by giving them oral vitamin C at doses of 125 and 250 mg/kg, we observed a significant reduction in these severe outcomes. Vitamin C seemed to modulate the expression of certain genes related to the immune response, such as MAVS and IRF3, and increased the expression of NF-κB, which plays a key role in the body's antiviral defense.
Our research suggested that vitamin C's protective effects might stem from its ability to inhibit excess cortisol production in the adrenal gland, which is often elevated due to stress. By lowering cortisol levels, vitamin C may help reduce susceptibility to influenza infections, making it a potential ally during the flu season, especially for those experiencing stress.
Through these findings, we highlighted a new mechanism for how vitamin C can be beneficial during influenza infections, particularly for those who are feeling overwhelmed.

MY IMPRESSIONS: The tablets can be hard to swallow and may scratch the throat initially, but I'm used to it now. It's essential to take them after a proper meal to avoid stomach discomfort. At the first sign of cold or flu, I take two pills; the next day, I feel energised again. I believe vitamin C strengthens immunity, and I've noticed many around me fall ill while I remain well. It boosts my energy levels and improves my mood. Surprisingly, it also enhances my skin's condition, leading to a clearer complexion.

Vitamin D reduces flu risk
Association Between Vitamin D and Influenza: Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Trials.
We explored the potential benefits of vitamin D supplementation for reducing the risk of influenza infections. Through a comprehensive analysis of multiple Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs), we aimed to clarify whether taking vitamin D can help prevent the flu.
Our investigation identified 10 relevant trials that included a total of 4,859 participants. These studies varied in their dosages and duration of vitamin D use, allowing us to assess overall effectiveness across different populations.
The findings were encouraging: our analysis demonstrated that vitamin D supplementation appears to significantly reduce the risk of getting influenza, suggesting that those who increase their vitamin D intake might be better protected during flu season.
Importantly, we did not find significant differences between the studies that could affect our result, and there was no hint of publication bias. Consequently, we can confidently suggest that including vitamin D in our health strategies could enhance our defenses against the flu.

Magnesium essential for immune response
Mg regulation of kinase signaling and immune function.
We explored how magnesium affects our immune response, particularly in relation to fighting off influenza. By examining how magnesium levels influence T cell function, we noticed that lower levels of magnesium in the body could hinder the T cell receptor (TCR) activation process. This is significant because TCR activation is crucial for mounting an effective immune response against viruses like influenza.
Our findings revealed that insufficient magnesium decreases the activation of important immune cells, specifically CD8 T cells, which are vital for responding to infections. This was further demonstrated in mice where reduced serum magnesium concentrations led to weaker immune responses and more severe illness from influenza A virus.
Overall, we observed that magnesium not only serves as an essential cofactor in cellular processes but also plays a direct role in maintaining strong immune function. Ensuring an adequate intake of magnesium is therefore important for enhancing our ability to combat viral infections effectively.

Overall, we observed that magnesium not only serves as an essential cofactor in cellular processes but also plays a direct role in maintaining strong immune function. Ensuring an adequate intake of magnesium is therefore important for enhancing our ability to combat viral infections effectively.

Healthy vitamins and excellent sleep! Magnesium acts as a natural anti-stress factor, reducing sensitivity to external influences and inhibiting excitation processes in the central nervous system. Insufficient magnesium can lead to anxiety, insomnia, and fatigue. People often experience "causeless" headaches. Magnesium, especially when paired with vitamin B6, normalises the nervous system during stress and depression. I took NOW Magnesium with Vitamin B6 nightly to alleviate stress, irritability, and improve sleep. The effects were noticeable; my sleep and nerves improved significantly! I advise against taking it on an empty stomach. Remarkably, my eye puffiness decreased in the morning!

Magnesium essential for immune response
Mg regulation of kinase signaling and immune function.
We explored how magnesium affects our immune response, particularly in relation to fighting off influenza. By examining how magnesium levels influence T cell function, we noticed that lower levels of magnesium in the body could hinder the T cell receptor (TCR) activation process. This is significant because TCR activation is crucial for mounting an effective immune response against viruses like influenza.

Melatonin mitigates flu-induced lung injury
Melatonin alleviates lung injury in H1N1-infected mice by mast cell inactivation and cytokine storm suppression.
We explored the potential of melatonin as a treatment for H1N1 flu infection. In our study, we found that melatonin, a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compound, could significantly protect against the flu in both laboratory tests and in living mice.
Our findings showed that higher local levels of melatonin in the nose and lungs correlated with lower death rates from the virus. In fact, melatonin-deficient mice had much higher mortality rates, which were notably reduced when treated with melatonin.
We discovered that melatonin primarily works by targeting mast cells, which are important players in the body’s immune response. By suppressing the activation of these cells after H1N1 infection, melatonin helps control the release of inflammatory proteins, leading to less damage in lung tissue. This mechanism highlights how melatonin treatment can prevent serious lung injury caused by the virus, opening up new avenues for post-flu recovery strategies.

Selenium supplementation has beneficial and detrimental effects on immunity to influenza vaccine in older adults.
We conducted a 12-week study to explore the effects of selenium supplementation on flu immunity in healthy adults aged 50-64. Participants were divided into groups receiving different selenium doses or no selenium at all.
The results indicated that selenium could have both positive and negative impacts on immunity against the flu vaccine, influenced by the amount and type of selenium consumed. This complexity highlights the need for careful consideration of the benefits and risks associated with selenium supplementation in boosting flu immunity.

We explored the potential health benefits of Vochysia divergens, also known as Cambará, particularly in treating flu symptoms. By using an aqueous leaf extract, we investigated its effects on immune cells. Our results showed that the extract and its isolated flavonoid significantly reduced the production of inflammation markers in lab-grown macrophages and lymphocytes. This supports local traditions that recommend Cambará leaf tea for respiratory issues like asthma and flu. However, further research is necessary to fully understand its pharmaceutical potential.

Astragaloside IV lowers H1N1 inflammation
Astragaloside IV attenuates IL-1β secretion by enhancing autophagy in H1N1 infection.
We investigated the effects of astragalus root, specifically a compound known as astragaloside IV (AS-IV), on H1N1 infection, which can cause severe respiratory issues. The key focus was on how AS-IV impacts autophagy, a process cells use to manage inflammation.
In our findings, AS-IV enhanced the formation of autophagosomes, cell structures that help clean up trash within cells, in the context of H1N1 infection. This was significant because H1N1 often leads to an overwhelming release of inflammatory substances, known as a cytokine storm, which can worsen pneumonia symptoms. Surprisingly, while AS-IV didn't impact viral replication or levels of pro-inflammatory proteins, it did significantly lower the secretion of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β), a key inflammatory marker.
Overall, our study suggests that AS-IV could be helpful in reducing harmful inflammation during H1N1 infection, promoting autophagy activation as a potential avenue for treatment. However, it's crucial to note that the research did not isolate AS-IV's effectiveness specifically as a flu treatment. This leaves some questions remaining about its overall impact on flu symptoms.

Vitamin D reduces flu risk
Association Between Vitamin D and Influenza: Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Trials.
We explored the potential benefits of vitamin D supplementation for reducing the risk of influenza infections. Through a comprehensive analysis of multiple Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs), we aimed to clarify whether taking vitamin D can help prevent the flu.
Our investigation identified 10 relevant trials that included a total of 4,859 participants. These studies varied in their dosages and duration of vitamin D use, allowing us to assess overall effectiveness across different populations.
The findings were encouraging: our analysis demonstrated that vitamin D supplementation appears to significantly reduce the risk of getting influenza, suggesting that those who increase their vitamin D intake might be better protected during flu season.
Importantly, we did not find significant differences between the studies that could affect our result, and there was no hint of publication bias. Consequently, we can confidently suggest that including vitamin D in our health strategies could enhance our defenses against the flu.

Vitamin D3 reduces flu incidence
Randomized trial of vitamin D supplementation to prevent seasonal influenza A in schoolchildren.
We carried out a study to investigate whether vitamin D3 supplements could help prevent seasonal influenza A in schoolchildren. Our approach involved a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial conducted from December 2008 to March 2009.
This ensured that neither the participants nor the researchers knew who was receiving the vitamin D3 or the placebo, making our findings more reliable. During the trial, we provided 1200 IU of vitamin D3 daily to one group while the other received a placebo.
The results were promising; we found that only 10.8% of the children taking vitamin D3 contracted influenza A, compared to 18.6% in the placebo group. This reduced incidence led us to a relative risk of 0.58, suggesting that vitamin D3 supplementation may lower the chances of getting the flu.
Interestingly, we noticed the most significant benefits among children who hadn’t been taking any other vitamin D supplements and those who began nursery school after age three. Additionally, in children with a past asthma diagnosis, vitamin D3 seemed to dramatically reduce asthma attacks.
Overall, our findings indicate that taking vitamin D3 in the winter could be beneficial for schoolchildren, especially for certain groups. We believe this study adds valuable insights into preventive health measures against influenza A.

Pts good! I consumed the entire pregnancy without contracting a cold. After a brief pause of a couple of weeks between cans, I experienced a cold sore.

SeaBuckWonders, Sea Buckthorn Oil: I wasn't even aware of Omega 7 before finding this product! Here in New Zealand, we are deep in winter and everywhere people are sharing their cold and flu bugs, not to mention various flu viruses! Yet, my household hasn't had even the slightest sniffle! I've also noticed a suppression of hunger and find I'm eating less. This is unusual for me, as like many, I typically carry an extra layer of fat for warmth in winter. Surprisingly, I've actually lost weight during this season! A fantastic product for protection, and I've even shed some pounds!

Magic tabletochki!!!! Two years ago, I changed my climate—moving from central Russia to the west. As a result, my immune system began to fail; I was unwell every month, suffering different colds and viruses. I tried echinacea, herbs, and wild rose from the pharmacy with no success. Then, I discovered these magical vitamins. I reduced the recommended dose and stretched a jar for 3 months, starting in January 2015. Since then, I have not been ill, only having a cold for two days. Despite a strong flu epidemic in our town this year, I didn’t even sneeze. I have not found anything better for my immune system. I highly recommend it!

This year at work, many fell ill, suffering from flu symptoms like fever and cough. However, I, being prone to illness, didn’t fall ill at all, despite constant contact with many people! What amazed me was that I didn’t need to take it constantly. As soon as I felt symptoms in the evening, I took two tablets with tea and went to bed early. The next morning I felt as good as new! The simple composition includes vitamin C, lysine, garlic, echinacea, and propolis—none of which has a strong odour. Even antibiotics didn't provide such results!

Camu Camu contains the highest vitamin C of any plant and has antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties that are popular for relieving cold and flu symptoms. I managed to avoid getting sick even during sudden weather changes, and I drink cocktails daily—this is undoubtedly the most delicious and pleasant treatment method.

FORMULA-1 for health. I will praise it for a long time! How many times have colds undermined your plans? The search for a safe way to maintain immunity led me here. I’ve often relied on Cycloferon before, but the Wellness Formula truly impressed me. I distributed all my Cycloferon this winter as it proved effective against the flu epidemic. None of my family or patients got sick while using it. It helps not just for respiratory issues but also for chronic fatigue and infections. It contains many natural components that are hard to identify as allergens, so starting with low dosages is wise. Despite its peculiar taste, the results are remarkable. Just be cautious with dosages—2-3 capsules daily should suffice, or more if needed!

Everything is functioning wonderfully. I want to thank this superb complex. After considerable stress, my hair was very weak, and my face was covered in acne. Despite visiting a dermatologist and trying various medications with no success, I discovered this vitamin complex online and opted to try it against my better judgement. Fortunately, after a brief period of use, my face cleared up and hair loss decreased. I took one tablet twice daily with meals for a month, and the results are significant. My face is flawless, and I've noticed new hair growth. I'm delighted and will continue to take it.

In September I fell ill with flu, and afterward, my hair began to fall out excessively, and my skin deteriorated. I bought vitamins which have really helped; I take one a day, although the instructions recommend three. After a month, I've noticed less hair loss and some new fluff growing, indicating new hairs. I haven't observed any results with my nails since I do gel polish, so it's hard to see the difference. I plan to take a break for a couple of months before ordering more. If it’s not a bother for you, I'm happy.

These supplements don’t require chewing like a tablet or sucking like a hard candy (which I often fear choking on); instead, they dissolve easily in my mouth within a minute.

Due to dysphagia, I can't swallow solid foods, so I rely on these for my daily intake of vitamin C, D, and Zinc, which keep my immune system strong against colds or flu. The price is reasonable, and they taste good enough for me to be consistent. I trust Nature Made products; they are cheaper than the unpleasant-tasting liquid forms my insurance offers.

I wish to provide an honest review of curcumin six months after starting it. I initially ordered this for my dad, who had severe varicose veins, and fortunately, he avoided surgery within a year. I began taking curcumin during COVID-19 to thin my blood, and after four months, I noticed painful heaviness in my legs. I’ve taken curcumin daily since then, and six months later, my blood is so thin that I struggled to stop bleeding from a minor cut. This shows the efficacy of the drug, as no additional blood thinners are necessary for treating COVID. I also give this to my 3-year-old who has a cold and flu, dividing the capsule and mixing it with honey and warm milk. My family solely relies on iHerb, and I believe curcumin is essential for anyone's Ayurvedic medicine cupboard during flu and cold seasons.

Initially, I had low expectations for this omega supplement, especially after experiencing hair loss and dry skin post-childbirth. Taking these capsules with enzymes has transformed my experience! The dryness, especially on my legs, had persisted all my life, yet after just three days of use, I stopped using creams as my skin became remarkably moist. Adding vitamin D and iron has also improved my hair growth, revitalising my desire to live and work. I am genuinely delighted with the results!

Improved migraine relief
Most Useful Review
GREAT It normalises sleep with regular intake of 2 capsules. It significantly improves my migraines; I take the pills as usual, and when special effects begin, I add extra magnesium and the migraine dissipates in a couple of hours. The frequency of migraines has decreased, but I also have drug support. With regular magnesium intake, PMS and periods are much easier, and I experience fewer emotional outbursts. Chronic pain in my nasopharynx is less problematic, though I cannot attribute this solely to magnesium, as I also take omega-3 and other supplements. This has the potential to be effective. No allergies or stomach problems occurred. The quality is excellent, with natural ingredients, and it definitely has a positive influence on health.

It works. I take this at the first sign of sniffles or a cough, and it cuts it right out. Be careful to take it on a full stomach, though, or it can burn. My husband takes one a day during cold and flu season as a preventive measure, but my doctor advised me to only take it when I feel a cold coming on, as it can affect the thyroid, which is worth noting for anyone with thyroid issues.

Evaluation after 30 days of use: I always use the product for 30 days to give an honest review. During these times of COVID and other respiratory illnesses, good supplementation is essential to help our bodies remain strong. Vitamin D3 is vital in this process of preparing the body to resist viruses. I did catch a slight flu, but I experienced no strong symptoms, all thanks to the vitamin D! NOW is an excellent brand with quality ingredients, small capsule size, ideal dosage, and a compact package. Vitamin D should be supplemented with Vitamin K2 (Mk-7) because K2 ensures calcium is allocated properly in our bodies. Therefore, I believe this product is an excellent purchase!

I have suffered from atopic dermatitis for years. Despite steroid creams, the itching and redness persisted. I then learned about Niacin Flash Free, which helps break down histamine, a trigger for atopic dermatitis. I feel slight itches occasionally, but they're manageable. After taking one tablet twice daily for about a month, my symptoms have markedly improved, leading to greater confidence in wearing black clothes. I believe Niacin Flash Free effectively reduces my atopic dermatitis symptoms.

Great! For ten years, my ALT and AST liver function levels were high, around 40 to 50, possibly due to drinking. After taking one capsule of Brocco Max daily for half a year, my recent health examination showed unexpected improvements. ALT decreased from 41 to 23, AST from 52 to 32, and γGT from 94 to 66. I also saw improvement in my fatty liver condition. Although I've tried various supplements like silymarin before, this is the first time I've noticed such significant effects. Despite my inability to stop drinking, I plan to continue taking this supplement for the foreseeable future.

Promotes bile health

Wonderful! I have been purchasing Taurine from this company for two years because I trust this renowned brand. I take this amino acid regularly, which helps maintain my blood pressure as I am hypertensive. I find taurine to be the most beneficial supplement for bile fluidity, preventing stone formation and fortifying retinal health! I take it each morning on an empty stomach half an hour before breakfast, which keeps my energy levels up throughout the day! The capsules are tasteless, colourless, and easy to swallow. The advantages of this amino acid are invaluable, especially for the elderly, as it combats free radicals, promotes rejuvenation, aids in dieting, and boosts energy! I will certainly repurchase Jarrow brand taurine, as its quality and composition are exceptional. I recommend this to anyone eager to maintain their health and avoid aging!

Most Useful Review
49 people found this helpful
I am consuming this for my husband and wife to conceive. Acetyl L-Carnitine is recommended by clinic practitioners as it reduces reactive oxygen species and safeguards eggs from oxidative damage, but it is rather pricey in Japan—three times the cost of this product. It is noted that acetyl L-carnitine is found in the testicular fluids and serves as an energy source for sperm, hence my husband started taking it. Thus far, egg collection is progressing well, and my husband's sperm motility is enhancing. Interestingly, though it wasn't the main goal, he seems to have lost 2 kg since he began taking it. Obesity can lead to infertility, so I'm pleased with this outcome. I hope my review proves beneficial.

Proper quality packaging with adequate quantity. I’ve felt the benefits, particularly with my immune system. The dosage per day is sufficient, and the product’s components plus size are as described. The taste is neutral, and it significantly aids the metabolism and energy levels, especially for those experiencing folic acid deficiency.

Most Useful Review
2 people found this helpful
One of the most popular essential oils worldwide, Now Foods Peppermint EM is essential in my collection. Its benefits include immunostimulating, expectorant, antiviral, antibacterial and analgesic properties. I utilise it for sinusitis, bronchitis, and flu. At the onset of cold or flu symptoms, I immediately use it in aromatherapy with tea tree oil, which aids mucus flow. It also freshens breath; I add a drop to my toothbrush. The oil's quality is excellent – natural, organic and certified for purity. I highly recommend it!

RECOMMEND!!! This herbal preparation is excellent. It helps combat fatigue, boosts concentration, and raises energy levels. I've found it particularly effective in recovering from long-term illnesses like flu and pneumonia, especially aiding those who find it hard to return to their normal rhythm due to prolonged fatigue. The combination of STANDARDISED GINKGO EXTRACT and GINSENG is exceptional; the dosage and price are unbeatable. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Ginkgo biloba extract positively impacts the circulatory and brain systems. It enhances blood circulation, supplying more nutrients and oxygen, which ensures full brain functioning and improves memory and thinking. Furthermore, it may reduce blood viscosity, making it more fluid.

Good day, purchasers! I ordered this collagen for my mother, who has serious knee issues with almost no joint fluid. While miracles are scarce, I remain hopeful! Thankfully, the pain has subsided a bit, making movement easier! I intend to buy more if it continues to help! I recommend this for early-stage arthrosis; the capsules are convenient and easy to swallow, even for the elderly. Best wishes for health!

Fantastic! After taking just three capsules, the pain in my shoulder, which had lasted over a year, has decreased significantly. After months of use, I’ve completely forgotten about the pain. I've also ordered it for my mum, who has knee pain and swelling. I will update later with results!

Skin improvement
Most Useful Review
With the rise of alcohol disinfection due to COVID-19, my hands became rough and my skin peeled, and even an ointment prescribed by the hospital did little to help. However, after using this cream, my skin was nearly cured. It has a soothing effect, and the moisturising sensation after application is excellent!
Immunity booster
Most Useful Review
Its quality is excellent, although the smell is bothersome, the taste is unpleasant, and the pill size is inconvenient. However, its ingredients are remarkable for strengthening immunity and reducing the incidence of colds, flu, and viruses. I encourage everyone to use it, particularly in winter and during the spread of the coronavirus, as it effectively alleviates symptom severity. This package should be in every home, with enough quantity for two months. During viral illness, take 2 tablets daily.

Avoided flu effectively
Most Useful Review

I have been taking one vitamin in the morning on an empty stomach for three months. I noticed the effects right away. The redness in my eyes has gone, and my hair has been falling out less. My menstrual cycle became more abundant and regular after stopping hormonal pills. Remarkably, when my husband fell ill, I managed to avoid the flu, indicating an antiviral effect, which is very encouraging! Lysine also aids in collagen production and helps maintain youthfulness. I plan to take a break before repeating the three-month course. The benefits of lysine for me have been tremendous; it exceeded my expectations.

I experimented with L-lysine while visiting a friend whose family was ill with viral infections like the flu. Another guest and I took two tablets of lysine daily, alongside grapefruit seed extract and zinc. We did not fall ill, even after close contact with them. A friend who received the same supplements recovered swiftly compared to her sick family. Now, lysine is a must-have in my supplement arsenal!

Effective against flu
Most Useful Review
6 people found this helpful
The mechanism of curcumin is akin to ibuprofen and diclofenac, possessing analgesic properties. It helped me overcome a cold in three days when suffering from ARVI with high fever. Curcumin alleviates symptoms of diarrhoea, constipation, and gastrointestinal pain. It can also be taken as a preventive measure against herpes and flu, making it an essential remedy during colds. Additionally, curcumin has the capability to inhibit the growth of cancer cells and aids with joint pain. A natural tonic!

Cold Calm has been my go-to for over 10 years! I don't leave home without it, as I never know when I'll need it! I take it at the first sign of cold or flu symptoms, and the sooner I take it, the faster those symptoms vanish—sometimes right after the first dose! I can genuinely say I haven’t had a cold or flu since I started using Cold Calm! I'm pleased to see that iHerb stocks it!

Excellent health benefits
Most Useful Review

Honestly, it's very, very excellent. I took it for reflux esophagus, as recommended by Dr. Berg and Karim Ali. After using it, I noticed my symptoms lessened, and the fatigue I was feeling vanished. The quality is excellent, with organic ingredients in plentiful supply for three months. The folic acid works well and responds nicely to the influx of niacin. The packaging is sealed, and the product's effects were noticeable from the first day. It's also crucial for the nervous system and metabolism, with a taste typical of B vitamins. It's excellent for anyone.

Erosion healing observed
Most Useful Review

During my husband's gastroscopy, three erosions and one ulcer were discovered in the duodenum. The doctor recommended this supplement, and he began taking it alongside aloe vera, vitamin A, and zinc. After two weeks, he had a follow-up gastroscopy and there was no trace of erosion; the ulcer had healed. Slippery elm is of excellent quality! I highly recommend it. It is also ideal for bile reflux into the esophagus, as it protects and heals the mucous membranes of the digestive tract when paired with a healthy diet.
Heals wounds

I recommend it for reflux esophagitis; I ordered it for my mother, who suffers from this condition. After acid emissions, wounds appear in the stomach and esophagus, and this product heals them well. I took two capsules three times a day; they are small and easy to swallow. When diluted with water, a jelly-like mucus forms that covers and heals the wounds. After a few days, I felt significant relief.

Niacin has completely cured my sleep disorder and depression. After taking sleeping pills for over a decade, I can now sleep easily anywhere. I continue taking niacin even though I feel much better and rarely experience niacin flush. It's best taken after meals to avoid worsening flush symptoms. With only 1-2 tablets daily, it lasts for months, making it excellent value for money. My skin also seems clearer.
