“There were times when everybody in the house has the flu. You're cleaning up vomit and it's 2 in the morning, and you're wishing there was somebody else there to help you.”
– Meg Tilly –
It's been a bad season for flu.
Or, maybe more accurately, good for the flu, bad for you.
Many I know have been calling in sick to work. Church pews have been sparsely populated. Two out of six of the members of our weekly church fellowship group were absent last night, and three of the four present had recently recovered from the flu.
Just this morning I was reading an article by Dr. Keith Scott-Mumby in which he cautions readers to resist pharmaceutical proponents' propaganda, pushing palliative pills and promulgating pretentious preventive vaccines for your flu-ey ills. Whew! That was a mouthful! ;)
Down and Out with the Flu

ABC News, in a recent propaganda piece,
reported that this year's flu vaccine is only 10% effective. You can read and/or view their report here:
Only ten percent effective? Say what?
Dr. Scott-Mumby ridicules, I think justifiably so, media pressure to take a flu shot that is admittedly only 10% effective. You can read his article here:
He goes on to point out that, even in a good year, flu shots are only 40 to 60 percent effective, and those statistics are questionable. He also warns against the use of Tamiflu, a highly promoted drug that may reduce flu symptoms in some users, but by only less than a day. And at what cost? The possibility of severe side effects.
Many, including myself, are wary of vaccines.
Flu-Ban, A.K.A. d-Lenolate® Plus Cold and Flu

In my not-so-humble opinion, the obvious risks of vaccination far outweigh any supposed benefits. Our own Steemian author, @tremendospercy, wrote about these issues six months ago, recommending that we all do our own due-diligence before allowing ourselves or our children to be poked:
- A 'Big Pharma' con job?"
So then, What are we to do about the flu?
Happily, I have a couple of very effective recommendations for you.
Get yourself and your family some Flu-Ban, also known as d-Lenolate® Plus Cold and Flu. These all-natural tablets, primarily based on olive leaf extract, are a brilliant product of East Park Research.
Our son came across this remedy about ten years ago, and I'm here to tell you that it has been a God-send. We always keep several bottles of Flu-Ban at hand, and take a bottle or two with us when we travel. If anyone in the family is stricken with flu, or even feels the onset of symptoms, we start them on Flu-Ban immediately.
Why Flu-Ban?
Because it works! In the past, I've been laid up with flu for many days, sometimes a week at a time. If you've ever had a bad case of the flu, you know that there are times when things are so bad, you might even wish that you'd die, just to escape the pain.
A few years back, the flu struck me without warning. I suddenly found myself projectile vomiting, experiencing severe stomach cramps and pain. I went home and immediately started taking Flu-Ban. Within less than a day, the pain was gone and I was on the way to a full recovery.
I know you're constantly bombarded with information, but I think it will be well worth your while to watch this short video by the manufacturer, explaining how and why Flu-Ban is so effective.
Flu-Ban, A.K.A. d-Lenolate® Plus Cold and Flu
Please know that I'm not a representative of East Park Research and that I have no financial interest in Flu-Ban or any of their other products. I am just an extremely satisfied, life-long customer. And, knowing the pain of the flu, I want to see all my Steemian friends and neighbors benefit from Flu-Ban as well.
Will you take my personal recommendation?
Don't get a flu shot, with its very questionable, 10% to 60% effectiveness and all its associated risks. Get something that works instead. Get Flu-Ban.
Now I'll make one more recommendation.
This is something that I do have a personal interest in, because I invented it, I fabricate it, and I market it.
If you listened to the East Park Research video above, you know that keeping your immune system in tip-top shape is essential to good health. Our product, the SILVERengines proton, enables you to make one of nature's finest antimicrobials at home for a very low cost. The proton makes colloidal silver by diffusing silver ions into distilled water. It does this under microprocessor control in a fully-automated, "set it and forget it" process.
You can read all about it at our website, http://SILVERengines.com, and you can also access a special offer by clicking on our banner ad below. Colloidal silver can be purchased ready made, for example from Amazon, but if you have a SILVERengines proton you can make your own at a far lower cost.
NOTE: We will accept Steem in payment for a proton - just contact me to arrange an exchange.
The SILVERengines proton Colloidal Silver Maker
How should you use colloidal silver?
If you consume a small amount of colloidal silver on a daily basis, the silver ions in your body will take a load off of your immune system, helping you to maintain a greater resistance against colds and flus and making you less susceptible to them. Silver has many other benefits, and is safer and more effective than most pharmaceutical antibiotics. It is one of the few antibiotics with a track record of curing MRSA infections.
There you have it, friends.
Beat the flu this season, and in the future, with Flu-Ban and colloidal silver.

You are why I'm here on Steemit!
I have very eclectic interests and hope, over time, to write about them all.
UPVOTED AND RESTEEMED! Anyone who knows me has seen the devastating effects of toxic flu shots. Thankfully I am climbing out of the severe side effects caused by a mandatory flu shot thanks to the blessing of colloidal silver. There are not enough words to express the difference it has made in my health. I highly recommend The SILVERengines proton Colloidal Silver Maker every home should have one!

Sorry, I'm not aware of other recommendations other than very general ones (such as you'll find at the end of Dr. Scott-Mumby's article.
However, it should be possible for you to make colloidal silver anywhere that you can buy or make distilled water.

Thanks for the info! My mom is a retired nurse and a real 'pill pusher'. She's always asking me if I got a flu shot because she's afraid I'm going to get sick and pass it on to Brian. I try to tell her I'd rather stick with my Vitamin C and other natural supplements instead of injecting poison into my veins :) She of course can never understand me when I speak of hypercritical Big Pharma...I remember her always bringing home "these great samples" of different pills from the Dr's office she worked at; she was always so pleased at the "free stuff" !! ...like leading sheep to a cliff!

Deep, deep sigh... :O
I find it distressing that so many people have what amounts to blind faith in doctors, drug companies, and the government. While perhaps the typical doctor is well meaning, they are essentially trained to diagnose disease by rote and then apply whatever band-aid is the latest profit center for Big Pharma... :(

Many times people underestimate the flu, we do not give it the true importance it requires.
In my country we are in summer, in these times we are plagued by other diseases, now the neighboring countries like Brazil and Paraguay are having yellow fever epidemic, this worries us a lot to the Argentines because of the proximity, the worst thing is that here the vaccines to avoid contagion.
I really appreciate that you shared this post and your experience in the subject

Thank you my friend, for your visit, and for the news from your part of the world.
Those diseases you mention, such as yellow fever, are caused by virus pathogens and spread by mosquitoes. The colloidal silver is an effective weapon against the viruses.
I hope you and your family may stay healthy, my friend!

Never heard of Flu-Ban, but I'm certainly going searching for it now. My wife and I argue about getting flu shots for the ids every year (me against, her for) and if Flu-Ban works as you say it will put an end to that yearly battle. I'll be looking up colloidal silver and its benefits too...I've heard of it in the past, but never really did my research.

Thanks for the feedback. Once you try Flu-Ban, it will be your "go-to" solution for the flu!
Regarding colloidal silver, please feel free to ask any questions. You will find a LOT of disinformation out there on the internet, and anti-silver propaganda from the government.
If you start from our website (http://SILVERengines.com) you should be alright... We have some articles there addressing the propaganda. There are also links to a lot of research papers and articles.

I'm sorry to hear that...
Can you not order such things from the U.S.?
Colloidal silver is an ideal way to get billions of silver atoms dispersed throughout your body where they can do the most good. There are many delivery methods (follow that link) including using a nebulizer to get the silver into your bloodstream via your lungs. Please do read all about it at http://SILVERengines.com.
If you can get pure (.999 fine) silver and distilled water, you should be able to make your own. Just don't add anything to the water... no salt or other minerals.
Regarding Flu-Ban, perhaps you could compound a reasonable substitute if you can get the ingredients? Here's a photo of the label on the jar. Unfortunately, the exact proportions are unknown, but you may be able to find dosage suggestions for the individual ingredients?
If you listen to the video from East Park Research, you'll find that you can probably get much relief if you just chew on leaves from olive trees.

This is VERY worthwhile post my friend. I wish I could keep it someway for when I need it. I stopped taking the flu shot 15 years ago and have been better because of not taking it. This year praise God I have not gotten sick at all. I know silver is good. The olive extract is new to me as it the flu remedy. Again a VERY phenomenal post @creatr. Perhaps you could start selling these products. I could be interested.

I will never get a flu shot. I really don't trust the medical world for vaccines which is controlled by corporations and the government. I met someone recently who had MRSA and said colloidal silver cured her. My daughter got a non-dangerous form of staff infection and this lady kept saying I need to try colloidal silver but I wouldn't try it on a 1 year old. It sounds interesting though. When I have the flu or serious sicknesses alka-seltzer plus is my miracle cure...usually clears me up in a few days.

It should be a big clue that the government has managed to pass laws exempting pharmaceutical companies from lawsuits based on vaccination. You'd think that would tell people something...
I have at least three customers who have beaten back MRSA infections using colloidal silver. I use it personally, give it to my children and grandchildren and pets. It is absolutely non-toxic, and extremely hard—perhaps impossible—to overdose on. Are you aware that they used to, as a matter of course, put silver drops in newborn infants' eyes?
Alka-seltzer is a great comfort medicine... so is Vick's vapo-rub... :D

Does wearing silver chains, bracelets, earrings or other similar things have a positive effect on the body @creatr? Since I am not from the U.S. I probably won't be able to buy Flu-Ban that easily, so I am interested in the alternative ways of boosting the immune system using silver.
I would greatly appreciate if you check out my blog and my content. I hope that you will find it interesting.

Flu is so bad disease..
So flu is caused by a virus, antibiotics cannot help, unless the flu has led to another illness caused by bacteria. Antivirals, such as oseltamivir (Tamiflu) and zanamivir (Relenza), may be prescribed in some circumstances.
So beware or this disease..
Nice post sir...

If you follow the links in my article, and read the article by Dr. Scott-Mumby, you will find that Tamiflu has many severe and dangerous side effects, and very little benefit. It has caused some people far more trouble than it is worth.
So beware of those drugs..
They are worse than the flu.
Also, please know that colloidal silver, in addition to being an antibiotic, is also an effective anti-viral. You can find research papers about that here:

Ugh. Can't even begin to say how this season is keeping me in bed with more body pains than usual. People tend to self-medicate and when they don't, they jump to the big stuff immediately. Virus are self-limiting. They have a definite timeline and the only thing one can do is to lighten the symptoms which downright sucks. I'm not sure if the Tamiflu is available in my country as I don't really have that as my go to nor do I plan it to be. But all we can do I suppose is to keep our immune system in shape and have preventive measures in place. I'm on the border when it comes to vaccines as I can't have all anyway seeing as I have an autoimmune disorder. Flu vaccines change yearly as the strains also change per season. Bad stuff about viruses is they evolve fast -.- which brings us back to "Good for the flu, bad for you." Ugh. Sucks sucks sucks.

Hello, @tariqulislam,
I wish you good luck on Steemit. More than that, here is a little advice:
It is not a good idea to ask for votes and follows. You should visit writers that you are interested in, and learn about their work. Then if they are interested in your work, they might vote for and follow you without you asking.
Good luck.
