does it stink? i have super human smell powers, i might not be able to handle it. my mother in law used to make this thing called fire water if you were sick, it had onions and garlic and vinegar and more. it was rank, i never deemed myself sick enough to need it, but apparently it works.

Onions and garlic definetly are good boosts for the immune system. I also think lots of Vitamin D is good too.

I call the Dr's every other day to see if they've got more vaccine in yet. And seriously, we pray as a family to be saved from the flu. So far it's worked like a charm.

Well now, I think I might be in trouble with that remedy because even the smell of onions makes me violently ill. However, onions and garlic (which is from the onion family) are natural antibiotic remedies, so there may be something to it! As for the flu, almost everyone I talk to has either had it or knows someone who has, (including your brother, his wife and kids, our back yard neighbours, the girl in the office next to me, etc.), and they have all told me it was just a fairly mild case of the flu, no big deal, nothing too serious, a couple of days off work and that was it. So I am just doing my normal hand washing, getting lots of rest, stuff like that. The statistics here in N.S. are interesting - so far 3 people have died from the flu and 3 people have died from the flu shot. So at this point it looks like you have a 50/50 chance either way. Also lots of reports of adverse reactions to the flu shot, so it's hard to know what to do.

I'm hand-washing freak and have made my kids the same, lol! so far we have been good but I'm not oppose to new or rather old methods. I went to my naturopath yesterday and she tested me for the h1n1 and received a clean bill of health. I hope it stays away from you too.
