The best way to beat the flu is wear gloves and stay home when the weather spikes and more people are out. March is a nasty month for sh*t being spread.

wash your hands, wash your hands, wash your hands, and don't touch your face

I cannot believe the number of people that touch their cell phones, or a microwave in a staff room and then pick their food up with their hands...ew.

And if people were smart enough to stay home when sick...

I don't disagree with what you say, but back in the day we used to do those things. Either our immune systems are getting weaker or the bugs are getting tougher-:)

Diet.

First maybe the definition of "sick" has to be redefined.
Pay attention to how you feel and know the early symptoms.

One of the best things for monitoring your health is to keep track of your pH.

I find people are much better at staying home now than they used to be. I remember going to work when I was so sick that I could barely function...the boss expected it, really was non-negotiable. And I never thought anything of it, unless I was throwing up, I went to work. But now there is social pressure to stay home and people are quite vocal about it.

I am vocal when someone is hacking all over the place, I will tell them; please don't use my phone, stay away from me. I disinfect everything they touch in the office and I don't touch what they have placed on my desk without disinfecting afterward.

I think we live in closer quarters meaning our population is larger and we are more aware of illness than we used to be. And people live longer. Plus bacteria and viruses that we thought had gone to ground are resurfacing such as various flu strains.

But I think the big one is, our diets suck with all of the processed food and people are for the most part way too heavy and way too sedentary. I eat way too much crap and I am well within my weight parameters and try to make healthy choices but I treat myself a lot. Way more than the one chocolate bar per week or one dirty meal per week. People fool themselves. It compromises our immune systems. We pay the price.

You just inspired an idea for a fun poll.

Interesting...

I've never met a cancer survivor that would do chemo again. Not even my one nut wonder business partner.

Study accidentally exposes chemotherapy as fraud - tumors grow faster after chemo!

Another industry to big to fail.
The article says, "chemotherapy does not actually treat or cure cancer at all, according to the study's findings, but rather fuels the growth and spread of cancer cells".

It's technically wrong. "US experts said chemo causes wound-healing cells around tumours to make a protein that helps the cancer resist treatment". BBC News - Chemo 'undermines itself' through rogue response

I don't think I would go as far as to say that chemo does not work.

Well that's good, because surprise surprise, NaturalNews makes it all up. The authors never said that chemo doesn't work. They said a substantial barrier to reducing morbidity is acquired resistance to cancer treatments. That's well known. What they found was a mechanism by which prostate cancer cells can adapt inside the environment around them when certain types of chemotherapies are used. In fact what this investigation has found is a new mechanism that could lead to better therapies. Nobody thinks chemotherapy is a great cancer therapy, that's why the pipelines of all the Pharmaceuticals include lots of molecules in the Oncology sector.

The fable that there is no money in cancer treatments is rubbish. The FDA approved 39 drugs for market in 2012, and 11 of them are new cancer therapies. They include kinase inhibitors (not a chemotherapy) that block the enzyme action of targeted cancer cells, and drugs like Perjeta that are indicated for use before a patient has received chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer.

It's pure nonsense that Pharma only wants chemotherapies and drugs to fight the symptoms of chemotherapy. Finding this out would mean people have to actually look at reality instead of accepting these idiotic falsehoods as obvious truths.

There's many big pharma companies all chasing to have a treatment for disease X first. If you get the molecule that treats the disease before your competitors, then you make money that your competitor does not. That's what Drug companies exist for, to make money.

Then why do we not see anything from them regarding ph balance? Cancer can only grow in an acidic environment. It can't exist in an aerobic or ph balanced environment. Most of the cures I posted cannot be patented that is why they get poo pooed by the medical profession.

If I get cancer I'll be turning off the internet and paying close attention to what my Doctor advises. My Sis Inlaw had breast cancer and underwent Chemo-therapy and I'm happy to say she is still with us today. part of that reason wasn't from drinking Dandelion Tea or swearing off medical approved treatment, but following the advice of experts who deal with this stuff daily/

I worked with a guy who had cancer and chemotheraphy about 17 years ago and far as I know he`s still alive.

Because that whole topic of cancer cells having lower pH than surrounding cells is bull $hit. As for those natural news quacks who push this as an alternative therapy, there have been plenty of cases of adverse reactions from people taking large amounts of alkali materials orally. It only gets more dubious from there if you want to examine the pharmacokinetics and efficacy of any treatment based on altering the pH in a cancer cell that supposedly is already modulating the pH...

As far as I know there is no one in the world who has all the answers regarding cancer, but for my money if, God forbid, I happen to get it, I think I'd take my chances with an oncologist
