Traditional medicine doesn’t offer medicine to stop a virus it usually just has to run his course.

Here are a couple of supplements that work well to get rid of a virus.

Anti-V Formula

This herbal formula contains the following concentrated extracts:

• EchinamideT – a patented, clinically proven, super-extracted Echinacea purpurea liquid that guarantees high levels of the three key active groups of compounds responsible for echinacea’s actions on the immune system.
• Astragalus (Astragalus membranaceus) – the most famous herb in Chinese medicine for strengthening the immune system that is now backed by scientific evidence.
• Lomatium (Lomatium dissectum) – this herb garnered attention during the Spanish influenza in 1917, after it was discovered that Native Americans were recovering from this flu much quicker than everyone else.
• Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) – referred to in Chinese medical texts as ‘the mushroom of immortality,’ reishi is valued by modern herbalist for its ability to promote resistance during times of stress.
• Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra) – a valued, time-tested herb noted in recent scientific investigations for its anti-viral properties.

The dosage recommendation for immune support during acute viral infections is to take 50 drops in water or two capsules every two to three hours. For long-term support or prevention the recommendation dosage is to take 50 drops or one two capsules two times a day or as directed by your health practitioner.

Virastop

Virastop contains the highest available potency of an exclusive blend of proteases to assist the body in purification. Protease can break down undigested protein, cellular debris and assist in the break down of toxins in the blood, sparing the immune system this task. The immune system can then concentrate its full action on the invasion.*

Component Benefits: Oral proteases taken on an empty stomach have been shown to be absorbed and carried into the blood stream where they are bound to Alpha II (Alpha-II-macroglobulin). Recent research has indicated that oral proteases bound to the Alpha II

break down (digest) protein pathogens in the blood. This includes, but is not limited to viruses, fungal forms (such as candida), bacteria and parasites.*

Viruses are cell parasites consisting of nucleic acids covered by a protein film. The introduction of oral proteases, presents the ability of those enzymes to act upon the protein coating of the viruses. Enzymes can also break down undigested food protein, cellular debris, and toxins in the blood, sparing the immune system this task. The immune system can then concentrate its full action on the viral, bacterial, fungal, or parasitic invasion.*

For the above reasons Virastop is a unique product. It is not an “immune stimulator”, rather an “immune balancer.” It contains a blend of eight proteases, which has the potential of becoming part of the immune system when taken on an empty stomach.*

Suggested Use: For maintenance – 1 capsule, twice a day, 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal (empty stomach). For therapeutic purposes Virastop should be taken 3-4 times per day. More capsules may be added as needed.

Zymactive

From Natural Factors provides high potency proteolytic enzymes (or proteases) including the pancreatic proteases chymotrypsin and trypsin, pancreatin, bromelain (pineapple enzyme), papain (papaya enzyme), and peptizyme SP or Serratia peptidase (the “silk worm” enzyme). Preparations of proteolytic enzymes have been shown to be useful in RA and other inflammatory conditions.

Suggested Use: For maintenance – 1 capsule, twice a day, 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal (empty stomach).
