[size=12]The formulations and herbs used in Swine flu prevention Programme have been researched by Shree Baidyanath Research Institute and have been spread all over through Herbalage Anti-Aging Network through its unique Direct2Consumer system. They are a blend of well-researched natural immunomodulators known to support and boost the immune system, fight flu infections, help heal injuries resulting from infections and control other conditions that lay the foundation for Swine flu and other diseases.

These immunomodulatory herbs in Ayurvedic terminology are called rasayanas (rejuvenating) i.e. they maintain the balance between all the doshas (humors) and also clarify all the srotas (body channels) through which nutrients are supplied. Due to proper functioning of srotas (body channels), doshas (humors) remain in their proper amount i.e. the samavastha (balanced condition) ultimately resulting in a balanced Immunity.

4. Keep hydrated
Drink 8 to10 glasses of water each day to flush toxins from your system and maintain good moisture and mucous production in your sinuses.

5. Keep away from sick people
Flu virus spreads when particles dispersed into the air through a cough or sneeze reaches someone else’s nose. So if you have to be around someone who is sick, try to stay a few feet away from them and especially, avoid physical contact.

Avoid close contact with people who are sick
People who are sick with an influenza-like illness should stay home and keep away from others as much as possible; including avoiding travel, for at least 24 hours after fever is gone except to get medical care or for other necessities. (Fever should be gone without the use of fever-reducing medicine). Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing or sneezing

[size=12]In Ayurveda, health ailments like swine flu are because of weakened immunity that the body cannot withstand against the attack of disease causing germs. Ayurveda, as always, believes in strengthening the body systems that fight and win the battle against H1N1 Virus. This is done by prescribing various immunomodulatory herbs such as Aswagandha (Withania somnifera), Pippali (Piper longum) ,Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus) , Sunthi (Zingiber officinale) , Vidarikand (Pueraria tuberosa), Bhallatak (Semecarpus anacardum), Guduchi and Tulasi (Holy Basil). They also act as antiviral and antibacterial too.

The new swine flu virus is highly contagious, that is it spreads from person to person. The virus is spread through the droplets that come out of the nose or mouth when someone coughs or sneezes. If someone coughs or sneezes and they do not cover it, those droplets can spread about one metre (3ft). If you are very nearby you might breathe them in.

Or, if someone coughs or sneezes into their hand, those droplets and the virus within them are easily transferred to surfaces that the person touches, such as door handles, hand rails, telephones and keyboards. If you touch these surfaces and touch your face, the virus can enter your system, and you can become infected.

[size=12]This virus was originally referred to as “swine flu” because laboratory testing showed that many of the genes in this new virus were very similar to influenza viruses that normally occur in pigs (swine) in North America. But further study has shown that this new virus is very different from what normally circulates in North American pigs. It has two genes from flu viruses that normally circulate in pigs in Europe and Asia and bird (avian) genes and human genes. Scientists call this a "quadruple reassortant" virus.[/size]

[size=12]Novel H1N1 (referred to as “swine flu” early on) is a new influenza virus causing illness in people. This new virus was first detected in people in the United States in April 2009. This virus is spreading from person-to-person worldwide, probably in much the same way that regular seasonal influenza viruses spread. On June 11, 2009, the World Health Organization (WHO) signaled that a pandemic of novel H1N1 flu was underway.[/size]]]> http://happyhealthforum.com/posts/preList/34/1644.page http://happyhealthforum.com/posts/preList/34/1644.page GMT
