Artemisia annua: is widely used to combat malaria, a disease that leads to millions of deaths per year, largely in sub-Saharan Africa. It appears to recognize heme, the oxysgen-binding structure embedded in hemooglobin or red blood cells, a principle target of malaria parasites. The peroxide enables artemisin to alkylate heme and thus interfere with its role in supporting parasites within such cells.

Several simpler, syntehtic artemisin-based knockoffs are being evaluated as alternative to the natural product, including drugs being developed by Ranbaxy Laboratories Limited (http://www.ranbaxy.com/index.html).

Bacteria: Bacteria can be good or bad depending on your perspective! Yogurt is very good bacteria. Somne strains, like Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus reuteri have been shown to prevent colds and improve the immuen response as well as shorten sick time. Enjoy plain,k organic low or non-fat yogurt with omega-3-rich ground flax see with fresh or forzen fruit for even more nutrition.

Berberine: a five-membered ring alkaloid is extracted from the roots of a variety of plants, including golden seal, Oregon grape and tree turmeric. It has deomonstrable activity against Giardia lamblia, a paraside that causes diarrhea.

Betafectin (PGG-Glucan): has reported animicrobial against S. aureus.

Cathelicidin: is a natural antimicrobial which targets microbes such as bacteria, firuses and funci. It kills pathogens by punching holes in the external membrane of a microbe. It is produed by white blood cells and  has been shown to increase it.

Cranberries and blueberries are flavonoids that have demonstrated antibacterial proerties, especially in the urinary tract. Cranberry juice has been particularly effective at preventing E. coli bacteria form adhering to the urinary tract’s endothelial wall and inhibit adhesion of H pylori in the gastric wall, a precursor of gastric ulcer.

Dear Antler Velvet: is believed to be very beneficial for recovery for sports injuries and the like. 

Echinacea: also known as the American coneflower or purple coneflower, has long been used by native North Americans for its resistance booting properties and wound-healing benefits. Consumption of Echinacea at the first sign of symptoms has been clinically shown to reduce both the severity and duration of cold and flu. Species are used as herbal immunomodulators world-wide. They are a popular herbal remedy reported beneficial for fighting the common cold. However, a recent report in the New England Journal of Medicine casts doubt on whether it really has an beneficial effect against the common cold.

Elderberry: has reported benefits against several cold and flu symptoms. Elderberry tea is effective in releiving coughs, treating sinus condgetion, and reducing the pain and swelling of a sore throat. It is rich in vitamins A and C.

F. religiosa (pipal): is a large glabrous evergreen tree that belongs to the family Moraceae and is widely distributed in the tropical area of the world. The bark of F. religiosa shows antitumor and antimicrobial activites and helps in the treatment of asthma, diarrhea, gonorrhea, ulcers, scabies, hiccups and vomiting. (Kumari, J. Agric. Food Chem. 2010, 58, 8027-8034).

Fish: such as salmon and tuna are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and can lower inflammation levels which can contribute to colds and flu.

Honey: Antibacterial properties of honey have been well documented; several compounds are found in honey that considerably contribue to its antibacterial activity, such as hydrogen peroxide, methylglyoxal, leptosin, melanoidins, oxidative stress and hydroxyl radicals. The sheer number of these compounds suggests that honey works thorugh a multimodal mechanisms of action. (Brudzynski, WO 2015/164981). 

Garlic: is reported benefits for colds, flue, ear infections and mucous reduction. It may be taken with conventional antibiotics. It is good for coughs and bronchitis. Garlic contains .Garlic as been useful against numerous strains of Staphylococcus epidermis and oral gacteria, including Streptococcus mutans and P. gingivalis, which it can kill on contact.

 Ginsan: Ginsan is a soluble acidic polysaccharide extracted from the roots of Panax Ginseng C. A. Meyer. It has reported benefits for resistence to infection. It has also reportedly been beneficial for mental efficiency.Three primary species of ginseng exist for therapeutic consumption: Panax ginseng (Asian ginseng), Panax notogeinsegn and Panax quinquefolius (American ginseng).

Numbers of S. aureus found in the spleens and kindyes of mice treated with ginsan prior to infection were lower than those detemined in control mice infected only with the bacteria. As to possible mechanisms for the increased bacterial activity after ginsan treatment, ginsan increased the phagocytic activity of BALB/c a mouse-originated macrophage like cell line against infection with S. aureus. Expression of TLRs, including TLR2, TLR4, and TLR9 was, to the contrary, reduced in peritoneal macrophages that were treated with ginsan before subsequent contact sith S. aureus Inflammatory cytokines like IL-12 were also downregulated at an early pahse of sepsis in mice that were treated with ginsan before the bacterial challenge. Also reduced by ginsan treatment was expression of phospho-JNK1/2, phospho-p38 MAPK, and NF-kB.

Glucans: 1, 3/1, 6 glucans can enhance white blood cell activity. All types of mushrooms are good sources.

Goldenseal: has reported antibacterial properties and benefit against the cold and flu. It has also been reported beneficial in fighting sinus and lung congestion, sore throats, swollen lymph nodes and fever.

Hyssop: has reported benefits for respiartory infections, bronchitis and lung condtions.

K3: The compound K3 purified from Japanese pagoda tree flower has been found to have various in vitro anti-HIV effects against various strains (laboratory strain, drug-resistant strain and clinical isolate strain). The mechanism of action inhibition of cell entry as well as RT activity. The anti-viral activity was measured by syncytium reduction and p24 antigen reduction.

Lactoferrin (LF): is a cationic metal binding glycoprotein that is presetn in high concentration in milk and other exocrine secretion such as tears and cervical mucus. Plasma LF, considered to be netrophil derived and normally ver low, can increase several times during bacterial infections and in the presence of tumors.

LF is believed to play a role in host defense and in iron metabolism.

St John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum): has reported antiseptic properties. Extracts from this plant have also been used to treat mild to severe depression. A novel protein p27SJ, present in a laboratory callus culture of Hypericum perforatum reportedly suppressed transcription of HIV-1 in several human cell types including primary culture of microglia and astrocytes.

Licorice: reportedly reduces throat irritations, lung congestion and inhibits various viruses such as SARS and Epstein-Barr viruses.

Oregano which is a common culinary herb has been reported to be effective in the treatment of, and prophylactic use for parasitic infections. See US Patent No. 5,955,086 The effective chemical in oregano for its anti-bacterial effects appears to be the chemical compound carvacrol.

Selenium: Fish and seafood, expecially tuna, osyters and swodfish are a great source of this important nutrient. Chicekn, Brazil nuts and whole grains are other sources. Selecnium is a potent antioxidant and has been implicated with an improved immuen response.

Vitamen C: It is well known that Vitamin C is important for the immune response. Fresh fruits such as oranges kiwi, and organic berriesare good sources. Supplements are only recommended if you get early symptoms of the flu.

Proanthocyanidin and proanthocyanidin polymers: are found as colorless phenolic substances in a wide variety of many platns, particularly those with a sood habit of groth (e.g., the Croton species). They have been reported to be neneficial for treating respiratory virus infections (US 5,211,944).

Vitamin D3 is known to have a potentiating effect for macropahge mycobactericidal activity.

Vitamin E: A daily Vitamin E supplement of 200 IU may halp prevent colds among the elderly living in nursing homes. Nuts are a rich source of Vitamin E.

Zinc: Zinc is reportedly necessary for a properly functioning immune system. Under a Zinc deficiency, immune functions change from a Th1 cell-based predominantly cellular response to a Th2 based, predominantly humoral repsonse as a result of which various diseases follow a less favourable course. Under Th2, levels of IL-4, IL-6, Il-10 and prostaglandin Ew (GE2) are raised while levels of Il-2, Zn++, NO and other molecules are lowered. This makes it easier for viruses like HIV to multiply. The Th2 cytokine IL-4 in fact increases the number of CSCR4 and BLTR co-receptors, as a result of which, under Th2, the HIV strains that infect immune cells are best able to accelarate the AIDS disease process.

Zinc deficieny has also been reported to promote cancer. Under the influence of Th1 cells, zinc inhibits the growth of tumours by activating the endogenous tumour suppressor endostatin, which inhibits angiogenesis.

Good soruces of zinc is meat.

Tea:  have been shown to have in vitro antimicrobilal effects on the influenza virus, Vibrio cholerae, Staphylococcus aureus, Campylobacter jejuni, C. coli and others. In addition tea polyphenols have an in vitro inhibitory effect on C. trachomatis and C. pneumoniae.

Cough and Decongestants:

Dextromethorphan: is a common ingredient in over the counter cough medicines to stop cough. Large doses can cause highs and hallucinations. 

Pseudoephedrine: is a docongestant in many non-prescription cold medicines. While it helps to clear a stiffy nose it also contains the illegal ingredient methaphetamine (“meth”).

Foods for Coughing:

–Anise seeds have antibacterial properties and also shown to eas ecoughing.

–Fennel: can help clear chest congestion and sooth a persistent cough. One can drink tea made from fennel seeds (Yogi Tea’s throat confort).

–Honey: is believed to be effective for many ailments/diseases. Many mix it with cinnamen powder and apply it on bread for breakfast rather then jelly/jam. One tablespoon honey mixed with half a tablespoon cinamen powder is believed effective against arthritis. One tabelspoon lukewarm honey with 1/4 spoon cinamen powder for 3 days may help relieve cough associated with colds.

Preservatives

Sodium benzoate (salt of benzoic acid): is the sodium salt of benzoic acid, widely used as a food preservative and pickling agent. The mchanism starts with the adsorption of benzoic acid into the cell. If the intracellular pH falls to 5 or lower, the anaerobic fermentation of glucose through phosphofructokinase decreases sharply, which inhibits the growth and survival of microorganisms that cause food spoilage. many foods are natural sources of benzoic acids, its salts (such as sodium benzoate) and its esters. Fruits and vegetables can be rich sources, particuarly berrys such as cranberry and bilberry. Other sources include seafood such as prawns and dairy products.
