CarolynN Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 I just wanted to share this but these products saved our vacation to Disneyland last week. We surprised our children with a trip to Disneyland and I am not joking within minutes of telling them we were leaving Daniel started getting that glassy look in his eyes and needed to lay on the couch. The respiratory flu has been going around like crazy in his school. I knew it was a matter of time. I just had hoped it would be after we got back. Well we managed to get to Disneyland area and he seemed to be doing well. But the next day it all turned around he had a high fever and just kept asking me over and over if he could go to Disneyland. I ended up going to a place called "Henry's" in California which has a vitamin department. I spoke with a woman that was soooo helpful. She told me to give him a product called "Oscilloccinum" which helps alleviate flu symptoms and also a product called "Blockade" that helps fight viruses in the body. You can give both these products to adults and children. The long and short of it the next day he was able to go to Disneyland with no fever and very little coughing. I used Germ-X on him like mad because I did not want him passing this along to anyone and I also made sure he coughed into tissues. But he really did do an amazing turnaround in just a short time. I gave the product to everyone in our family. The other two came down with it but not nearly as bad as Daniel did the first day. It was short lived. I started getting a cough and it just basically passed me by. I just wanted to share this with everyone because the respiratory flu is really bad in Arizona. We are then number 1 state in the country for it. I am sure it is heading other directions. I just thought it might help someone else like it helped us. The only draw back to these products is they are $$$$$$$$. I spent about $100 for enough product for our entire family to take over the week. However, it saved our trip and that was worth the money. I hope this is Ok I posted this. I really thought about it because I know we are not suppose to promote products but I thought with as bad as the flu is this year it might well really help someone especially those with young children. Chemar, if it is not Ok to post please feel free to delete this. Again, I just thought these products might help another family like it helped ours. Carolyn N.

Chemar Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 that is fine to talk about Carolyn and soooo glad your Disney trip was saved the only commercial discussions we try to prevent here are by people who join simply to sell stuff or post affiliated links for which they get click thru commissions etc but active members sharing info on products or treatments etc is more than ok...it is welcomed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovedogs Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Hey Carolyn, we used to have Henry's here in AZ but they closed all 5 of them down. I loved shopping there. I wanted to add that Sprouts has a supplement that has saved us from severe colds and flus, it's called congesteeze and has licorice root, ginger, oregano oil, echinacea, garlic bulb, etc. My dh(who has severe allergies and asthma) swears it has helped him get over colds quickly. I keep the oscillococcinum around just in case I need it. I've heard you can take it as a prophylactic if you know you've been exposed and I've read on another forum that you can take it for colds and other respiratory illnesses. Unfortunately, we all know that what works for one person may not work for another but it's nice to know that people can find healing in some of these alternative products!

CarolynN Posted February 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Thank you for the other suggestion for colds. I love getting products that truly help my family. I know that you can purchase the "Blockade", which by the way is Elderberry Extract, and also the "Oscillococcinum" at Sprouts. I am sure they carry it in many different vitamin type shops or order over the internet. One other product we have used with great success for colds is "Umcka". It helps get rid of coughs faster. It does not stop the cough from happening. It just helps in the healing process. Carolyn N. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
