herbal supplementsSeveral of the people I know have had the H1N1 virus already, including many of my relatives. However nobody that lives in my house has had the H1N1 virus, and nor have my parents. Perhaps we will all come down with the H1N1 virus this winter, but I am hoping we can avoid it. I think the reason why none of us has caught the H1N1 virus is that we all take vitamins and herbal supplements on a daily basis. I really do think that vitamins and herbal supplements do a great deal to keep the immune system healthy. An immune system that is strong and healthy because of vitamins and herbal supplements is better able to fight of cold and flu viruses. I would like to think that this is the reason why nobody in my home has caught the H1N1 virus yet. I will continue taking my vitamins and herbal supplements each and every day. Childhood asthma left me with weak lungs and a simple flu virus can make me very ill, never mind H1N1. Therefore it is imperative that I use vitamins and herbal supplements to protect myself.
