When the Swine flu scare was on, one of the things that were periodically being reported were alternative cures for the infection.
Yet the nay sayers were disputing that alternative therapies were any use for fighting off swine flu and similar infections.
The fact is that with its emphasis on holistic healing rather than symptomatic cure, alternative medicine, can help to strengthen the immune system.
By shoring up the body’s defenses to disease and infection, the incidence of infection and disease it significantly reduced:
Acupuncture is a highly personalized therapy specific to each individual. It can help in strengthening the immune system and help the body rid itself of pathogens. This has been seen to be effective in treating symptoms of flu and cold as well.
Meditation: Simply put, meditation relieves stress and the control of stress is extremely beneficial for health and immunity.
Naturopathy is really mostly about common sense: observe proper flu prevention hygiene, eat more fresh produce and whole grain, less processed food, get enough rest and a variety of natural substances to support the immune system.
Homeopathy works by using very small dosages of medicine to stimulate the body’s ability to heal itself.

Homeopathy – How Does It Work?
The current agitation against Homeopathic Medicines in Britain does lead us to ask the question Does homeopathy work? How, if at all does it work? Protesters have called homeopathic treatments “scientifically absurd” and have asked for withdrawal of the treatments as the BBC reported.
The protestors have dismissed homeopathy as nothing more than a placebo.
So what is homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a system of treatment that supports the body’s own healing mechanism. Homeopathy bases itself on the principle of “like cures like”. A homeopathic remedy is an extremely pure, natural substance that is administered in a very diluted form.
In large quantities these substances would cause the same symptoms the patient is trying to cure. In small, pure, diluted doses, it is not only safe and free from side effects, but it will trigger the body to heal itself and that is the basis of homeopathy.
Well one may believe in homeopathy or not, but it is our considered view that it is unreasonable to demand that others stop using homeopathy. Certainly there is enough reason to believe in its efficacy; enough people have benefitted from it. Even if there is no benefit, there is no side effect either; so is there any reason to condemn homeopathy? We think not!
