Vitamin C to strengthen the immune system
Vitamin C and calcium are essential to prevent any allergies or viral disease affecting the respiratory system. As newspapers have reported so far, swine fever mainly affects young healthy adults, is persons between 25 and 45, and not children and the elderly as commonly occurs.
What happens is that children and the elderly are more protected than the rest of the population. The national vaccination schedules require children and elderly to get vaccinated against influenza at least once a year, whereas the population from age 11 to 65 leaves out this kind of protection.
We are also talking about the people who work, and stress lower immunity, the same as not eating well. The problem with this or any other type of virus is not treatable with antibiotics, as in the case of bacterial infection.
Antiviral medication should be applied also within the first 48 hours of symptoms to be effective, otherwise the lung damage may be one that is irreparable.
In fact, the people who have had complicated the picture viral, specifically swine fever die from a “Sirpa” or respiratory distress syndrome in adults.
In reaching this state, 7 out of 10 people die, sometimes not on a respirator is achieved the patient move forward.
And is that not all who come into contact with the virus develop the disease. Nor die every developing the disease. The immunoglobulins are designated to provide warning signal when the body comes into contact with a virus, are also those that provide the mechanism for defending the body cells of the foreign agent, to be killed, but to do this must be strong in quality and quantity, and that can only be achieved with intake of co factors such as vitamin C and calcium, they help the formation of these cells.
The influenza vaccines are another good option for protection of respiratory viruses and young adults should be vaccinated against it each year.
These vaccines change every year, for example, which came out in 2008 was the greatest challenge virus occurred in 2007 and this year is that more diseases occurred in 2008. Of course, swine fever is not included in the vaccine more recently.
When asked whether it is worth being concerned at this time, when almost speak of a pandemic, experts agree that more than that, it is protected with simple but effective measures, such as intake of these supplements.
That’s to cover his mouth with his elbow when you sneeze or cough is not entirely effective, producing only about a microscopic secretions that can infect those who are around, and wash your hands all the time, but certainly worth it, can fail in a second if for example we welcome someone who has the virus and then we took her hand to her mouth.
