dont know if this is true but it cant hurt and you dont have to poison yourself.



The
following advice, given by Dr. Oz, makes a lot of sense and is important
for all to know:


The only portals of
entry are the nostrils and mouth/throat. In a global epidemic of this
nature, it's almost impossible to avoid coming into contact with H1N1 in
spite of all precautions. Contact with H1N1 is not so much of a problem
as proliferation is.


While
you are still healthy and not showing any symptoms of H1N1 infection, in
order to prevent proliferation, aggravation of symptoms and development
of secondary infections, some very simple steps, not fully highlighted
in most official communications, can be practiced (instead of focusing
on how to stock N95 or Tamiflu):


1.
Frequent hand-washing (well highlighted in all official communications).


2.
"Hands-off-the-face" approach. Resist all temptations to touch any part
of face (unless you want to eat or bathe.)


3. *Gargle twice
a day with warm salt water (use Listerine or Hydrogen Peroxide if you
don't trust salt). *H1N1 takes 2-3 days after initial infection in
the throat/ nasal cavity to proliferate and show characteristic
symptoms. Simple gargling prevents proliferation. In a way, gargling
with salt water has the same effect on a healthy individual that Tamiflu
has on an infected one. Don't underestimate this simple, inexpensive and
powerful preventative method.


4.
Similar to 3 above, *clean your nostrils at least once every day with
warm salt water, or hydrogen peroxide. *Not everybody may be good at
Jala Neti or Sutra Neti (very good Yoga asanas to clean nasal cavities),
but *blowing the nose softly once a day and swabbing both nostrils with
cotton buds dipped in warm salt water is very effective in bringing down
viral population.*



5.
*Boost your natural immunity with foods that are rich in Vitamin C (Amla
and other citrus fruits). *If you have to supplement with Vitamin C
tablets, make sure that it also has Zinc to boost absorption.


6.
*Drink as much of warm liquids (tea, coffee, etc) as you can. *Drinking
warm liquids has the same effect as gargling, but in the reverse
direction. They wash off proliferating viruses from the throat into the
stomach where they cannot survive, proliferate or do any
harm.
