Big ah-HA:

You can rarely get enough Vitamin D from eating or drinking stuff.

Did you know? We actually produce vitamin D ourselves — mainly through a process starting with sun exposure. Yes, sunlight.

Here’s what you can do today to prevent Swine Flu infection:

  1. Expose yourself to the sun for about 30-50 minutes per day on average — revealing as much of the skin as possible.
  2. Add olive leaf extract into your foods.
  3. Add fresh, organic food into your child’s meals — creatively emphasize dark green leafy vegetables.

NOTE: Even though Vitamin D can’t be reliably obtained from food, fresh dark green leafy veggies DO strengthen your child’s immune system. Olive leaf extract is one of the five best anti-viral remedies that occur naturally and it’s easy to access.

NOTE: When in the sun, do not use sun block! Most do more harm than good and block needed UVB rays that are are essential for the body to create Vitamin D. Stay tuned for more on this subject.

We’re all trying to keep kids healthy. But many docs are overlooking natural remedies — and I’ll return to this loaded statement later this week.

I wish it was as simple as saying, “go get some Vitamin D”. Don’t let anyone tell you it’s as easy as a pill or chewable doo-dad. Mis-information about ABSORPTION of vitamins into our bodies is everywhere.

I’m also speaking out at YouTube today -- discussing a “big picture” means to prevent h1n1 flu naturally with vitamins and superfoods. What do you think?
