Just coming to say that Master Tonic (if you can tolerate its tremendously strong taste) will kill about anything except stomach bugs.

(sticky is around here somewhere - I can look for the link if anyone needs it.

And several doses of oscillococconicum for the whole family when the flu seems to be hitting seems to clear it up within 12 hours if you start fast enough.
The right homeopathic remedies (combination or classical).

So far, we've stayed healthy and only gotten a few very minor very quick colds this year

Most have lasted less than 6 hours (i.e. we woke up sick and by bedtime were better

). I was the only one who actually was ill a full 24 hours so far this season!!

Daily immune building supplements/super foods we take
*greens
*CLO (everyone but 3yo takes this)
*calcium
*vit C
*aloe vera juice
*chlorophyl/papaya
*essiac tea (everyone but 3yo takes this)
*probiotic or naturally fermented foods (preferably naturally fermented foods, probiotic is only as needed

)

3yo doesn't take things because we can't get her to keep it down and I am just glad we get all that other stuff in her as texture/flavor sensitive as she is
