Why Ebola spreads and what can be done to protect your body against it or any other virus

Whether conventional medicine is unaware or just doesn’t want to admit that they don’t know how to cure Ebola, let alone any virus, remains a matter of debate. Blood plasma has proven to be just as ineffective at treating the virus as vaccines. The only definite way to eradicate Ebola is to strengthen the body’s immune system.

Modern medicine claims that man-made remedies like vaccines are better than those provided by nature, but it doesn’t take a genius to recognize that a cocktail of toxic chemicals and preservatives pumped into the body with antigens is not an effective way to improve immunity. Even effective vaccines – which are few and far between – do significantly more harm to individuals who would have never contracted the given infection in the first place.

The benefits of vitamin C

Among the ways to boost immunity naturally, vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is arguably the most potent and effective way to access a viral infection. The foremost reason vitamin C annihilates viruses, or sets them on a path for destruction by the immune system, is by activating the Fenton reaction. The reactions begins inside the virus and the cells by which the virus replicates.(1)

This reaction is ultimately stimulated by the presence of vitamin C, one or more transition metal cations and the production of hydroxyl radicals. These radicals are the most reactive oxidizing agents known to man. By upregulating oxidative stress, the radicals destroy everything in their immediate vicinity.(1)

The actual evidence that demonstrates the immune boosting powers of vitamin C is available for anyone to see and review. This antioxidant can reverse and potentially cure any viral syndrome if the secondary organ damage is not too far advanced.

Thus far, not a single virus has been tested that is not destroyed by large enough doses of vitamin C. Many other antioxidants have shown to have a similar effect, but vitamin C appears to be the most potent. Its simple chemical structure enables it to travel throughout the body with little restriction.

Poor nutrition enables Ebola to propagate

But why is Ebola so prevalent? From an empirical standpoint, the disease spreads most effectively in populations that have a significantly worse nutritional status than in the United States and other well-fed countries. Of course, any exposure to a high enough virus concentration can enable an infection to spread, even among well-nourished individuals.

Consequently, if an Ebola outbreak occurs in your region, it is important to consume a lot of immune strengthening foods, herbs and nutrients such as:

  • Liver-supporting herbs (milk thistle, dandelion root, yellow dock root, burdock root, artichoke, turmeric)
  • Vitamin C (camu camu, acerola cherry, guava, peppers, kale, strawberries, oranges)
  • Vitamin D (sunlight and/or fermented cod liver oil)
  • Zinc (supplement or pumpkin seeds)
  • Probiotics (supplement or consider sauerkraut, coconut kefir, apple cider vinegar, and kombucha)(2)

The highlighted foods, herbs and nutrients can be consumed in whole food, capsules and tinctures, and will provide your immune system with ample benefits.

But you can’t reap the benefits of these foods, herbs and nutrients if you are consuming foods and engaging in behaviors that suppress your immune system including:

  • Sugar (especially refined)
  • Alcohol
  • Dairy
  • Corn, soy and wheat (gluten)
  • Hydrogenated foods
  • Excess animal protein
  • Excess flour intake
  • Highly processed foods
  • Chronic stress
  • Excessive EMF exposure
  • Limited sunshine or vitamin D supplementation(2)(3)

Improving in all these areas is a sure means to boosting your immune system and energy, both of which will help your body protect itself against Ebola, as well as any virus or bacteria. As always, consult your qualified herbal practitioner or naturopath to determine which herbs and solutions are right for you.
