Next week we will
officially be in autumn! A perfect time to think about how our bodies
will cope with the onslaught of various flu’s, colds, and other viruses that
‘do the rounds’ in the winter and spring. How best do you prepare
yourself to keep you and your family as healthy as possible during this time?
It is not a mystery
why some people ‘catch’ the flu and others don’t - it is not random. It is quite simply that an individual’s
immune system is not strong enough to fight the invading organisms. So the answer is obviously to support and
strengthen the immune system all year round which applies to everyone not just
‘vulnerable’ people.
Many factors result in
lower immunity: poor diet, poor assimilation of nutrients, stressful lifestyle,
a lack of quality sleep, emotional imbalance and pollution and of course being
exposed to viruses and bacteria.
Natural remedies are the best way to improve your immune system and
there are numerous natural and herbal remedies available on the market but,
whilst herbs are very effective, they can also be dangerous if not administered
by a qualified practitioner. As an example
Echinacea was taken off the market in Germany four years ago so that its safety
parameters could be determined as it had been recognised that, whilst it was
effective in some cases, it could be too stimulating to others which might lead
to a lowering of the immune system. More
recently there has been advice not to administer Echinacea to children.
To address the
challenge of finding a natural product which was effective and safe with the
highest quality ingredients, Laboratoires
Bioligo created a perfect complex many years ago which included their
unique catalytic oligo-elements (trace elements) for the immune system, plus
high quality, organic green propolis which is anti-viral and anti-bacterial
targeting the debilitating symptoms of sore throats, colds coughs and
congestion. A perfect combination to
strengthen the immune system, not only to fight the disease, but to ensure that
the immune system is not left depleted after an episode of infection which can
result in fatigue and a vulnerability to further infections.
In clinical trials* undertaken in
1994 in Switzerland, over a period of six months two groups of children (one
placebo group) within the age range of
1-5 years who had suffered at least 4 episodes of ENT infection in the previous
year, were given a preventative dose of Bioligo’s Sirop du Pere Michel. The results
were:
· The
number of cases of infectious episodes:-
Sirop du
Pere Michel – 51 Placebo – 144
· The
number of infectious cases requiring supplementary treatment:-
Sirop du Pere Michel – 6(11,77%) Placebo – 188 (66.67%)
*The significant results from these trials are more impressive
considering that each child received exactly the same
dose. Oligotherapy usually administers a
dose which is tailored to the background condition of the individual. Therefore there is a possibility that the
therapeutic dose required for some children involved should have been greater
to achieve optimal results.
The choice of products
in the Sirop range makes it
convenient to take in any circumstances.

Sirop du Pere Michel - a remedy
that is valuable in every home
Without trace elements in their correct catalytic
form, cells cannot function correctly.
Blockages are created in cells because of many external and internal
factors; catalytic trace elements remove the blockage and enable the cell to
assimilate other nutrients. It doesn’t
matter what remedies you take - supplements, vitamins, homeopathy - if the
catalytic trace elements are not present in the cells then these substances
cannot be absorbed. Unhealthy cells
leads to unhealthy tissues and organs which eventually leads to disease.
