There is a flu epidemic in Massachusetts right now and my whole family got it except me. I took a homeopathic flu remedy when my kids and husband were sick.
It's called Oscillococcinum and it's available at CVS, Walgreens ect.. It comes in tubes and you use a third or a half of a tube a few times a week during flu season or during an outbreak at home or work and when you get the flu you take it a few times a day till you feel better.
Thanks Nicole, me too. I haven't been feeling well anyway and the last thing I needed was the flu. Plus I had to nurse 3 people. It takes days and days to get rid of the exhaustion after the worst part of the flu is over.

Glad you found a way to avoid it! I will have to keep this in mind. It is scarey that it is so this year. Thanks for the info!
I am so glad you mentioned Vit D. None of us get enough of it from the sun during the winter and anyone that lives above the Mason Dixon line can't get enough from the sun. I always take it a few times a week but when they were sick I took it every day. I also gave it to them when they felt like they could take it. It's so important for your immune system.

Yay for dodging the bullet! That and enough Vit D will help so much!
