Additional <strong>Natural</strong> Immune Support<br />
V. Slama, that contains Echinamide with extracts of<br />
astragalus, reishi mushroom, lomatium and licorice<br />
root. In addition to enhancing immune function, these<br />
additional herbs all have demonstrated antiviral<br />
activity. In Canada, the product is called Anti-Viral<br />
Formula while in the US it is called “Anti-V”.<br />
Does a person’s mood or attitude affect immune function<br />
Our mood and attitude have a tremendous bearing on<br />
the function of our immune system. <strong>The</strong> bottom line is<br />
that when we are happy and optimistic, our immune<br />
system functions much better. Conversely, when we are<br />
depressed, our immune system tends to be depressed.<br />
When a person is under more stress or is depressed,<br />
they will need to make a conscious effort to boost their<br />
immune system—that includes taking their supplements.<br />
It is not only major life stresses that can cause<br />
depressed immune function, but the more significant<br />
the stressor the greater the impact on the immune<br />
system. Negative emotions suppress immune function<br />
while positive emotions enhance immune function. In<br />
my clinical practice, whenever a patient is suffering<br />
from low immune function I will ask them who their<br />
favorite comedian is and then write a prescription for<br />
them to watch a movie or TV show that features that<br />
comedian.<br />
