"Common Sense is not so common"

Voltaire

Philosopher

"AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION...

Is worth a pound of cure.” Today’s “pandemic greatly amplifies this statement’s importance concerning your health.” We cannot overemphasize how critical managing the care and maintenance of your body’s immune system is, as a defense for illnesses and viruses.

IMPORTANCE OF EARLY DETECTION

The best time to address the onset of any flu, cold, or a viral illness is EARLY. Normally your body will provide you with small signals, and if you are listening, or at best not ignoring them, they will most likely present in the following manner:

Sudden Fatigue (unexplained)
Runny Nose
Flem
Scratchy Throat
Fever
Cough
Congestion

Often, the early onset will begin with feeling tired for no valid reason, and possibly a slightly runny nose, which most of us would just attribute to allergies or lack of sleep. This is the best time to practice “PREVENTION”. So often we ignore those early signals, and only too late realize that your body was trying to warn you of a foreign invader trying to gain a foothold.

Flu FAQ’s (frequently asked questions)

RHMEDY™

RHMEDY™ is formulated to help maintain healthy, open breathing pathways, helping reduce the number of potentially pathologic or irritating substances, thereby assisting the immune system.

Using RHMEDY™ as soon as you feel ill should help maintain healthy, open breathing pathways, clearing out or diluting the number of potentially pathologic or irritating substances that may be trying to get a foothold throughout your breathing passageways and eventually bloodstream, thereby assisting the immune system by helping to reduce the burden placed on it during challenging times.

What Doctors are Saying

Amy Baxter, MD, says "NASAL irrigation may be the best way to treat positive Coronavirus Patients." - "In short, regular flushing of one's sinuses in the manner described above could be an effective way to keep the COVID-19 contagion from building up and entering your lungs and causing potentially fatal respiratory problems." - Article

"As I hope you will eventually experience, the treatment works for all acute viral infections, and especially well for flu viruses of any variety. In fact, although we are constantly conditioned to not believing anything quoted too good to be true," you will never have to worry about getting a cold or the flu again because you can cure on your own..." - Article

Important Information on Pathogens, Viruses, and Immune Support

Facts on H202

Irritants and Pathogens

Germs - Viruses - Bacteria

Irritants and Pathogens are EVERYWHERE! They can be filtered to a large degree but that requires wearing a mask. They can also be diluted and cleansed or removed, THAT IS...

...one of the main mechanisms of our proprietary formula, RHMEDY. Pathogens are not able to defend against Oxidative/Free-Radical damage nearly as well as healthy cells. Therefore, one strategy to keep pathogens in check is to increase oxidative damage.

Why H202?

CDC lists H202 as Microbicidal

"Reports ascribe good germicidal activity to hydrogen peroxide and attest to its bactericidal, virucidal, sporicidal, and fungicidal properties...

..Hydrogen peroxide is active against a wide range of microorganisms, including bacteria, yeasts, fungi, viruses, and spores. A 0.5% accelerated hydrogen peroxide demonstrated bactericidal and virucidal activity in 1 minute and mycobactericidal and fungicidal activity..."

Good Respiratory Hygiene

The World Health Organization recommends good respiratory hygiene of covering mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing...

Adding RHMEDY™ to your respiratory hygiene routine list may help reduce the risk of sinus infections and or the severity of Flu or Cold related illnesses by keeping the breathing pathways clear.

Influenza is an infection of the nose, throat, and lungs. It can cause serious health complications, especially for the elderly and young children.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a respiratory illness that can spread from person to person. Patients with COVID-19 have had mild to severe respiratory illness with symptoms of:

• Fever
• Cough
• Shortness of breath

Some patients have pneumonia in both lungs, multi-organ failure and in some cases death.

When an infected person coughs or sneezes and you inhale the droplets, and or when you touch a contaminated surface, then touch your nose, eyes or mouth. Direct contact with an infected person.

Cover a cough or sneeze with a tissue.
Wash hands often with soap and water.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth, especially when out in public.
Avoid close contact with those infected with a virus.
Follow CDC, WHO, and your local government guidelines and safe practices, including social distancing, stay at home orders and avoid public gatherings.
Practice good respiratory hygiene. Keep your breathing passages clear of microbes, germs, invading viruses, or pathogens by using RHMEDY™. Use with a Nasal Spray bottle, Sinus Rinse, Nebulizer or Humidifiers to deliver the microbicidal and anti-viral benefits of H202 infused RHMEDY™.

A pathogen is defined as an organism causing disease to its host, with the severity of the disease symptoms referred to as virulence. Pathogens are widely diverse and comprise viruses, bacteria as well as unicellular and multicellular eukaryotes. Every living organism is affected by pathogens, including bacteria, itself. Pathogens can cause a number of diseases that range in severity and how they’re transmitted.

While there are many different types of pathogens, here are the four most common types:

viruses
bacteria
fungi
parasites

From the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI): “Phagocytosis is an active process, in which the bound pathogen is first surrounded by the phagocyte membrane and then internalized in a membrane-bounded vesicle known as a phagosome, which becomes acidified. …The phagosome fuses with one or more lysosomes to generate a phagolysosome in which the lysosomal contents are released to destroy the pathogen.

Upon phagocytosis, macrophages and neutrophils also produce a variety of other toxic products that help kill the engulfed microorganism (Fig. 2.6). The most important of these are hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), the superoxide anion (O2–), and nitric oxide (NO), which are directly toxic to bacteria.” – NCBI Article

From the CDC: “Reports ascribe good germicidal activity to hydrogen peroxide and attest to its bactericidal, virucidal, sporicidal, and fungicidal properties… Hydrogen peroxide is active against a wide range of microorganisms, including bacteria, yeasts, fungi, viruses, and spores. A 0.5% accelerated hydrogen peroxide demonstrated bactericidal and virucidal activity in 1 minute and mycobactericidal and fungicidal activity in 5 minutes.” – Link to CDC
