I have had two separate occasions since Fe. 2020, where I have suffered &amp;nbsp;from &amp;nbsp;diarrhea. I thought it was because I ate Parsley. Also, all of a sudden a genital herpy virus , which has been dormant for 30 years, has suddenly reared its blisters. Ouch!&lt;/p&gt;

From the &amp;quot;information&amp;quot; that I&amp;#39;ve gleaned so far, this virus seems to be behaving differently than previous viruses. Never forget that we are living in a world of lies and deception!&lt;/p&gt;

Worse than any other flu I had ever had. I was never tested, but highly suspect I had H1N1. I had never felt so helpless from flu. It was the weakness and nausea, not the vomiting. I could barely move and forced myself to stagger as far as my medicinal shelf. I grabbed a vial of Oscillicoccinum and a wristwatch. I propped myself upright in bed and took 5 pellets every 15 minutes. Symptoms gradually decreased. I continued this for several hours and then took a few extra doses after most symptoms had ceased. I was weak and &amp;quot;wiped out&amp;quot;, but nothing worse after symptoms broke. I just needed rest for a while, so I slept. Once symptoms broke, I reduce pellets to 3x/day for several days. I also fasted for the next 2 days, only taking water. I feel this step is very important... not eating right away. By then, I was feeling quite well and resumed eating lightly. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nowadays, I never catch anything going around anymore. I used to be sick constantly. I attribute this to supplementing with vitamins D3/K2, zinc, magnesium, vitamin C. These are all part of my daily regimen. I also use nano-collodal silver at the first sign of infection of any sort. It has been years--so long since I have had a sick day that I cannot recall. Usually, all I need to fix me up, even after a prolonged period of long days and hard work is a morning of sleeping in, a hot shower and a cold beer. BTW, esp. in winter, I will drink a dark beer. I make an excellent home-brew. If I buy beer, it is a high number (90+), double-hopped, craft brew, known for anti-inflammatory properties. Prob other virtues as well. Hops may have a purpose, but there may be other health benefits for home brewers substituting more traditional herbs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Beer was once given as a tonic, anti-inflammatory, muscle-relaxant and sedative to women after childbirth--the hops prob also induced milk flow. This was not insipid commercial beer, but heady home-brew and traditional beer&lt;/p&gt;
