(ContentDesk) November 7, 2005 -- No one would blame you for being skeptical about our preparedness for the coming flu season. The recent disaster surrounding Hurricane Katrina has called our ability to deal with any natural disaster into question. With the bird flu (Avian Influenza) infecting people and scientists waiting nervously for signs of the next major flu pandemic there is a lot of panic spreading. A Southeastern Pennsylvania doctor says he has the answer in the form of an all natural flu fighter that reduces flu symptoms and shortens the course of the disease. Dr.
Dave Woynarowski, MD, a Board certified Internist and Anti-aging doctor says, We have been quietly making a product called Immune Booster for over a year now. The main ingredient is a highly concentrated, purified Elderberry extract. It comes from Austria and Italy and we have the exclusive distribution rights on the raw materials. When asked what role it plays in fighting the flu he says, "It's amazing.
Elderberry extract was found to be effective against every strain of flu in the subject population. The other key thing is the subjects were real people, not just lab rats or viruses in a dish." How does it work?"It appears that it may actually coat the virus and prevent it from spreading.
It reduces the symptoms of flu and I feel if you are taking this product on a regular basis you may never even get the flu.Flu virus, especially bird flu, also known as Avian Influenza, can mutate very quickly.
The virus you get the shot for is based on what was happening in China earlier this year. By the time the flu gets here it may be a very different virus and you may not be protected.Immune Booster's proposed mechanism eliminates this problem.What if you do get the flu?Most flu infections have symptoms for 7 to 10 days or longer. If you take the leading prescription drug for the flu you will get 5 pills that cost around $130 and reduce your symptoms by an unimpressive 1.4 day average. Plus, you only have 48 hours to get to the doctor and wait in an office full of sick people to get your prescription.
After 48 hours, this medicine wont help you. Now let's say you got Immune Booster and waited until you got the flu to take it. According to Dr. Dave, In the studies Elderberry extract cleaned up most people's symptoms by day four. As you can see this is far better.He also points out that unlike Echinacea which still remains popular even though study after study has found it to be worthless, Elderberry extract has stood the test of scientific study.
What about Bird flu? "Immune Booster should have the same effect on bird flu as other influenza viruses.There is a lot of panic about bird flu, or Avian Influenza, because it has already developed resistance to the standard prescription drugs. Dr. Dave reminds us that the real worth of the flu shot and other flu medicines can only be determined after the flu season is over. Many times standard therapies (shots and pills) are proven marginally effective, especially for the very young and very old.What about taking it if you have had a flu shot?I dont see any reason it wouldnt work with the shot or other anti-flu medicines, but there are no studies. I think the best way is to get on Immune Booster and stay on it year round or at least for the duration of the flu season.Are there any problems associated with Immune Booster? Not unless you are allergic to Elderberries! When asked if the product had any other uses, Dr.
Dave replied that he uses it year round as a general immune booster and that its mechanism of action should apply to almost any viral infection. This includes anything from the common cold to the AIDS virus! Based on current trends the demand will far outstrip the supply much like the problem with flu fighting drugs and flu shots.For more information on Immune Booster, flu, flu symptoms and Anti-aging medicine, Dr David Woynarowski has a free site at www.drdavesbest.com..

(ContentDesk) October 12, 2005 -- The family of Mr. Pedro Sosa, State of Texas, death row inmate #000778, says that the state has taken his children, family, and now they want to take his life on October 25th, 2005 at 6:00 pm.Earlier execution dates were set in 1987, 1993, and 1999, but each time Pedro S. Sosa was successful in obtaining a stay of execution. At the moment, Pedro Sosa, his attorney, Cynthia Orr, and his family await a Federal Supreme Courtstay of execution. After this, they are all hoping for a new trial, that without a doubt will prove his innocence.

All former appeals for a new hearing were all denied by the State of Texas.The family had tried various media channels, in order that they may raise public awareness regarding Mr. Sosa's execution, but were somewhat unsuccessful.
That was why the launching of this website was important.

What Do We Tell Our Children?
What Do We Tell Our Children?orLittle Pitchers Have Big EarsIn the last few days, be it on a TV interview, a call in program, at a meeting or a consultation, people ask variations of the following questions. "What do we tell our children about the bombing? Shall we keep it a secret? Shall we wait with the little ones until they ask? After all they don't know the difference, anyway." They say. "At what age can they comprehend what has happened? Won't it scare them to talk to them?"Adults often forget that children have ears. They make the mistake of believing that if a child isn't told about an event, he or she won't know what you don't want him or her to know. Remember your own youth.
Didn't you learn almost everything your parents didn't want you to? Children pick up secrets like sponges. And, if you don't tell them your version, they will fill in the blanks with mixed-up stories of their own.Very young children don't know the difference between reality and fantasy. One burning...
