The last major anti-viral herb in this formula is the American Osha Root. This is heat clearing but accomplished with heat itself through sweating. I was cured of a terrible reoccurring viral pneumonia with this herb and it was in fact the healing from this herb that caused me to make the decision to become an herbalist.

It is noted in a few old medical books that many of the Arapaho Indians kept alive and well during the 1918 flu epidemic with the use of this herb and that they had cured quite a few white folks with it as well.

This is “viral defense” formula is a real life saving treasure for anyone’s medicine cabinet especially during a flu epidemic. It is also one example of a great alternative to any of the new “designer viruses” with their “accompanying vaccinations.”

Remember, this is not a “tonic” formula to boost the immune system and protect you from whatever may come your way. There are other great things for that such as Reishi Mushroom(Ganoderma lucidum) and Huangqi(Radix Astragali) extract.

“Viral defense” is not to be taken daily on a tonic basis but only during the first signs of infection, when visiting someone with a very contagious disease, or to use semi-long term (2-3 months a time) on a chronic infection. This is something to keep on hand to take at the first sign of a viral flu or illness coming on. It will almost always “knock it out” over-night if caught early. Also many people have had great success it with it against shingles, Hepatitis C, and such things as genital herpes and even a few extreme life threatening viruses. I have watched this formula completely cure the “Croup” in children and adults in 24 hours or less. This is indeed the perfect example of a very powerful extremely effective Chinese/Western herbal medicine.
