Water Miracles Cure - Flu

Doctor’s instructions when you have the flu are usually to drink plenty of fluids. Instead of orange juice or tea, drink water to help your cells withstand the flu virus. While orange juice, tea, and hot lemon drinks may be comforting, they do not provide the significant benefit of water in aiding the immune system to fight off viral infection. If your flu symptoms persist, or are severe, consult your doctor or seek medical attention as you would normally. Some types of influenza, particularly those with the effect of pulmonary edema, are too severe to be treated at home with just water. Being fully hydrated helps the body stay healthy and fight normal diseases but it alone is not sufficient when there is a major assault on your immune system. Use common sense and seek medical attention for any condition that causes you concern.
