Swine-Flu: cures and preventions now and in my post four years ago
Note: I am not an MD this is not intended to replace consultation with an MD
During April-May of 2005, I had a bad cold that would not go away for weeks. I did not realize it then but it seems I may have had the flu.
Back in May 2005 (http://davidvirgil.blogspot.com/2005/05/is-tequila-cured-influenza-rooted-in.html ) I wrote about how I cured this 'bad cold' (today I changed just one world in the 2005 post aside from that it has remained as it was when I first posted it).
IN the post I describe how I estimated that the 'bad cold', which was something I had never experienced before, originated in Mexico because it coincided with me being exposed to Hispanic-type immigrants I had been only slightly exposed to in the past, and because the thing that cured it was Agave-based Mezcal from Mexico.
Now, four years later, we have the return of these "bad colds" in the "swine-flu" that has broken out in Mexico and is infecting persons in the US and elsewhere.
This latest "swine flu", is a new combination of four different strains of flu of the human, bird, and swine types. It's swine flu component is an offspring of the famous 'Spanish Flu' of 1918 that killed tens of millions of persons all over the world.
There are various possibilities for the origin of this new 2009 swine flu: it could have been purposely or accidentally planted in Mexico by a non-Mexican from some other part of the world; it may have been developed in a lab by a malicious party; it may be indigenous to Mexico.
Of so-to-speak the 2009-swine-flu's four 'grandparents', only one is the 'grandparent' related to the 1918 'Spanish Flu', regarding which nobody claims it originated in Mexico.
The reality may be that this latest 2009 'swine-flu' originated in Mexico; even if it did not, it could be that for various reasons, Mexico is a location that to an unusual extent promoted the animal to animal and animal to human transmission of flu, and also enabled the processes that change a given flu virus into a different and more dangerous flu virus.
Looking at the history of man and flu in Mexico, apparently, contrary to politically-correct-dogma, flu existed in Mexico before the arrival of Christopher Columbus and the white men in the 15th century.
The flu virus is considered to be rooted in waterfowl, and one of the main sources of protein for the indigenous inhabitants of the Mexico area, prior to the arrival of Columbus and the white men, was ducks. Even today, Mexico is one of the world's leaders in terms of duck domestication.
The pre-Columbus Mexico civilization featured large populations and high population density both of which contributed to the flu danger.
The people of the civilization of the Mexico area prior to the arrival of Columbus, surprisingly in contradiction of PC myth, did not have, due to supposed lack of exposure to the flu, immune systems that were less capable of dealing with the flu compared to the white man.
Despite the flu danger, the Mexico area prior to the white man, was a prospering, populous civilization. This indicates the inhabitants of the area must have had access to something that allowed them to conquer the flu.
Four years ago I estimated (http://davidvirgil.blogspot.com/2005/05/is-tequila-cured-influenza-rooted-in.html ) that one of things that the pre-white-man and post-white-man Mexico-area people have had that has allowed them to conquer the flu, is the Agave plant, which is contained in Tequila/Mezcal.
The agave plant has antiviral properties. Tequila/Mezcal was used by Mexican doctors to treat victims of the Spanish Flu of 1918 (http://www.zonalatina.com:80/Zldata263.htm ) (http://www.tequilaexperts.com/tequilahistory/ ). The Agave plant traditionally has been a mainstay of indigenous medicine.
Looking at the other possibilities, that the 2009 'swine flu' was man-made, or introduced into Mexico from outside of Mexico: if the flu was man-made, the Dr. Frankenstein who created it worked with already existing influenzas to create it; and if it was not man-made but introduced from outside of Mexico, again it is related to these same flus that have existed outside of Mexico.
If such is the case: what is the root of these flus that originated outside of Mexico? Were there cultures that showed that they could conquer these flus? How did the cultures that conquered the flus conquer them?
The most believable thesis (I now estimate) re the origin of flus originating outside of Mexico, is that they originated in China.
Chinese workers built the trenches used by the allies in WWI, prior to the transmission of the flu by troops of WWI that characterized the famous 'Spanish Flu'.
Traditionally in China people have lived side by side with pigs, chickens and ducks all under one roof. China has for a long time had some of the highest population densities in the world.
Even today, the world's leader by far, in terms of domestication of ducks (ducks are a waterfowl), is China. A type of duck, the Pekin Duck, originated in China. In Chinese restaurants a major item is "Duck Sauce".
So then how have the Chinese historically dealt with the flu? They must have been competent in dealing with the flu despite all the factors that rendered them especially susceptible to flu epidemics.
Apparently there exist (http://articles.directorym.co.uk/Symptoms_of_Colds_and_Flu-a872280.html ) very effective Chinese Traditional medicine formulas for the prevention and cure of colds/flus:
Yin Qiao San formula (oral consumption)
Lonicera Flower Forsythia
Mentha
Schizonepeta
Dan
Soja
Arctium
Platycodon
Lophatherum
Licorice
Phragmites
Liu Zheng's Formula (orally consumed){
Schizonepeta
Siler
Bupleurum
Pueraria
Lonicera Flower
Forsythia
Isatis Leaf
Gypsum
Apricot Seed
Belamcanda
Oriental Wormwood
Licorice
Jade Screen (orally consumed & external massage):
Huang Qi
Bai Zhu
Fang Feng
Wang Zhen's formula (external massage):
Cinnamon Twig
Peony
Ginger
Licorice
Jujube
Zhao's formula (inhaled):
Mentha
Scallion
Chrysanthemum
Schizonepeta
Atractylodes
Cinnamon
Truestar Anistree
Magnolia
Wild Ginger
The big players in these Chinese formulas are (name of ingredient used in more than one formula, number of formulas in which gredient used): Schizonepeta, 3; Licorice, 3; Mentha, 2; Cinnamon, 2; Ginger, 2.
Subtances such as Agave and the Chinese herbs can escape attention for various reasons. Society can forget about them; fads such as modern science can render them disreputable; only a fraction of society might know about them to begin with; not all persons are able to afford them.
Nevertheless, such substances could perhaps provide a basis for the cure and prevention of influenzas, especially when combined with modern techniques of concentration and isolation of active components of substances.

Thank you. I get so much about swine flu from your blog and i appreciate that you have positive attitude on Chinese traditional medcine. I noticed that you did research about swine flu four years ago and you introduce Chinese formula for swine flu cures and preventions effectively. You are an expert about Chinese medicine.
I am Chinese guy living in Shanghai and nice to see you.
It could not be better if you can write back to me.
