Antivirals

Viral problems are common in children that are mercury toxic. Mercury messes up immune function and makes it difficult to control or clear viruses. We find most parents will have to do an antiviral protocol during the detox journey to help their child's body with this. 
These are a few common indicators your child's body might be struggling to control viruses.

• Routinely high B cells counts or low NK count, or irregular ratio of T-helper cells to T-suppressor cells on blood tests.
• Your child functions so much better when they have a fever.
• Your child has low muscle tone or motor problems (especially on one side of their body).
• You see a temporary improvement in function or behavior while taking antibiotics.

Some children have only one of these markers, while others have several, but in either case, you will find yourself faced with doing something about the viral overload situation. It is normal to want to deal with this right away, but your child will need to detox a bit first. It allows your child's immune function to improve, so when you do the antiviral protocol, it's going to work better. 
Some children may need ongoing antivirals sooner to control a current infection which is alright too. So if your child struggles with a chronic HSV infection helping their immune system is helpful. That is not the same as the antiviral protocol we refer to in the book to address a multitude of common viruses. 

Our new book has information on antivirals and immune support for these issues. We also provide a list of herbs that help with specific viruses or common viral infections. These tools will get your child's body and immune system back in shape.
