Strong Immune System Beats Ebola Virus
Some people infected with the usually deadly Ebola virus show no symptoms of the illness at all, researchers have confirmed, most likely because of a rapid immune response controls the virus in these people.
The Ebola virus, which often kills 70% or more of those infected, and causes severe symptoms; patients quickly develop high fever, aches, fatigue and may vomit blood or have bloody diarrhea. It is widely believed that people only contract Ebola if they come in contact with blood or secretions from an infected person. Most victims die within 5 to 7 days.
Researchers studied 11 people with symptomless Ebola infections and found that all of them had antibodies to the virus in their blood. Seven of the 11 were also found to have genetic material from the Ebola virus in their blood, according to a highly sensitive gene amplification technique called PCR.
Until now it was thought that symptomless Ebola infections were possible but it had not been proven. Scientists have known, for instance, that the illness can be mild in some people. This study shows not only that symptomless Ebola occurs, but also that it is likely due to a particularly strong immune response.

COMMENT: If a strong immune system can beat one of the most deadly viruses on earth, it can certainly handle others such as influenza and the common cold. Most people are under the false assumption that our exposure to germs cause illness. This is a MYTH. Although exposure to the infectious agents are required for illness, they do NOT cause the illness, our weakened immune system does. I believe that this is quite powerful evidence of that.
I will have more articles on natural ways of building and keeping a strong, healthy immune system coming soon, Meanwhile, OPC +,
Colostrum and Fish Oil and most Essential Oils are great for building and maintaning a healthy immune system.
