UVC Light Therapy: In a new study from the Columbia University Irving Medical Center (CUIMC), researchers found that far ultraviolet C (far-UVC) light can kill flu viruses. Far-UVC light is highly effective at killing bacteria and viruses by destroying molecular bonds that hold their DNA together.

Vitamin C IV Drips: These drips work by providing your body with a direct infusion of vitamins and minerals. Receiving high doses of vitamins through an IV allows the nutrients to bypass the digestive system for a quicker shot of vitality. There are various combinations to help combat whatever symptoms you might be feeling.

Ozone Therapy IV Drips: This treatment helps to reduce chemical stress through medical ozone and oxygen to stimulate the production of superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase, two powerful enzymes that protect us from free radical damage and oxidative stress.

Up Your Zinc Intake: Zinc is a mineral important for your immune system because the nutrient helps your body make germ-fighting white blood cells. This means zinc can effectively slow down how fast the flu virus multiplies in your body. Take a zinc supplement during flu season, or eat foods that are high in the mineral like lentils, chickpeas, beans, nuts and seeds.

Black Elderberry: Elderberry is the dark purple berry from the European elder tree. The berries are used to make medicine. This immune-supporting herbal supplement can help you recover faster, and it tastes good too!
