People don't get shingles because they are deficient in pharmaceuticals
Thus the benefit of immune modulators found in nature. You know, magnesium, curcumin, blackseed oil, oleander extract . . . Well, on second thought you probably don't know - but then most people don't as they are taught precious little about natural alternatives and swamped every year with a tide of "just ask your doctor" type commercials about the wonder of mainstream medicine.
Regardless of whether we agree on how much an immune system may be stimulated (and I would point out that there are patented mainstream immune stimulators), surely we can agree that that the immune system is our natural first line of defense against illness.
One thing is for sure, my friend - we don't become ill due to a deficiency in pharmaceuticals.
Be sure to keep a lookout for my upcoming article on natural help for MS. I am sure you will be quite the fan.
