Until now experts had thought that antibodies, such as white blood cells, could only tackle viral infections by blocking or attacking viruses outside cells. But work done by the Medical Research Council shows antibodies can pass into cells and fight viruses from within.
The landmark discovery was made at the University of Cambridge’s Laboratory of Molecular Biology, also known as the ‘Nobel Prize Factory’ due to its ability to win the prestigious prize (it’s tallied up 14 awards so far).
Viruses remain mankind's biggest killer, responsible for twice as many deaths each year as cancer, and are among the hardest of all diseases to treat.
The new discovery by Dr Leo James and his colleagues at the Medical Research Council has transformed previous scientific understanding of our immunity to viral diseases like the common cold, 'winter vomiting' and gastroenteritis.

If you eat organic foods, drink filtered water, absolutely stay away from fast food & pre-packaged foods, you'd stay healthy.
tablespoon of organic apple cider vinegar daily will keep you healthy.
if you catch cold or flu, take elderberry extract instead of man-made-crap-designed to kill you.http://lacetoleather.com/safenaturalcures.html

Oh yes, by all means, buy into whatever bogus shit you want.
You're only selecting yourself out of the gene pool when you really get sick and don't bother to go to the hospital.
