You know that researchers are constantly investigating ways to prevent and treat Alzheimer's disease. They often doing so using mice because they're able to obtain results quickly — the lifespan of a mouse is much shorter than that of humans! While we can't just assume that what works for mice will work for us, the findings are often a good starting point. That's been the case for a particular antioxidant researchers have been investigating.

You've heard me say many times that getting the flu is good for you. It activates your immune system. And an activated immune system is much less likely to come down with chronic degenerative diseases, such as cancer and cardiovascular disease.

That's why it's so important to know how to prevent the flu and to have a doctor who knows how to beat the flu with ozone and vitamin C therapies. And now, new research is finding that coming down with the flu could be much more serious than we thought. Rather than knocking you out of commission for a week or so, getting infected with the flu could actually have lifelong implications.
