How to Build a Powerful Immune System — Part One

September 29, 2026 5 min read

Commonsense natural solutions to preventing colds and flus throughout the Fall and Winter seasons

The subject for today is How to Build a Powerful Immune System — Part One.

We just entered Fall and headed toward Winter, so, for the next few newsletters I’m going to share the stories of people who have been able to knock out colds, flus, candida overgrowth symptoms, and various other pathogenic conditions in just a very short span of time — a few hours, to a day, to two days, cutting down what would normally be one, two, three weeks in some cases, or seven days, which is the typical cold or flu scenario.

To begin with, I just want to share one of my experiences several years ago, where I had stopped flu symptoms in just four hours.

Now, it is possible to knock out oncoming symptoms of almost anything, if you catch it early enough, primarily because the longer a pathogenic condition stays in the body unchallenged, there is a rapid multiplication that takes place in just a span of an hour or two.

So the sooner you get to it — the sooner you attack it hard — then the faster your immune system will be able to respond and deal with the issue.

Numerous times, I’ve have seen where just as soon as the symptom comes on, if I pick up a bottle of Immune Power and pound down 12 or more capsules, plus maybe a tablespoon or so of Sacred Clay, that within an hour it's gone.

If the symptoms have been brewing for a few hours, or overnight, then it will take longer, but still the duration will commonly be shorter, and diminished symptoms, than if no action is taken.

That's very common, as many others have experienced this as well.

Now this may vary based on the actual cause and how long symptoms have been developing. In my case, it was most likely due to the coffee I consumed (now 5 1/2 years off of coffee), that tends to acidify the body, making the body prone to a number of pathogenic conditions.

Fortunately, I have avoided consuming concentrated sugars since the 1980's. Sugar literally deadens the immune response systems, so recovery from an onset like this was much easier than it might be for those that do consume even "just a little bit" of concentrated sugar regularly.

On that evening, I noticed the first symptoms coming on when I was driving to dinner, and I knew I had another hour or so before I was going to be getting home.

I began to feel this sorespot in the back of my throat.

Now, I typically bring a stash of herbs, spices, olive oil, etc. to restaurants, or when traveling, for obvious reasons. Fortunately, I had some Immune Power and some Sacred Clay in this kit that day as well.

So, I began taking that as soon as I got to the restaurant, then immediately asked for some Earl Grey tea, knowing that black tea has some very strong tannins in it, and that tannins have antiseptic properties that would basically knock out a sore throat if gargled briefly with it.

3 forms of cayenne pepper, whole chips and powder

Frankly, the smallest amount of Cayenne Pepper in water and gargled for just a few seconds will do an even better job, and faster, due to its stimulation of circulation, therefore giving oxygen to the blood, tissues, and cells that naturally deal with pathogens. But I did not have that with me that night until I got home.

However, I've been successful with the tannin remedy in a pinch on numerous occasions in the past.

For example, one time when I was flying to another city, and started coming down with a sore throat, I asked for two tea bags of black tea to make it real strong, and quietly saturated my throat with each sip through a couple of cups, two tea bags each, of the tea, and the sore throat was gone by the time we got down on the ground.

Earl Grey, by the way, also has another immune boosting herb in it. It's an essential oil, Bergamot, also known as Monarda, that is good for the immune system.

Many restaurants offer Earl Grey, which is why, in addition to the Immune Power and Sacred Clay, I asked for Earl Grey tea at the restaurant (going back to my original flu knockdown experience).

All combined, it started to improve the throat condition — but by the time I got home, I was still feeling some of the other flu symptoms of fever and low energy, so I took a clay bath after downing another large amount of Immune Power, Sacred Clay, and some Earth and Sea Greens to improve body alkalinity, and a few other herbal formulas.

Then I jumped in the tub, and in the middle of that bath, all the symptoms disappeared about 20 to 30 minutes into the bath. I felt energized, alive, and like I just got a fresh start!

So if you catch it soon enough, and your system isn't weighted down with dietary compromises, the body can respond quickly to put an abrupt end to the symptoms, or reducing the time it take to get the upper hand on them.

The secret is in building the immune system strong enough and quick enough, so your immune system can take care of business in the ways it does best.

This herbal and clay approach to pathogen mitigation is different from the antibiotic approach, and it's different from the colloidal silver approach, or even the MMS or CDS approach — where these approaches are more about using a single element or compound to target and kill certain microbes in order to bring things backonline.

In the case of herbal restoration, it's about nourishing and building up, and letting the immune system do the targeting and killing based on the unique pathogen or pathogens, toxins, or biological condition brewing in the body at the time.

So that's the big secret — and that's exactly how you build long-term immune strength, as well as a lifetime of immunity — naturally.

The goal is to modulate, or restore normalcy, to immune activity and empower the immune system so it can be effective in the ways it knows best how to do, based on your unique condition.

The human immune system knows how to take all factors, known and unknown, into consideration.

If it's hyperactive, or if it's underactive, certain herbal approaches help bring it to the middle where it belongs, and then we provide it further with organic plant-based building blocks, designed to activate hundreds of immune responses in ways that are unique to your specific system.

We feed the immune system with herbs, superfoods, and detoxifying clay minerals — things that the immune system needs in order to build and deploy its immune-responding army, which are its antibodies, white blood cells, and many other other aspects that will take care of the pathogens, regardless of their nature, in very short order.

And this is why this simple program — Immune Power, Sacred Clay, Earth and Sea Greens, and other immune building formulas, like Black Seed Combo and Herbal C, work so well to keep you healthy and fit throughout the Fall and Winter seasons.

Many blessings of health and success.
Enjoy the many gifts from Nature!
