I explain the difference between a viral infection and a bacterial infection; plus, I give your remedies for each type of infection. Well, it’s difficult because the symptoms are often the same: fever, developing a cold, muscle ache, sore throat. You could get a blood test to rule out a bacterial infection; otherwise, you’re not going to know.

Most respiratory infections are viral, although they can be bacterial. And you can have a combination of the two! A viral infection could last 7 to 10 days. If bacterial, 2 weeks. Note that if you have a viral infection, antibodies won’t work. If you take antibiotics too often, you set yourself up for a condition called antibiotic resistance, and the antibiotics won’t work anymore. Plus you’ll weaken your immune system, decrease the good gut flora you need, and be susceptible to secondary infections.

You suffer two types of damage with an infection. One way to protect against damage is to put your body in ketosis. When you have ketones, you decrease the damage from oxidants that your immune system releases when you have an infection.

Even if you don’t know which type of infection you have, here are remedies I recommend:

Olive leaf extract helps put viruses in remission but also helps with bacterial infections
Calcium also helps put viruses in remission. Remember, a virus isn’t alive. You’ll be at risk depending on your stress level, the quality of your diet, and whether you’re consuming sufficient nutrients. If you have a child with a fever, calcium will help them.

Increase your temperature; turn up the heat, climb into bed under many covers, and sweat. Take a hot bath or a hot shower

Consume lots of garlic, for either a viral or bacterial infection.

Do fasting. You usually lose your appetite anyway; that’s your body saying not to eat. Fasting can speed up the course of the infection.
