COLD, COUGH & FEVER PACK

Flu aid Tablets

Sneezing, scratchy throat, runny nose- everyone knows the first signs of common cold, the most common illness in the world and a leading cause of Doctor visits. Other symptoms include cough, body ache and fever which usually resolve in seven to ten days.

However, these symptoms can also be a manifestation of Flu.

• A cold is a milder respiratory illness than the flu and the symptoms subside in a few days, while in case of Flu the illness persist for a few days to weeks.
• The onset of symptoms for flu is very sudden and fast.
• Flu is a much more severe disease, with symptoms such as fever, chills and body aches.
• A person suffering from the common cold can generally walk about and work but a flu patient usually does not feel like getting out of bed.

Common signs and symptoms of the Flu are: Fever over 100°F (38°C), Aching muscles, especially in back, arms and legs, chills and sweats, Headache, Dry cough, Fatigue, weakness and Nasal congestions.

Fevo Aid Syrup

Fever is a complex physiologic response to disease mediated by pyrogenic cytokines and characterized by a rise in core temperature, generation of acute phase reactants and activation of immune systems.

An elevated body temperature (fever) is one of the ways our immune system attempts to combat an infection. Usually the rise in body temperature helps the individual resolve an infection. However, sometimes it may rise too high, in which case the fever can be serious and lead to complications.

A child has fever when the temperature is at or above one of these levels:

• 100.4°F (38°C) measured in the bottom (rectally)
• 99.5°F (37.5°C) measured in the mouth (orally)
• 99°F (37.2°C) measured under the arm (axillary)

An adult probably has fever when the temperature is above 99-99.5°F (37.2-37.5°C), depending on the time of day. But the degree of fever doesn't necessarily indicate the seriousness of the underlying condition. A minor illness may cause a high fever and a more serious illness may cause a low fever.

A fever can cause one to feel very uncomfortable. Associated Signs and symptoms of a fever besides high temperature include the following-

• Shivering, shaking, chills
• Aching muscles and joints
• Headache
• Intermittent sweats
• Rapid heart rate or palpitations
• Skin flushing Feeling faint, dizzy or lightheaded
• Weakness

When fevers are artificially suppressed, by any method, the body's defense system can't be fully activated & the true situation is masked. Repeated sabotage of the immune system in this way leaves it weakened and less able to respond effectively. Fevo Aid corrects the underlying energetic imbalance that triggered the problem, stimulates the body's natural ability to self-heal and significantly reduces recovery time.

WHEN TRYING TO LOWER A FEVER:

Do NOT bundle up someone who has chills. Remove excess clothing or blankets. The room should be comfortable, not too hot or cool. If the room is hot or stuffy, a fan may help.
A lukewarm bath or sponge bath may help cool someone with fever. This is especially effective after medication is given - otherwise the temperature might bounce right back up.
Do NOT use cold baths, ice or alcohol rubs. These cool the skin, but often make the situation worse by causing shivering, which raises the core body temperature.
