Virus Time

Virus Time is nearly here
Viruses can have immune systems, new research shows
Feb 27, 2013
A study published today in the journal Nature reports that a viral predator of the cholera bacteria has stolen the functional immune system of bacteria and is using it against its bacterial host. The study provides the first evidence that this type of virus, the bacteriophage ("phage" for short), can acquire a wholly functional and adaptive immune system.
It seems each year the viruses are getting smarter so we need to get smarter too. At Cranes Pharmacy we have a whole artillery to help your immune system. Some are on prescription in the form of antibiotics and antivirals and some are available over the counter.  Check out this months special offer Ethical Nutrients Immune pack just $49.95 and it includes Zinc Fix, Cold & Flu tablets and Immune Defense.  Pop one in the cupboard for insurance.
It's a great time to visit our health hub at Cranes Pharmacy to discuss how to bullet proof yourself this winter.
