Anyone getting their flu shot?

I listen to talk radio 99.7 out of Nashville Tn . On sundays from 6pm till 8 is Dr. Josh Axe. He states that if you are getting enough raw vegetables and meats and all then no shot is needed. I have been on a diet since november and I have lost 60lbs . I eat raw foods and whole foods and even use honey for my allergies. I havent gotten sick since ! If you take care of your body and treat it right then it will take care of itself and you .

I have quit the fast food and pizza and all highly refined foods and grains and sugary drinks like Coke and sweet tea. It has been great ! I went from 42 in the waist to 36 in the waist.

Yes, see above. Eat right (REALLY right, not Lean Cuisine). Wash your hands. Keep your hands out of your face when you're out in public.

And just in case, go see your PCP and get a scrip for Tamiflu. Because if you come down with the flu, it will be on a weekend when Dr. offices are closed and your only option will be the ER.

I've never had a flu shot. I've had the flu maybe 3 or 4 times in my life, including early childhood. I'll sometimes come down with something that feels flu-like, but not nearly as severe. Someone above described it well. You'll feel like you're dying for several days. Unless you have Tamiflu. That stuff is a miracle drug.

Since I've been eating better (whole foods, avoid sugar and grains), I haven't been sick except for what must have been food poisoning a few months ago. That was awful. No colds or flu for a couple years, knock on wood.
