“In order to shine on the Oscars red carpet, Hollywood starlets need to prepare with top-notch trainers, expert stylists and the absolute best homeopathic product to fight the flu – Oscillococcinum! When celebs like Debra Messing and Felicity Huffman can’t afford to miss an appearance, they turn to the ultra-popular Oscillo, and with winter sniffles spreading like wildfire, casts of hit shows like Grey’s Anatomy, Gossip Girl, Entourage and Ugly Bettypass around the FDA-regulated product on set. Not only A-listers can use Oscillo – it works for the not-so-famous too, and can be picked up from Whole Foods Market or CVS.”

“Getting sick when you’re working long hours on a TV show can be an occupational hazard – especially during flu season. On the sets of Gossip Girl and Grey’s Anatomy, the homeopathic flu fighter Oscillococcinum (Oscillo for short) is a go-to remedy for the cast. The FDA-regulated tablets – which are available in health-food stores and pharmacies – reportedly shorten the duration of the virus when taken at the onset of symptoms.”

“I support homeopathic medicines over over-the-counter medicines. First of all, these don’t contain any of the active ingredients that are found in pediatric over-the-counter formulas that were cause for recall last year. These have active ingredients that are from natural substances which work with the body to help the body rebalance itself and heal itself.”

“I don’t like to support one brand over another. I don’t endorse products. But this is a one of a kind. There’s nothing like it on the market. This is a homeopathic preparation. It’s been on the market worldwide for 65 years. It’s a tough name to pronounce but it’s even tougher on your flu. And the key with this, and I can even show you, it comes in this little packets of three little vials. Inside the vile are these little white pellets. You pop some of those under your tongue. Let it dissolve in your mouth at the first sign of symptoms. That’s the biggest mistake people make. They let the virus take hold. If you get that at the first sign of symptoms: poof! There goes the flu.”

“Though I am the most skeptical person I know, I couldn’t believe that homeopathy worked, even when I saw it happening. The first encounter was with a simple flu remedy Oscillo. Bang! A flu that had lasted for two weeks with my patients and colleagues was gone in 24 hours.”

“The research is somewhat promising. Two separate authors reviewed seven well-controlled studies that showed that it was able to reduce flu-like symptoms by about seven hours. That doesn’t sound like a lot, but if you feel miserable, seven hours can make a difference,” said Joy Bauer, New York City nutritionist and Today Show contributor.

“I used to take it when I felt a cold or something worse coming on. And I will tell you, I always still got the cold, but you know what, I think I got better a little bit quicker if I kept taking it,” said Today Show host Matt Lauer.
