ABSTRACT Ou MC decrescendo phenomenon (OuDP) is induced by interaction between human bilateral features and has shown to alleviate or cure infectious and non-infectious diseases. The resolution of non-infectious conditions with OuDP indicates to be consistent with restoration of normal tissue function (AJEM, 2012; Proc Physiol Soc, 2014). Ou MC handing remedy (HR) was utilized ...

Immunoflu...
