Alpha Omega Labs'
The immune-building "Anti-Plague" formula was
created on what seemed like a whim by the late
Dr. Christopher
So how did it gain such "cult status" among
so many American herbalists?
The short answer --- it works.

 any proprietary herbal formulas are created, with or without
health claims, subsequent clinicals, or elaborate marketing schemes
by their creators. A few become popular enough to become standard
bearers on the shelves of herbalists throughout the formula's
culture of origin. The vast majority of these products
live out their lives, often experiencing fortunes that parallel
those of their creators -- and then slowly sink into obscurity ---
not unlike their pharmaceutical cousins. At the other end of
the spectrum are those formulas that work quite well, gain
substantial popularity among its users, and gain a
"cult status" among its fans.
 Such is the case with Anti-Plague.
Though Anti-Plague -- and this would include imitation formulas which it
spawned -- has seen a surprising number of incarnations, the basic formula
itself came from a customer request to create a product that would help
a family "survive the coming Plagues" -- (an obvious reference of the
millennialist Christian's belief in humanity's coming tribulations).
Though the response given by Dr. Christopher®* was quite focussed on the
issue and reverential to the querant's quest, the formula itself has
grown in popularity that far exceed the boundaries under which it
was created. (For those who wish to look deeper, we provide the
original video of
Dr. Christopher® discussing the Anti-Plague formula.]
 In recreating the Dr. Christopher®
formula, we have strictly adhered to the original formula, except
for the addition of Olive Leaf Extract. (See column at right).
The instructions are simple: take
one Tablespoon (15 ml.) once per day -- holding the product
sublingually for 15 to 20 seconds before swallowing. This
is the "maintenance dosage." For colds and flu, take 2 oz.
per hour in the early, pre-symptom (i.e. prodromal) stages.

What's in It?
And Who Makes It?
 Our version of Anti-Plague
is very close to the original formula, save for the addition
of olive leaf extract.
Ingredients: Fresh garlic juice, wormwood,
lobelia, marshmellow root, white oak bark, black walnut
leaves, mullein leaves, scullcap, gravel root, plantain
leaves, olive leaf extract, aloe vera gel -- all in base
of pure vegetable glycerin, apple cidar vinegar,
and raw, unfiltered honey.
 The formula itself
is handcrafted by a master herbalist and naturopathic
"vitalist" in the U.S. who is a
life-long student of Dr. Christopher's work -- an
associate of Alpha Omega Labs for some years now.
 One of the reasons
we collaborated on this formula is our own sense of
"fair play." As good as this product is, our feeling
was that $16.95 for just 4 fl. oz. --
(a common retail price point for this product),
was a bit excessive. It amounts to only eight days
of dosages at the recommended 1 tablespoon (15 ml.)
per day. (Anti-Plague is not a tincture -- nor are
the herbs uncommon.)

In addition, the product name, we feel, is slightly
misleading: Anti-Plague Syrup [emphasis
added]. This product is NOT a syrup -- but instead
yields a viscometer reading much closer to plain water:
under 2.0 cP (centipoise).
 Now our customers
can enjoy the wonderful effects of Anti-Plague
at a price point that is not so pricey.
