There's some stuff that we take in Canada called ColdFX. It boosts your
immune system. And if you have a little cold you just take as
prescribed, but when I had a really bad flu, the chemist told me to take
3 x as much the first, 2 x as much the second day, and then as normal.
that boost always gets rid of flu. And when it's just a cold, it always
nixes it fast. I dont know if you can get it here - I brought lots with
me. I couldnt live without it! I think I must have a weak immune system
otherwise, as Im really susceptible to colds too. Which is why I've been
panicking about the H1N1 virus and I had to stock up on Tamiflu. I
didnt think the ColdFX would cut it on that one!
Hope youre feeling better now, squeamish.

hey peeps
Poor you squeamish, there are so many colds and virus's going around.
Try the echinacea, 3 times a day - 20 drops in 0.5ml of water. Its best in tincture formula rather than tablets.
If you also heat up a tablespoon of honey, add 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, then squeeze the juice of a fresh lemon in it - let it cool down and then drink it. It works wonders for getting rid of sore throats....and its antibacterial.
For the nose, steam inhalation with some vicks or olbas oil works a treat and then drop a few drops of olbas oil on your pillow at night.
Get better soon
