I got a cold last weekend and it decided to go directly to my sinuses. Man! So there's two more days I walk around feeling "ick."
I figure, there has to be some sort of food I can eat to stop getting colds and barring that, to stop the cold from going into my sinuses.
And, what can I start eating now to boost my immune system.
(btw: I cook all my food at home. I never go to fast food joints. I love garlic in all its forms. I use a lot of tomatoes, mozzarella cheese (low-fat), onions, potatoes, chicken, turkey (no red meats), no sugar and very little coffee, fresh veggies, lots of salads and I use VirginOliveOil in most of my cooking.)
I eat breakfast and only nibble lunch because I'm not hungry. And we have a good dinner. I get plenty of sleep..., well most of the time - so that's the *basic* background.
Is there anything else I can do do get things up to speed? I don't want to be sick all winter like last year. The house leaks like a sieve so there are no dangerous toxins floating around - and as the person who orders the oil, take my word on it
I figured if anyone knew of some good ways to make your medicine your food and your food your medicine then it would be here. (Yep, that's someone's sig line and I always liked it. Makes sense.)
Thanks!
