Hi guys, I'm feeling like I'm coming down with something which is very rare for me.
I've heard you can get antiparasitics to conquer the virus, does anyone know of the best dosing protocol? Or if anyone takes it as a preventative measure throughout the year?
I appreciate the help, thanks.
For a cold, I have tried lots of things, but the best things seem to be the following, in order of effectiveness:
* I add about 2 tbsp of 35% FOOD GRADE H2O2 to a humidifier and I sleep with it. That clears up a whole lot of issues usually. I also brush my teeth with water and nothing else. Occasionally I'll rinse my mouth and gargle with 3% FOOD GRADE H2O2 once or twice a week and I have NO issues with my mouth. In fact, the dental hygienist thought I had already had my teeth cleaned. (Gargling 3% FOOD GRADE H2O2 is effective for sore throats as well.)
* If I am congested up, I take decongestant. Get the stuff you have to buy from a pharmacist. The stuff on the shelves don't work. I haven't figured out a way to clear out my sinuses yet outside of this. I'll cough up all sorts of junk and weird stuff will come out of my nose when I do this.
* I tried iodine and it helped a little. I eat fish and use iodized salt so I don't have an iodine deficiency.
* I tried zinc sulfate but it doesn't do much. It actually makes me feel worse.
* Do NOT take aspirin, acetimenophen (tylenol) or ibuprofen. These do NOT help you in the long run. I've read studies showing that taking ibuprofen, for instance, when you get a sprained ankle makes it take LONGER to heal.
Chicken soup is also surprisingly effective, even Campbell's. It's very easy to make. Buy a whole chicken. Put it in a pot. Cover it with water. Put a lid on it. Simmer it for hours. take the bones out, eat the meat if you want, put the meat back in and add chopped veggies (carrots, onions, celery) and noodles or rice and boil it until the veggies are soft. Add salt or pepper or whatever you want. Bingo. You have almost a guaranteed cure.
You can freeze this stuff and thaw it out and it still works.
The kind of decongestant that is a controlled substance because people make methamphetamine out of it.
