Fighting to overcome what feels like a sinus infection. Drinking Red Snail Black Tea from Teavivre. One of my favorites - smooth, no bitterness, just a good, luscious tea. Hoping it'll bust open my sinuses.
@leejackson Take a look at this:

Andrew Weil goes for low-tech remedies as a rule. So do the people that contribute to his website.
@MisterE Interesting info. Mine feels like it's starting to move down into my lungs. I've given it until tomorrow morning. If it's worse, I'm headed to the doctor for at least a check. I'm prone to bronchitis and have a somewhat-compromised immune system.
@leejackson Are you taking pro-biotics currently?
@MisterE Couldn't hurt. My doctor got me onto the probiotic. I don't know what his opinion of the turmeric is, though. Never asked.
@leejackson Sounds like you are doing fine following this doctor's suggestions ( or orders! ).
@MisterE My doctor is pro-active where it counts, especially with someone like me who gets sick a lot.
He's now my wife's primary care doctor, too, and he's not pushing quite so many pills her way. However, when she ran into a problem with one pill causing bad side effects, he suggested an OTC supplement to counteract them. It worked wonders.
The guy knows his stuff.
@leejackson Hard to find docs like that nowadays. Most are just too busy to care.
@leejackson @MisterE just be sure of your sourcing for turmeric. It’s so popular some suppliers are cutting corners.
@leejackson OK. Some of them are meant to boost the immune system, along with other good effects such as clearing up fungal infections. I have an interest as I am thinking of taking a product that contains 7 pro-biotics and Turmeric.
