If you haven't tried Echinacea it might be worth giving it a go. You can buy it in tincture form and it's safe to take everyday. It boosts the body's natural immune system. I take it regularly and give it to my kids every morning. Read the link :)Quote:

thanks Lulu, i'll take a look :)
dosen't pot down your immune system some?
Yeah LuLu when ever I feel a cold coming on I take that stuff and vitamin C then it usually won't last as long
Try not smoking for a while, I know it's a sacrifice but it really doesn't do colds much good.
my immune system seems weaker since I've started herb, how about eveyone else?
I'm smoking since 1983 and I've been sick once in that time :) I'm not saying the herb has anything to do with that but that's how it is.Quote:

Can't say the same here. I haven't been sick any more than usual in the years I've been smoking...Quote:

Many allergies also develop during teenage years due to changes in the body.Quote:

Are you drinking enough water and eating enough fruits and vege's.
Bloody hell every post of mine tonite has been so mummy. Some one shoot me now.....please? :o

Alcohol bang's on your liver and kidney's and lower's your immune system which could be stopping you from recovering in full. It might do you some good to lay off the sauce just for a couple of week's untill you feel better. I take zinc tablets everyday and I haven't been ill since the chest infection I had about 18 month's ago.;)
