being sick is no fun, so I'm trying to get this cold go away


The Cold Report.
And the Tea Summary.

It doesn't feel like a cool thing to have although it's called a cold.
I have all the herbs that are created to combat this uncool thing. So far I've been making and drinking tea from this great plants, flowers, trees, etc: oregano, thyme, dill, cinnamon, black pepper, nutmeg, cardamon, eucalyptus, calendula, chamomile, green tea, black tea, oolong tea, rose hips, rooibos - red tea, eating garlic, onion and taking vitamins c, b, and stuff that makes milk become yogurt, it comes in capsules and powder - probiotic supplement aka multidophilus, fish oil and flax seed oil which are providing all kinds of omegas.
The sea salt throat rinse or gargle is in my plans.

I would say the thyme, oregano, calendula and eucalyptus is a good combination. I also like the chamomile and cinnamon together.
And some plain hot water in between the teas is a good thing too.

But I keep thinking about mucinex still and kind of ready to go try it out, would rather not use the chemical based substances. But I'm very close to giving that mucinex a try.
Will wait just a bit more.
