We had no Christmas, no turkey dinner, no tree, just me very, very sick. Since that flu episode in December 1993, I had a cold a few years ago, for about a day and a half. People who have known me for years know that I am a very healthy 50 year old. One thing I don't do and have never, ever done and that is take any over the counter drug product except Exceedrin. Nothing, zero, zip.
Doctors are wonderful if they know what they're doing.
If America would just get serious about their health, you'd be surprised how little you would actually get sick. My husband has been sick a couple of times in the past six years, nothing serious, nothing that one afternoon in bed didn't cure. I can't tell people what they should or shouldn't do because I'm not a doctor. I can tell you real life stories and what I do in my health routine and have been doing for a long time. This is an issue that you must research for yourself and experiment, if you choose, with natural remedies that do work.
