echinacea seems to help me.When I feel it coming on I take a couple caps
2x a day for a couple of daysbut I can usually feel an outbreak before
it happens.I think CS helps too but I found Echinacia first.I like
Echinacia augustifolium best but purpurea will do.
I like to prepare a tincture with both austifolium and purpurea ,1/2 cup
each in a jar with fill jar 50-50 with everclear and a good unclarified
apple cider vinegar. I let this sit in a cupboard fo a couple of months
then separate the dregs and decant as needed into dropper bottles as
needed.I useally put saranwrap between the jar and lid to protect it
from the vinegar.I give the jar a swirl every day till decanting.
You can use 100proof vodka but use 3/4 vodka to 1/4 ac
vinegar..Sometime I make a jar of each ,one with everclear and one with
vinegar then I stain each and switch liquids before final strain and
decanting. Some times I will make a strong suntea of the echinacia s
and with 50-50 black tea-greentea(Camelia sinences) a cup of barbados
raw sugar i let a kombucha mother work her magic.Kombucha seems to do
her thing with every herb I have thrown at it except avoid aromatic
herbs like mentha and such as they do harm to kombucha.I suppose that CS
would probably kill a kombucha but probably could be taken together.I
had polio in the 50's and Cs helped and the other things above have
helped with the reaccurring nemisis of these pesky sort of hiding-out
kind of viral ambusher bastards that sort of pop-up on you from time to
timeThe echinacea seems to stop colds from running their course at least
that has been my experience but CS seems to do this also.I only use
distilled vinegar for cleaning glass and never as food.I get my lycine
from high lycine cornbread,mmmm.
