I seem to have caught a bug... Need some tips on running it out of my system... am thinking vit c.... any other tips anyone can think of? thanks loads
Aww... still not feeling well? *hug* Vit C is a good start, but I'd be pumping myself full of other vitamins as well. Lots of fluids, esp juice and water. If you have a cold, it's a good thing you're vegan as you should stay away from the dairy. I'm not sure if soy milk will give the same mucous issues that cow's milk will give ya, but I'd steer clear of that. Wish I knew more, hon.
You know whats good and natural, follow the flow. Im sure you have heard of the plucibo affect, If you think your sick, then you'll think your sick. But if you dont think your sick, then you wont think your sick. My thoughts are what usually get me sick
That'll be Placebo your thinking of And all this if you think your sick, then you'll think your sick, what? If you think something, then you are thinking of that something But thats not what placebo means anyway. Placebo is more like if you are ill and someone gives you a pill and tells you it'll will make you feel better, you will . Because you think the pill will improve your state, supposedly you'll feel better just because you think you should.
I would just wait..There is bugger all you can do to make it go away...Just sit back, put your feet up, listen to some tunes and wait for your bodies immune system to kick in... Immune systems ROCK!!!
Claire how long have you had this bug.. i have had mine for a while.. My immune system seems not to be 'rocking'.
Since Thursday. I've just been to the herbalist and he said to avoid diary, refined flour and sugar. Eat plenty of fruit and veg. He's given me some black elderberry extract to take too. Bleurgh, It's such a lovely sunny day... I feel like I'm wasting it
Throw stones at passersby ... I can't explain it but it always makes me feel better when I am ill. That and masturbation. Or both at once (that's advanced level only, for serious wankers like me).
Matthew whenever I read a post of yours I can't help but imagine your sweaty grimacing face bearing down on me in the throes of intimate passion.
If only i had the strengh i would try that one.. Thats not so bad..mine has been rumbling on for weeks. I may be dying or something melodramatic like that... I think i may try/avoid a few of those things too, see how thinks go.
If that were to ever happen i think it would clear by illness right up.. create a few a more socialy unaceptable illness .. but my flu would be gone..
