Don't Get Swing Flu

Miss PiggyWhen President Obama was telling us to wash our hands the other night he should have taken it just one step further. He should have told us how to wash the inside of our nose! I know this sounds a little gross but the practices of cleansing sinus passages with a netty pot has been around for centuries. I can personally vouch for this! Whenever I feel a cold coming on I use a netty pot for a day or two and it  knocks it right out. Even those horrid colds you catch while flying.

Although I have been exposed to tons of stuff I haven’t had the flu or a real cold in three years. My acupuncturist gave me a tip: in addition to filling the pot with salt water, add a tiny bit of organic tumeric to the solution. Tumeric is an incredible anti-microbial! So if you think you’ve been exposed to anybody who has anything play it safe and use the netty pot. This great demo will walk you through the entire process.
