Guest guest Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 , ask her where she thinks the illness will go when there are no tonsils to catch it? Usually gets people thinking about there health and that of an unborn.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 i once read, and she read too that your tonsils are only used until you are about three. obviously this is wrong. is anything going on with the tonsils until the age of 3 or around the age of 3? ----- Original Message ----- From: Janet Seidlitz health Sent: Wednesday, September 01, 2004 2:30 PM Subject: Re: tonsil removal , ask her where she thinks the illness will go when there are no tonsils to catch it?

Guest guest Posted September 5, 2004 Report Share Posted September 5, 2004 Think of them like a filter. They help stop some foreign invaders from getting into the rest of the body. When they get swollen and painful they are usually fighting a serious "war" with something. This is when you need to help them out with some echinacea and super tonic, gargling with warm salt water, etc. Take them out and you are removing an important working part (at any age) of the human body.
