RE: Oil of Oregano? Alyssa

[Guest guest]

I would highly recommend OoO - the P73 brand - my whole family has been taking it for several years and none of us have gotten sick since we started taking it. If I feel a cold coming on, I take a couple drops on the tongue a couple times a day. I get it through iherb.com for about $19 compared to our local health food store $29.

I think I have a cold, since my sinuses felt all clogged yesterday and I woke up with a horrid sore throat this morning. I don't really want it to turn into anything, so my question is: do you think I should take oil of oregano to help fight it off? I've never taken it before, and I wasn't sure how it would work with me being on an immunosuppressant. Does it help fight viruses/bacteria by strengthening your immune system (which would be counterproductive, it seems like) or by actually killing the bacteria/virus/fungus itself?Any other advice on how to get rid of a cold/sore throat is appreciated! Since I'm in school I can't go on full intro foods, but I drink a big mug of broth every day. Any other tips?THanks!Peace =)Alyssa 15 yoUC April 2008, dx Sept 2008SCD June 2009 (restarted)Azathioprine 50 mg 1x per dayPrednisone 40 mg 1x per day
