Guest guest Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 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!
