Guest guest Posted October 27, 2001 Report Share Posted October 27, 2001 (( )) I always use Eucalyptus oil. I have mixed it with lanolin for under my nose and on my chest too. You can probably mix with a carrier oil and use as a chest rub. At 11:19 AM 10/27/2001 -0700, you wrote: >Thanks to my 2 year old, I now have a nasty head cold.

Guest guest Posted October 27, 2001 Report Share Posted October 27, 2001 I use dried peppermint and eucalyptus along with rosemary and thyme. I sit with a towel over my head and inhale the warm steam. Opens me right up. I have a cold now too, but it is getting better after a week of Elderberry Tea with goldenseal and my steam inhalations. Oh yeah, Echinacea(sp?) too.
