Oregano/Butch

 

 

Hey Chris,

Sorry to hear that and hoping he is doing better now.

I couldn't even begin to answer that if I were a medical doctor or if I

knew the answer because he is under the treatment of a doctor and and

only that doctor can answer that question.

If their bodies are not trying to get rid of the invading critters then

they are in deep kimchi. Hard to say about the appearing to get worse

cause we often do get worse before we get better .. and though Oregano

kicks butt on a laundry list of bacterial critters there are obviously

some out and about that will not be affected by it .. and it has no

direct effect on viruses .. can't kill something that is not alive. It

can help the immune system to help itself and maybe force the virus to

stop replicating and go back into its hidey hole .. but that's all.

Good show .. glad to hear that. :-P

 

> He is finally breathing all on his own.....now he has a week to catch up

> for I'll sure send him one to sniff on after he gets home.....but

Was it one of my relatives I would ask the doctor about allowing them to

sniff any essential oil .. some of them can cause a panic and make a

person hold their breath .. might not be the right time now .. so I'd

definitely ask the doctor for an opinion.

 

> BTW, my 22 YO know it all daughter, who does NOT believe in *any of that

I hear you on that .. my ex-girlfriend here was like that .. lived on

antibiotics .. as is the norm in Turkey because even though they are

clearly marked " Sold By Prescription Only " you can get them over the

counter and Turks do and take them at first sign of a cold or whatever.

I finally convinced her to lay off the pills and try Oregano EO .. she

did and had not had a cold or sore throat for months when we split ..

prior to that she was having one every 6 weeks it seemed.

 

She was a University Teacher who thought she knew it all and wanted to

treat me and everybody else like one of her students. My current purty

gal is a Child Psychologist who thinks I am a child who needs to be

psychoanalyzed if I disagree with her on something. I reckon I'm either

a very tolerant feller or a sucker for a purty face .. maybe both ;-)
