| Now you talking Gail,garlic is great stuff for colds and flus,even for infections as well.We have a cat that recently had an infected leg that would not heal for a month or so,i ended up making a garlic poultice and taped it on of a few days,that leg healed within a week. |

i'm terrified of spreading it.
i talk to a lot of oldies during my shifts...and it is hard to keep my distance and be polite at the same time. yelling from across the aisle is simply unflattering.
cranky people live longer. i'm going to live forever! perth, wa |

Hang garlic around your neck?? That will keep the oldies at a distance
