ventilated and windows open to let fresh air circulate.

Take regular baths with lavender and frankincense oils. These oils are strengthening to the immune system.

Adding colloidal silver to your nasal spray is also beneficial. You can get colloidal silver in health-food stores.

SORE THROAT

This inflamed feeling and pain in the tonsil area or back of the throat may sometimes be accompanied by a slight fever.

CAUSES MAY INCLUDE

Colds.

Low immunity.
