Default I'm still in denial. Zicam is my friend. If I can hold it off until after the holidays, then I'll

be happy. I'm going to spend the week in the mountains and don't want to be sick the whole time.

Default Zicam? Its a homeopathic Zinc-based supplement thats absorbed through mucus membranes

or other permeable tissues. They have an oral spray version and a nasal swab. Basically it just inundates your system with Zinc, which is one of the primary things your body uses to fight colds.

Default Zinc, fingers that is, are also one of the best ways to bind to DNA.

Some people have sued about because of a loss of smell. Though generally anything sent in large quantities into your nose irritates the membrane and will cause a temporary loss of smell.

Default Oh, sorry to hear that dude.

If you are dying and can't leave the house, I can drop food/stuff off at your house since I work right next to you.
