Thread: Sinus infection

  1. #1

    Default Sinus infection

    Hi, i think that i am detoxing again big time.

    I have been on 100%raw food for 4 months now. I am nursing and i still lost all the extra weight and more. I did detox in the beginning with a bronchitis and maybe a month after a cold sore. My skin problem is almost gone. I think from the past that i poison myself with the dairies, this seem to be the major problem with me, it really did store well in my body.

    Now, i am having a sinus infection. This isn't as severe as the time i was vegetarian, but it is uncomfortable and i am looking forward to clear this out. I thought of making an experimentation and eat some brown rice. I was curious on how my body would react and if it would slow down the detox. Also, i needed to increase my milk for i still nurse. Well, i didn't have problem to digest it, but here is what i experimented. I was feeling so heavy and then so exhausted, this isn't funny. On top of this, in the middle of the night, my sinus infection went worst and i started to do fever. The next day, i took some e3live and it helps to balance back my body to a normal PH.

    Well, is there a food or herbs that is good for sinus infection? I am going to take some garlic tonight, hoping it will help. I wish i could do a detox diet to clear out all the chemical in me but i am nursing so i have to stick with the raw food. My 20 months old daughter is fine and she is doing very well. She is a raw baby too.

    Thank you,
    Blessings and love

    Hey, Raw Angel Mom.

    My hat is off to you for still nursing your 20 month old. that is RAWESOME.

    try a neti pot with a saline solution made with good sea salt. the pot will come with instructions on how to make a solution. i've known people to swear by it and use it every morning if they have chronic sinus issues.

    if yours is not chronic, then rinse two or three times per day with the saline solution til 48 hours after your symptoms are gone.

    if you cannot rinse all the way through because of "gunk" then "snort" a saline solution into both nostrils from your cupped palm until you can rinse with the neti pot. you should be able to get one at any health food store.

    good luck!
