Interesting post. Friday I was diagnosed with pneumonia. On Saturday, a kind neighbor brought chicken soup. I ate it as hot as possible, and with a lot of pepper. An hour later, I felt great. Sadly, it only lasted about 12 hours, so I’ll see the doc tomorrow morning.
My dad used to tell about the mustard plasters his parents used to give the kids. It sounds disgusting and smelly, but effective. Might be something to consider.
