Dislikedincreasing salt helps while sick because a person losses more when sick. to counter high salt you take potassium. potassium and flaxseed oil flush out salt. salt/potassium balance is one of the major components of good health. too much salt presses potassium out of the bodies cells causing various ailments while too little and the body can not function properly. but this is beyond the scope of curing a simple cold or flu. any questions please ask and i will cure you.Ignored
When you're the wretched one suffering,
no cold or flu is 'simple'. Even a day is too long.
That's like saying, 'minor' surgery.
hardly considered 'minor'...
if you're the one on the operating table.
