So The Wife is sick. Not horrible, just a normal head cold. I went to get some immune boosters of some sort, and ended up buying some Sambucol. It was an impulse buy. There's something about using elderberry extract to fight viruses and bacteria that just appeals to me. It was developed by a woman, which is cool. And, it's been around for a long time. Oh, and it tastes pretty much like kid's cough syrup, so you KNOW it's gotta work. It is working dandily to keep me from getting the bug The Wife has, as well as helping her heal quickly.
I looked Sambucol up to write about it, because I thought it was kind of retro and cool and whatnot. What did I find? It seems that it may fight the bird flu, in addition to being a comfy throwback for those who were raised by hippies in the '70's. Go figure.
Enjoy the small discoveries,
Bp
