hi i have a question... unsa tambal sa sip.on?! TABANG!

[P-Chan]

@jeremy: vitamin C lng.. hehehe

[haLLieMhE]

try calamansi juice..mas cheaper pa..kay tag .50cents ang isa.. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

[makuz]

actually ang tambal sa sipon kay mag huwat raka na maayu...you see a certain virus causes cold...and viruses unlike bacterias, cannot be destroyed by the body's defense( mao na ang aids walay tambal) but the good thing about viruses is that they are self-limiting, so meaning within time they will die...but with AIDS man gud when the virus dies, it already did too much damage on your body.

so thats that...thanks for your responses, i hope i shed some light into the situation.

@makuz:

I do still feel some pain on some parts on my body where I had some injuries before (normally mga sprains). How should I handle this? Pasagdan lang nako and let it heal in time or should I have someone check it?

Gi sip-on pa ka? Hehehe! If makuz doesn't mind, naa lang ko'y ipuno sa iyang tambag...I've found out that using saline nasal spray worked wonders for me, not in terms nga naayo akong sip-on (sip-on, as markuz said is caused by a virus) but in terms of draining the mucus and clearing my airway. This is safe, virtually no side effect at all. Also, despite its notoriety, PSE (pseudoephedrine) does help a lot with the congestion. Be careful lang, it'll get you wired and as high as a kite. It's dangerous pud for people with HBP.

RE: hi you are a nurse right

whats the rule of antioxidant dyd.. heard lots of thoise and its the first level of body defense mechanism... can you comment about it....

well anti oxidants are supposed supplements for our body to keep healthy....but as supplements are, they dont really have the same effects on everybody...our metabolism sorta makes us unique in a way...but research has shown that antioxidants can help prevent cancer(carcinoma promotes cancer growth)...but then again its not conclusive, so the best that i can suggest is just live a healthy life, proper diet, excercise, emotional stability, and minimal stress....and cross your fingers that ur blood line doesnt have cancer cuz thats a pretty big chance of you having one...but if ever you do have a heredity of cancer....early detection and treatment is the best method so far.

hahahaha i dont know carl, try some paracetamols or asperins...but be careful with asperin cuz it promotes bleeding...so its not a good idea to take it habitually or to take it before engaging in physical activities(except for *** cuz thats inevitable) wahahahaha

peace!
