Rosemary and peppermint essential oils for headaches. I sometimes get bad headaches preceeding a weatherfront that otc meds will not help. Smelling the essential oils helps.


Marijuana is good for that.

Good for hangovers too, helps with nausea.

I have no idea if it does everything the manufacturers claim it does, but taking chlorella daily cleared up some stomach issues, gives me more overall energy and I feel altogether better. Also lost a little weight, not sure if directly because of the supplement, or because of having more energy and being more active.

Black elderberry does seem to shorten colds & the flu, or stave them off if you take it proactively. Easy to buy as pre-prepared syrup in brands like Sambucol or Sambucus... though you can also buy the berries in bulk and make your own syrup to save money.

Omega 3 fish oil for, hopefully, a cardioprotective effect, but beyond that, herbals are mostly placebo effect or you don't actually know what's in the pill. Many of them are comprised of filler like sawdust.

Stuffed up nose? Hit a small bump of cocaine and your nose will clear right up and you'll be good to snort lines all night until your nose starts bleeding!

Kinda OT: but been having stomach problems since Friday... Nothing sits well in my stomach and it feels like food is not being digested... My lower left abdomen is bloated and I haven't have my traditional log bowel movement despite taking a laxative yesterday with only minimal success... Getting comfortable is a MFer and I've only been able to eat soup all weekend

Anytime I start feeling sick/scratchy throat, I take a ton of Vitamin C and it goes away quickly. Could be multiple Vitamin Waters in a day or EmergenC powder in a glass of OJ. I haven't been to the doctor in 15 years. I work in a hospital and I'm around sick people the majority of the day. shite works.
