Echinacea Testimony
I got up yesterday not feeling my best, sluggish with a headache. I attributed it to only getting 4 hours sleep the night before so I didn't really think anything about it. Late in the afternoon I started feeling kinda not normal if you know what I mean, I started a sneezing episode that I thought would never end, I knew I needed to take echinacea. I couldn't stop sneezing, it went on so long that my husband who was in his office way on the other side of the house heard me sneezing and came in to see what was wrong with me lol! He waited until I finally got done sneezing and calmly asks me "have you been taking your echinacea everyday?"
Well, to have him ask me that was a role reversal for me lol. I was sooooo proud of him for even thinking of that! He never takes any kind of drugs, he even considers aspirin a drug. When I first started tincturing I had to remind him over and over again to take his echinacea everyday!!! We had decided to take 2 tsp. of it a day just because we had it and its so good for you on every level. Now he DOES take it on his own everyday. I on the other hand had been slacking off for the last couple of weeks, that and the fact that my body was run down because I hadn't been getting enough sleep is why whatever it was tried to get me. I didn't get it cause I knocked it right out with the fabulous echinacea!!!!
As soon as I got done sneezing and listening to my husband lecture me on how important it is to take it everyday I got up and took a huge serving spoon full of echinacea. The spoon was much bigger than a regular serving spoon, I'm talking about the kind that was so big I had a hard time fitting it in my mouth! I went and took a 45 minute nap on the sofa and when I woke up I took another giant spoon of echinacea. When I went to bed last night I slept great. Got up this morning feeling like my normal self, not even a hint of the crud!
In case people don't know I just wanted to point out that echinacea isn't just a good preventative, oh it's that but it is sooooo much more! At the first little sign that your body gives you that you're getting sick, run, and I do mean run and take some echinacea and not just a dropperful but at least a tablespoon to start, then see how you feel. If you feel like you need more a couple hours later, take more. Echinacea is able to knock it on its butt before it ever takes hold of you but the trick is to take enough, Enough, ENOUGH as soon as you feel it coming on.
It really pays off to learn to listen to your doctor within, I KNOW without a doubt that if I hadn't knocked out the crud with echinacea the crud woulda had me for sure and for certain!!! Once you learn to listen to your body it will let you know right away when you're catching something, as soon as it does is the time to slam the echinacea and stop it in its tracks.
Echinacea ROCKS!!!!!
