Well here it s Day 22 of 90 day detox!.

Results I have noticed: I am not coughing as much! Yahoo, Yahoo!

I have even decided not to colour  my hair with the support of my hair dresser who totally understands my concern for not wanting to add toxic hair products to my hair. Now this decision may not hold for all 90 days as my hair is very fine and has little body. The colouring gives it body and does look better.
I have cheated as Christmas company came (my family) I have had  a piece of brownie (gluten free) which contains lots of sugar! I do believe sugar adds to my coughing problem.
I also had cranberries which contained sugar and a bowl of jellied salad. Christmas is a hard time to stay pure. Sugar is in so many things!I made a very good turkey dressing with gluten free bread, mixed with sweet potato and coconut oil instead of butter.
I have been able to stay away from dairy except for a little milk in the omelet I made for breakfast.

I have been searching the web for cures for asthma and here are some interesting things I found:
Asthma is on the increase in children in NA. Some research points to allowing children to be exposed to dirt, animals and day care which supposedly helps the immune system??

Asthma according to one doctor can be cured by drinking lots and lots of water. One should drink 1/2 their body weight in fluid ounces every day. This does help me, I am very sure I feel better and do not get sick when I drink H2O and flush out my system.

Another remedy was to drink boiling water with garlic in it. I tried this once and I do believe garlic helps keep me healthy.
Another gal suggested putting  peppermint oil, 2 drops in your water, and drink it. I tried this also and found it helpful as well. Any oil is good. I also firmly believe wild oil of oregano (2 drops under my tongue) keeps me healthy also.

So with all this effort I am trying to stay free from illness. I also definitely am continuing with my usual  medication.

I also think one of the remedies is to get lots of sleep. I require a lot of sleep. Some nights for no reason I do not sleep and I can tell my system works harder on those days.

So wish me luck as I continue on my plan for another 68 days!
