Near-Cure for the Common Cold -- How Trump can Help [aw!m vanity]
key word -- ZICAM ^

Posted on 12/18/2017 3:07:54 AM PST by Arthur Wildfire! March

Obama is the common cold's best friend. OUR HEALTH was damaged when Zicam was slandered. Why? Because Zicam was one of Rush Limbaugh's favorite sponsers.

--A near-cure for the Commmon Cold

Zicam had a revolutionary product that put zinc directly into the sinuses. That zinc obliterated most of the viral infection.

-- Obama's heavy handed punishment of Zicam

Zero's FDA banned the product due to the alleged danger to your sense of smell. First off, people have used themselves a human trial canaries for years, myself included. If anything Zicam IMRPOVED my sense of smell.

Secondly, I never knew that the sense of smell is so terribly important. For example, it's harder to eat health food when you can smell it. And believe me -- odds are could take Zicam for a decade and still be able to smell.

-- Simple Solution

Donald Trump can end the clearly partizan ban with a simple executive order and simply warn people that the possible risk is out there. "Buyer beware" -- that used to be the 'American way'.

-- Good v Evil

Is it not strange? We stand for people living better, being healthier. But at every turn we face evil. All too often that evil is manifested in leftists and enabled by the corrupt Establishment.

[Was there a single successful lawsuit against Zicam — especially prior to this witch hunt? Just curious.]

True as in and innovative business, they found ways around the road blocks put in their way. But, none has been as effective as the original product.

Obama punished Zicam for being a Rush Limbaugh sponser. Obviously partizan. Trump should vindicate ZICAM and get the Feds off their back. Just a disclaimer: ‘Might hurt your sense of smell.’ [Not that it does. It improved my sense of smell.]

Thank you for your input!

ZICAM did have an awsome product, and Obama punished them for being a Rush sponser. Rush personally used the original Zicam. I did too. I’ve been trying to mash zinc tablats and soak them in water. Just not quite the same.

Did you ever try the original Zicam product? It was amazing.

You can’t get the original Zicam. Obama banned it. And it was ten times better.

keep immunity up with zinc and other important stuff (nutrient, sleep, water etc) and don’t get sick in first place.

I used to take Zicam when a cold was coming on.
Then I read several reports that the zinc compound in it damages your taste buds. I didn’t believe it at first until I noticed that foods were becoming bland.
It took about 6 months before my sense of taste came back.
I suppose I was lucky, because the reports said that it could be permanent.

My household agrees. Zicam was very helpful.

Failing it being available . . . we used the NEIL MED saline wash in the squeeze bottle.

Then we went to the colloidal silver available from

http://www.msminerals.com

The potency of their silver, per our research, far outstrips almost far outstrips all others. One other is slightly in the same ballpark but still significantly below this brand--in our experience. Both these top two come in 200ppm.

We haven't checked about for the general public but a much more potent concentration ppm may be available. That allows significant dilution down to 200ppm.

But we think it would be great to have Zicam back. Housmate's nose has been hypersensitive all his life and he still has a good sense of smell even after using a fair amount of Zicam when it was available.

The tablets work for me if I feel a cold coming on. I’ve also drastically reduced the number of colds by taking a daily dose of vitamin D.

I take the tablets at the first sign of a cold coming on. They’re excellent.

I had the exact same experience, only I totally lost my sense of smell for about 3-4 weeks. Totally. I found it frightening, since we cook/supplemental heat w/propane and use it in our business. Food had no taste and I’d lost the ability to know if it was spoiled. No sense of smell was disorienting.

The Zicam cured my cold in a day, but the price wasn’t worth it.

The original Zicam was the best! In a way, I think it might be the reason my mom is 93 now. She went through a period of extremely compromised immunity several years ago. When we traveled with her during cold season we dosed her with Zicam and she was safe.

This is one “regulation” I’d love to see PDJT nix.

And what about OTC asthma inhalers? They were banned "because they hurt the ozone"! Unbelievable! Banned over minuscule amount of propellant in an asthma inhaler compared to 100s tons of CFCs released industrialy world wide. Another gift from Obama.

Of course I don't blame Obama as much as the squishy inept bumbling George W. Bush who paved the yellow brick road for Obama in the first place.

What are the “the tablets” you mentioned? Do you mean Airborne, or is there a Zicom tablet still on the market?
