People are not taking sufficient quantities of Vitamin D.

Yup. If you get enough sunlight on your skin you can produce your own Vitamin D... but that isn't really feasible in the winter.

I don't take any Vitamin D supplements, but I consume a lot of pickled herring in the winter to boost my Vitamin D intake.

One day last month I came down with something that felt like it was going to turn into a VERY bad cold. I had a phlegmy cough, headachy from sinus pressure, etc. I put oregano essential oil into a diffuser to get the vapors in my house. The next day the cold was gone. First real illness I've had in three or four years.

We use the Vitamin D Hammer:

At first sign of flu, take 50,000 iu of D3
Every day after, 10k, 3 times during day.
Usually knocks it out in 3-4 days with mild symptoms.

We use oregano oil in the diffusers too. And on the soles of the feet before bed.

It’s the important ingredient in “thieves oil,” what the thieves during the Black Plague would soak their scarf cloths in and hang around their necks and wrists so they could steal from the sick and dead without getting sick.

Thanks! I've used oregano oil (2 drops) in very warm water for a gargle when I have had a sore throat and it has worked. Do you use a high-quality [strong!] oregano oil for your diffuser, how many drops, and for how long?
