2. Take 5000 mg Echinacea and a product containing astragalus as soon as you feel a sore throat starting and continue until the soreness is gone.
3. Be fanatical about hand washing.
4. If you are prone to urinary tract infections, have cranberry capsules on hand and take them on the slightest hint.
5. Coconut oil is an antiviral. Read more on http://www.coconutresearchcenter.org/index.htm
6. Clean wounds/bites with hydrogen peroxide ASAP.
All the best!

Definitely will be looking into this. Have you ever had mouth ulcers/ sores on the inside of your mouth? Canker sores?
