This chest infection 'thing'

[Count Steer]

Last time I had the proper flu I took one of these in desperation



... and it knocked me out cold halfway through my dinner.

Really? There doesn't appear to be anything in it that would make you drowsy (or make you better - although one big slug of Vitamin C won't hurt and echinacea might perk up your immune system*). Worth a try as a hot drink I guess.

* it was said to be used to prevent colds, so maybe as an occasional booster too but not a daily thing with all that Vit C in.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's a massive coincidence - I just thought it was amusing.

It's amusing but also a bit of a swizz at £2.50 a shot (compared with about 40p for something with actual drugs in ).
