That's what the naturopath told me this afternoon.

I've had a nasty cold for over a week, still all blocked up. He recommended some herbal stuff....... and stay off the dairy products if possible.

No problem....... until I really thought about it.

Breakfast........It's winter............ what do I put on my porridge? No, not milk....... honey & yoghurt.

Lunch.......... how will I survive without my favourite ham, cheese & tomato toastie?

Snack.... crackers & cheese, or pumpernickel bread & cream cheese

Dinner......... oh dear, no cauliflower with cheese sauce, no lasagne, no wild rice soup, no leek & potato soup..... waaaaaaaaa

The list goes on :-(

I didn't realise I ate so much dairy !

Hopefully this cold will be gone soon..... it had better go, because I have two 1Kg tubs of yoghurt in the fridge.

If I avoided everything those involved with looking after my health told me to avoid - I would have passed away long ago ;-)

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

AnninGlos... have you been talking to my naturopath? lol

Another thing he told me to avoid for the same reason........ bananas!

I suppose I can't have chocolate either!

OFITG ~ I prefer the naturopath because his medicines are herbal........... I can't take most over-the-counter things at the pharmacy, and I really don't want to take anti-biotics for a cold.

I already take quite a cocktail of medications.
