Get Rid of Infections

Today I published another jumping off point for a series of articles deal with how to get rid of infections. We’ve covered a number of infectious diseases so far, but never so much as to explain the basic science and taxonomy of infections. At the moment there are 5 major types of infections: bacterial, viral, [...]

Get Rid of a Sinus Infection

I’d say this article about how to get rid of a sinus infection was rather prescient considering my current state of health. At the moment I’ve got a sinus infection that I’ve managed to fight pretty well using the techniques described there. As I mentioned in the introduction, this topic is nothing new to me. [...]
