post nasal drip

I had this too a last year. your body is using your sinuses to

unload waste it can't get rid of elesewhere, unfortunately its just

going down your throat. as you cleanse it could get worse. The

first flush should bring some improvement, and rinsing with a neti-

pot with sea salt water and perhaps a few drops of tea tree oil will

bring temporary relief while your cleansing progresses. eating

dairly or other processed foods, including sugar, can make this much

worse. hope this helps you.

For relief from the sinus pain, pressure and post nasal drip I would highly

recommend doing a sinus flush. I was reluctant to do this for over a year

after my MD recommended it to me. Finally out of desperation I tried it.

You will need a Neti Pot and Lomatium (an herbal liquid you can find

on line or at a health food store). Here is a link for the Neti

Pot. http://www.bytheplanet.com/Products/Yoga/neti/Netipot.htm

It even has a video stream that will show you how to do the flush.

It looks totally bizarre - which is why I never wanted to try it.

I did one once in the morning and once in the evening for two days

and have not had one since! Even my husband broke down and tried it

(he thinks I'm a wacko for all this alternative shit I do). He too,

has not had another sinus infection since. Anything - not to take

another antibiotic!

I still believe that you need to work on the underlying cause of the

sinus infections, and I am working on that still. But, for relief,

this has been a gold mine for me.

post nasal drip

hi,

i'm currently on a strict diet (initial strict phase of " The Body Ecology

Diet " by Donna Gates) to deal with my candidiasis, and am reading s'

books and plan to do the liver flush etc soon...

after about 10 days on the diet i'm noticing some subtle improvements in

some areas, but my worst problem, a severe case of post-nasal drip, shows no

signs of improvement. i've had this problem for about 5+ years

i'm not loooking for a quick-fix, i just want to know that i'm on the right

path. i'd really like to hear from any body who has effectively rid

themselves of chronic post-nasal drip.... any tips etc would be greatly

appreciated!

thanks

I agree, and just posted more information on a sinus rinse that worked for

me. For me, before I got the candida under control, when I slipped and did

have sugar, I had immediate sinus pain!

About the milk, though. I agree you should stay away from dairy products;

that is if you are consuming milk that is ultra-pasteurized and/or

homogenized. They are completely void of the enzymes that your body

requires to digest them. You cannot culture yogurt with ultra-pasteurized

milk - nothing will grow in it. That should tell you something - if nothing

can grow in it because it has no life force, then how could it nourish you.

It does nothing but clog your system. If you have it available, raw milk

and milk products are very beneficial! If not, try to find whole organic

milk that has only been pasteurized. Organic Valley makes this version,

although most stores don't carry it. Request that they do! FYI -

ultra-pasteurized milk does NOT need to be refrigerated and will keep that

way for four months! Gross huh?

For more information concerning milk visit www.realmilk.com

Hi ,

I have had the same problem for 3 years now. Along with the constant

draining of my sinuses I have sinus pressure. I don't eat dairy or

sugar, and have tried many anti-fungals, etc... I tried the netti

pot with no success. My throat also is always scratchy, probably

from the post nasal drip. I have been able to get rid of all of my

other problems except for this stubborn sinus problem. My father has

the same problems I do, and I had a Dr. tell me that it is genetic

and can't be cured. I believe that there is something out there, and

will keep trying new things. If you try ANYTHING that works or

improves your condition, I would love to hear!

This is also the last of my symptoms to leave. I do find that eating

sugar/dairy makes it much worse, with added sinus pressure front of

face, trouble breathing etc, but avoiding both doesn’t seem to cure it..

I would also like to hear if anyone has any ideas for a solution
