I’ve been doing this all wrong !
I’ve been poorly since Xmas and despite regular and frequent hot toddies I have not yet managed to shift the symptoms
Some clever Japanese researchers, however, have found that there is a chemical in hops that helps combat cold and flu symptoms – http://tinyurl.com/b28hxa3
And where do you find hops?
BEER !!!
The researchers point out, however, that the chemical is present in such small amounts that one would need to drink around 30 cans of beer before any beneficial effect of the chemical kick in
30 cans ?
I better get started, then !
