TIA > No comment on flu shots .. I don't have a firm opinion yet .. working on one. You ask if you should " take " the Oregano daily .. not sure what you mean but it sounds like you are ingesting. No need to TAKE it .. just sniff it .. everyone in my home sniffs it daily ... to include Alexander (3.5 years old) .. and we have so far (3 + years) avoided colds and flu. I knock on wood. If you must TAKE it .. then there is nothing wrong with a drop or three in your favorite soup .. look at it as a condiment .. it tastes good and it won't hurt you. ;-) > Jan G in MI > Stay healthy if you can .. and y'all keep sniffing .. err ..
