So now two of my siblings are sick with that mess that had me infirm for well over a month. Inasmuch as the 'sick-ees' are smokers they will likely retain the mess even longer than I did.
My regimen included supplementing the vitamins and minerals. I take extra magnesium and zinc as well as B complex and conjugated linolenic acids with three grams of ester C three times a day ... that's NINE grams of non acidic vitamin C. Then there was the guaifenesin as well to boot.
This mess clung to me relentlessly despite all the nutrition, rest, and expectorant I could throw at it.
I hope these smoker siblings of mine fare better than I did losing it ... but I am of the opinion that they will retain this mess far beyond the month long plus with which I coped with all it brought to me.
You can't live other peoples lives for them but I sure wish I could dictate a few things like smoking cessation in the presence of overwhelming stupidity ...
No such luck.
