Back From the Brink

It's been kinda quiet around here because I've had a raging, debilitating sore throat since Thursday — the kind where all you want to do is hang out and watch back episodes of Entourage, although that's pretty much what I want to do all the time anyway, but that's beside the point. I needed to snap out of it and, thanks to the Amazing Goddess Known as Christi Bonds of Integrative Medicine of Kentucky, I'm actually up and showered and dressed today, and I'm even going to venture outside. That's thanks to these handy miracle pills that Christi brought over on Friday: Isatis Gold and Jade Screen. And the little ginger-flavored Gin-Gins that I've been sucking on for 48 hours straight. I gotta tell ya: They work. With cold and flu season upon us, Christi recommends taking a few Jade Screen every day — these little guys help you build up a shield against all the icky germs that are gonna start floating around. If you do feel any cold or flu symptoms, take Isatis Gold right away — this Goldenseal and Echinacea blend works, but you have to use it as soon as possible. On top of that, a little acupuncture absolutely seals the deal. Christi poked me around my eyebrows and nose yesterday. It hurt, but I woke up feeling a ga-zillion times better this morning. I hear Christi's Healing Angels art show was packed this past Friday! If you want to see it, stop her HeART of Healing Gallery, 233 North 7th St., any Saturday. And pick up some of these miracle pills and get a little acupuncture while you're at it! Thanks, Christi! Her number, by the way, is 442.2324.
