Date: 2012-02-04 11:17 pm (UTC)"Most of the mucous from the respiratory tract is swallowed and waste to be expelled from this mucous makes its way to the colon. During an illness like a cold, viral particles remain in quantity in the colon. The gentle washing away of the bulk of this material allows the immune system to focus on the respiratory tract rather than maintain a second larger front in the colon. This is one reason why almost all doctors in the preantibiotic era recommended enemas, or at the least laxatives, for colds. The use of enemas gives immediate relief of symptoms and helps to concentrate the immune response where it is needed."
But it's not recommended today, as far as I know...which leads me to think that this is probably bunk.

Date: 2012-02-05 02:56 am (UTC)Also, I don't use one of those Netipots. I just took the injector syringe that came with a bottle of Tony Cachere's marinade (without the needle, of course!!!) and it works great with a bit of salt water. Seriously, it works great to flush out the congestion, kind of like a nose enema to put it bluntly. I even called into a talk radio show to recommend it! :D
