Can anyone else have a go at trying drink Peppermint Tea in order to ward off Colds and also Cold Sores. These are two problems Cyclists get as the Immune System is commonly compromised through hard training and these Virus's get a hold. I have bought a Tea Infuser where I can put the more powerful Oregano (mint family) in the device to get a stronger effect.
Has anyone else found these results and if not give it a try??
Oregano, Mint, Peppermint are all part of the Mint Family of plants and all have these properties.
