Father Nose Best

I knew a guy in high school who thought that the human respiratory system had two parallel pathways, running separately from each nostril to each lung. Well, we now know that is not the case. We also now know that we men have it made when it comes to nasal congestion. With our larger noses, it takes some pretty serious congestion before we’re clogged. Women on the other hand have it rough when it comes to having a cold and are much more likely to suffer from nasal congestion. Since women have dainty, smaller noses, they incur nasal congestion much earlier in the cold cycle than men do and can become congested in a lower level of cold. In fact, they incur congestion in some colds where men, at the same level of colds, are not even affected. So men, let’s be sensitive to our wives, daughters, mothers, grandmothers, nieces and aunts and others females in this cough and cold season. 

For all levels of colds, Uncle Tommy recommends keeping plenty of horseradish on hand for clearing those nasal passages. It’s a nature based treatment and it won’t cost you an arm and a leg. Horseradish by your bedside can lead to a congestion free cold season, for men or women.
