<p>Well, there's something going around (Irving, TX) and several people around me are sick. For me, I have the sniffles, and a cough (regularly coughing up phlegm). I wasn't too worried about it, but now I'm on the third week. So, after some thought, I realized that 3 weeks ago was when I started incorporating potatoes back in the diet regularly, BUT, I fry them in Coconut oil, which I don't normally use. </p> <p>General Thoughts? Advice? </p>

<p>Its probably just a coincidence, there is no mechanism for potatoes and coconut oil to give you the sniffles or a cough as far as I know.</p>

<p>I'm also thinking coincidence. Do you use a neti pot? I've found it to be really helpful during cold &amp; flu season!</p>

<p>Well, others may disagree but I crave citrus when I'm sick and it always seems to help. My taste changes, though, because when healthy I prefer grapefruit but when sick I prefer a sweet orange. I also like ginger drinks if my stomach is unhappy. I also like bland foods such as a sweet potato with butter or a banana.</p>

<p>Likely just a coincidence, but perhaps cut them out again and see if that helps?? I find self-experimentation is the only way to figure this type of stuff out. Good luck...and feel better!</p>
