Thanks for sharing!I use it myself instead of the regular flu vaccination injections as I had a severe side effect from the conventional treatment. For the past two years I have not had any colds during winter. Even my doctor here in France uses it himself as he found side effects with the flu injections. I thought, if it’s good enough for him I’ll try it. So now I’m a convert and would use it for birds and cats if available. I also use arnica - l’occitane make a good foot cream with arnica, but watch out as they make two types and only one has the arnica.
