LOL, I'm thinking 3 or 4 mints per day should do it!
The claims about preventing flu, and other illnesses is wild.
But, I did get the sinus spray to try.
I know People (yes, I do know people), who are swearing by it for their kids - to keep them healthy.
What the heck. I'm on a "stay healthy" kick since I quit smoking!

Go for it, Techno. You'll know soon enough if 3 or 4 is too many, I am sure. 
I am familiar with the Zinc lozenges for cold prevention, but the Xylitol is news to me...I hope it works for you; having the flu is nasty business.

Zinc actually made me nauseous as I recall...
Last Winter was the first time in years that I did not have bronchitis, and didn't have to use an inhaler.
I quit smoking last October.
I'm not sure if bronchitis was a result of smoking per se, or a consequence of standing outside in cold rainy windy weather shivering (while smoking)...
Hard to know, for sure Techno, but I am leaning towards the smoking as being the primary culprit. Since having quit, I have not had bronchitis either - and it always followed a cold or sinus thing with me. It is probably the most obvious benefit I have noticed - other than being able to swim one+ laps underwater now, something I couldn't do since I was a kid.
Oh, and my sense of taste is much improved. And that is good and bad, lol.

Hey Pokey
Hey Techno
Watching a movie and pokey-ing my head in
Hi Wharfster! I loved your post for LD
That was very sweet!
I tried to get back into swimming, but I still go one length of the pool, and then have to rest.
This would not be so bad, but there are several men & women in their 80's & above who swim lap after lap for about 2 hours or more every day, without stopping...and they kept mocking me for taking so many breaks.
I was humiliated...I feel like a 100 year old man in a 50 year old woman's body!!!
Hey Wharf,
What sort of movie are you watching, that leaves you pokey'ing in yer head?
oops - I misread. I guess you were pokey-ing yer head in to say hello.
I read it as pokeying in side your head.
I guess I need more nicotine!
