It's the sugar!! Sorry, but the junk food has got to go! These highly processed foods contain bad oils, empty calories, and chemicals. Worse, they lack the nutrition we need to maintain our health. Eliminating the use of refined white sugar and flour altogether is highly important. Fighting colds a lot? Consider that eating or drinking 100 grams (8 tsp.) of sugar, the equivalent of one 12-ounce can of soda, can reduce the ability of white blood cells to kill germs by forty percent. The immune-suppressing effect of sugar starts less than thirty minutes after ingestion and may last for five hours. In contrast, the ingestion of complex carbohydrates, or starches, which are low glycemic, has no effect on the immune system.

Every time I drink a Baskin Robbins Chocolate milk Shake, I come down with a Sinus infection and flu like symptoms. (chills, headache). Usually within twenty four hours. I never realized it was the shake until now.

Dreyer's Rocky Road Ice Cream is the cause of my sinus infection. I ate too much of it last year and the symptoms worsen every time I eat it. Of course, I've toned it down quite a bit. Thanks for the natural remedies suggested.

wow ...I never knew there was a link between the Baskin Robbins ice cream and sinus infections. I thought it was only me. Every time I have a decaf cappuccino blast my throat gets really sore and scratchy and I am sick for several days. I had one the other day too and now I have a horrible sinus infection my face hurts sooo bad and I can't wait for the antibiotics to start working.

I recently was in Malaysia, and I ate two big scopes of Baskin Robbins cherry's gracia ice cream. The week and a half before I felt fine, but the last few days there I suddenly became ill. I had not been sick in years. I originally thought it was because that was my first time in another country, but why didn't I get sick after only a few days. I developed flu like symptoms after 24 hours of eating the ice cream.

I haven't had ice cream in years, had ice cream the last three days in a row from Mcdonalds and today I have the biggest meanest sinus infection of all time.

You've just made me discover why my nose infection is recurrent. Ice-cream... is a very possible cause!?!? Golden Gay Times, Bulla and Peters icecreams all seem to affect me!! My nose is inflammed, sore, and it irritates something terrible! Have just started ACV today after discovering your website last week...here i go.

This might just be a coincidence. I NEVER eat ice cream!!!! But the other day I felt like indulging and I ate a lot of mint ice cream. It wasn't baskin robbins. That night my husband said he thought I might have fever. I felt fine so I didn't really pay attention. The next morning I woke up with the worst sinus infection ever!!! My head is about to explode and I am very congested. I read this article and I can't believe the coincidence.

Just recently I have been looking for natural remedies to my day to day issues I just can't get rid of. Today, I feel congested and I'm coughing up things I shouldn't have to. After reading your webpage on Sinus Infections, I realized I did have ice cream two days ago. I ate two fat boy ice cream sandwiches on Sunday and now on Tuesday I feel so congested. Interesting tip, and keep them coming.

I have definitely seen a connection between Baskin Robbins ice-cream and my sinus problems. Three times I've traced the onset of my sinus infection to that particular ice cream.Over this past year I have been building my immune system by taking oil of oregano, ACV and other vitamins. However,after I came down with flu-like symptoms with-in twenty-four hours of eating it the last time, I poured hydrogen peroxide in both my ears and stopped it in its track.

Was very interested in sinus attacks after ice cream, I suffer terrible sinus & it has just occured to me that more so when I eat ice cream, for a while there I would eat it every night after my main meal. i am going to try the apple cider, as I quite often go through 1-2 pkts of sinus tabs a week & it can't be any good for me. Also I am a great believer in colloidal silver, since taking it I have hardly had a cold & if I get the early signs of a cold it doesn't turn into a cold.

Sinus infections can begin with all dairy, not just ice cream, included are cheese, milk, and yogurt to name a few. I've had instances of all.

This is the most extraordinary thing I've encountered (and I'm already familiar with many complemetary therapies) I've had a very severe sinus infection for over 5 weeks, which has not responded to 5 different antibiotics. It started when my daughter had Whooping Cough, so I thought it had been caused by the pertussis bacteria. I now realise from your website that it was due to ice cream, which I don't normally eat but was buying regularly for my daughter when she was sick (and eating loads myself!) I've just tried a strong solution of ACV in water and can breathe for the 1st time in weeks.I thought I was going to have to have surgery. The words thank you have never seemed so inadequate (especially as so many sites are just out to sell you their cures not just share them as you do).
