Puffy Face: Day 3

Day 3: My face is getting better:

Still not completely back to normal, but definitely a big improvement today- mostly gone, I would say. It is much less sore to the touch, as well. If I remember correctly, when this happened over the summer, it took about 1 week to go away. I think it's going away more quickly this time.

Yesterday I started taking chlorophyll, which is a natural remedy for cleansing the blood and killing viruses. When my dad was diagnosed with Bell's palsy (paralysis of the facial muscles on one side of the face- his face muscles just stopped working one day!), he took chlorophyll and it went away in one week, while some people deal with it for years or sometimes forever. Anyway, chlorophyll is good for anything virus-related. This is the first time I've bought it and taken it myself, so needless to say I was a little scared to drink this:

It is just dark green concentrated liquid that you add to juice or water. It doesn't have much flavor (luckily) when it is added to water, only just a slight grassy flavor...sounds gross, but really not bad. Hopefully I don't turn green or else I really will look like a monster!

Have a happy Thanksgiving tomorrow!

  1. Could be worse... at least it's not polyjuice potion! :)

  2. Chlorophyll works for me every time! I've been taking it since I started getting sick two days ago, and I'm feeling way better!! I have to take the capsules though, since the liquid version is a bit too much for me. See you soon!
