Are You The Master Of Mucus?

I thought my knowledge of this topic was excellent, but it's snot.   

Test yours and see if you can slither to the top of the heap!

70% I thought my knowledge of mucus was decent, but it'snot.

You are indeed better than I.     You are the baron of boogers.

All comes down to experience. Picked a lotta green in my day.

    All kidding aside, this quiz is a good resource to educate oneself this time of year, regarding a health-related issue.  I hope a few others take the time to explore the link I provided.

Can not remember if I related this before... here.
For over 40 years I had sinus infections, sometimes bronchitis and a few times pneumonia, headaches, coughing in day, coughing at night. It was something every year, all year long.  Sudafed, aspirin, steroidal nasal sprays, sinus flushes.  It would get especially bad in winter and even more so during wrestling seasons.  I think adrenaline would kick in during wrestling season, because I after the season would end I would get more sick.  In 1991 I had sinus surgery after all kinds of tests showed I had no allergies and the surgery did not change anything. Six years ago I talked to a acupuncturist and after examination she recommended I leave dairy products alone.  I stopped all dairy products then.  In six years, since avoiding dairy, I have not had a sinus infection or even been sick once.  If I do eat some cheese I have a stuffy nose the next day.  I drink almond milk now.  It is amazing.

Tom, we drink that stuff, too.  We occasionally eat some cheese or ice cream, but generally stay away from dairy because it disagrees with my bride.  I used to get sinus infections at least once per year, but I haven't had one since we quit drinking the moo juice.  I hadn't really made the connection until you posted your story.

"Tom, we drink that stuff, too."

Mucus, or almond milk?
