things: Eucalyptus oil

師走になりましたね。
December has come.

急に寒くなって、のどがちょっと… という方、多いのではないでしょうか? 
私もそんなにのどが強い方ではないので、乾燥している日中だけでなく寝る時もマスクをしています。
"It's getting cold suddenly, so my throat is... (cough)" Is that you? My throat is not too strong in the winter time, so I wear a mask not only in dry daytime but also while I sleep.

エヘン虫のイガイガを自覚しそうなその直前、そんな時には殺菌作用の高いユーカリオイルがお薦めです。
When just before I was aware of something weird at my throat, I was recommended eucalyptus oil whose bactericidal action is high.

マスクに1〜2滴垂らせば、抗菌作用の高いマスクになります。(写真はきき手じゃない方でやっていたので垂らし過ぎ!)
1-2 drops are onto a mask, then just wear it as regular. it's a high antibacterial action mask. (it's too much in a picture. I'm right-handed and was dropping it with my left hand!)

「オイルで風邪が治ったら医者はいらないよ〜ぅ」と思っているあなた。私も半信半疑でしたが、以前ニアウリで鼻の通りがよくなってから、他の精油にも興味津々。
"If those essential oils cures cold, we don't need doctor!" Do you think so? I also thought that before, but after Niaouli made my breath easier, I got interested in other oils too.

風邪が完治するには十分な栄養と休養が必要ですが、予防は基本のうがい・手洗いに加えてオイルという選択肢もあるようです。
Although sufficient nutrition and rest is the best medicine to get well completely. But oil can be one of choices for prevention in addition to gargling and washing hands as a basic.
