I don't have axcess to any of my usual lab tools right now, but in one
of my medicineless periods I figured that plants that
grow in damp cool places have evolved some defenses against fungi, or
they would just cease to exist.
Anyway i tried celery and found that if I eat a stalk, it is capable
of stopping my heartburn in it's tracks.
Tasty and lots of fiber too.

My hypothesis, since one rarely sees mold on celery,  is that it is
likely it contains a salacidic acid varient, and prehaps even a furon,
anyway it
seems to dehydrate and go limp rather than turn to mush, so it
apparently contains it's own antimicrobial.
So I thought I would try celery juice in an irrigation solution so I
wash it carefully with Dawn, rinse, and then cut it into 1/4 inch
slices and soak a few minutes in 3% peroxide and 4% acidic acid.
(vinegar),
(just because I don't want to introduce something from the celery
feild that does not bother the celery but might bother me into my
nose,)
then I rinse with boiled water and blend it into pulp adding a couple
of ozs of boiled water, and strain through a tea strainer, then pour
it into a
sterilized squeeze bottle.
Spray 5 or 6 times in each nostril and wait a few minutes to blow you
nose. Blow and repeat.

Somehow I don't see douple blind placebo controled trials being done
on celery juice, but like I said,  it is nice., if you have gotten the
vinegar and preroxide off it seems to premote detachment of the bugs
without the burning of mint or cinnimon.  if the vinegar and peroxide
make it into the mix, the solution burns raw tissue a bit, but the
trace makes it more agressive.

I recently read that the Egyptions used celery and the Indians used
coleus (forskohlii), that purple plant that gran used to grow in shady
borders.

I am still looking for some garlic mustard plants if anyone runs
across them. Any plant that is capable of killing the pretty much all
the fungus in a forest exudes some pretty powerful antifungals
indeed.
