Cold's
and Flu's Home Remedies
 |
Treating
colds and flu's with caraway seeds - This remedy is for
a running nose. Roast 1 tablespoon of black caraway seeds and
then blend into a power. Sniff a pinch of the powder a few times
several times a day. |
| Treating
colds and flu's with honey - Mix together 1 tablespoon of
honey and 1/3 a teaspoon of turmeric powder. Lick this mixture
off a spoon 3 times daily. |
|
 |
Treating
colds and flu's with milk cream - Mix half a teaspoon of
milk cream with a pinch of baking soda and take. Take this mixture
3 times a day to get rid of cold's or flu's. |
| Treating
colds and flu's with onions - Peel and cut an onion in half.
Grind or grate the half onion and mix in as much honey as you
need to get it down. It's not very pleasant tasting but it does
help cure a cold or flu. |
|
 |
Treating
colds and flu's with Vitamin C - Vitamin C helps with cold
symptoms including coughing, sneezing. The best source of vitamin
C is always found in fresh fruit. Citrus fruit is very high
in vitamin C and can be made into a healthy drink that will
help fight that cold. Fruits that are high in Vitamin C include
- orange, kiwi fruit, pineapple, seedless grapes, fresh ginger,
banana, pink grapefruit and cantaloupe. |
| Treating
colds and flu's with Zinc - Zinc can dramatically reduce
symptoms such as a dry irritated throat. I would suggest buying
zinc lozenges at the supermarket. These have a more pleasant
taste. |
|
| Rest and relax.
Resting lets you put all your energy into getting well. Take
a day or two off work if you need to. Your regular daily routine
can be braining. When your not feeling well your concentration
is down and it will take you double the time to do things than
it normally would, so rest and relax. |
 |
Treating colds
and flu's with Chicken Soup - Chicken soup is a long time
remedy that is now a proven fact. A cup of hot chicken soup
can help to unclog your nasal passages. What comes out when
you blow your nose is the first line of defense in removing
germs from your system. |
| Treating colds
and flu's with Water - Water is vital in the healing of
a cold. You must drink between 6 to 8 glasses of water a day.
Water will help replace important fluids lost during a cold
and help flush out impurities that may be preying on your system. |
 |
 |
Treating colds
and flu's with Salt - Use salt water to relieve an irritated
throat by gargling morning, noon and night or whenever it hurts.
Fill a glass with warm water and mix in 1 teaspoon of salt. |
| Hot showers
- Taking a hot shower can help clear congestion. Alternatively
you can place a bowl on the table with cover your head and the
bowl with a towel. Add really hot bowling water to the bowl
and inhale the steam. This will also help your cough by moistening
your dry throat. |

In a saucepan boil together a can of coke, a squeeze of lemon
juice and some ginger. Let it cool down before you drink it. You
will only need this once but if you want more it won't hurt.
