Homemade Cold Remedies

With it being cold and flu season, I thought it might be a good idea to share a couple of home remedies.


Elderberry- Stock full of Vitamin C, Elderberry has traditionally been used to fight against the flu and common cold.

Garlic, Honey and Lemon Tea
8 cloves crushed garlic, simmered in 2 c. of water for 20 minutes
Strain
Add into the strain water:
the juice from one lemon
honey to taste

Sip throughout the day, or drink 1/2 c. every hour.

This tea is very soothing for a sore throat.


Coconut Oil- Coconut oil in a wonderful immune booster! It also is known to boost your metabolism and has anti fungal properties.

Add a tablespoon of coconut oil to the above tea to add an immune boost.

Hoping every one stays warm and snuggly this cold winter day!
