Warm weather has said goodbye to us and cold winter is setting in. Every day we see many people sneezing and coughing, but with sadness we realize that the cold is slowly spreading to us as well. Our head hurts and our throat feels scratchy.
Today we’ll talk about how to heal using remedies we commonly have at home. There’s no need to treat everything with pharmaceutical pills, because they contain a lot of chemicals. From birth nature has already endowed us with a strong mechanism that protects us from diseases of various kinds – the immune system. It is very important that you do not take steps that would disrupt the normal functioning of the immune system.
How to cure a cold
Our temperature rises a little and we already have a tendency to lower it, but that is a mistake. The body raises the temperature because it tries to destroy bacteria and viruses; only reduce it if it rises above 38 degrees.
It’s best to treat yourself with natural remedies. We recommend drinking warm ginger tea with lemon, and optionally add a teaspoon of honey. Hot tea contains tannins – substances that prevent the formation of mucus. The enzymes in honey fight harmful bacteria. Lemon, which contains a lot of vitamin C, works as an antiseptic.
Home raspberries also fight colds well. They contain salicylic acid, which reduces inflammation and prevents pathogenic microorganisms from entering the body. Finally, we’ll tell you about the secret of a folk remedy that effectively tackles colds and can even help you get rid of bronchitis.
