Warm weather has bid us farewell and cold winter is coming. Every day we see many people sneezing and coughing, and, sadly, we are beginning to catch colds ourselves. Our heads hurt and our throats are scratchy.
Today we’ll talk about how to cure yourself using remedies we commonly have at home. There is no need to treat everything with pharmaceutical pills, because they contain a lot of chemicals. From birth, nature has endowed us with a powerful mechanism that protects us from various diseases – the immune system.
It is very important that you do not take steps that would disrupt the normal functioning of the immune system.
Our temperature rises a little and we already have the tendency to lower it, but that’s a mistake. The body raises the temperature because it is trying to destroy bacteria and viruses; lower it only if it rises above 38 degrees.
It is best to treat yourself with natural remedies. We recommend drinking warm ginger tea with lemon, or add a teaspoon of honey. Hot tea contains tannins – substances that prevent mucus formation. The enzymes in honey fight harmful bacteria.
Lemon, which contains a lot of vitamin C, acts as an antiseptic.
Home-grown 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 deals with colds and can even help you get rid of bronchitis.
Ingredients:
- 250 ml of fresh milk
- 1 teaspoon of butter (cocoa butter can also be used)
- 1 teaspoon of honey
- 1 egg yolk
- A quarter teaspoon of baking soda
Preparation:
- Bring the milk to a boil and let it cool. Add the honey and butter and mix well.
- Add the baking soda and the egg yolk to the milk mixture and mix again.
- If you wish, you can add 1 teaspoon of brandy.
Each day before bed drink 50 ml of this mixture; the effect will be noticeable in just one day.
