Beating The Cold..

11/3/2014

1 Comment

 
Yes, I have one... a cold! It happens to everyone and is relatively normal because the body can never build up enough resistance to all the viruses that can cause the common cold.
All we need to know is how to cure it naturally and let nature do its job. So, we know it's a viral infection, means we want to get as much anti-viral foods into our system as possible. What always helps and what I'm having right now is loads and loads of organic lemons, ginger, turmeric, garlic.. loads!

Try this immune-boosting and anti-viral hot drink:

2 organic lemon
1 tbsp freshly grated ginger
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
Hint of black pepper (to potentiate turmeric)
Manuka honey to taste (or other organic honey)

Boil ginger, turmeric and pepper with 600ml of water, let simmer for 10 minutes. Squeeze lemons into a jug and add the hot liquid when ready. Enjoy with a bit of honey to your liking. Have this at least 4 times a day at the onset of your cold and you will be breathing freely again in no time :)

That's it for today, I'm going to have another cup and some rest.
