HOME REMEDY: for colds, flus and tickles in the throat.
About 20 years ago, when I was in my mid-teens, I was suffering from a serious cold and a deep mucus-y cough the had developed from when I had the flu...it had been going on for a few weeks and nothing my doctor prescribed had a lasting effect on me. I was so tired and frustrated. The antibiotics would alleviate some of my symptoms, but once I ran the course of the medication, my symptoms would come back...not to mention the side effects of antibiotics that my body would have from taking those drugs.Then one day, my mom and I were talking with my Aunt and she immediately gave my mom a few home remedies to make... of which, I have found this one to be the MOST helpful. Now, when I feel a hint of a cold, scratchy throat, flu, etc coming on, I immediately make this paste and take 2-3 times a day, until I feel better.This remedy has an all-star line up of ingredients:Turmeric Powder | Which has a soothing action on respiratory ailments such as cough and asthma. It also acts as a natural anti-bacterial, and is a powerful source of fiber, vitamin C, B6, niacin, iron, magnesium, potassium, manganese, omega 3 fatty-acids, and phytosterols.Lemon Juice | Because of its high vitamin C content, it is a great immune system booster. Not to mention, it is also a good source of vitamin B6, potassium, folic acid and it to also has natural antibacterial properties.
