Got a Cold - try this

I have tried this - to prevent colds I use the herb, Echinachea Purpurea - it is sold in health stores, but it helps best if one takes before getting a cold, especially during influenza seasons. I missed it, so I got a real cold - had to take step 2 - Garlic! It has helped me a lot. If you think it is too strong when raw, cut the clove in small pieces in a cup and pour on hot water and let it cool - it works too.. It is good to eat only fresh fruits and berries in the beginning - especially if you have fever. I hope you get well fast.. Tea with cinnamon and honey - not too hot, about +40C to save the honey - can also help..
'Largest ever clinical study into echinacea finds herbal remedy can protect against colds' the Daily Mail advises. However, the research they are reporting on has some significant flaws…

A friend of my husband's got muddled one day and told him to try euthanasia for his cold! That would be a sure cure wouldn't it?

I hope he did not try. Euthanasia anyway, surely cures any kind of disease.

@buenavida Yes, I'm convinced of that also but there are times when we need other things.

I use garlic a lot in the kitchen, it's a natural antibiotic. I had a cold two times since I got married 48 years ago.

Great! I should remember to use more garlic to avoid health problems - It is supposed to prevent high blood pressure too.. I have been taking garlic tablets, but maybe we need the real thing sometimes..

@LadyDuck My mom said a long time ago it is good for avoiding blood pressure.. I guess she had heard from her mom.. My grandma´s doctor said onion or garlic is very healthy

@buenavida Both my husband and I have low blood pressure, I do not know if it comes from garlic.

Why not try this and see if you can avoid colds and heal them if you get them ??
