I got another cold killing recepie. Take some tamarind leaves and boil them in water, all the juice of the leaves comes into the water. Gargle with the water, cold gone by the next morning

where do you get tamarind leaves from? Is it safe, some of the herbal remedies can be sketchy.

I know vit c is good for colds, but wasn't aware that honey was so helpful. We don't use very much honey, I guess maybe I'm going to have to purchase some!

My family doctor suggests to drink a lot of honey.

Drink honey alone or with beverages? Does it have to be real honey or can it be the generic store honey?
