Natural Soothers For Sore Throats

Whenever the flu goes on a rampage around me, or whenever I feel it creeping up on me, I just up the ginger, garlic and chili in all food I prepare. Plenty of tea without sugar, but some honey and ginger. Get whole chicken, make chicken stock with the bones, feed most of the meat to kids, dogs, significant others or to the roaches. Add any more healthy ingredients to every serving, depending on cravings and/or tolerance. When already slimy, coughing and a bit clogged up, add a little dash of cognac to every bowl. Instead of looting the medicine cabinet, go for some raw ginger and some servings of wasabi and/or hot chili peppers. Like this, I would say most colds are absolutely skippable.

Chicken soup with hot red pepper and garlic works for me. Some say drink ice water after eating the soup, but I don't seem to need to do that. One time I got a cough and sore throat and even the chicken soup didn't help, so I took a tablespoon of honey and swallowed it trying to make sure that it covered my whole throat as I swallowed it and that it didn't just go down one side. I did that every 2 hours or so and the next day I was well. I honestly believe that these two things together will beat the deadly flu they keep saying we are going to get. But I would not stop my flu shots.

The quickest way to get over the flu or a cold was used by Moses, Jesus and Buddha. It is fasting. Mark Twain used fasting to get over the flu the quickest way. The reason that you do not have much appetite is your body telling you not to eat. Fasting will accelerate the cleansing that is already happening from the flu. http://bit.ly/flu-cure This is the fastest way to get over the flu.
