It is all too common for people to seek medication first when they get sick instead of trying to cure it naturally. Most of us have made it a habit to seek out chemicalized answers to our illnesses through over the counter medications. What if you could break the habit?
What if you had the remedies you needed to feel better right in your kitchen cabinets? What if you could cure your illness simply by staying home? Curing your cold or flu can be done by any number of better methods!
Armageddon Paydays did you know that scientists have actually proven the health benefits of chicken soup? Instead of starting out with a pharmacy bought antihistamine or decongestant when you get sick, you should be reaching out for Mom’s homemade chicken soup because the meat and vegetables contained in the soup are full of nutrients and minerals that you need to keep your body strong enough to fight off the cold or flu that is making you feel less than your best.
Garlic is a great and healthy addition to your diet. To get better quickly, take 1500 mgs of garlic a day and wave good-bye to your cold! You can either eat a clove of garlic or take a 500 mg supplement—nutritionally they’re about the same. This can be accomplished by either taking a tablet of garlic or by including a clove of garlic into your meals at least three times a day. Thankfully adding garlic to your meals is easy and garlic is incredibly inexpensive—keeping garlic cloves on hand is easy! Don’t carry your 1500mgs a day intake longer than five days. If your symptoms haven’t cleared up by then you should call your doctor.
Learn to like steam. Why spend a bunch of money on decongestants when long showers and baths are just as effective? The steam will help clear up your sinuses which will help you breathe. To get better you need to get lots of rest and the heat from the water will relax your muscles which will make it easier to rest. Putting a towel over your head and aiming your face at some steaming water is a good alternative to taking a long shower or bath. The steam is directed toward your face by the sides of the towel which also help keep the water from cooling too quickly. Ridding your sinuses of discharge is made a lot easier by the breathing in of steam.
