A Pox on Mine House

[English Chick]

Sorry to hear you and the family are ill...it's a bummer...for me and mine I use Pure Honey Bee Propolis...works a treat. I get mine fom the health store...try it you will be amazed.. Another old remedy i SWEAR by is a peeled onion cut in half and leave one half on a small saucer/plate on your kitchen window... apparently (and scientifically proven) its helps to cure colds/flu etc..the airbourne germs migrate towards the onion. When the onion is completely dried out throw it away and use a fresh half. Suggest putting one half in every room if the whole family are ill. Surprisingly the house does not smell of onion after about an hour! Works for me.

Try it and let me know..... (((HUGS)))

Oh man, these people are trying to kill you! lol I read that garlic thing in MEN this month but can NOT imagine doing it! YUCK!
Get some 30x aconite at the herbal/health food store. Mix 1 pill with 4 oz of water it just needs dumped every day and re mixed.
Take about a tsp. every 1/2 hour till you feel even the least better. Stir well between doses. Then cut back to every couple of hours. If you go more than 6 doses and feel absolutely no better it's the wrong remedy....try agin. lol
Good luck!

This is supposed to 100% guaranteed work. Smear Vick's Vaporub on the soles of your feet and put socks on.
I just bought a big jar for this winter. It also stops coughing.

I use those little tea light candle things where you put oil or smelly stuff up top. I use eucalyptus or Camphor oil in some water, put that in the bathroom, get the room all nice and steamy and soak in a nice hot tub - then pack up and go to bed!

I also put a drop or two near the top of the bed, above the head - if the noses are stuffy - helps to keep them clear through the night.

Hope you feel better soon.

When I was a child almost all mother's used to rub VapoRub on our chests when we had a cold. Once my Mom took me to the doctor and he told her "the next time you feel compelled to rub Vick's on something rub it on her a**, at least it won't draw in the cold and give her pneumonia!" LOL That was back when the family doctor could say anything to you.

Rosemary for strep..... I have heard said that tests have shown it more effective in killing strep than antibiotics. You just take a couple teaspoons and make a cup of tea... gargle with it until you get down to the last bit.... add some water and drink the weak tea. I do this whenever I feel a sore throat coming on and it always clears it up. I also found it relieves the pain of full blown strep. (I first tried this remedy when I already had strep)

(edited to add...... avoid rosemary when pregnant.... something about miscarriage, but honestly, I ate it all the time when I was pregnant

)
