Cold Remedy

<< < (4/5) > >>

Olanigw (Pekane):
I drink lots of water and gag down a shot of raw apple cider vinegar every morning starting at the first sign of a cold.

Sore throat gets a mix of 1oz cheap whiskey, .5oz honey and .5oz lemon juice.

If my lungs get tight I drink mullein tea.  If they lock up I smoke a couple hits of my mullein smoking mix.

JoJoDapyro:
What is in the smoking mix? Sounds like something my wife would really take to. She swears that when she is sick a Menthol works wonders. I agree with the Vinegar, When I was sick the last time I drank some pickle brine, I am better, and the 3 people that had it before me aren't yet.

Olanigw (Pekane):
3 parts mullein, 1 part coltsfoot by weight.  I spritz with diluted maple syrup to make it sweeter.

Mullein opens and soothes the bronchioles, coltsfoot stimulates a strong cough.

H Rhodes:
staghorn sumac tea.  It is supposed to be jammed with vitamin C and is a natural source of zinc.
