How to Cure the Common Cold Naturally

Viruses constantly surround us and it’s only when our immune systems are weakened that we become susceptible. Extra pressures at work/home, getting over-tired, not eating properly, constant worrying and even physically getting chilled can all contribute towards your immune system crumbling and your body unable to withstand an attack from a passing bacteria or virus.

Once your immune system is weakened and you have a bacterial or viral infection, your body’s own immunity kicks in.   Your immune system is likely to produce a fever (to help burn out the pathogens) or your body produces mucous (this time to flood out the pathogens).

The fever and mucous are good signs that your body is working well!  One of the worst things you can do is to “dry” a cold up as it keeps the virus and/or the bacteria incubating in your body until your immune system is running on empty and then, wham, you’re sick again!

If you do get sick, it’s a good idea to

• rest up
• stay warm
• keep well hydrated
• choose fresh fruit, fresh or steamed veggies
• have chicken soup
• avoid dairy, sugar, coffee, alcohol and junk food
• take some extra Vitamin C best source is my Best Ever Vitamin C tonic so your body has some energy to fight back
• suck Vitamin C tablets for a sore throat
• to swallow a teaspoon of Manuka honey twice a day.
• to chop up a garlic clove and some fresh ginger, squeeze the juice of a lemon, add a teaspoon of manuka honey, a dash of cayenne pepper and then mix all the ingredients in some boiling water and drink!

If you’d like a simple solution, then come for an Express Consultation and have a Super Immune Boost tonic blended specially for you.  All you need to do is take it x3-5 a day to get better quickly.  Alternatively if you’re well but would like a preventative measure you can take a daily dose to keep your immune system strong.
