Tammy’s Natural Health Cold and Flu Remedy

Natural-cold-and-flu-fighters

Tis the season.  Cold and flu season….  that is.   Many of you may know that I’m a big fan of natural and alternative health remedies, techniques, etc.  I rarely get full blown sick personally but this is what I do if I start to feel a little unwell or under the weather.  Just got over “under the weather” following my recent vacation and thought I would share with you my “Top Secret” Cold and Flu Remedy.

Tammy’s Natural Health Cold and Flu Remedy

Boil a 1/2 a lemon (with rind) in a cup and a half of water until the pulp starts to come out.  Add a pinch of cayenne pepper.  Drink it down right before bed and cover yourself with blankets.  You will sweat like crazy and likely feel a little better in the morning.

Extras:  Add a little stevia, honey, (Not on the HCG Diet) booze (Not on P2), or lobelia tincture.

Disclaimer:  See your Dr. if you are THAT sick.

Another favorite cold and flu remedy of mine is to take  baking soda with vitamin C in orange juice or lemonade right when you first start to get sick.  It’s a quick way to alkalize and often kicks the cold or flu right out before it starts.

Drink 2-4 cups Echinacea tea daily right when you first start to feel the cold or flu coming on.

As the Author of the HCG Diet Gourmet Cookbook and the HCG Diet Gourmet Cookbook Vol. 2,  I actually became interested in these natural health remedies around the time I discovered the HCG Diet.  Stay tuned and check in for more health and wellness info and home remedies that work.

    Thank God and Tammy for this fantastic cookbook! It got me through 70 days on the second “phase” of HcG protocol and I really enjoyed every tasty meal! Lots of ideas on how to make the select few ingredients that are permitted taste so good. Everything was very easy to prepare and the directions are clear and precise.This is the book you want to have on your kitchen counter before you even THINK about doing the weight loss program. It will ensure you succeed.The helpful tips on the actual protocol and the way to make phase 2 recipes able to be used on the next phase was a nice bonus.Thank you again Tammy! I hope you have another book dedicated to the next phase of the program coming soon because I will be first in line!
