cold remedy teas

[Evanthe]

Got some good blends you would like to share?

[Ravencry]

I use a blend of mugwort, yarrow, dandelion, mint, rose hips, chamomile and eucalyptus Works quite well, but makes you drowsy, and use the restroom.

[presentcharisma]

i just love peppermint!!

[Symandinome]

lemon juice hot water cayenne pepper ginger garlic cinamon and sugar its disgusting but it works

[Ula]

I put ginger, cloves and honey in black tea.

[presentcharisma]

Syma- I have read that before but never tried it.

[Ghadamon]

You'll also want to eat lots of mushrooms, if you can exotic ones are better (best is shiitake/reishi). Reishi is tea only, so don't try to eat it...but shiitake is good for eating. They are anti-viral and anti-bacterial. So they help kill the cold quicker but don't necessarily help you feel better. In a pinch, generic Button (Agaricus) mushrooms will work.

Just make you better quicker =D

[Symandinome]

Present: Its called a Druids Herbal or came from a book called a Druids Herbal i dont recall but my mother used to give it me as a child.

I will have to try it next time I get sick, colds have a way of hanging on to me lol

[FireQueen]

Not a tea but an Ayurvedic remedy: suck on a few peppercorns to help clear catarrh and ease throat tightness and breathing.

Brightest blessings.

[presentcharisma]

Thanks for the reminder firequeen... I highly suggest the netti pot (which is also an ayurvedic thing)

[Demented Moon]

Spearmint tea.

It cures nausea, colds, sore throats and more.. It helps a lot when I am sick.

Recently just used a mix of Elder flowers, Yarrow Flowers, Mallow Flowers and peppermint and it worked better than my last suggestion.
