6 All-Natural Remedies To Kick That Cold

March 27, 2014 by Larissa Coleman Leave a Comment

6 All Natural Cold Remedies

Spring is a season of rebirth and renewal, with flowers blooming and the world coming alive once again after the long, cold winter. However, the changing weather can also bring with it some unpleasant side effects, such as frequent temperature changes and unpredictable storms. These fluctuations in the climate can often lead to weakened immune systems, making us more susceptible to colds and sinus infections.

Thankfully, there are a variety of natural remedies that can help boost our immunity and kick those pesky colds to the curb. In today’s post, we’ve compiled a list of six all-natural remedies that are easy to make at home and are proven to help relieve cold and sinus symptoms.

The first remedy is a simple yet effective one: drink lots of fluids. Staying hydrated is crucial when you’re fighting off a cold or sinus infection, as it helps to loosen mucus and prevent dehydration. Try drinking warm water with lemon and honey, which can soothe a sore throat and boost your immunity with the antioxidants found in both ingredients.

The second remedy is a garlic and honey syrup. Garlic has antibacterial and antiviral properties, and honey is known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Simply mince 2-3 cloves of garlic and mix with 1 tablespoon of honey. Take this mixture twice a day for a week to help relieve cold and sinus symptoms.

The third remedy is a steam inhalation treatment. Boil a pot of water and pour it into a bowl. Add a few drops of essential oils such as eucalyptus, peppermint or tea tree oil. Cover your head with a towel and breathe in the steam for 10-15 minutes. The steam helps to loosen mucus and the essential oils have antibacterial properties that can help fight off infection.

The fourth remedy is a ginger tea. Ginger has anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce inflammation and ease a sore throat. Simply boil water and add fresh ginger root, then let it steep for 10-15 minutes. You can add honey and lemon for taste and added health benefits.

The fifth remedy is a saltwater gargle. Gargling with warm salt water can help soothe a sore throat and reduce inflammation. Mix 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of salt in a glass of warm water and gargle with it for 30 seconds, then spit it out. Repeat several times a day for relief.

The sixth and final remedy is a chicken soup. This classic comfort food is not only delicious but can also help relieve cold and sinus symptoms. Chicken soup is believed to have anti-inflammatory properties and can help thin mucus. Plus, the warm liquid can help soothe a sore throat and keep you hydrated.

By incorporating these all-natural remedies into your daily routine, you can help boost your immunity and relieve cold and sinus symptoms. Always remember to consult with your healthcare provider before trying any new remedies, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are taking medications.
