Cold and Flu Season...Yay....:(

Gritty eyes, stuffy, runny nose, nausea, aches and pains...oh my! With cough and cold syrups being expensive, expansive (what to choose?) and not always safe, how do you make yourself feel better before you feel worse? (yes, chicken soup does boost your immunity and help you get better, sooner, BTW...)

Homemade Nasal Sprays and Eye Washes is a great start. When a cold has taken over your sinuses, give yourself a fighting chance by helping to break up that mucous and flush it out with this safe, easy, and homemade spray.

The Best Herbal Teas for a Cough or Cold can be a super lifesaver (and remember, for a flu, any type of sodium-reduced broth is a great remedy) can help you feel better. Believe it or not, you can treat a nasty cough by putting white sugar on a cut white onion, allowing the sugar to turn to syrup overnight, and then drinking the sugary onion syrup the next morning. Tried and true old-school remedy- that WORKS!
 
Hacking Cough? Don't Take Cough Medicine- Here's Why Cough medicine is actually WORSE for your symptoms than not taking it would be- read this before you hit that med aisle in your local grovery store.
 
PS- the best remedy for your cold, flu, and coughing symptoms is super simple and cheap- honey, lemon juice, and water. Stay hydrated, stay healing...stay WELL this season!
