whenever im sick i like to make myself a cup of Hot Honey Lemon to sooth my through. nathan barato can vouch for this recipe.
ingredients:
-lemon
-honey
-hot water
take a cup of hot water. add honey until desired sweetness. add slices of lemon and press with spoon until desired flavour. remove lemon slices from cup because the peel could turn it bitter if left in for too long. |
lemon and honey are generally known as great remedies for colds:) with either milk or tea, as long as it's hot, it's great :) |

oh and don't rely on antibiotics heavily, yes true they kill bacteria and all, but they aren't that great in long run, they are just the easiest thing for doctor's to prescribe
from personal experience, I can have a cough for 2 months straight, without any kind of medicine |
nope. pretty much all prescription cough medications are classified as narcotics (prescription number on the label should start with an 'N'). there is no cough medication that is combined with antibiotics. if an antibiotic is required by the physician, a separate prescription is written for it. |

oh well that's even better, i thought the nauseousness came from the antibiotic of some sort !i'm super cautions of relying on antibiotics, but the coughs I was getting in recent year were just too much, so i took anything my doctor could suggest
anyhow, MK get better, the winter semester needs all the strength you could get :) |

Best remedy for cold and flu EVER
Though I take min 1/3 of a lemon, usually have and squeeze the hell out of it, add honey and hot water. |

best preventative/speedy recovery trick i've found:
-a bath as hot as you can stand (to sweat out the bug if you're already sick)
-oil of oragano....it's the best thing to speed up recovery and make sure you don't get sick (along with vitamin c of course). put 3 drops in a bit of water and do it like a shot. tastes like , i'm not gonna lie, but chase it with tea or something and you'll be fine. almost all the ppl i know and have been around have been sick but i've managed to escape it by taking a shot of this stuff when i feel the symptoms comming on. |

Yep. This works.
Sauna works too. Gets rid of all the gunk in your pores and stuff.
