The Cold Cure

FLU-Y? ME, TOO!!! Actually US, too. We're all feeling under it! It might be a cold or sinus (change in weather?) but it feels yucky, so we're going with my cold cure!

Yeah, conventional med says there isn't a cold cure... that you need to manage symptoms and wait it out, 7-10 days. But we haven't had a cold last more than 3 days in YEARS. I dunno. Maybe we're just lucky?

If you wanna get lucky, too -- heh -- try my simple cold cure go-to!

  • Cold Calm -- homeopathic for colds

  • Oscillococcinum -- if you suspect flu

  • Calcium Lactate -- excellent for the immune system (and bones -- I take at least 2 every day) These are purchased from a Standard Process distributor. My distributor is Veronica and you can email her here.

  • 30k Vit D3 -- every four hours for a day or two

  • 1400 mg Lipo C -- every couple of hours

  • 150 mg Zinc -- 30-50 mg every 3-4 hours

  • Sleep/rest

  • Detox Tea -- mixed with a little green if that’s your jam

  • with Local honey if you can get it; if you can't, we love this honey!

  • Energy Fizz for fun + B vitamins

  • And chicken noodle soup!!! <<< That’s the cure, y'all :-)

Delicious cold cure: Chicken Noodle Soup

Ingredients -- use as much organic as possible so there are no pesticides to interfere with the healing!

  • organic noodles from Costco (so cheap and no glyphosate)

  • pastured chicken (but use grocery store if that’s what you can get)

  • celery

  • mushrooms

  • fresh minced ginger

  • ditto garlic (we’ll put 4 heads in a pot of soup)

  • pre-packaged salad (Costco, $5 for a huge bag)

  • any spices you like

Salad? Yep!!! We get the big bags of organic Mediterranean salad from Costco and add a couple of cups to a pot of soup. It’s really tasty and pretty!

Mushrooms not required, of course, but if you love shrooms, always good in soup!

If you are NOT a liver fan but would love to add more of this superfood to your diet, cook, then mush in the Cuisinart or blender and add to a big pot of soup. You won’t know it’s in there and you get all the good!

Not doing anything else today! I even put a space heater on this morning to get rid of the chill in my bones. Feeling good, got my fizz and Netflix clicker. I'm set!


Here are the other supplements I take, if you want to compare brands!


What do you use for a cold cure?

Tell me -- I'm always looking for new healing ideas!!!
