Acupressure on your nostril it helps open up the nose a bit. Let me see if I can find an example.

I don't have a cough and I am allergic to Cayenne
Or you could try hydrogen peroxide in your ears. I've used that at the first sign of symptoms and next day felt 100% better.
How do I do that
How long do I leave it in for
Use a dropper, drop several drops into your ear, leave it in for 10-15 mins. You'll know when because the bubbling will almost completely stop. Then drain into a cotton ball and repeat on the other ear.
Use oregano oil or fresh in your tea.
soak in a bath with baking soda and Epson salt. Onions on the bottom of your feet with socks all night long. Sip frequently on peppermint tea.
I have always been scared of Epsom salt baths due to the vaginal area, won't it effect my pH or burn?
Not at all! You can't tell a difference in the water at all.
no, but if you are concerned with that you can add a little but of acv for balance. I just don't know if the angel will be too much with the nausea
Vitamin c
Lemon water with honey
I have def been doing lemon water with tea and organic honey
Thats what my daughter takes Also lemon tea with honey
Hope you feel better fast
Ty so much
Elderberry syrup is good for the flu
Where can I get that?
Health food stores, it's easy to make but store bought might be easier for now since your sick. Wellness mamas recipe is what I follow
CVS sells it now. Sambucol brand
Elderberry syrup kills 10 strains of the flu With no known side effects. Take daily as needed, it's also an immune builder that can be used 2-5 days a week

Oil of oregano and elderberry to strengthen immune system.
When u do the neti pot keep your mouth open and breath through it. That keeps anything from running down your throat. Take EV coconut oil 1 tbs a day on toast eat a clove of garlic and up your vitaminc. That's what I did last time I had it and it was gone in 3 days plus I really didn't feel bad at all. EV coconut oil has properties that kill the flu virus. They gave me tamiflu also and I'm the same no way will I take it.
I think I am going to try a steam wassh cloth Instead of netti pot I can't even eat toast right now my throat feels like sand paper, I ha e been doing chicken broth
Melt the coconut oil in hot tea.
Essential oils and elderberry syrup. Elderberry is known to take 4 days off of the flu and use immune system boosting oils
When I had the flu, I did oil of oregano in a glass of water. I believe 1 drop. It's pretty strong. I also crushed garlic and placed in a spoon and covered with honey and ate the whole spoonful and drank a glass of water after. And I drank lots of bone broth.. All mothers orders it took a little bit but I got over it with no meds.
Love bone broth so good for you
really is! Awesome healing properties!
Also I've seen a lot of people recommend the half of an onion on nightstand.. I don't know anything about that but if it pulls sickness out of the air, could be helpful
I'll try
Can you use colloidal silver? It will loosen your sinuses and help heal you faster feel better!!
I wish I don't have it and can barely walk let one drive, maybe I can get my fiance to get it after work tomorrow where can I get it
Yes convince him to go get it it will save your life! Lol that's how I feel about it at least
Chaga tea Google it
Cut an onion in half and place it as close to your bedside (pillow) as possible.
I like slicing them up and placing them on the bottom of my feet, I can literally feel my blood tingling hours after I've done it and the next morning I feel so much more refreshed!!
Im right there with ya, I do both!!! A few people had already suggested the socks... A cut onion in the room is supposed to clean the air of all the cooties ; )
SAMBUSCUS!!!!
Eucalyptus in the shower will clear up your sinuses.
Do you have any essential oils on hand? Diffusing hot oils helps greatly with congestion.
No I don't I wish
I put eucalyptus oil on my wrist too! Breath it in all day. I use a humidifier also. I like to eat really spicy hot foods too. Like hot and sour Chinese soup, Indian curry etc. Lots of water a natural decongestant. Rest.
Hot shower... Hit as you can stand it all on the top of your head and face. It will help the congestion in your head move. Also will help the congestion in your chest.
That's what I want to do as well, but I had surgery on my meniscus and the shower makes me scared, I have to have my SO stand in it with me so I don't fall
I have a sinus infection right now and my head is whomping but the shower helped and it lasted quite a while. Maybe just steam? Boil some water and make a tent over your head and the pot (after you take it off the heat) Just sit like that for a few. Easier than putting 2 people in the shower
Love that idea, going to try it ty
If you have it you can also add a drop or two of some eucalyptus oil to some coconut oil (Id start with 1) and rub on your chest neck and back. It will open you up. Careful.. That is STRONG stuff!!
Where do I get essential oils
Onion cut up in sock over night.
caren , look into 1000mg of Liposomal Vit C and Zinc supplements. Good luck.
Why no tamaflu? I'm very curious, we all just had the flu and never took it but heard bad things about it. I'd like to know more
I am. Epileptic and the side effects can cause seizures
Coconut water for electrolytes and Zarabees should be safe for you to take.
High doses C andD. Garlic. Elderberry and ACV tonics. Works like a charm for me
Lemon tea with honey and cayenne pepper to taste will unblock the sinus. I also use 10+ minuka honey from New Zealand. Can purchase from health food store.
I did the lemon tea and honey all night, throat feels much better. Going to do warm compresses on my sinuses today for relief
Chopped spring onion infused in honey, leave in press when you get up in morning take spoonful when required..
better learn the netti pot life saver
Get yourself some turmeric ginger Tulsi tea from organic india
I have a ton of organic tumeric in my freezer, what do I do with it
Put a huge chunk of it in water with ginger peppercorns and cloves boil simmer drink. Also if you have powdered ginger make a ginger bath. As hot as you can stand. Soak for at least 10 min. Hop out get dressed and under the covers you will continue to sweat.
I do have ginger powder will try ty
I haven't been sick since doing Organic Sulfur Crystals. This is an amazing element that is missing in our diet since the government has been allowing the use of chemical herbicides, pesticides, and fertilizers. The body heals when given the right tools. Patrick McGean is the director of the Organic Sulfur Crystal Cellular Matrix Study. Do some research-you will be pleasantly surprised. His number is 1-801-290-2013.
Elderberry
i use alkohol. İt's a nasal wash but it's so much easier to use than neti. Much more comfortable. Don't know why but i like it. $10 at walgreens. İ'm fighting an awful sinus infection right now. İ think i'm finally getting over it but i've been cleaning my sinuses out a couple times a day...
Staihht alcohol
I just woke up misssserable again with my sinuses
I wish I could do kale, my stomach hates it, I was sick for days after
colloidal silver and grapefruit seed extract are natural antibiotics
Chop up some Ginger Root Tea and simmer it for 10 minutes in water... Strain it, let it cool a bit... Then add 2T of raw honey and the juice of an organic lemon or two... Drink this and an hour later drink another cup. This stuff works.
Have not read all. Chewing raw garlic clears sinuses. Vinegar honey cayenne ginger tea fixes everything
