Hello beautiful people,how are you all,hope you guys are doing fine,for me it's been an hectic week for me,but am still glad and still grateful.
About this contest, I'll like to take part in the topic that says
When you are sick.What home remedy gets you back to your feet the quickest.Explain how it works.
Personally,i don't enjoy being sick at all and am sure alot of people hate being sick, probably I would have tolerated it when i was much younger.
But for now and as a mother i intentionally try as much as possible to avoid falling sick, i always long to stay strong for my kids because am all they've got .
But as human most time we can't really prevent ourselves from falling sick.
Presently,i see myself battlering with common cold.
It symptoms are, running nose, fever, headache, throat irritation,body ache and cough sometimes with or without phlegm.
When i noticed these symptoms the best home remedies i turn to is
-Warm Water and bitter kola
- Bitter kola
It does not require a lot of effort but it's highly effective and with lots of health benefits.
I try as much as possible to take warm water as much as possible more than my usual intake for a day.
Image by me.
I usually take one or two pieces of bitter kola depending on how severe the cold/flu was .
The warm water keeps me from dehydration
and helps in flushing out toxins from my system while the bitter kola can be eaten raw.
In my country bitter kola has been used to fight infections wether viral or bacterial infection, it's very effective in eliminating cough and it health benefits is numerous.
I grew up to see my parents having it at home and I intentionally keep it in my house incase of emergency.
