Nature’s Flu Shot

Got this natural remedy recipe from my sister, and just in time as I’ve been coughing for the last three days. Just took my first dose and it is intense! My sister says she likes the way it tastes, and it was kind of good. It tastes better than the other home remedy I’ve tried, called Russian Penicillin.

• juice of 6 fresh lemons
• 1 bulb of garlic (my sister says she used 4 cloves, I used 7)
• 1 tbsp honey
• 1/2 tsp cayenne
• 2 tsp ground ginger
• pineapple juice

Put all ingredients except the pineapple juice in a blender and blend until smooth. Add enough pineapple juice to make 1 quart (32 ounces) of liquid. At the first sign of cold or flu symptoms, take 1 cup every 3-4 hours until flu symptoms are gone.

This remedy is not a medical treatment. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult a physician.
