Hello everyone!
If heard Lima is getting cooler and cooler and with this weather everyone is getting the colds! Do you want the secret of how to avoid or shorten them? Here I have 3 natural ways you can feel better.
- Echinacea
This plant is one of the most known and studied to stimulate the immune system. Many people now use it for colds, infections and in general to increase the body’s defense.
It is recommended to take in capsules and for a period of 5 to 8 weeks to strengthen the immune system and fight respiratory infections. Then it is important to rest for 2 to 3 weeks. The dose depends on the size and age of the person, it is advisable to read the indications of the product.
2. Hot infusion
Prepare a hot infusion of ginger, honey and lemon:
Pinch of ginger
1 tbsp of honey
1/2 lemon juice
Boil the water with garlic and ginger, once its ready let it cool for a few minutes and add honey and lemon. It is better to take it hot.
3. Vaporizer
Use a vaporizer with eucalyptus essential oil. The steam will help you decongest the nasal passages and the eucalyptus oil is a powerful decongestant.
I hope these tips are useful and you can stay warm this winter. It is good to also have broths and soups at night to keep the body warm. For more advice follow me on Facebook and Instagram.
Have a nice day <3
