what's good for colds and flu
Garlic may be known to ward off vampires, but it can also ward off colds and flu. Garlic contains the immune-boosting compound allicin, also know to relieve cold and flu symptoms. Chop or crush 1-2 gloves of fresh garlic and âsteepâ them in hot water; then, drink it like a tea.
If you do come down with cold or flu symptoms (or feel them coming on), consider 3-4 cups of green tea per day to expedite ridding your body of those nasty bugs and give your bodyâs defenses an extra jolt. Ginger âs health benefits have long been touted.
