Question:
Shez, My grandmother taught me to score the rind with a knife and leave them in the ade. This will keep you from accidentally drinking rind, which scratches going down. Mom used your way but strained the rind off before serving and dried them for potpourri.
I do much the same thing, I like the scent of lemons its so clean , I am now just harvesting my Lavender I have bushes and bushes full of it, and some of that will go for Potpourri to. I save the rind of oranges for the same reason. and dry the best rose petals, jasmine flowers, and honeysuckle. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text — –cerista pill and thrills and daffodils will kill o}- How do you make old fashion lemonaid?

I never heard of that one, but the next time I’m sick I will give it a try. I usually make a tea from Echinacea and it works well. Findalis

I can’t shake this terrible cold…..any suggestions? Soya Lethicin. It’s a natural supplement which has an anti viral effect. Kinda looks like giant vitamin E pills. It does work, though. Morgan
Zinc lozenges have helped me, particularly with a sore throat type cold. If it seems like it has lasted a long time it might be allergies–mine are terrible this year from all the wet weather and plant growth.

I like to get rid of a cold by calling off work and laying around the house in my PJs complaining to my roomates about how crappy I feel (while at the same time asking them to get me things…EX. a drink, slippers, ect…then they all get pissed off at me and go away or avoid me… and I get my tissues, blanky, and pillow and set up base camp on my couch…I live on the couch for approx. 2-3 days or until I bore the cold to death… It doesn’t make the cold go away any faster…but it makes me feel better… Blessed Be… Kate
Hahahahahaha! A kindred spirit!
Response:
I’d suggest a blend of camomile, anise, clove, damiana, black tea and sweetener. Lemon balm or another member of the mint family can be used to soften the flavor. Garlic in your meals, as well as echinacea can help. They both contain chemicals which are known and proven antiviral and antibiotic. Good luck. If you have any questions, send an e-mail to me with a descriptions of the symptoms, and I’ll try to suggest something…. Kirk

Response:
Eat vitamin C like it is going out of style. At least 5000 mg (5 grams) a day. I have that same nasty shit and this seems to be working.
And, too much of it will give you ‘NASTY SHITS’. If the urine is a nice, fluorescent green color, you’ve had enough. Over 1000 mg is generally discarded by the body unused, and could become toxic to you. Kirk
Response:
yeah, garlic is a natural antibiotic, as is echinecea (sp?)…try either one…and although some people claim that Vitamin C only helps prevent colds, i find that a combination of garlic, plenty of water, and Vit C usually gets rid of mine rpetty quick "The truth winds somewhere between the road to Glastonbury, Isle of the Priests, and the road to Avalon, lost forever in the mists of the Summer Sea."

Response:
Not a lot you can do now, but when colds are going around wash your hands a lot, take 3 or 4 (daily) echinacea/goldenseal combo caps (not for more than 3 weeks), plus plenty of C. If in spite of your efforts you catch it, AT THE FIRST SIGN THAT YOU HAVE IT get into as hot a tub as you can stand, with a hot drink. Prepare your bed with as many quilts and blankets as you own. Spread a towel over your pillow. After soaking for at least 20 minutes, pat dry, put on socks and pjs(or long underwear) Get in bed with a glass of water handy, bundle up and stay there for 24 hours getting up only for the bathroom or hot drinks and for those trips stay bundled. If you want to eat go ahead. Restless in bed, go to the sofa for TV if you must but stay bundled and quiet. Drink lots of liquid. Garlic, onions, peppers, Jewish style chicken soup are all good. Get well!
