Cure for the flu please

[LimeSlice]

Two things: GARLIC and HONEY

Get whole cloves of garlic, and peel them, put them on a plate and zap them in the microwave for about 10 seconds. Get a tablespoon and put a clove on teh spoon and dunk the spoon in warm honey. Put it in your gob and swallow...what ever you do - DO NOT CHEW!! lol
Take about 5-10 cloves a day for a few days.
You may ooze garlic, but the cold will be gone wthin 2-3 days

I second what LimeSlice has suggested. Also grab yourself a vapouriser. It'll come in handy once bub is here as well.

If you dont want to scare any customers away(although Limes advice is da bomb), you can try taking Garlic and Horseradish tablets. They really help burn it out of your system and clearing up your chest.

Don't they??

Lulu I was looking at the garlic and horseradish tablets in the supermarket and it said on the packet not to be taken during pregnancy

I need a cure too, I was hoping that was it, but maybe not!

Skyeblue - you are really much better off with taking the garlic and horseraddish fresh, in your everyday diet. Tablets can take a lot for your body to break down, and often the doses in these tablets are so high (as with "one a day" vitamins) that you body cannot fully absorb all of the goodness all at once, so a lot can be lost through your urine.
You are better off taking smaller amounts many times trhough out the day...add honey to your tea or coffee, have lots of garlic for dinner, etc.
It is natural, not going to harm your bubba at all and you can control your intake to suit
