Natural Cold/Flu Remedies to Stockpile

[Sarah Boye]

After being nearly defeated by this latest round of sickness, I'm really determined to put together a cold/flu survival kit.
So, what would go in your survival kit?

I know I want sambucus in there and I'm trying to find something like old indian wild cherry bark syrup that's in capsules instead of vile liquid. What else?

Oh haha! I totally have some nettle already! Awesome! I took it for a while for my allergies (didn't do enough for me unfortunately), but I'll put it in there!

Nettle is the Best thing for congestion. I use it on my girls (even my 7 month old) get the cut leaves from your local herbal or online or I think Whole Foods has a bag form. And make a tea. I put it in their cups and they they drink it up. Its not gross like most herbals either. Only ever takes a day to clear us up. As with all herbs. Make sure to drink plenty of water

My midwife suggested I try 1,000mg vit D, nettle and eyebright for my allergies instead of claritin. I had to switch back though. Still looking for a better solution for that. :/

I never heard of using it for allergies. Though, I guess its the same concept.

Thanks! I really hate having to take something everyday, but if I don't, I'm so miserable.
