When the flu comes, it is important that you have some ayurvedic home remedies for cough and cold that allow you to enliven your immunity and fight back disease.
This is a simple and very tasty paste that you can make up and jar it to have on hold, especially for the autumn-winter-early spring time of year.
This home remedy for cough and cold increases immunity and fights infections.
Recipe:
- 1 tablespoon of Honey*
- 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon powder
- 1/4 tsp cardamom powder
- 10 drops of fresh ginger juice or 1/4tsp ginger powder
Mix a large batch of this up, keep it in a glass jar ready for use.
Dosage: Lick 1tsp 2-3x a day or when needed.
*Honey should be unheated (not above body temperature). Ensure the honey you buy is extracted this way. Most honey in the supermarkets, even health food stores (organic included!) will be extracted at temperatures higher than 37 degrees. I suggest going to your local farmers market and speaking to the apiarist.
