How I Beat the Flu in only 24hrs!
*A year ago, my blog was hacked into and so I had to start my website all over again. I was able to save some of my post which I will share about. This is one of my most popular post. It was written 2 years ago.
The flu is going around big time right now. Our whole family has been hit. I was 3rd in the family to be hit with the symptoms. For 8 hours I felt TERRIBLE! The worst part was the throbbing headache! I also had fever, body aches, fatigue, nausea and a little cough. I basically slept the whole day and took lots of natural remedies. I had already started boosting my immune system prior to getting sick since my son had it first. I do believe boosting my immune system had something to do with me getting over all of those major flu symptoms so quickly (only 24hrs for me), as well as that I am a generally healthy person and eat well.
What I Keep in my Natural First Aid Kit
I keep this little first aid kit in my car and I can’t tell you how many times it has come in handy! Like for the time Gianni got stung by a jelly fish, or Nico by some sea urchin. This all usually happens at the beach by the way. Perks of living in paradise. haha There was also a time when I had to help a guy who got hit in the face with something when his BBQ blew up! SO random I know!!
10 Natural Remedies I Keep in My Cabinet at All Times
I am a huge fan of allowing our bodies to work itself out naturally. Before having children I used to just lay in my bed, nourish my body with soups and liquids and allow my body to rest and heal. Of course prescription medicine has it’s place when absolutely necessary, but I only found myself having to use that 2x since I was 18 years old and lived on my own. Prior to that I don’t even know what my mom gave me. I’ll have to ask her and do a whole blog post about it. haha I didn’t even really use natural supplements at the time except maybe some raw honey, tea and natural cough drops if needed.
