Garlic

Today I chopped a large clove of garlic covered it in lemon juice and added about a Tablespoon of honey. I heated it up enough to mix the honey. I drank it down clove and all.

The lemon and honey felt good on my sore throat.

The garlic seems to be drying up my drainage. It isn't all gone, but it is much better. It also is making me sneeze a little.

I recommend Yarrow if you can have 2-3 cups a day during a cold or the flu. But if you are lactating try garlic. A side effect of eating a lot of garlic is my nurslings like the milk more than usual.
