Did you know that ancient Chinese remedies can be more effective than over-the-counter medications for colds and flu? It’s that time of the year, when someone catches something, and everyone in the house will get it. I recently caught the flu from my daughter. And this remedy helped me to get back up really quickly. And I’d love to share it with you!
Ingredients:
8 cups water
1 thumb ginger, sliced
1 medium white radish, diced
1 medium Asian pear, diced
Instructions:
- In a pot over high heat, pour the water inside and bring it to a boil. Add the ginger. (Ginger is an awesome remedy for cold and flu. When you feel nauseous or dizzy, you can add it to hot water, wait for a bit, and drink it. You’ll start feeling better in just a few minutes.)
- Then add the white radish. (White radish boots up your immunity. It kills germs and bacteria. It has been used in Traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years.)
- Followed by the Asian pear (Asian pear helps clear your lungs and throat. It helps to reduce coughing.)
- Cover the pot with a lid. Boil for about 20 minutes.
- Serve!
Other than this remedy, I also practice a meditation called Falun Dafa. The principles are truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance. By becoming a better person, the physical well-being will also improve. If you are interested in learning more, please check out www.falundafa.org.
