Lemonade is for the liver and keeping a normal pH level. Use every morning or pinch of baking soda in bottled water.

Most fall under their sources such as : Stomach, Colon, Kidney and Liver. The depth of this will not be approached here on this page.

Lemon shines for morning sickness every

Cold Treatment: At the onset of a cold, add 1/2 teaspoon each of cinnamon and ginger to 1 cup of scalded milk. Add 1 teaspoon of honey and drink while hot. It’s very soothing and stimulating. (or. mom's was just hot water, sugar sip when warm, many times a day, especially in morning and evenings)

Royal Mix for Severe Colds: Mix 1- cup each of dried White Yarrow, Spearmint, Sage, Catnip, Horehound, Verbena and Pennyroyal. Pour 1 pint of boiling water over 2-1/2 tablespoons of the herb mix. Cover and let stand 10 minutes. Strain and sweeten. Reheat and drink 1 cup every couple hours. Use more often if sweating is desired. Cinnamon Tea: This is really good to take during a cold, as it will cause you to sweat. Cinnamon is a strong stimulant and this really works. Simmer 6 sticks of cinnamon in 1 pint of water for 30 minutes. Strain and add milk and honey after removing the cinnamon sticks. Taste delicious and kids love it. (Substitute another anti-fungal herb for the one not available that grown in your area.

Remember to treat the whole body in your Colds. (Treat all four, stomach, colon, kidneys and liver.)
Colon: Enema or laxative (as simple as 3 prunes) The need of keeping the colon clean especially when sick to move it all out Note this is most important to begin cleansing, clearing sweeping the debris out of the body.
Kidneys: Lots of room temperature liquids (boil water if necessary to have fungal free water.) This helps to cleanse the blood and dilute the poisons. Liver: See “liver” page for a list of all the liver herbs and choose one. (Take the suggested “blood purifying herbs” like Milk Thistle, i.e. that correlates with your on-going heath problems). You really can kill two birds with one stone here. Most of these herbs are anti fungal of course or see parasite page.
Approximately 1,000 mg of Vitamin C each hour with a full glass of pure water. Vitamin C is an anti fungal. Or/and fresh lemon aid warm or cold is a natural anti fungal too.
Stomach: No food especially if in pain.

Listen to your body. If blood sugars a problems, or very weak use milder foods.
No meats, cheeses that have too much concentrated proteins. All these will plug up any eliminating efforts to more flue like symptoms. Also, eating proteins will make the flue last longer. You’ll want to work with nature not fight her.

(Use some fresh fruits or juices, but be careful here…too much will make you sicker fast because you’ll eliminate too fast. If in pain…watch the animals and do what they intuitively know to do, don’t eat.

Vegetable (Plants) slow downs your process of elimination. Let me repeat:
Protein halts elimination to a screeching halt, Fruit speeds up the process and Vegetables slows down the process of eliminating. Fasting Eliminates and acts as nature surgeon. You choose where you are and what you can do depending on many factors.

Its duration and how complicated the illness will depend on your choices. You’ve gotten here because the body is full of toxins and it need to clean house (flue) to save your life and not add a build of toxins in a form of disease depending on where it lodges in the body. This elimination is actually a blessing. The flue process chips of longer diseases. Don’t stop it but work with it. Too many take a pill to stop it then this flue process then sickness will build up in the body by not eliminating poisons out of the body. Then you’ll have a bigger problem down the road. Where it lands and stays will be the name of your disease.

Vegetables such as beets will cleanse the liver and one of the many applicable foods to choose from. All citrus fruit or grapes for the stomach i.e.
