New Cold Remedy Find~


Newly Discovered Cold Remedy... Right in Your Pantry
Natural Cures from Bottom Line Newsletter 11-9 2010

Last December, I blogged about onions as a home remedy for insomnia, colds and more. In fact, I've had more comments posted for that blog than to any other so far. Here's a link if you want to check that out: http://margiesblog.bottomlinesecrets.com.

Shortly after I'd posted the Onion blog, my youngest daughter had a cold and so we had the opportunity to try it ourselves. I sent her to bed with sliced onions in her socks and on a plate on her night table. (I am lucky that my children love me and trust me, given the wacky things I sometimes ask them to do.) Within minutes, Lily's symptoms were noticeably better. We did it the next couple of nights as well, and her cold resolved much quicker than normal.


From Anna:
P.S.I have found that if you saute' an onion in butter at the first sign of a sore throat, you can remedy it and nip it in the bud. Also the garlic works too. It is a natural antibiotic. Garlic and onions in homemade soups work wonders as well. Grandma Mattie
