This is what really works for beating the flu (and most other viruses). Go to either the Vitamin Shoppe or People's RX and ask for a homeopathic flu remedy and Oregano oil. You can put a few drops of the oil in the children's juice. Only 1 drop for real little kids (2 and under). The homeopathic medicine will be tablets that dissolve or a liquid. Use 1/2 the adult dosage 3x/day. Don't give them Tylenol or Motrin unless the fever is above 102 or they can't sleep at night. Let the fever do the job of fighting the virus. Just use cool washclothes on the forehead. Hope this helps!

Then you must try Mona Vie. You can only buy it through a distributor, but it is awesome. All natural juice w/ 19 super fruits in. The juice is pure, meaning it is ground up, you're drinking the pulp, skin, etc... If you have ever heard of Acai Berry, it's loaded w/ antioxidants & phytonutrients. I started drinking it & my overall health has gotten so much better. My kids love it too. You only need to drink 2oz a day & you are getting your full servings of fruit a day. In fact, since my 3 year old started drinking it, she has not gotten sick & she is usually always sick, she goes to preschool 3x/wk. I think this drink is another way to keep the flu away. Let me know if you ever want to taste some. It's the best!

Hi my name is G. and my husband likes to try herbal remedies before over the counter meds. One of his favorites for colds is to take a good green tea and add a slice of onion. Soak the onion in the tea while it is hot for about 15 minutes. Add honey to it after the onion has been removed. It sounds gross I know, but the onion is a natural antibiotic as is the honey. Another thing you can add is a pinch of cayenne pepper, it improves the circulatory system which aides in your bodies natural defense system. You just have to plug your nose and get it down. It really does work though. Good luck.
