Cold & Flu Prep

The Cold and Flu season is almost upon us and soon your family and friends will be inundated with  suffering cold weather ills. As you know a strong immune system is the best form of defense and homoeopathy has a great immune support remedy in Anas barbariaeAs soon as the weather starts to change with the onset of cooler nights we recommend a fortnightly or monthly dose of Anas barbariae continuing right through the winter months. This can be very beneficial for the elderly and those people who suffer frequent colds and flu.

Anas barbariae can also be taken when in contact with infected people and at the very first sign of symptoms along with the remedy that best suits your individual symptoms.

Sudden onset of ailments such as colds, sore throat, earache, croup and fever, especially after exposure to chill wind, indicates Aconite.

Slow onset with chills and achy flu like symptoms indicates Gelsemium 

and when just feeling ‘off colour’ with mild fever and rosy cheeks use Ferrum phos

Kali mur suits the early stages of a cold with white phlegm like egg white, stuffiness and congestion. Congestion and crackling noises in the ear on swallowing or nose blowing.

A few doses of Sulphur towards the end of a cold can help to lift the vitality.
