In this period of time lot of people are getting ill. Usually I am immune against it and will get through this time period without serious illness. But unfortunately this year it is different. I got flu and need to get rid of it as soon as possible, otherwise I will be unable to go to my sky vacation which I was looking forward to quite long time. I want to avoid using antibiotics. I am trying to drinking lots of hot lemon tea with honey, also using some common pills against coughing and against fever. What are your proven methods to get rid of flu??

I think the best way to cure flu is to rest more. Don't let yourself tired anymore. Just go to the bed and have a good sleep. I often find myself feeling better after sleeping when i have flu. Hope you get well soon. Have a nice day!

Thank you, the only problem when I lie in the bed during the day and fall asleep few times is it is almost impossible to fall asleep during the night.

Try to use Antioxidant product. My husband is using Bio-C a bio anti-oxidant product. This is not only protect him from cough which was a chronic disease for him,but also getting protection from dust and flu.

Hi dieorfly, I would just stay in bed and drink plenty of water and eat chicken soup or broth, I think using antibiotics will get all the gunk out of your body and will help you get better, hope you soon be better. Tamara
