Hey guys... Any ideas for speed flue curing? I'm having a very terrible flue that I wish to take my nose off due to the continuous sneezing that I couldn't even sleep last night... I'm even wearing a heavy sweater at the moment where the weather is terribly hot, yet, I'm feeling cold Gosh I hate so badly what i'm passing through! Any ideas on how to get well very soon? i'm eating the medicines but I'm hoping if you guys enlighten me with some speedy cures

Eat garlic cooked or uncooked. It is the most efficient and fast help. Just eat light food, like veg soups - especially if you have fever. Cut a slice of an onion and place it near your bed - that will help you sleep and heal faster.. Eat lots of fruit and vegetables, especially red and yellow where you get carotenoids that help your immunity. You should eat them every day to avoid more bad flues. Add some good oils from nuts and seeds, that are not roasted, and when you get better and can eat protein, eat fat fish three or four times a week. Always avoid junk food like french fries. The heated oils can cause lots of damage in your brain and body. I hope you get better soon!!

all you can do is drink lots and take medicine to help ease the symptoms and wait til it passes.

Drink lots and lots of clear fluids such as water, ginger ale, sprite. Anything clear is good for your body and will help flush what's ailing you out of your body and help rehydrate you too however, water is the best thing for your body but if you don't like water then drink ginger ale or sprite or something like it. Gatorade is good for the flu too because it does rehydrate you well but only for one bottle then go back to clear fluids. Now if you're getting hot and then cold, that sounds like you have a fever which means you need to see a doctor to get some antibiotics. That's something serious and can reek havoc on your body so get to a doctor and soon! Hope you get to feeling better soon!!

Our body is the best doctor. It can heal itself through our immune system (body resistance to bacteria and viruses). What you need to do is strengthen your immune system by taking in immune boosters such as Vitamins (A, C & E) and minerals like Zinc. Drink a lot of fluids especially Citrus fluids and have an ample rest.

but I hope you are not having cough!! I dont want my sugar to get worse like her friend I got the cough today morning..So, now i'm sneezing and coughing! my gosh wot a hard time to pass!! last night while I was having my dinner with some of my friends at one of the canteens at the hostel; I suddenly felt backache and then started shivering that I got a fever but it didn't last for long as today morning I woke up having coughs instead of the fever..at least the cough is a bit better than fever especially when we are away of home during the semester! However, I just got back home to have a great care!

I have never tried to place the onions next my pillow..but i would rather eat them mixed with salads while for the garlic, I almost vomited as I couldn't swallow it..I sliced into very thiny pieces coz I don't like to eat it..so, I thought of slicing it into small pieces and swallow it with water but it got stuck in my throat hahaha my gosh I hope you do get better.. I'm still not feeling ultimately good... hmmmm,,, friends happen to have the same sickness at the same time LOL wot a lovely incidence
