Remedies for cold and flu

Cayenne pepper – For me this is a remedy I always reach for if I feel like I’m having a sore throat. I simply put a little cayenne pepper in a tea cup and add hot water and drink it. After it wears off I can tell you your sore throat will be gone. Just be careful not to add too much cayenne pepper. Do not do it too often as it is a blood thinner.
