7 exotic ways to treat colds

A beautiful autumn sometimes brings unexpected colds with it. Traditional medicine recipes from 7 overseas countries and 7 overseas healers.

Autumn is the time of a runny nose and colds and recipes of traditional medicine from different countries of the world can be very useful, especially if you find out in advance what doctors think about the usefulness of using certain decoctions, tinctures and lotions. Moreover, some methods of treating a cold are not so pleasant.

Dominican Republic

Thoroughly chopped half of an onion should be mixed with a cup of honey and allowed to brew for several hours. 2 tablespoons of the resulting drug should be consumed every night, after mixing with the juice of half a lime, until the symptoms disappear completely. Important! Onions should be chopped with a knife, not chopped with a blender.

Doctor's comment: The remedy is quite effective, because onions have a pronounced anti-inflammatory effect and are a strong antioxidant, and a loading dose of vitamin C in lime juice helps to activate the body's defenses. There is no medical explanation for the need to chop the bulb by hand.

North America

Any real American mother knows very well that it is necessary for a sick child to cook chicken soup as soon as possible and feed it to the unfortunate until he starts to turn away from the spoon. The procedure should be repeated as often as possible.

Doctor's comment: It may sound surprising, but according to a recent study by the University of Nebraska Medical University, chicken soup can actually reduce cold symptoms because it has a beneficial effect on the mobility of white blood cells.
