As promised, I start the herbs to help with sore throat... still working on gathering all information 1. Put 4 table spoons of Chamomile flowers in 1 cup of pre-boiled water. Filter. Gurgle. Also good for Tooth aches & gum infections. 2. Boil 2 handfull of plantain leafs in 1 L of water for 10 minutes. Gurgle a few times for sore throat. 3. Cook half a handfull annual mallow ( Lavatera trimestris L.) flowers in 1 L water for 15 mns. Filter. Drink 3 cups a day.
(this plant grows in Sandy areas, mainly by the sea in Europe - Mediterranean area) 4. Cook 100 gr. (3.2 oz) licorice roots in 1 L of water for 2 hours. Filter. Drink half a cup per day. alternate : you can also steep one teaspoon of licorice root in a cup of hot water for three minutes. Drinking the tea will help clear mucus. 5. Cook 2 handful of Barley ("Hordeum") grains in 2 cups of water. Filter. Gurgle whilst still hot.
(varieties grow around the world, more or less)For more ideas :
