The Flu

[blue61]

About 30 years ago, I drank half a bottle of Spanish brandy when I was full of lurgy. Felt fine the next day. Its my go to remedy now, although it's not worked since.

Ive had the flu, it left me practically dead. I didnt have the strength to move. You sure its just not a bad cold??

Hot water, lemon juice, manuka honey, garlic, amd cayenne pepper mix all together. A couple or three of those will see you right

Was just going to say this - most people on here sound like they have a heavy cold NOT the flu.

I've had two bowls of soup in five days, and they were a struggle.

If you can stand, you have a cold. Not the flu.

The point I was trying to make

The amount of people saying they have/had the flu but are walking round or going to work after 4 days - that’s a cold

You massive bellend.

U k hun?

the remedy sounds worse than the ailment. 3 lots of that a day, how far from the toilet could you reasonably get?

I gotta admit it’s not for everyone…. Some folks have a weak constitution, or gag reflex. I experimented with it on a friend after I had done it, I didn’t mind the taste, my friend nearly gagged into next week!!!

Just be mindful with the Cheyenne pepper, that’s the kicker , especially if it gets stuck in your throat!!!

But it’s perfectly natural, I’d rather that, than big pharma carp!!!

Paracetamol and ibuprofen are not for flu!!!

Think people get slightly mixed up between a bad cold and flu, flu absolutely wrecks you, you're not going to be walking round shops and eating meals, I get the flu jab every year, latest one doesn't even give you slight symptoms

It’s really not that bad!!

I've had flu twice. Swine flu in the pandemic and once during COVID.

Nothing else like it. Completely wiped me both times.

Flu is. There's no carrying on as normal with flu.

 

[PITA]

For clarity, I don’t believe it was a made up disease

Fair enough but your comment was somewhat misleading.

I meant my recipe to assist with flu. Flu is a nightmare and bloody horrible

Thought I’d had the flu plenty of times until I actually got the flu once.

Thought I was gonna die. Hallucinating and all sorts.

Honey, lemon juice, cinnamon (stick or powder, but stick is better but needs to soak)

Juice 1 lemon
1 stick cinnamon
2-3 teaspoons honey
Boiling water
Drambuie (essential to me but optional)

Add ingredients to cup, pour on boiling water, stir allow to stand 3-4 minures. Drambuie at end.
Story is, only region not affected by flu in 1917-8 was a cinnamon producing region in China.

Be good soon

Mate, it really is that bad. Shivering and shaking with a heavy delirium - madness
