I will be 69, March 15, 2019 and have had 1 common cold in 29 years and still do what mom and grand mom said to. I do chicken and beef broth very often and love sour kraut and kimchi, pickles, green olives and more. I VERY seldom eat out and use lots of garlic, ginger, sprinkle cayenne on most every thing. I use the recipe before bed, 1 and a half table spoon of honey, 1/4tbs hymalain salt, 1/4tbs cinammon and always wake with lots of energy.

Great video! I really enjoy your content!

Great video, our mom's certainly had our best interest at heart but lacked knowledge.

I'm sick TODAY & Dr. Axe came THRU!!😊

[hammerheadable]

I'm glad I subscribed to your channel. Thank you.

I love taking grapefruit seed extract when I feel something coming on... well I don't love it because it tastes like soap gone bad, but it works. Elderberry syrup for the kids👍

I’ve found that I get way more comfort and relief from these old world remedies than any medicine I can buy at the pharmacy. Decongestants make my heart race for hours, but a steamy shower clears me right up. I think we need to get back to the old ways.

[ksysha]

this is great! simply yet informative. thank you.

I was given Heinz vegetable soup, white bread and margarine, Lucozade a glucose drink. I too took forever to get well.

My mom made everything from scratch...even the ginger ale. She would grind the ginger, put honey & seltzer. 💖💋 to my mom!

Eating something is better than nothing, usually my appetite goes away from the stress and lack of energy from being sick. Thank you for this very informative video.

I remember being sick with a nasty flu and feeling better after some serious ginger, lemongrass, turmeric tea. Probably helped me get over it a couple days faster, too.

[jessegentry]

Great job teaching the public that still some old recipes do and always will work. I bought your Eat Dirt book and rushed out immediately and bought the Keto Diet book, but had to order it not knowing it is so new and feel blessed that someone is spreading the truth and not just for sales though your books are fantastic! Great job, great videos and great materials you advise. Please, please don't quit for humanities sake.

I have all those ingredients in my Pantry Dr. I am a total believer in the remedies so thank you for the video here. watching from New Zealand

[acereport]

Whenever my kids get sick I always make chicken soup from scratch. The advice I got was to avoid the center isles of the grocery store as that’s where all of the processed food are kept (including canned chicken soup and sodas)!

[damirkulizada]

Dr.axe Can you please make a more videos on Probiotics with Candidate uses with age and not overdosing???

[annawiebe]

Can you tell me essential oils for cancer and colds, flu,arthritis,inimitable,and other diseases

[thevitaminstorecanada]

you should do a video on serrapeptase for oral chelation therapy, reducing plaque from arterioscleroris or how nattokinase is used as a natural blood thinner.


cheers from the vitamin store in waterdown ON Canada.

My mom will make a large amount of chicken soup (no noodles, just chicken broth, chicken, carrots, potatoes, as well as ginger and garlic) and freeze it in serving size jars that we could take out and heat up in a pot.

[southerntexashomestead]

Yes. My mom was a nurse and she gave me canned chicken noodle soup and ginger ale. Thank goodness I did research and discovered that we need homemade organic chichen (bone broth) soup and ginger tea. I also use elderberry everyday to boost my immune system. Thanks for all your great videos. Please keep them coming.
P.s. all that modern propaganda gave our Mom's misinformation. We love ya Mom.
