It is no longer a major illness, the common flu, but we all want to get rid of it as soon as possible once we have gotten it. Even more annoying is when this flu you have just doesn't seem to go away, no matter what you try, it could even bring you down mentally if it just refuses to leave your body.
Of course there has been great improvements in the cures that there are for this common cold in the form of medicines but most of these really don't do anything else than suppress the symptoms and not help your body resist the flu itself.
You should heal the symptoms
A very different approach to dealing with the common flu is in the form of homeopathy together with aromatherapy and a specific diet that will give you a better nutrition which will make you feel better in a lot less time. Using this type of treatment means that you may not find the right one the first time around and that you will probably have to try out several different remedies. But the beauty is that once you have found the one that works for you is that you are healing the symptoms and not just suppressing the flu, which is what most modern medicines do.
Lets take a look at a few of the different types of remedies you could give a try for your flu. One of them is glyconutrients, these will give your immune system a nice boost, also give Belladonna a try if you have a high fever and some headaches as well. Another thing to try is Selenium that is a wonder remedy if you are suffering from chills, aches, fatigue and a sore throat. When it is a runny or irritable nose (or both) that you want to get rid of, try some Nux vomica and then there is of course Bryonia that has always been a wonder with cold symptoms or the flu.
What you could also try in the fight against the common flu, is a remedy that is called Oscilloccinum but sometimes is sold as Anas barbariae. This homeopathy remedy is taken every two hours, but not more then five doses per day.
Aconitum Nappelus is also something you could try out if the flu kind you have is one that strikes without warning and has you in bed with a fever and anxiety and if a soar throat is playing up as well then maybe Apis Mellifica is what you should try certainly when.
Whatever you do, always consult a homeopathy professional before you start experimenting with any of these mentioned products or remedies. There are a lot of doctors out there these days that are specialized in these kind of medicines and who can help you with finding the perfect solution for eliminating the symptoms of your common flu. Certainly if you are in a risk group concerning the flu, you should always consult your doctor before you proceed and try these substances.
