my hubby and kids are starting to cough and I can feel sickness coming. I ordered lotus root today (I cannot find it in kansas city, even at whole foods) Does anyone know of any alternatives that may be easier to find in the mean time. I'm afraid by the time it even gets here it will be waaaayyyy too late. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I'm planning on making the healing soup tonight.

Neti pots are awesome! Mix the warm saline and irrigate those sinuses to kill germs and cut sickness short.

eat as superhero as you can and rest as much as possible...stay away from breads and baked stuff and sweets...just go whole grain rice...and greens and veg dishes...the nishime would be very good. and lots of soups...only eat if you are hungry. make the cure all tea...1 x a day...and you will heal.

Oil of Oregano. Very strong, but a few drops under your tounge will knock just about anything out of you.

I should point out these are young children. Not having real luck getting them on superhero, any help for the little ones?

Essential oils were not intended for internal use and never give them to children.
