Natural remedies for colds are extremely common because the chemical preparations that can be bought in all pharmacies merely ease the unwanted symptoms and minimise their longevity. These remedies can be traced back for thousands of years.

The usual complaints whilst suffering from a cold are coughing, a painful throat, runny nose, congestion, painful aches all over, tiredness, headaches, fever, feeling sick, vomiting and a lack of appetite.

Natural remedies for colds need not be hard to obtain or make. Initially raising the humidity of your rooms will help reduce the discomfort of a cold. But also make sure to keep your insides hydrated. By drinking more fluids, especially water, you will alleviate symptoms, replace fluids and flush out infection faster. Lemon is also very important among the many natural remedies for the common cold as it help to fight infection and is an antibacterial agent. Honey helps to soothe sore throats. Echinacea and goldenseal have been shown to reduce the symptoms and aid recovery.

If you feel really blocked up the following are extremely helpful: garlic, onion, ginger, spices such as pepper, cayenne, chilli powder, turmeric, cinnamon, cumin, cloves and herbs such as thyme and oregano. Many of these fight infections and are antiviral.

Use tea tree, eucalyptus and peppermint aromatherapy oils to help loosen mucus and heals the throat, nasal passages and bronchial tubes. Inhale vapors of these oils by putting it on a cotton ball, in a steam bath or an aromatherapy diffuser.

Of the many natural remedies for colds there are some surprising ones such as drinking catnip tea (catnip is usually for cats). This herbal remedy has been known for some time. Catnip works as an expectorant and opens up the bronchial passages helping you breathe more easily. It also helps to reduce a high temperature by making you sweat. Catnip contains a sedative compound so it will also help you go to sleep. Catnip should be avoided by pregnant women.
