Common Cold Home Remedy with Comfrey
Chop several leaves of comfrey and add 1/2 cup of
elderberries. Add 1 cup of honey and 1 cup of water. Simmer
for 30 minutes. Strain and take as needed to produce
perspiration and reduce fever. The comfrey leaves produce an
aspirin-like substance and help to ease the discomforts of a
cold, as well as soothe inflamed mucous membranes of the
throat. Comfrey is considered a demulcent and an
expectorant. The elderberries serve as a diuretic to flush the
system.
