Hot tea versus common cold: stay healthy this winter!
Hi everyone, MisterLopez here!
Well, this week doesn’t start out too well for me. I’ve been down with a bit of a cold for these last couple of days and for me, being sick is one heck of a nuisance. I suppose it is only to be expected as the winter cold is upon us. I haven’t really taken any measurements against the cold this time either; something which I normally do. The best way to deal with a cold is by countering it with something hot. And no, whilst there have been quite a few pictures of hot women on this blogg lately, that is unfortunately not quite enough to fight a cold.
Tea is my weapon of choice against the cold or flu. Reason for it is because it can be so versatile when it comes to what you have in it. I prefer honey myself as that is the best anti-cold combination as it soothes a sore throat quite nicely. A slice of lemon works too if you want to go for the more sour approach. I’ve heard that ginger can be a valid addition, but this is not something that I’ve tried myself. Ginger tea on the other hand is supposed to be one of the ultimate cold killers, though the taste may not be to everyone’s liking.
Whilst I like tea, I am not actually too fond of the many different kinds of tea that exist. I tend to stick to black tea varieties, my favorite being the good old Earl Grey.
Stay warm and healthy folks!
