• Fresh mint
• Fresh ginger
• Fresh garlic
• Fresh or powdered turmeric
• Black pepper
• Chamomile tea
• Green tea (matcha)

OTC Medicines

• Saline spray

For food, of course everything fresh is better, but sometimes when you’re already sick, it’s great to have ready to use chicken broth handy as your comfort food.

Obviously this list is not exhaustive, and there are some recipes that are useful to prevent or function as home remedy when sick.
