flu bomb and colds

 Flu Bomb

I got this from another blog
A more natural alternative to the flu shot:

3 drops  Oregano

5 drops  Immune System blend

5 drops  Melaleuca

5 drops Lemon

If you feel like you are starting to come down with a cold or a flu, put these oils in an empty gel capsule and take internally. Repeat every 3-4 hours until you feel better again.
I will also use these in the bath, with coconut oil and epsom salts

Flu bomb recipe 2

 Combine the following ingredients in a capsule. Take every 4 hours (except while sleeping).

• 3 drops peppermint
• 2 drops oregano
• 2 drops frankincense
• 2 drops Immune System blend, (for a cold I used this one, but used Eucalyptus instead of the blend)

Right before bed, she added 2 drops of lime to the mixture because lime is good for suppressing a cough.
This combination worked effectively, and she experienced an instant uplift after taking the capsules, likely due to the peppermint.
