Fighting Colds And The Flu



Whenever you feel a cold or flu coming on try this. 
We aren’t doctors, but this natural formula works for us.

INGREDIENTS
1 part echinacea root powder
1/2 part cayenne powder
1 part goldenseal root powder
1/2 part marsh mallow root powder
 Gelatin or vegetable capsules

INSTRUCTIONS
1. To make the capsules: Mix the powders together in a small bowl.

2.Scoop the powder into each end of a capsule, packing tight, and recap.

3.It takes only a few minutes to cap 50 to 75 capsules, a winter’s worth for most families.

4.Store in a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid.

5.To use: At the first sign of a cold or flu coming on, take 2 capsules every 2 to 3 hours until the symptoms subside or 9 capsules a day.

6.This is a high dose and should not be continued for longer than 2 to 3 days, at which time you should decrease the dose to 2 capsules three times a day.

You can fill the capsules individually by hand or you can use something like the capsule makers that are available.
We use the Capsule Machine as seen in the photo, but there are many good products out there.
