Cold and Flu Conditions

The common cold affects all of us! Colds are different to influenza (‘flu) as the symptoms are milder and often short lived. I like to call ‘flu the ‘£50 note disease’. When you suffer with ‘flu, you crawl from your bed to the bathroom and if there was a £50 note on the floor, you wouldn’t stop to pick it up as you don’t have the energy!

There are things you can do to support your immune system to fight off colds quicker and to make sure you are less susceptible to suffering in the first place. Colds and ‘flu are caused by viruses but this doesn’t mean you are helpless when facing them.

Homeopathy can play an important role in lessening your symptoms, which can be helpful especially for children, who may be too young for certain conventional medicines. Homeopathy can also play a role in decreasing your susceptibility to colds and ‘flu in the long term.
