On cold days, the number of illnesses increases drastically. Statistics say that at the end of January, the last wave of flu, colds, coughs, and blocked nose illnesses breaks out. Will it be the same this year?

To avoid these problems, you can prepare an effective and simple remedy at home. You need:

• a cup of homemade apple cider vinegar
  
• 100 grams of horseradish

Preparation:

Grate the horseradish and pour the vinegar over it. Place the mixture in a jar that can be tightly closed. For at least 5 days, put it in a place not exposed to direct sunlight. Shake the mixture well once a day.

How do vinegar and horseradish help?

After five days, you don't need to eat this mixture. Just 5 minutes of inhaling it will open up your sinuses. If you soak a cloth in this mixture, or spread some of the mixture on a cloth with a spoon and place it on your forehead, you will get rid of headaches. You can also leave a vinegar and horseradish-soaked cloth on your chest overnight, and you will wake up as good as new. If you have a sore throat or are troubled by cough, wrap the soaked cloth around your neck.

It’s worth adding here an old Greek proverb: a radish has the weight of lead, beetroot of silver, and horseradish of gold.
