3 days agoBeyond chicken soup: what chefs and doctors eat when they're sick (or just hungover)
Hydrate with teas For Dr Ricardo Jose, consultant in respiratory medicine, hydration is key: It's about taking frequent sips throughout the day to keep the mucous membranes moist. Immunologist Dr Jenna Macciochi agrees, saying: I often stir a spoonful of raw honey nature's soothing antimicrobial into a cup of thyme tea (thyme steeped in water), which helps ease irritation and supports respiratory health. I also love marshmallow root tea, which is great for the mucous membranes.
