Course Description

There are many home health remedies available to us that are simple to make or take at home that can truly lessen the severity and length of a cold or flu illness. Many of these are recipes passed down from our grandmothers and have been used for hundreds of years. Even though many of these health remedies are folk medicine, their effectiveness has been backed up by science.

These home remedies don’t just simply mask symptoms like pharmaceuticals or contain unwanted side effects. They really are working with the whole body to boost the immune system and are extremely effective antibacterials and antivirals. They shine at helping to build and restore the health of the system.

In this course, we will cover the foods and teas to get you through the cold and flu season. This includes simple recipes to make before the season begins and really simple recipes once you or someone you care for becomes sick. We will also go through what you can buy at the store to have on hand.

In this course, I also cover various protocols for each type of symptom, sore throat, respiratory congestion, fever and ear infections. Finally and most importantly, I go through that best ways to avoid becoming sick in the first place.

So join me in this highly informative course. When cold and flu season hits this year, you’ll be glad you did!

These home remedies provide such amazing relief. I love that Elizabeth uses some of the same recipes as Rosemary Gladstar, the Godmother of Modern Herbalism. Elizabeth has a wonderful delivery of the courses she offers. I have taken nearly all of them. I always look forward to the information she provides and get excited to apply that info to my everyday activities.

By Christine Heaton on 12/21/2022

Clear and concise. I was able to pause and try things, take notes, and look things up before resuming. I like this because you can go at your own pace and dig as deeply as you want while moving through. And the delivery is not condescending.

By Kyla Fife on 9/20/2021

I really love that she gives you all the ingredients for the at home remedies. Would have liked a bit more information on ingredients to give it a 5 star but otherwise i enjoyed the lessons. Is a quick way to learn about home remedies that work.

I loved the pace of this course and all the topics. I will be using all the recipes I learned from many many years to come. I'm so glad I took the course and gained so much knowledge from a great teacher and practitioner!

By Cheryl Watkins on 4/15/2020

This is what I was looking for, enjoyed every minute of this course. Theses days and times you need all the help you can get. Thanks for the websites you know and trust for ordering fresh herbs, some of the sites I use already. All the information in this course is a must. My grandkids will be excited to help make the recipes. I say, let herbs help to be thy medicine.!

By Janice Spratte on 3/31/2019

Clear, specific instructions and easy to understand & repeat, if necessary. This has been a very helpful class!

By Nellie Kampmann on 1/11/2018

Elizabeth explains things in a very clear, straightforwards manner. The recipes are simple to make, although some require being made several weeks in advance. I appreciated the handouts, especially the ones on when to seek medical help and where to get the herbs and tinctures.

By Lisa Feldmann on 11/30/2016

Thank you for this awesome course! This is a wonderful course that provides valuable knowledge about what recipies to try and which herbs to use during a cold, flu or a fever. Perfect for beginners like me! I am glad I took this course and can highly recommend it!

By Rob Vegemast on 11/15/2015

I learned an incredible amount of information in such a short amount of time. Flight attendants love to share information, especially when it comes to things that will lessen the effects and amount of time we are ill. Definitely will recommend your course to others.
