Currently battling strep throat and it’s the worst. The doctor didn’t even swab me or take my temp yesterday—just told me to come back if it got worse. Super helpful. I can barely swallow, but the good news is I know what works. I used to get this all the time, so here’s what I do: 1. Echinacea + goldenseal (normally a tincture, but I ordered capsules this time) 2. Advil for pain + fever 3. Lemon water + ginger tea with honey on repeat 4. Really salty chicken noodle soup 5. Lots of sleep 6. Detox bath every night: 2 cups Epsom salt, ½ cup baking soda, 2 tbsp ground ginger in a super hot bath for 20 mins. Drink water. Prepare to sweat like crazy overnight. I’m on day two and feeling a bit better already. Sharing in case anyone else has a weak immune system or gets knocked out by strep like me.
