This is what got me through the weekend! 🍋🍯
A head cold, a cosy blanket and endless mugs of hot lemon water with a spoonful of Manuka Honey 500+ from and my daily dose of marine collagen.
And there's a little science behind my comforting concoction…
🍯 Manuka Honey – Known for its antibacterial properties, Manuka honey contains methylglyoxal (MGO). Honey can also help soothe an irritated throat and ease coughing.
💙 Marine Collagen – Rich in amino acids that support the body's normal tissue maintenance and repair. While collagen won't cure a cold, it's an easy way to add some extra protein to your daily routine, especially when you're feeling under the weather.
🍋 Vitamin C – Essential for normal immune function, vitamin C helps protect cells from oxidative stress and supports the body's natural defences.
Add plenty of rest, hydration and a little self-care, and you've got my recipe for getting through a miserable head cold.
Sometimes it's the simplest rituals that make us feel a little better. 💛
