Sametboy2019 Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Didn't Egyptians use honey on cuts. Apparently bacteria can't survive in honey. Bacteria can't survive in alcohol over 50 to 60 percent. Viruses can't survive in 90 percent alcohol. Whiskey and honey seems a good mix. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gin and bjs have been the standard English treatment for the flu for centuries - built an empire on it. My treatment also includes zinc from seeds available in cheap packets at 7-11.

Drink until the bottle is finished ( ???? ) and you will have a great night AND wake up the next day with the flu, gone. It has been tried and tested and has not been found wanting. ???? We do the same in Brittany. We replace the whiskey with calvados (farm, artisanal preferably which title much more than that sold in the trade - 40* max , kind 50 to 60 *); In fact we are doing what we call "burning alcohol"; 50% water and 50% calvados in a saucepan, boil it and set fire to the vapors of calva; we wait until it goes away on its own, add honey and drink as hot as possible; then we go to bed under 3 blankets; all night long we sweat; sometimes you have to change your night clothes so they are soaked but the next morning you are brand new ...
