One of the few herbal remedies I do at home is ginger tea to fight white tongue (on previous post I write that white tongue has the worst symptoms like anxiety, procrastination, fatigue, and brain fog).
But not only I get the benefit of eliminating the symptoms of white tongue I mentioned up from ginger, but I also benefit from an increased immune system to fight common cold.
In this post, I just wanna put in a step by step on my current health routine, to fight white tongue and common cold.
My Health Routine Recently
- The first thing in the morning is 'oil pulling'. A fancy term for spritzing virgin coconut oil in my tongue and throat and letting it stay for as long as I could. (tip: spit out the saliva on the toilet so you wont get problems on clogged sink.)
- The second is ginger mouthwash. I also try to let the ginger juice into my mouth for as long as I can. I try to repeat the process throughout the day as many times as I can. (good thing I don't have work yet)
- The third is time for a small cup of warm ginger tea squeezed with a piece of calamansi. (this taste amazing even without sugar
- Next, any meal I try to eat is always mindful of the carbs. Low-carb is generally healthy so I try to at least minimize my rice. But ginger tea gives me a lot of appetite actually, so I just try to eat real food as much as possible. If I wanted a bit more rice, I forgive myself rather than binge eating ice cream or any carbs that's worst than rice. I also like to add more veggies to my plate and lately, I harvested some kale to go with omellete.
- With regards to oral hygiene, I follow the doctor's advice to always brush teeth each meal and when I eat snacks.
- COMBINATION. I recently did this to save time, one sprit of virgin coconut oil and a small gulp of ginger tea. Then let it stay there for as long as I could. Do it as often as possible.
Chores at home last week piled up and my body can't seem to keep up, so I got a really bad sore throat and the next morning, I have a cough and cold.
Doing all of the things I listed above especially 2-3 cups of warm ginger tea spread all throughout the day gave me an INSTANT RELIEVE. In 3 short days, I am healed thank God.
What If I Skip some of it?
I just want to clarify that at some point when I skipped ginger mouthwash my 'unuseful thoughts' (aka anxiety and negative thoughts) try to flow back in.
If I am not spritzing virgin coconut oil as often, I also get a bit of anxiety.
If I overeat unhealthy snacks like cake bars, I also get the same symptoms. (please remember that I am referring to the symptoms of white tongue).
Final Thoughts
I really wanted to highlight in this post the benefit of warm ginger tea for strong immunity.
I am amazed by its result that in just three days, I feel relieved and healed, up and running again.
As you can see with the result, I am constantly posting, except Sunday (I did some other thing that day I apologize).
All these are alongside my usual chores and assisting my niece on his modules.
I hope you can take away this amazing info about ginger tea.
Plus the squeezed calamansi will act as your FOOD-BASED vitamin C so it's better (not a fan of synthetic). I try to minimize calamansi on a scratch throat so it wont get worse, but in my experience, 1 piece of calamasi is just right.
If ever you wonder, how can I gargle as many times a day with ginger tea and virgin coconut oil.
I already prepared them ahead. The ginger tea will last at least 3 days in the fridge. And I refill my spritzer for like 5-7 days.
That is it for now.
Thanks for reading all the way.
