Looking for a healthy yet delicious soup recipe to warm you up in this cold weather?

Ingredients
• 1 medium yellow onion

Cold & Flu symptoms are no fun. Sore throat, cough, congestion? Count us out. Here are 5 natural home remedies to help lessen some of the symptoms you might be experiencing this virus season.

1. Use steam. Taking a steamy shower or using a humidifier can help with congestion or a dry throat. Just be sure to change the water in your humidifier daily to prevent mold growth.

2. Gargle warm salt water. This can provide temporary relief from a sore throat. But be sure to spit the saltwater out after gargling - don't swallow it.

3. Try a neti pot or sinus rinse. This helps flush out mucus and allergens from your sinuses, making it easier to breathe.

4. Drink warm tea with honey. Honey is full of antioxidants and can help soothe a sore throat, and warm drinks can help loosen mucus.

5. Vitamin C and Zinc. Both of these are immune-boosting and may help your cold clear up a bit faster. But always talk to your healthcare provider before starting any new supplements.
