Herbals

With fall and winter (apparently) approaching, I've been giving a lot of thought to minor respiratory illnesses, especially because Sis has been sniffling all weekend.  We are not big cold and flu remedy users, relying more on humidifiers, warm tubs, cool nights, saline spray, popsicles, honey, and soup.  But I've seen posts all over recently that take home-health remedies several steps further, from our Chicago friend's post on her friend's "flu-curing tea" to Beauty that Moves's post on resources and Fimby's own herbal stockpile.  Our own pediatrician advocates the homeopathic remedy, oscillococcinum (millions of pills made from one goose liver in France!).

Do you have a favorite tonic or treatment for what ails you?
