My Grandma also used to make me chicken soup when I had a cold or fever. This has been time proven to work through the years.(apparently it's the clear chicken stock that does it!

Another thing that she used to make was hot milk and honey, and you used to 'sweat' it out whilst ill in bed.

A rather strange sounding one for sore throats that she used was 2 tea spoons (small size)of butter, mixed with 2 tea spoons of sugar, a great reliever for sore throats, as the sugar, was gritty on your throat, and the butter greased your throat, both enabling a quicker recovery. My Grandma's family had been using these methods for over 100 years, I still use them now. I firmly believe in the 'oldies but goodies' theory!
