The next time you feel a cold coming on, use black pepper - LOTS of black pepper.
Black pepper acts like an expectorant that helps to thin mucus and reduce congestion. The piperine in black pepper is a known antioxidant with anti-fever and pain-relieving properties too.
Black pepper is chock full of healthy elements, including vitamins A and C, zinc, iron and folic acid. There are lots of ancient black pepper cold remedies, but just using it generously on your food at the onset of a cold can help to lessen severity and provide some symptom relief.
