Also it's important to avoid junk foods, alcohol and smoking when you have a cold or the flu. Instead consume fresh, natural foods and drinks to help your body cleanse and re-balance itself. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) each of us is regarded as a unique individual, so to get specific advice on how traditional Chinese medicine techniques can help YOU, a face to face consultation with a TCM practitioner (acupuncturist and/or herbalist) is best.
