Reduce a Fever  A fever is an elevated body temperature that
most often occurs as a sign of illness. Even as your body
temperature increases, most people feel colder than normal until
the fever reaches its highest temperature. This is the immune
system's response to infections.  Gone are the days of "feed a
cold, starve a fever." Today it is more widely believed that
both illnesses should receive similar attention and care. Sip
this warm elixir to reduce a fever: combine 1 1/2 teaspoons
cream of tartar, 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice, 2 1/2 cups warm
water, and 1/2 teaspoon honey. Drink slowly.  Adapted from
