I can barely stomach Nyquil...  ...but I agree, that knocks the cold right out of me at times... | |

I'll add my two cents.
Chicken noodle soup---the vitamin or whatever that is in there ... and there is something called "airborne". it might not help this time, but I have many parishoners that take it..its a chewable over the counter thing, to stave off viruses. They take it when they will be around a group of people, especially during this flu season,, which is really hitting our area hard. also positive thinking "I can beat this thing" and sleep. Get your rest. Tylenol doesn't hurt either | |

Something as simple as washing your hands at work or when around or meeting people can help. | |

If you know/feel the cold coming on then what I do is usually go for a long hard run. Warm up good, wrap up warm and warm down good too. Then have a hot shower and go to bed! A bit ardurous I know, but it boosts up the lymphocytes in your immune system ready to go. You have to get the timing right on this though because if you hit a hard cardio workout whilst suffering from a full blown cold, then things can go a bit Pete Tong
You gotta do it during early symptoms and whilst your body can still function to that capacity. Or take ginger, honey and lemon But that's not what Rocky Balboa would take

Natural cold remedies! An overall view on home healing and dealing with the common cold in an herbal form.
Natural care began even in Moses' time and before. Since we did not have drugs in the ancient times we had to rely on other methods for our self proclaimed cures. Everything had already been supplied for us just by looking out our back doors and turning to nature. Below I will list several examples that have been tried and weeded through to include only the best ones that are most effective. It is our hope that you will have great success with these wonderful weapons against the everyday common cold. Colds are caused by any one of about 20 different viruses. Continuing on, the following paragraphs are some of the many ways that people choose to fight the common cold. Herbal Therapy Garlic can help prevent colds and help reduce symptoms because it contains a potent antibiotic called allicin, which is released when cloves of garlic are chopped, crushed or chewed. You can add raw garlic to foods as a preventive measure, or you can buy garlic supplements, which are available in most health food stores (or drugstores..such as Wal-Mart pharmacy). The best supplement form is "enteric-coated capsules". They are easier for the body to absorb. Please follow label directions for dosage. 300 milligrams daily is the norm for as long as symptoms persist. It has also been found that if you will boil a couple of very strong white onions and cover your head, as you would with a vaporizer, you will find good relief from nasal stuffiness. You may also purchase these capsules in an odorless and tasteless form for those of you that have an intolorence to garlic. It can be quite offensive. Juice Therapy "Fresh" pineapple juice is wonderful for colds! It's less allergenic than citrus and less acidic in the stomach, it won't upset it and cause that burning feeling that you can get with orange juice, and it actually contains more vitamin C. It also breaks down mucus better. To treat a cold, drink four to eight ounces of juice at least four times a day. Please be sure and dilute the pineapple juice with the same amount of water. Food Therapy Grapefruit is a great food for fighting a cold. One reason is it is high in vitamin C. A lesser-known reason is that grapefruit helps detoxify the liver. Your liver is the front line to the immune system and when the immunity is impaired, you need something that is alkaline and not acidic to detoxify it. All citrus fruits become alkaline when metabolized in the body, but oranges and other citrus fruits are too sweet to promote proper liver drainage, so you get much better detoxification from grapefruit. By eating one or more grapefruit and their white bitter pulp each day, you will help prevent colds and build an immunity. Grapefruit is also known as a wonder drug for breaking down fatty tissue and helping you in weight loss. Aromatherapy At first sign of a cold, if you have one, turn on your aromatic diffuser. Scenting a room with the right scents can relieve the symptoms of a cold. Great ones to use are exotic essences such as ravensare and niaouli for their natural anti-infectious and antiviral properties. Because these oils have strong, slightly medicinal smells, you could blend them with a sweeter-smelling oil such as rosewood, lemon, fir, cherry, coconut, blackberry, eucalyptus, or pine. All if these have an antiseptic effect. The most important thing is to start using aromatics as soon as you start feeling weak and run-down. | |

OOH...Garlic! My dad's remedy! Take a piece of dry toast and rub a garlic clove all over it.
It will really soothe your throat and help you feel better
When I was little I used to eat raw garlic cloves whole. | |
