So. Cal Man	Once you start feeling ill, go out and run your *** off. Make sure you run hard and long.

mysterygirl	This is what I did when I felt like I coming on with a sore throat and a cold just recently. I made sure to gargle with salt water as much as I can, take naps or just go to sleep earlier. Drink lots and lots of orange juice and warm beverages. Keep warm, but not too warm! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Francis D	You can over come this if you make yourself sweat. Try jogging so that you sweat. I used to use dried orange peels. I would boil it for a couple of hours. Then, I would get a blanket and hover around the pot...Making sure that I am not allowing any steam to escape. Its kinda like a sauna. I would stay in there for as long as possible. Which might be about 2 minutes...Then you feel better instantly. Dont shower right away. Wait until your body cools down. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

oldknowitall	Drink large amounts of water. Some of that can be in warm teas, warm soups, etc.Make some soup with lots of Onion and Garlic. If you have lots of mucus, get Mullein tea and use it. It will break up the congestion.Extra vitamin C helps me. I use 1000 mg about 6 or 8 times a day. Some people are afraid of that much, but it is safe. I gargle with Hydrogen Peroxide many times a day and use homeopathic nose Drops so I can breath while sleeping. All this should get rid of the bacteria infected congestion so you can feel better! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Claire	5,000mg of Vitamin C and elderberry tablets. The "Emergen-C" brand of Vitamin C is pretty good. Each packet is 1,000mg, so take 5 of them at a time. It sounds like a lot, and it is under normal circumstances, but it's fine for right now. You can also try Echinacea. I personally believe in it but many people are skeptical. Also the typical, wash your hands very frequently and drink LOTS of water. Hope this helps! For other health information check out http://www.easy-health-tips.com Was this answer helpful to you?

minx	Go get yourself a powedered form of Ascorbic Acid (vitamin C) with Bioflavonoids mixed with Zinc from either the health food store or chemist. The Zinc will make the effect of the Vitamin C 10 times more effective and the Bioflavonoids will also increase the effectiveness of vitamin C. Have 3,000 - 4,000 mg (3 - 4 teaspoons) daily mixed with water until the cold subsides then maintain your immunity with 1 teaspoon daily. Drink vitamin C rich rosehips tea as this is the richest known source of vitamin C. Increase your intake of vitamin C rich foods on a daily basis to prevent any further infection. ie: citrus fruits, berries, leafy and green vegies, tomatoes, red and green peppers. Ensure you are drinking plenty of pure filtered water ........... avoid caffeine containing beverages such as coffee, tea, soda and soft drinks, as these will only serve to dehydrate you and rob your body of essential B & C vitamins. Ensure you are drinking or eating something with Beta - carotene in it daily to heal quicker and in future to prevent further colds, as Vitamin A will aid in the proper function of the immune system, shorten the duration of illnesses and generally bolster the health of the mucosal lining of your ear nose and throat. ie: carrot juice, pumpkin, eggs, milk and dairy products. Take a good quality multi b-Complex supplement on a daily basis both now while you are sick and for future prevention methods. The b-Complex of vitamins is essential for healthy immune, digestive and neural functioning and will help your body deal with the extra stress of being ill.

Scootaloo	Get some "Emergen-C" or "Airborne" at your pharmacy (both are over-the-counter). They're packed with vitamins that will stop your cold in its tracks, as long as you're not already sick! Also eat lots of complex carbs and lean protien, and drink lots of water. Organic tea is packed full of anti-oxidants that will flush the free radicals out of your system to detox you.
