I don't know where you live, but hopefully there's a pho restaurant there. It's seriously magical food; great for when you're sick, when you're hung over, and of course when you're hungry.

If you smoke cigarettes, quitting will help bring down the length of your colds; at least it did for me!

Definitely cut out smoking. I am 2y,5m sober from gallons of 7-7...And that has solved my acid reflux problem, and I breath much better from no alcohol.

As far as a remedy, I 'll brb. I have similar thread at hygronomics, and friend left a recipe, I think all of you will like. lw

I agree with cannaya...Pho food works wonders on cleansing your system and helping you to get over common colds, flu, etc. Plus it tastes awesome.

Try stuff like ginger.. Ginger is very good for a lot of illnesses. It helps if your feeling nauseous. Otherwise you could try hot food ^^
peace out

I drink green tea...constantly even if you dont have a cold...
I use garlic chopped up and soaked in olive oil with dash of salt ..i use this on everything..builds immune stystem..

Soaking your feet in hot water and sweating it out...does wonders..

vitamin C...always...1000mg..powerful sorce..

Ginger with umeboshi(sour plum) add with hot water like a tea..
My mothers recipe...

Time to time a hit of Ginseng....

Actually ,i havent caught a cold or had the flu in years...i cant remember the last time ..as you know, Hawaii is visited by millions all year ..bringing in all kinds of bacteria...i have been blessed..not catching a cold...but prevention of a cold is good to have a strong immune system pre-embedded into your body....always excercise..
eat well....rest....no stress....and wash your hands , simply, cover your mouth when you cough......If your going to be around sick people,,,,"airborne" works wonders..Use a humidifier to add moisture to the home...i add green tea to mind...


Keep healthy happy..positive x[+]x......

when i stuck by cold i adopt some precaution. take hot liquid, gargle with hot salt water, don't go out side of my home. however if i do not recover then go to clinic for further treatment.
