Take airbourne every 4 hours, it contains many vitamins for a boost of immunity.
Drink lots of liquids too, orange juice has a lot of vitamin C.

Don’t catch a cold, it’s the best cure, but if you have caught a cold, use Dayquil or Nyquil.

You gotta keep warm, and keep drinking water, to keep you hydrated. Also hot chocolate will do the trick! And also some cold medicine.

get off the computer, it strains you eyes. take a nap maybe, rest for the rest of the day, keep drinking OJ, stay hydrated, just relax for the rest of the day, you may feel better by tomorrow.

Rest and if you are of age. Drink Hot Tottys
Hot tea, with lemon, shot of whiskey and honey.

put hot water in a bowl, get a towel, put the towel over your head and put your head over the bowl…about 15 cm…vapor action!

Well, try to make sure you wear socks and always wear warm clothes.Take medicine that will control your cold, and the cold will settle a little! Merry Christmas, and get well!

You just have to let the virus run it’s course. You can’t ‘cure’ it.
The vitamin C trick is bunk. It’s a water soluble vitamin and when you inundate your body with it it all ends up in your urine and in the toilet.
Squirt some nasal saline spray up your nose until it runs down your throat a few times a day. That will help flush out the infected mucus in your respiratory system.
Don’t use cold medications. They just suppress your immune system and thwart your body’s attempts at ridding itself of the virus.

hot tea, theraflu is amazing, if there is cough use cough drops, if you have congestion use pseudophed and vicks to rub on your chest, cough drops will supress the cough enough so you aren’t coughing all the time, and ry to stay dressed warm.

Take a decongestant, a pill for the headache, and then eat healthy and take a long nap to kill the cold and increase imuninty to the cold season. Good luck and have a wonderful Christmas!

Take airborne (the tablets you place in water and they boost your immune system) and find this stuff at your local drug store its called cold-reduce (or if your really bad, try flu-reduce). It comes in a small asperin type bottle and they are small dissolvable pills you take one every 6 hours or so and they really do knock the cold outta you.

Fluids all day, alot of it. Especially water.
And take Zicam as directed if you want to shorten the time you have the cold.

Rest, Chicken Noodle Soup, or Cup O Noodles, be sure they are steamy hot. Don’t burn your mouth.
Clean your toothbrush or replace it pronot.
A Listerine rinse, gargle. Add a 4 tablespoons water to 1 tablspoon of the Golden Listerine. Might be able to find it at the trial/travel size section store.

drink lots of soup, and wear lots of warm clothes in a warm room and sleepsleepsleep like a koala and ofcourse those cough/cold drops something from the phsrmacist for a cold…

Get a Vitamin C supplement and take that. I take two 500 miligram tablets with a bowl of soup (with lots of vegetables in it) and I orange juice. Stay hydrated and rest as much as possible. Drink lots of tea with honey and lemon, preferably green tea. If you have a sore throat, have a tablespoon of vinegar every couple of hours. If you have a humidifier, than sleep with that on. Take hot showers and breathe in the steam. Good luck! I hope this helps a little and I hope you get better.

Take at least 8 glasses of water.See if it works?

orange juice

Start taking echinacea. Not only will this speed curing the cold, but if you keep taking it for a year or so you won’t get another one. When you haven’t taken it for several years, take it for another few years. It’s so much better than vit. C.
