It won't cure the cold but it last as long, and you will feel better.

You can find the extract at a heath food store and the cough meds at any drug store now.

1 shot whiskey
honey to taste
squeeze of lemon
hot water to fill

Sniff, sip and sleep....feel better!

Thanks!

Although I replace the whiskey with Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum. I drink my whiskey neat.

I add butter and nutmeg..... Great on a cold winter's day!

Mr. Bear isn't much of a soup maker but he'll go for pho any time. Thanks.

A tablespoon mixed in water. You can use hot water or cold water, whatever your preference. I like to add a spoonful of honey to it as well. Drink it down. Doesn't taste too terrible.

Elderberry syrup works well, too, if you have it.

Feel better!

Merci!

I usually keep it in a thermal carafe to enjoy through out the day.

Oh and, about the ginger . . . grade just a bit of the fresh root into the blend.

tea.

Get ginger root, peel it and cut it into chunks (maybe a 1-2 inch knob of root would be fine), put it in water and microwave (or pour hot water over the ginger).

Let "steep". Add some lemon, honey to taste. Some people also add cayenne pepper ...

That's the way we do it.

Zinc and Vitamin C, heating pad and children's films do it for me

By using Zycam. It was gone for a couple of months. It came back but I understand I am not the only one who reacts that way.

and LOTS of water and sleep!

But I feel righteous and it couldn't hurt!

and put on a pair of socks. Here's hoping you get a good night's rest and feel better in the morning.

Lol! I'll bet the vapors alone chase cold bugs away.

if you can get it down. drink 3 gallons of water to flush out your system

When I was sick, one of my Facebook friends suggested honey with cinnamon. I think it was effective.

powder. The oregano oil needs to be medicinal grade available in health food stores. Oregano oil and reishi are said to have powerful antiviral and antibacterial properties. They seem to shorten the worst of the symptoms for me. But nothing cures a cold that I know of.

Thanks!

Your body is fighting the invader, let it. And never take cough suppressants, even if your throat hurts, as your body needs to get rid of all that mucus. Cough suppressants just make that process take a lot longer.

How would you feel if your therapist had coughing fits? LOL! I do just use the honey/lemon/Echinacea ones though. And shut up.

Repeat as needed.

Lemon-ginger tea is also good for colds.

Hope you feel better!

Honey seems to be the overall favorite. It's in everything!
