cure for the common cold? clambakesX: Drats, it's Sunday night and my throat is scratchy and sore. I can't afford to have a cold this week, I have a big presentation on Tuesday and other ongoing projects I can't get behind on. :-[
I've eaten several kiwis and drank a glass of orange juice, and am going to get into bed soon.
Any other tips?
Re:cure for the common cold? cosmochick222: very unconventional but i eat lots of ice cream (rocky road) then sudafed tablet or tylenol pm. it knocks me out and i feel better the next day. it used to be my mom's chicken noodle soup but she's across the miles ....
Re:cure for the common cold? AmyMarie1972: I find that alchol helps. At least it takes your mind off the cold anyway!!!!

Re:cure for the common cold? Lilsara: This sounds gross but...warm salt water. Gargle with it to make your throat less scratchy. And (using different warm salt water may I add) snort it or spray it up your nose. It will get a lot of the yuck out. I also heard that zinc tablets although they taste kinda yucky will help the cold go by quicker.
GET WELL!!!!
