What is your favorite Cold remedy?

My friend swears by a shot of wild turkey and a whole garlic clove. I've tried it and it seems to work. My uncle in TN makes cough syrup with whiskey and honey and other secret ingredients. I'm not so sure if it works. When my nose is stuffy I go to Winghouse and get fries with a side of "House on fire" sauce. It clears me right up.

My grandma always have told me to drink hot tea with lemon and honey. It really helps me.

I would have to Thermaflu is great, it always works great for me.

If I feel one coming on then I take Vitamin C and Echinachea, and this seems to wart it off. If it comes on all the sudden then I like to use the Alieve Cold and Sinus tabs, those seem to keep it in check til it runs its course.

I usually take Vicks Nyquil to help me with colds. I have both the daytime drowsy and nightime bottles of them. Echinachea doesn't seem to work for me but the Nyquil certainly helps.

I use advil cold and sinus medication

Since I take meds for high blood pressure, I haven't been able to find any cold remedies that work I can take with it. My solution to this problem has been to quit having colds. I haven't had a cold for about 4 years now, and I hope to continue in this pattern. I think teachers develop immunities from being around so many germs.

I drink hot tea with lemon and honey and I make a pot of home made chicken soup. Works well for me.

I take Codral ffrom the chemist, it helps with the nose, chest and throat, and can also help shorten the length of the cold. I'm not sure what the main ingredients are, something like pseudoephedrine, but I think they've actually changed it because too many people were breaking into chemists to steal all the cold tablets to make speed, I had a lady ask me once why I was buying such a big box, looking at me really suspiciously lol I said because it's cheaper!

i dont have any home remedy but Clarinase/Clarityne always work for me..it will depends on whether i have running nose or not..i forgot which is for which. but i like it that i can take the tablets without feeling drowsy for side-effect

alot of people like to sweat their colds out but i like to keep vicks vapor rub on my chest on under my nose and drink alot of hot cocoa.

COLD AND FLU: Here is a delicious recipe for a cold and flu soup: Sauté 6 crushed cloves of garlic in 1 tsp. vegetable oil until golden. Pour in a quart of beef or chicken stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and whisk in 2 egg whites. Beat together 2 egg yolks and 2 Tbsp. distilled white vinegar; pour this mixture into the soup. Season with salt and pepper and top with croutons if desired

I think it would be possibly 30 or 40 years since I've had a cold, so I can't personally recommend anything, but I do know what works for a number of friends. A Chinese man told us to add a heaped teaspoon of grated ginger to a mug of Coke, and boil it in the microwave. My friends love the drink and say it works wonders for their colds.

I have a cold remedy that beats them all.. the only thing is that it is painful..it stings/burns.. I take peroxide and put it in my mouth and then blow it out of my nose....yeah its grows and its painful but it works the fist time and I dont have to wait a week or two with a cold ..if I get one one day i get rid of it the same day....the reason it works so well is because ONE peroxide disinfects the infected areas and kills off germs and virus' TWO, peroxide oxygenates the blood which increases all antibodies within the body ..makes them super antibodies...and was even known to kill the HIV virus..ofcoarse the only place to get this cure is to go to i believe mexico now...the doctor was banned in the usa for using it and successfully curing almost every single ailness with just using a measured dose of peroxide...its now banned in usa for use because its the only thing that really works..also if you want to replace penicilin use garlic cloves.....it was the very first antibiotic used and has never failed...why penicilin then ..pharmacutical money maker

I personally don't use cold remedies anymore i find thaat they don't work for me they just make me feel worse longer!

I prefer Hot Lemons they work wonders for me and also Night Nurse

i take chicken hot and sour soups/i use hotwater and put some vicks balm and inhale it.it really works out

I usually just do vitamin C or wait it out. I have had some success with echinachea helping guinea pig immune systems (under veterinary supervision), but I'm not sure if it has really ever helped me. Now I've got a cold and next week I have two very important finals. I'm going to try more than just vitamin C.

The medicine that works best for mine is Nyquil and Claritin D.

try using potato chips when you have a sore throat...then we used liberally during the time.... mint, garlic, garlic, garlic, ohion, hot peppers, chicken soup, KFC chicken, ground ivy (creeping charlie), teas, and so we basically dose ourselves to health! Good luck!!
