What's your secret to battling a cold? Plenty of orange juice? Tons of Nyquil until you sleep it away? Homeopathics? Zinc? I've had one for a couple days... the best thing for me has been Mucinex and my big box of puffs, along with some popsicles for the sore throat!

Feel better! - feel better
I take zinc pills and have at least two cups of hot echinacea tea a day. I've heard that the product Airborne works well for helping prevent colds and medicating an already existing cold. Sorry you feel so crappy...feel better soon!

I take Nyquil and rest. Drink orange juice and hot tea with honey and lemon too. Most of the time you just wait it out while do those things.
