post your cold remedy ideas

[Misternatural 0]

I went to a college house reunion last weekend, lots of beer and no sleep. At one point,looking around in a drunken haze, I noticed that the place was overrun by other peoples wheezy children. They were everywhere, like ants - running around putting their snotty hands all over everything. I'm pretty sure one of the little urchins sneezed on me. i was doomed- I loading up on the vit C but it did not fend off the alien virus from across the country.

So I found myself mixing up all sorts of things the past two days so I can function and my head does not feel like it's full of wet concrete.

What are some of your remedies?

Good Burbon, on the rocks.

Once you've got it it's got you, (I.E. You're f*cked until next time.)
Next Time:

1) The MINUTE you start to feel the first symptoms coming on, grab a bottle of megadose C, the biggest Zinc tabs you can find and some Echinacea

2) Take 1000mg of C Per Hour, Each Hour, for 3 Hours. Yes, that's 3 full grams of Vitamin C. (4 if you're a more ample dude.)

3) Over that same period, down 2-3 Zinc tabs, and 1-2 doses of Echinacea

4) Repeat the next day if you still feel the funk coming on.

*Keep something in your stomach and partake of NON-ALCOHOLIC fluids, as this amount of C will take a toll on your gut. (Depending on your constitution, you may want to stay close to some sanitary facilities for a few hours.)



I've sworn by this process for years, and have seen my colds reduced in number and from 10-12 day suicide-pondering ordeals to 3-4 days of feeling a little like ass.

Fortunately I have a steam room, sauna, and hot tub at my house. I do 1 hour in the hot tub, 1 hour in the steam room, and then insted of going to bed I sleep in the sauna with heat on max. seems to help get rid of the cold much quicker.

Tequila and optionally honey and lime ..... Or was that Tequila and a Honey ?

That is very close to what I do. It works great. If I catch it immediately (1st sign of scratchy throat) it sometimes barely gets any worse. It always shortens it to no more than a couple days. Amazing.

I got this "remedy" from wife, who, as a fitness instructor had no time for illness in her schedule. Works right thru her colds, no sweat. Well, lots of sweat, but no sweat.

Excercise. Show that bug who's boss. Otherwise the best suggestions in this thread are tequila, bourbon, and adult films. The rest of this shit is just new age hooey.

>> have a few shots of tequila and watch some adult flicks...

mmm booze mixed with porn sounds good, and more fun than Nyquil and re-runs of Who's the Boss.

Sweat it out. Plenty of fluids.

Cold meds just subside the symptoms.

Be yourself!

Zicam. The nasal swabs are quick and easy to do. Follow the directions and you'll notice a difference in a day or two. The stuff is incredible at stopping the plague from getting worse.

ZICAM! Seriously I love that stuff!

Other than that, try to be preventative by getting outdoors a lot when the weather gets cold (avoiding the germ-infestation of warm rooms), eating lots of fresh produce, drinking water, etc. Echinacea may help, but some studies say it doesn't.

I'm also a fan of Zicam. I also drink lotsa OJ and eat peanut butter when i'm sick.

>>Zicam
sounds good-
I hope that helps with my obvious germaphobia issues as well.

I do spend most of my time working outside,I'm going to give it a try and bundle up tomorrow, not fun with a hack but at least I don't have to yell at anyone.


>>peanut butter and OJ??
Does that taste as bad as orange juice and toothpaste?
how about Pineapple juice Sunny

Prevention is the best, I say stay away from the public if you have a cold and I will try to return the favor.
Also washing any booger encrusted little kid or adult hands helps
-and sleep. Nighty night you skymasters you.

It's not too bad, i promise!! I sit down with the jar of peanut butter and the carton of OJ. Get a scoop of peanut butter outta the jar (and yes, i use a spoon) eat it, and chase it with some OJ.

I think car exhaust would help better with the wheezing.
