Answers:
Lemon juice!. Pour a glass of hot water with several slices of lemon!. Or, tea with lemon if you prefer!. Use green tea though, it has the antioxidants you need in it!.

When you're well, drink lemonade made from real lemons!. It will keep you from getting sick!. Or, you could do what I do and drink regular water with slices of lemon in it!.

I don't know why it works, but it does!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

chicken noodle soup is the best known, and it really works! you can take echinacea, vitamin C or oregano to boost your immune system!. take zinc tablets, or a spoonfull of honey for a sore throat!. make yourself a lemon-honey tea (lemon juice, spoonful of honey, and a pinch of cayene pepper, and fill the mug with hot water!) lemon juice helps clear your sinuses, so does the pepper, the honey is good for your throat, and the heat is soothing!. always suck on something, whether cough drops or just a candy!. It gets the saliva going and helps a sore throat!. get lots of rest and drink lots of water! :)

Avoid milk and orange juice!. They both increase mucus production which can make a cold seem that much worse!

hope that helps! take care!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Tons of water!. Tons!. Its a pain but it always cuts my recovery time in half!.

Don't eat anything greasy, it makes u feel icky and I think it makes your body work harder when you don't need to!.

Tea with lemon juice and honey!. Helps sore throat, works great for me and always has!.

Pills and meds don't help you get better, they help you deal with the symptoms!. I usually down more cough syrup then I should, but it doesn't improve your health!.

Good luck and feel better!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Skip the cold tablets, that will dehydrate you!. Instead try the following:

Hot tea w/honey, fresh squeezed lemon juice/pulp (tons of it), fresh grated ginger (tons of it)!.

Drink several cups of this stuff along with taking liquid echanicia to boost your immune system and you will knock-out this cold in a day or two!.

Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
