Does anyone know the best way to get rid of a cold?!
Question: I have found that as soon as i feel a cold coming on 1st I always gargle with salt water. Get a coffee cup cover the bottom of the cup with the salt so you can't see it, then put as hot water as you can handle and gargle with ONLY 3 TIMES pour it out, DO NOT RINSE AFTERWORDS
as your day goes by any little cough or sniffle SPIT IT OUT do not keep sniffing or swallow, all this does is keep packing that mucus and makes your cold worst. Take ALKA SALSA PLUS cold med. rub VICKS VAPOR RUB on your chest and neck, put a shirt on as to cover the vicks, I don't know how or why but if you follow these directions as you rest for at least 1 day even if your throat don't hurt still do it. You will be amazed how fast you can get better. GOOD LUCK

Vitamin C and LOTS of water. Rest.
Mother Nature will do it. Just ride it out and drink plenty of fluids and rest.
I don't think you can get rid of the cold virus, it has to take it's course, but you can do things to make yourself feel better.
I like to make homemade chicken soup.
Boil chicken thighs or legs in a large pot for about an hour with salt, pepper, garlic powder and sliced onion and bring to boil.
Add cut cabbage, tomato, potato, sliced carrots and 6-8 small ears of corn- let boil on medium heat until veggies are tender.
Serve with maybe some spanish rice or just squeeze some lemon juice!
Enjoy and hope you feel better!
