Is there any way to get ahead of a cold before it hits you fully?!

Question: Is there any way to get ahead of a cold before it hits you fully?

Most of the fam's sick with this nasty cold and I was hoping to avoid it but I've been feeling a little under the weather this evening and getting the same symptoms as they have, ie chills, sore throat, nausea, etc. Not a really big deal but I just don't want to get fully, like in bed sick like the fam. Is there any way to get ahead of it? Like drinking tea, plenty of sleep, fluids? Stuff like that? I've missed 17 days of school aleady and I really don't want to miss another day of school for something stupid like this. ><

Bump up your vitamin C intake and try not to be around them as much as possible. Nothing much you else you can do, really... just, if you DO get it, make sure you do take a day to rest because, well, people are often neglectful of that. Rest makes all the difference and it really helps. :b

What I do is, when I start feeling sick, I try to relax. I pamper my body with a nice warm bath and some lotion afterwards, maybe burn a candle and just relax to some music. If I still dont feel good, I clean every inch of myself. Get your nose, and ears,and eyes, anything you can possibly make really clean, Do it. And then I'll take some medicine and drink some water or juice for the rest of the night. And I havent been sick since!

Almost never sick
