What's your favorite home remedy for a cold?

Echinacea and Vitamin C. Of course, you really should take echinacea before you are sick. If a cold takes hold, Tylenol Cold seems to help symptoms, but I'd rather ward off the sickness in the first place!

My goal is to never catch one. I use saline nasal drops everyday and haven't had a cold in four years. Try the drops maybe they will clear the cold up before it gets set in. Then use them daily from now on.

I rarely get colds now. Like everyone else, I used to get them all the time. Lucky me, I now get sinus infections instead.
Crazy as it sounds, I use a menthal-liptus type losenge when I feel a sinus infection coming on. For some reason it usually stops the infection. They taste awful, but I'm glad to suffer through the taste for a day or two - beats the heck out of a sinus headache/infection that won't clear without antibiotics.
Vitamin C/orange juice doesn't help me at all. It just gives me nasty cankor sores and fever blisters. Guess I'm extremely sensitive to it.
Feel better!
