I seem to get colds CONSTANTLY. Are there any good herbal treatments or one certain vitamin that will help?

Take a multi-vitamin (mega dosing on individual vitamins doesn't work)
Exercise at least 30 minutes a day (make sure you get your heart-rate up--this increases the oxygen in your body, which helps your immune system)
Drink lots of water
Eat lots of dark green vegetables.
Make sure that you also get 8 hours of sleep and that you sleep between the hours of 10 PM and 2 AM if possible, which are shown to be important to immune function.

Exercise and a healthy diet. Cut out beef (don't listen the USDA) beef really is bad for you.
You might try drinking green tea every day. Also, coffee has natural antioxidants.
If you keep getting sick though, you might want to go and have your allergies checked...There may be something in your living environment (mold/mildew) that could be contributing to your health issues.
Do not use Echinachia on a regular basis if you are planning on having children. Excessive use can cause lower fertility rates (especially in men).

Well echinacea assists your immune system as does vitamin C.

you have to detox your body first. Hes what you can do...
Call your pharmacy and tell them, more then likely he will tell you that they have some vitamins that will help do that, all the toxins have to come out and then you should be ok.
But call the drug store first..they will help you.
God Bless & Good Luck

Elderberry extract, and extra vitamin c maybe stop smoking if you do. I am a health nut. I am kind. I know a lot.

My Grandmother (god rest her soul) always told us to play with the dirty Mexican kids next door she told us that it would build up our immunities.
