Always get a flu shot, but homemade chicken noodle soup is a great remedy, and if it's just a cold, use Zicam, it really does cut the colds in half

Drink lots of water and clear liquids. Maybe some rice or toast. Tylenol, and lots of bed rest. A cold, or the flu will eventually run it's course.

I wouldn't exactly call this a remedy, but this should help:
1)Lots of water
2)Lots of hot liquids, especially teas, lemon and honey, or bouillon. I usually use beef.
3)Extra vitamin C
4)zinc lozenges for the cough
5)Lots of sleep!
Good luck!

GET YOUR FLUE SHOT!
But for both, take 1000mg or more of Vitamin C. It won't hurt you cause you get rid or it in urine. I regularly take 500 per day. At the first sign of cold I up it.
Next, hot tea, lemon and honey and plenty of water and rest.
