Answer 2

For sore throat, gargle with diluted grapefruit seed extract works for me. It has anti-bacterial and disinfectant properties. You can get better faster from the cold by not taking cold medicine...they are just the cover up, you might feel better when you're taking it but it doesn't make you healthier...instead you should rest and drink lots of water. Echinacea and Elderberry tincture helps, vitamin C...Also aerobic oxygen, it is a oxygen supplement. I find that it almost feel like stop the cold when I take it at the very beginning of the cold. You can get them at health food store.

Answer 3

For your sore throat, hot liquids. Hot tea with agave nectar is good. Hot soup, preferably a thin broth. A hot shower will clean your sinuses out nicely. Lots of vitamin C helps, as does Emergen-C powdered mixes. They have several flavors of 1,000 mg vitamin C mixes. And get plenty of rest.

All it will really do is make you feel better while your body works the virus out of your system.
