There's no cure for a cold.

Alternative or normal medicine.

Treat the symptoms. Paracetamol (pain relief and fever control)

Honey and lemon drink (sooth your throat)

Decongestant (ease your nose & sinuses)

Bed and a video. (feel better)

Couple of days you will be felling better anyway.

Get well soon :)

No. I like the people here who are deluded enough to claim that random foods and spices cure cancer. If that was the case wouldn't cultures that eat large amounts of those things have lower cancer rates? Take Tumeric, for example. It's a main spice in Indian curry and apparently helps cancer. If so it must be a completely minuscule amount of help because Indian people seem to have no advantage in cancer rates compared to countries that don't eat a lot of tumeric. If you want to know about cancer and alt med just look up Hulda Clark.

Let your food be your medicine and your medicine be your food. Ancient Greek Philosopher Hippocrates said this and it is just as true today as it was long ago.

Spicy bell peppers, garlic, citrus and I could go on and on... Block the Rhino Virus which is the cold virus.

Medications/drugs only mask symptoms, to make your life more comfortable as you get over your cold.

Let's give credit where credit is due:

"It is the body and only the body that cures itself with the proper nutritional tools."

If you are not eating right, are stressed, are bombarded by toxins in the environment, you are more susceptible to catching a cold or flu. This is why more often than not, flu shots don't work!

Hot tea with ginger and honey is a good start. Ginger is as much for the stomach as the respiratory system. You may be better off with mullein tea, works great for respiratory illness. Still honey is also a biggee. .. add it to your tea, or just take a teaspoon of it. Natural antibacterial.

Also, Vit C and A are good for viral issues. Chicken soup really does do wonders. I always make it for my kids at the first sign of a respiratory illness.

Also, cut out all refined sugars! They are immune suppressants and will counteract any good that other interventions do. Natural sugars are okay. Especially avoid high fructose corn syrup (in most sodas, many cereals, and lots of crackers) as well as refined white sugar.
