I drink OJ mixed with 7up. My wife thinks I'm crazy, but she now drinks it when she gets a cold. I'm going to try that Bau's Rice Soup next time. Sounds delicious to me, I might try that even when I'm not sick. The wiskey has never worked for me, but it never stopped me from trying either

MissyP:What is everyone's preferred method for dealing with a cold?
(Yes I have one
I'm letting it run its course, but I'm miserable in the mean time :439:
Chicken soup!
It's got all sorts of great stuff in it (onion, garlic, chicken, etc.) and it's all hot and steamy, which helps to clear out your head.
You can try my secret recipe if you like
It's also tasty when you're not sick and even better if you can stay in bed and convince someone else to make it for you.

Zinc lozenges and vitamin C.
The zinc really does help, it's not just one of those herbal remedies.

Sleep, and lots of it! I've got a cold right now too, but I can't seem to get a good night's sleep for the life of me. Going to work isn't helping either!

I hear ya... Thats where Nyquil comes in handy.. :sleepy:
Prevention is the key.
As soon as I feel a cold coming on, I load myself up with vitamin C and Echnicea with goldenseal. Make myself a hot bath to soak in, and drink hot ginger root tea, then off to la la land. Repeat.

For me I just take some over the counter cold medicine, no home remedies here. What always makes me feel just a little better is to take a hot shower, wrap up in my favorite robe and have a cup of hot tea w/ milk & sugar. I hope you get to feeling better.
