Ugg. Start off with a bad head cold and love to get rid of it by Thanksgiving. What do you all suggest? Thanks

Echinacea, or a hot bed to cook it and sweat it out.
No I don't mean THAT sort of hot bed. But it couldn't hurt.

I have found that Alka-Seltzer Plus cold medicine, the effervescent tablets, really help me! I take just one in a little bit of water at night because it makes me really drowsy.... next day Iā€™m feeling better drinker

I hope you find the right meds for you and feel better soon! flowerforyou

never found anything but time fluids and rest to be a remedy

but to deal with the symptoms and keep functioning then i use the store brand nyquil and dayquil

Thanks all. Hmm hard to choose. Nyquil i tried last time and didnt help. I will try the Alka Seltzer. Didn't know they made a cold remedy. Thanks Dee

Strong black tea with nothing in it along with not eating alot. Just light meals and maybe a snack. For me it clears up quicker doing that.

Have 6 to 12 oysters. It will certainly help but it wont be like a magic fix, unless you are deficient on zinc, that is.

Vitamin C is one thing I recommend. Orange juice, grapefruit juice, V8 it's all loaded with it.
:chicken: noodle soup is another. Use the hot broth to clear sinuses and have something yummy to eat. Win win!

Up my daily dosis of Vitamine C and take Echinaforce more often during the day. I do this the moment I feel a bit of a cold come up and keep doing that for as long as needed. I'm hardly ever ill (knock on wood) while I see other go down again and again.
Also, keep yourself warm at all times and if it's shite weather and I'm already a bit tired, I don't go out.
But esp Echinaforce. Has gotten me through winters without illness for decades.
