Getting past colds, and flu.

[brownchild]

It's seems it's that time of year again. Everyone seems to be catching a cold. Im sitting at home on a sick day, so I thought I should start a thread about how to get rid of colds and flu's the natural way. Everyone who knows natural remedies, and natural cures for the common cold and flu, pls post.

The only ones I heard so far are, fasting to speed up the immune system, and taking garlic pills and apple cider vinegar.:dunno:

Chicken soup? Works for me.

Glutamine
Glutamine
Glutamine

I have a HIGH intake of glutamine its about the only thing that keeps me from getting sick, builds your immune system up and helps your recovery that much more in the gym.

I would say over 30g/ED would be good dose.

I started getting a cold this week, and I quickly took cold FX. 3 pills 3 times a day. Along with a vitamin c, and cranberry extract. And I had a couple drops of colloidal silver. Was gone the next morning.

Sleep like crazy. Stir honey in hot water with a couple lemon slices. I love it so much I drink it even when I'm not sick. :thumbsup:

we have sent men on the moon but there is still no real way of getting rid of colds quick enough.

cold FX worked for me the first time, but now my body is immune to it now :thumbsdow

just think of all the money drug companies would loose if they cured the common cold.

I use Buckley day and night cold tablets, nothing natural about them, but they make me feel almost normal.

Cold is constantly mutating... sending a man to the moon with a comparison with sickness is like pitting a back yard mechanic against a factory team like ferrari with alonso driving on an F1 course

Every time I get sick I have to rely on a different type of over the counter drug. Buckley's, Day-Ny-Quill, Cold FX, Contact, Benylin don't work for me anymore. Sudafed cured my last sickness almost over night.

I agree that sleep is imperative. When I'm sick I can lay there all day. And drink lots of water!

I take one Cold fx everyday and when I feel a cold comming on I take three. I hven;t had a cold since I started doing this 1.5 years ago.

I usually get sick at least once every summer


This summer I was crash dieting and binge drinking every night all mixed together.

I supplemented multi vitamins, glutamine and ecinacia (sp?) Never got sick even though three of the people at the same cabin got sick
