Some colds seem immune to it, but I've found it works most of the time. I am not feeling well enough to go to the gym, but just about everything else is within easy grasp. ;)

normally by this time of year I'm suffering from at leat my 3rd case of bronchitis/larengitis. This year I have been drinking mega doses of Green Tea 8 to 10 cups a day both iced and hot. I have had absolutely no colds (knock on wood), no bronchitis and I haven't lost my voice once.

5. Try this--it sounds much worse than it tastes |
|
This sounds awful, but everyone who has tried it thinks it lessens both the duration and severity of cold symptoms:
Garlic Tea Recipe
In a large saucepan, bring 3 cups of water and 3 cloves of garlic (cut in half) to a boil. Turn off the heat when the water boils, and add 1/2 cup of honey and 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice. Strain. Sip 1/2 cup, warm, three times a day. Refrigerate extra to use the next day.

9. I got a cold in January, then pinched a nerve in my neck... |
|
which lasted for about 3 weeks, and now I have another cold. I'm starting to forget what "well" feels like :cry:
