Had one a couple of weeks ago - used that Zicam stuff, and drank grapefruit-juice-and-vodka. Thing cleared up remarkably fast.

Sounds stupid, but chemically it works. Gargle with salt water, and sniff a drop or two (of salt water) in each nostril. Do this twice a day, in the morning, and before you go to sleep.

The salt essentially makes a toxic environment for viruses/bacterium. This works better as a deterrent to getting sick in the first place, but it does help to shorten a cold after infection.

Moonshine thickened and sweetened by sugar and your favorite fruit. I like the peaches. I bet if you warmed it up a bit (like the brandy), it would be even better...

Do this to clear your sinuses.


I like to make a hot brandy. Check this one out:
