Benji0687 Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 So last night I helped a buddy get his garage organized before the cold weather comes, and I woke up this morning with a full blown head cold. I figured since SMD has some pretty smart people on here, maybe we should get a thread going with any tips/tricks, recommended medicines or other remedies to get over a cold as quickly as possible. Also, any ideas how to make your symptoms as tolerable as possible. So anyways, any ideas guys? Thanks!

skittlesRgood Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 (edited) my mom takes air-born and swears by it. i just take a couple vitamin C pills (something like 400% daily value) and the cold never seems to get very bad.

Torres Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 zinc is good to help boost your immune as well. more as a preventative thing tho. also when you start feeling your throat start getting sore, gurgle salt water. or even regular water if you can't get salt water. kills something like 75% or more of the germs i was told Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benji0687 Posted November 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 hahaha if only they had a Bud Light D I'd be set! Have any of you tried Zicam? I had a few people tell me that it helps shorten the length of your cold but its pretty expensive, so I thought I'd ask before dropping over 10 bux on trying something new.

bumonskateboard6 Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 Coldeez, and airborne are both good for getting over it, and in all honesty this might sound weird but take a 20 minute shower alternating cold water and hot water every 5 minutes. Basically a virus needs a stable body temperature to multiply, you get a fever because your body is naturally trying to change the temperature to make it not a stable environment for the virus. Taking a shower alternating cold and hot can often make your body temperature vary just enough to stop the virus from getting a hold on you.
