Hello,
I normally cook something with loads of garlic and chilli (not that I need an excuse);)

eat loads of fresh vegetables, if youve got a juicer make some carrot, orange and apple, get some pure eucalyptus oil, put a dab on your scarf

works for me

theres loads of natural remedies on here

absolutely nothing at all except plenty hydration and a good walk in the day to early evening... makes you feel just right for a good sleep getting a proper rest so starting your body cycle.. as in re-booting yourself. by the third day you'll be right an' sorted. (if no appetite make soup)

pay attention to your overbreathing and try to reduce it

I find that plenty of alcohol and cigarettes help mask the symptoms, so if you can fit in a 3-day bender, your illness will just merge into a monster hangover that can be shaken off with a good nights sleep.

EDIT: Or soup.

try dropping some menthol crystals in a bowl puting a towel over your head and inhaling for a few minutes

keep warm take baths etc the higher your bodys temperature, the quicker your body will fight it

enjoy, read books dvds,stay in bed ,sleep etc its a good chance for your body to recharge

Olive Leaf extract cuts down the duration by about 3-4 days.....and sucking back some liquid grapefruit seed extract mixed in with manuka honey and a little lemon juice kills the ugly bugs in your throat.

Zinc lozenges are good too.

I would wager the symptoms you are experiencing are a build up of mucus perhaps from overeating of wheat products, dairy products or cakes/sweets, I have done a few experiments whereby I have given myself a "cold" through the OVEReating of cakes, biscuits breads etc and found the most effective means to clear the symptoms are hot peppers (birds eye/Scotch bonnets) raw thrice daily, cooking onion and 2 Clove Garlic raw, added to green leafy salad once daily, Cayenne pepper, two teaspoons in a mouthful of water thrice daily, or a simple two day fast!

It is important also to realize how the Colon is more than likely in a filthy state and look into ways of cleansing this aspect of the body;s drainage piping, enema, fasting, herbal formulas, intestinal broom formulas etc, there is alot of info on the net!

Warm Soup does it for me :)
