Val (Zebedee) Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 I am full of cold and wondered if anyone has any tried & tested cold remedies they rely on? I have tried Lemsip drinks, capsules, Benedryl tablets & leaving it to go on it's own! I'm just entering week 3 of sneeze city!! A girl in work said try Echinacea .... any recommendations?

stormchaser09 Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 COLDS: Those suffering from common or severe colds should take one tablespoon lukewarm honey with 1/4 spoon cinnamon powder daily for 3 days. This process will cure most chronic cough, cold and clear the sinuses. Don't know if this works but worth a try, I usually just add it to warm ater and drink it.

sutsibe Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 I haven't found anything that truly works, sorry! Sleep, along with good amounts of vitamin C seems to help - I feel like the product "Airborne" helps - I do believe that it has Echinasea in it... Don't know if it's available in the UK or not!

Karren Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 I had a flu jab and now have a very sneezy cold! I always take this when I have a cold... Potter's Elixir of Echinacea - it feels warming and if you like licorice type things you may like it. Not sure if it does any good but echinacea is supposed to boost your immune system so???? I always wonder if it has alcohol in but maybe that iss just because my head is swimmy from the cold? http://www.boots.com/en/Potters-Elixir-of-Echinacea-135ml_38948/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
