  I can't be sick right now, yet I'm getting sick. I'm currently laying in my bed and drinking lots of water, what else can I do to get better as soon as possible?

  i found that garlic+C and Horseradish tablets helped with the symptoms as well as litres of water. also, lemsip max is a personal favourite.

  A really hot chilli or curry with lots of garlic and lemongrass.

  Honey and lemon tea with ginger.

  A little pocket-hockey too. (just because you can).

  • yep, the honey and lemon tea is a saviour.– airey1/2

  also, no dairy. or at least cut the dairy. it aids congestion which in turn puts more strain on you plus i'm sure the little bacteria bastards breed like tiny rabbits in dairy!

  Airborne...which mainly consists of zinc and vitamin c. Zinc has been proven to shorten the duration of the common cold. I'm a believer.

  Or take a bunch of laxatives and drop it like it's hot.

  • i like both these options.– airey1/3

    haha– designbot2/3

    LAXATIVES FIRST and then wait awhile... otherwise the zinc will just shoot right through and out the back.– Amicus3/3

  take pure echinacea extract, that might do it - and will boost your immune system and help keep you from getting sick in the first place.

  I started taking a multivitamin everyday a few years ago, and never really get sick anymore. Other than that, Cold-Eeze are pretty good. They're like cough drops, but with zinc, gluconate, and glycine.

  And sleep.

  a quick-fix is to decapitate yourself. messy but does do the job and think of the fortune in multivitamins you'll save.

  Vitamins and Minerals. And weird sounding herbs from the amazon or southeast asia.
  Seriously the minerals will help alleviate any cramping, muscle soreness, vitamins will make you feel better, and the weird sounding herbs will keep tribesman in business (hopefully). just make sure they are organic.

  If everyone around the world feels better, then the universe will stop treating us all like crap.

  The brain is our best healing mechanism. Picture your white blood cell count growing and then defeating the dastardly cold virus thingies. That should do the trick, as long as you believe it will

• _salisae_

  i've found that if you treat yourself to the things you have when you are sick you greatly reduce your chances of getting sick. i.e. spicy thai soups, miso soup, seaweed salads, steamed rice, lots of water, keep caffeine, sugar and salt to a minimum, get some sunshine and fresh air and take a walk every day. i also take a lot of vitamins and herbs but those are specific to my needs.

  anyway, best of luck to you.

  • sensible and brilliant as always... too bad I hate spicy food and I'm sadly allergic to seaweed.– Amicus1/2

    oh that is sad– _salisae_2/2
