So after returning from Vegas the partying and lack of sleep has me feeling like crap. I have a stuffy nose, sore throat, and that cold-like all around icky feeling. I'm well enough to go to work, although it's not the most fun. But question is, what can I do to kick this crap fast as possible? I'm going to a concert tonight (and no I'm not missing it, paid way too much and love the music too much to miss) and don't want to feel like all cold-ish and sickly. [Help]

This. The first combined with the 2nd. [Tooth]

I just drink a gallon of OJ, get lots of sleep and drink lots of water. Supplement with the vitamin C Vitamin Water too.

Drink lots of water. Seriously. Enough that you need to piss like every 30 min. Maybe mix in a little powerade too for the electrolytes, but only in a 60/40 water/powerade mix.

I'm going to try a combination of all of the above- I'm going to take a bunch of vitamin C and zinc, follow with a gallon of whiskey and lots and lots of OJ and Vitamin water.... wait, make that 2 gallons of whiskey, just to be sure.

But seriously, thanks for the advice guys. I've been drinking a fair amount of liquids (the vitamin water and regular water) but should probably up the ante and I already took an Advil Cold and sinus and a Mucinex 12-hr 600mg earlier. Now onto get my hands on some more vitamin C and start the chugging of water.

Read the vitamin water, make sure the ingredients aren't SUGAR.

there is a powder mix comes in a lue box called Emergen-C, individual packs, different ingredients for different stuff, there's 1 for your symptoms.

I prefer Vitamin C and getting up an doing stuff. Once I sit down or lay down it just makes it worse.

I try not to lay down at all unless I go to bed.

Eat a raw onion, do a double-shot of wheatgrass juice, mix a couple shots of apple cider vinegar in concord grape juice and slam it down, have a quart of good Hot & Sour soup from the best cheap Chinese place in town (the expensive places under spice and add sugar).

Avoid: sugar, dairy, grease, and cigarettes.

That's the plan I usually stick to... that and chase some of the symptoms away with cigarettes and Irish Whiskey- that's what kept my Grannny and Grandad kicking into their 90's.

Everytime I feel myself getting sick I just buy a carton of OJ and drink that throughout the day. 60% of the time it works, everytime.

Sounds like a rhino virus. Saline spray up the nose, wash the mucous out. Rhinoviridae is the "common cold". If you have access to "colloidal silver" , put some in a nasal spray bottle and use that. Colloidal silver is small particles of silver dissolved in water. Virus's and bacteria hate silver, it screws up their reproduction.

Took me a week and a half to get over the crap I caught out there when I stayed for a week. Nasty stuff going around that town, in more ways than one I'm sure. [ROFL1]

Lots of water, lots of vitamin C (I like to use Emergen-C packets, 2-3 a day), echinacea tea is also good, some exercise always helps me sweat it out. Alchohol and cigarettes and stuff like that will lower your immune system. I read in a health book that a single glass of wine lowers your white blood cell count by HALF. Spirits will be worse.

where do you aquire colloidal silver?


I make my own colloidal silver. Distilled water in a glass, two pieces of .9999 fine silver wire, laboratory grade! Two wires with alligator clips on each end. One 9 volt battery. Let the wires set in the glass of water. Each wire connected to the battery terminals. The electricity flowing through the water liberates silver molecules. The water turns gray after about 6 hours. Filter the water through a coffee filter. Pour the colloidal silver into a nasal spray bottle.

.9999 pure silver wire from ebay



Or buy it here:

Or google "colloidal silver" for lots more info.

Here's a cough syrup recipe I found awhile ago in one of my mom's old cookbooks:
1 cup whiskey
1 cup honey
Juice of 2 lemons

Mix it up, drink it down, and you'll forget all about your cough. And maybe what you did the night before. [Beer]

It's meant to be taken a teaspoon at a time every few hours, but all at once would definitely take you out!

Vampires hate it too. You run it through the ventilation system when you want to break a 'daywalker' out of their heavily guarded compound. [LOL][ROFL3]

I heard an interview with a doctor who had studied colds and flus for something like 20 years. He said all you can do is take an antihistamine to help dry up your nose and sinuses and tylenol or advil to help with the aches and pains. He said you can spend a lot of money on "cold" or "flu" medications or the new miracle cure to shorten the symptoms but nothing is going to help any more than antihistamines and pain killers.

If whiskey cant take care of it then you will most likely be bed ridden for a couple of days. Whiskey should kill most anything, including my night!!!
